Battlegrounds Season 5 is Here!
Competitors throughout Azeroth are gathering in the Tavern for a gladiatorial contest to earn the favor of the Titans and their keepers. With over 30 new minions, 7 opponents, and slew of new Anomalies to master, the competition has never been fiercer!
On August 22, Battlegrounds Season 4 will end and Season 5 will begin. That means rankings will reset, Battlegrounds Quests will be removed, minion pools will update, and the Battlegrounds Track will switch over. All rewards that were earned from the Season 4 Track, but not yet claimed, will automatically be claimed.
New Gameplay System—Anomalies
Battlegrounds Season 5 introduces a chaotic new seasonal system: Anomalies! Anomalies are game-changing effects that are randomly set at the start of each game. All players in the game get the same Anomaly for that game.
Anomaly appearance rates vary, with some more common than others. Some minions, minion types, and heroes won’t be offered if a particular Anomaly applies to your game. You’ll know your game’s Anomaly when you’re picking your hero.
Anomalies at Launch
There will be an initial pool of Anomalies at the Season launch, and then new Anomalies will be added to the pool each week throughout Battlegrounds Season 5. The following Anomalies will be available from the beginning of Season 5:
Prudence of Amitus Unspent Gold carries over to your next turn. If you saved at least 5, gain 1 extra. Anti-Gravity Stadium Minions in the Tavern have their Attack and Health swapped. Might of Khaz-goroth At the end of your turn, set your left and right-most minions' Attack to the higher of the two. Fortitude of Khaz-goroth At the end of your turn, set your left and right-most minions' Health to the higher of the two. Money Match Start at 10 Gold. Denathrius’ Anima Reserves All heroes are Sire Denathrius. Uncompensated Upset Start at 1 Gold. Minions cost (1) but sell for (0). Upgrading the Tavern costs (2) less. Secrets of Norgannon Tavern Tier 7 exists. Start with 10 extra Armor. Transient Treasures At the start of your turn, choose from 2 new Quest Rewards. Nguyen's Shifting Disks All heroes are Master Nguyen. Bring in the Buddies Buddies are in the Tavern. Oops, All _______! This Anomaly has a version for Beasts, Pirates, Dragons, Elementals, Mechs, Murlocs, Naga, Quilboar, Undead, and Demons. What it means is that only that minion Type and Neutrals are in the Tavern for that game. When this Anomaly is active, the number of each minion in the pool is increased to fill out the Tavern: 5x the number of each minion of the selected Type and 2x the number of each Neutral minion.
Oops, All Pirates! also has one extra adjustment: Cap’n Hoggarr is added to the minion pool. Yaharrr!
A Faire Reward Instead of a minion, Triple Rewards Discover a Tier 1 Darkmoon Prize. (Upgrades in 3 turns!) Finicky Hourglass Start at Tavern Tier 2. Packed Stands The Tavern always has 7 minions Double Header The first time you buy a minion each turn, get an extra copy of it. Echoes of Argus Your Battlecries and Deathrattles trigger an extra time. False Idols You only need 2 copies of a minion to make it Golden. Instead of a Triple Reward, get a Gold Coin. Grapnel of the Titans The first minion you buy each turn is free. The Golden Arena ALL minions are Golden, but you do not get Triple Rewards.
Dev Comment: This includes cards that are Discovered or generated by other cards.
Anomalies Coming Throughout Patch 27.2
Additional Anomalies will be added to the Anomaly pool each week throughout Patch 27.2. When Anomalies are newly added to the Anomaly pool, they’ll have an increased appearance rate for that week. The additional Anomalies coming throughout Patch 27.2 are:
Big League Only Tavern Tiers 3, 4, 5, and 6 exist. Little League Only Tavern Tiers 1, 2, 3, and 4 exist. Everything’s On Fire! At the start of the game, take 30 damage. Whenever another hero dies, regain 5 Health. Dev Comment: This is fine. Wisdom of Ulduar At the end of every 3 turns, set your right-most minion’s stats to 15/15. Overseer’s Orb After you upgrade the Tavern, Refresh it with minions of your most common type. Perfected Alchemy Start with a “Goldenizer” that makes a friendly minion Golden. Blood of Sargeras At the start of your turn, set your hero’s Health to 12. Mimiron’s Clockwork Stadium You cannot upgrade the Tavern with Gold. It upgrades itself every 2 turns.

Some Heroes have high winrate disparities between lower-MMR and higher-MMR players.

Any Hero that only lists one Armor amount has the same Armor at all levels of play.

The Season 5 Battlegrounds Track, with the Season Pass, features 40 levels of rewards, including 5 Legendary Hero Skins, 12 Epic Hero Skins, 6 Rare Hero Skins, 6 Epic Emotes, 8 Rare Emotes, and Epic Bartender and a Legendary Strike!

