If you're a devoted follower of Hearthstone, Blizzard's hit World of Warcraft-themed card battler, you're in for a treat. Battlegrounds Season 10: Second Nature is set to go live on April 29th, followed by the exciting new Embers of the World Tree mini set on May 13th. Both updates promise to mix up your matches with new minions, card types, and other fresh additions.
The theme for Embers of the World Tree centers around the Druids of the Flame attacking this ancient monument. Both the Druids and the opposing Dream Defenders will benefit from new Imbue and Dark Gifts mechanics, with the Druids wielding Fire Magic to set your opponents ablaze!
A standout feature of the mini set is the introduction of Smouldering Cards. These cards gain strength the longer they stay in your hand, but beware—they'll flame out and disappear if you hold onto them too long. Strategic timing is key to maximizing their potential on the battlefield.
Enter the Battleground
Beyond the mini set, Battlegrounds Season 10: Second Nature brings its own set of thrilling updates. Trinkets make a return, offering passive power-ups on Turn 6 and Turn 9 for lesser and greater trinkets, respectively. Dive into the wild with two new heroes, Cenarius and Buttons, who will harness the power of nature to aid your cause.
The season also expands the minion pool with over 75 new and returning characters, alongside Tavern spells. For the completionists, the Season 10 Battlegrounds Track is packed with new themed cosmetics to enhance your collection.
