New Hearthstone Patch Arrives Just Ahead of Next Expansion

April 5, 2017 by Kris Kittie

New bug fixes pave the wave for the newest expansion’s launch.

This update lays the groundwork for the upcoming Year of the Mammoth, which starts on April 6th, when the newest expansion, Journey to Un’Goro comes out. It adds a new Rogue hero, Maiev Shadowsong, although she is not playable until the expansion arrives. Once it does, you will need to win 10 standard ranked or casual mode matches to get her.

Today’s update for Hearthstone introduces behind-the-scenes groundwork for the upcoming closed beta launch for Fireside Gatherings Tavern. It introduces a new UI element in the form of a tooltip that shows the number of cards in your hand, while the patch also gives Android users the option to download the game’s data directly to an SD card when starting for the first time.

There will also be a number of bug fixes released with today’s Hearthstone update. A full rundown of these fixes is listed below, courtesy of Blizzard.

Bug Fixes

  • Jade Spirit will now correctly appear in searches using the term “Jade Golem.”
  • When Herald Volazj copies a silenced minion, the copies it creates will now correctly also be silenced.
  • Resolved an issue that would make it impossible to cast a spell that costs Health to kill your Hero, even while immune.
  • Resolved an issue that would cause casting a 0 mana cost Jade Blossom to still sometimes consume mana.
  • Nozdormu’s sandstorm visual will no longer persist if he is returned to a player’s hand.
  • Resolved several minor UI and graphics issues.

Journey to Un’Goro will add 135 new cards to collect, including Quest cards. These are one-mana cards that provide you with a mission to complete over the course of a match for a big reward.