Hearthstone Updates
New Special Set: Caverns of Time!
The Infinite Dragonflight is trying to go back in time and change the way the Battle of Ahn’Qiraj went against the Old God C’Thun. The fate of the world—and the true timeline—hangs in the balance! It’s up to you to hold off their attack... or join them instead...
Caverns of Time is a new type of Hearthstone expansion, including card reprints, new cards, and some new card cosmetics! It’s also Hearthstone’s first-ever direct-to-Wild expansion, meaning that the cards in it will not be legal in Standard (and can be balanced towards Wild). Caverns of Time launches on August 31, and it includes 147 cards: 113 buffed reprints* and 34 brand new cards!
Caverns of Times packs can also include special Signature versions of other iconic Wild cards. Keep an eye out for a dedicated Caverns of Time blog, coming August 22, with more details about the 34 new cards, the special Signature variants, and more.
* Duplicate protection applies for these reprints. So, if you already have (or disenchanted) the original versions, you won’t open them again in Caverns of Time packs until you’ve opened all new cards from that rarity.
Wild Card Updates
113 Wild cards are getting buffs with Patch 27.2! These are the cards that are being reprinted as part of the Caverns of Time set. If you already have the cards in your collection from their original release, they will be automatically updated with the patch. If you don’t already have the cards, you can still get them through all current means, or from Caverns of Time packs once the set goes live.

Be sure to catch The State of Wild podcast on August 17 for an exclusive developer interview with Matt London and Chadd Nervig to discuss these changes and more.
Kean-eye readers will note that two of the 113 cards aren’t listed here (wow, we can’t believe you counted all of them, that’s commitment). The two missing cards are more akin to “reworks” than “buffed reprints,” so they will be revealed in the August 22 full explainer blog.
Twist Official Launch
Twist is back! On September 1, at your local ladder reset time, we’ll be kicking off the first official season of Twist. This season will feature the Wonders format, a fun throwback format celebrating the early years of Hearthstone. It includes all expansions from Legacy (not Core or Classic) through Mean Streets of Gadgetzan, plus the new cards from the Caverns of Time set, launching on August 31. That means the legal sets will be:
- Legacy (not Core or Classic)
- Curse of Naxxramas
- Goblins vs Gnomes
- Blackrock Mountain
- The Grand Tournament
- The League of Explorers
- Whispers of the Old Gods
- One Night in Karazhan
- Mean Streets of Gadgetzan
- Caverns of Time
There will be no Demon Hunter or Death Knight classes in this season of Twist, as they didn’t exist during the Wonders era. There’s no special rules modifier for this first Wonders season—the Twist is that you get to use the buffed cards and the brand new cards from Caverns of Time! You can learn more about Caverns of Time and this new Twist format in our dedicated Caverns of Time blog, coming on August 22.

Duels Updates
With Patch 27.2, the following card pool adjustments will be made:
- Thundra Rhino, Anub’Rekhan, Seafloor Gateway, and Mister Mukla are banned from deckbuilding and all card pools.
- Symphony of Sins is banned from deckbuilding.
- Solid Alibi and Cloak of Shadows are removed from draft buckets.
- Caverns of Time cards will be added to all card pools.
Once Caverns of Time launches on August 31, it will be added to initial deckbuilding as well. There will not be a season change with any of these updates, so ongoing runs will continue and ratings will be preserved.
Bug Fixes and Game Improvements
- [Hearthstone] Updated Disciple of Eonar’s text to indicate it works with Choose One cards or hero powers. Fixed a bug where, if it buffed a Choose One hero power, the aura would not be spent after the hero power was used.
- [Hearthstone] Fixed a bug where cards that reduce their own Cost were able to cost less than 2 when Razorscale was in play.
- [Hearthstone] Fixed a bug where Titanforged Traps didn’t cast off “cast a random spell” effects. It now offers Hunter Secrets to classes that don’t have Secrets.
- [Hearthstone] Fixed a bug where Chameleos and Disguised K’thir did not count as copies for Harvester of Envy.
- [Hearthstone] Fixed a bug where Fate Spitter wouldn’t create a copy of a hero card if killed by that card’s Battlecry effect.
- [Hearthstone] Updated the Core Priest deck recipe to replace. Crimson Clergy with Beaming Sidekick. This resolved a bug where that deck couldn’t be played in Practice or other adventures that use the Wild card pool (where Crimson Clergy is banned).
- [Battlegrounds] Your “Last 5 Warbands” stats page will now show your hero with your equipped Hero Skin, instead of always the default skin.
- [Battlegrounds] Zesty Shaker, Critter Wrangler, Tidemistress Athissa, and Kel’Thuzad’s Kitty (Hero Power) now use “When” or “Whenever” instead of “After” timing.
- [Battlegrounds] Fixed a bug where giving a Divine Shield minion a temporary Divine Shield with Glowscale’s Spellcraft effect will then remove that minion’s original Divine Shield the next turn.
- [Battlegrounds] Fixed a bug where Dynamic Duo wouldn’t receive in-combat buffs from its effect.
- [Battlegrounds] Fixed a visual-only bug where Humming Bird plus another card that adds stats would display the wrong number.

- [Duels] Fixed a bug where hero Health was not displaying on the pre-match loadout for Duels and Dungeon Run style solo content.
