Hearthstone Battlegrounds patch 28.2
As mentioned, the new patch will involve a slew of new Tavern spells and minions. The Tavern spells, in particular, will be a new mechanic in Hearthstone Battlegrounds. True to their namesake, you'll be able to buy these spells directly from the Tavern itself.
You can learn more about how this new mechanic works in Hearthstone Battlegrounds through our Tavern spells guide.
Don't forget about all the new minions and their synergies. A few examples of these minions include Land Lubber, Rodeo Performer, and Disguised Graverobber. As for the Season 6 Battlegrounds Track Refresh, we've got you covered in terms of that as well.
According to Blizzard, Hearthstone Battlegrounds Season 6 will have 32 minions, 42 new spells, plus three new heroes. These heroes will be Doctor Holli'dae, Snake Eyes, and Tae'thelan Bloodwatcher. They all go with the current Showdown in the Badlands theme in the Standard game mode.
"We’re also bringing back [five] returning minions and removing 33 existing minions to make room for all these new recruits," according to Blizzard.
