Card set

The card set interface

The subject of this article is due to undergo upcoming changes and will be updated soon. For details, see Patch changes section.

Card sets are the major categories into which all collectible cards are divided into. Card sets consist of all expansions, adventures, and mini-sets, the two core sets of Basic and Classic, the Hall of Fame set, and the Demon Hunter Initiate set. Card sets reflect how collectible cards can be obtained, and they also determine whether collectible cards can be used in Standard format.

In Standard format, only the card sets from the first two Standard years are allowed for building decks. A card set rotation occurs every year at the beginning of April in which the card sets from the oldest Standard year are removed from Standard play. In Wild format, however, the other main game format, all card sets can be played.

List

As of Darkmoon Races, there are 24 card sets containing 2,801 unique collectible cards in Hearthstone.

Categories

The main distinction between card sets is whether its cards are usable in Standard format or in Wild format.

Card sets can also be divided into more specific categories:

• Basic cards are the first cards players get in the game, received through the starting experience and leveling. Basic cards are permanently part of the Standard format.
• Classic cards are the vast majority of the cards that were available to collect at the launch of Hearthstone, forming the initial core of the game together with the Basic cards. They too are indefinitely in Standard format.
• Expansion cards are cards added through expansions - for example Goblins vs Gnomes, The Grand Tournament and Whispers of the Old Gods. Expansion cards released in the last two calendar years are part of Standard, while earlier cards are in Wild.
• Adventure cards are cards added through adventures, for example Curse of Naxxramas, Blackrock Mountain, The League of Explorers and One Night in Karazhan. Similar to expansion cards, they may be in Standard or Wild format based on the calendar year their adventures were released.
• Mini-set cards are cards that are considered to be part of an existing expansion and can be obtained through that expansion's card packs, but were added later and have a different watermark.
• Hall of Fame cards contain all cards formerly in the now-defunct Promo and Reward sets, as well as a few cards from Classic moved for game balance reasons. They are now collected and played as Wild format cards.
• Demon Hunter Initiate cards are a handful of cards added to the Year of the Dragon to support the new Demon Hunter class added in the Year of the Phoenix.

The sets could alternatively be categorized by the way players obtain their cards:

• Basic cards are uncraftable and are obtained through accumulating experience and leveling classes.
• Classic cards and Standard expansion cards can be found through card packs of the corresponding set, crafting, as Arena rewards, or from Ranked rewards.
• Wild expansion cards are obtained through card packs of the corresponding set, purchased from the Shop.
• Adventure cards are earned by completing the corresponding adventure, or crafting once that adventure rotates to Wild.
• Hall of Fame cards can only be obtained through crafting.

For the purposes of the wiki, further categories can be realized for uncollectible cards:

• Boss cards are used to categorize cards used by bosses. While not collectible by players, they are encountered during play in Adventures and Tavern Brawls.
• Tavern Brawl cards are used to categorize cards used exclusively in Tavern Brawl decks. These are not collectible and are not featured outside of Tavern Brawl.

Basic

Main article: Basic

See also: Basic card list

Basic is a large, freely available card set, with 150 cards, 133 of which are collectible. Many Basic cards are neutral, available to heroes of any class. There are also 10 Basic cards exclusive to each class. The Coin is also considered part of the Basic set. Because of the nature of the game system, Hero Powers and even heroes themselves are also categorized as Basic cards, but are not counted in this total.

All Basic cards are of free rarity, except for a few uncollectible cards that are common or have no rarity. All free cards are in the Basic set. "Basic cards" and "free cards" are therefore almost, but not exactly, synonymous. All Basic cards lack the gem that normally indicates card rarity, leading to a common misconception that all Basic cards are free.

All neutral Basic cards are automatically included in players' collections. Five of the class-specific Basic cards are known by heroes as soon as they are unlocked; the other five are gained by advancing those classes in level. A new Basic card is granted for every two levels reached, up to level 10 in each class. All Basic cards are granted in pairs, enabling players to immediately include two of them in their deck if they so desire. Basic cards are uncraftable and therefore cannot be crafted or disenchanted.

A golden version of each Basic card can be obtained by leveling a specific class of hero to a certain level. Raising a hero of the correct class to the required level will 'unlock' the card, granting the player one copy of the golden version of that card. (The second golden copy of the same card is unlocked at a later level). Like the plain versions, golden versions cannot be crafted or disenchanted. While all class-specific golden Basic cards require a hero of the corresponding class to unlock, the required class for neutral cards varies.

The developers consider it important to keep cards from the Basic set relatively simple and their functions easy to understand. This allows newer players to get to grips with the game's mechanics before being forced to grasp the subtleties of cards in the other sets. In at least one case this has caused the developers to significantly change the function of a card in development, due to new players finding the function's subtleties too confusing.

The common rarity originally applied to approximately half of collectible Basic cards, identifying class cards that had to be unlocked by leveling up, and neutral cards that were not available until after the tutorial (with one exception, Goldshire Footman). However, the Year of the Mammoth changed these to be uniformly free. Among uncollectible Basic cards, common rarity still indicates tokens created by other cards, free rarity is used on cards created by Hero Powers, and The Coin and Excess Mana have no rarity at all.

Examples

Classic

Main article: Classic (card set)

See also: Classic card list

Classic (formerly known as Expert) is the largest card set, with 294 cards, 240 of which are collectible. It features 135 collectible class cards (15 for each class) and 105 collectible neutral cards. Classic cards can be recognized by the distinctive "Hearthstone swirl" behind the card text, not found on other cards.

As the larger and more advanced of the two "permanent" sets included in Standard format, Classic cards frequently feature as core cards in successful decks, and the developers constantly monitor the set's power to ensure it does not form too large a proportion of decklists, thus causing the meta to become excessively stale. As of early 2017 the Classic set is "the most powerful set by a wide margin".

Classic cards may be common, rare, epic or legendary.

Regular and golden Classic cards can be obtained in four ways:

• through opening Classic card packs;
• through crafting;
• as Arena rewards;
• or through the Highest Rank Bonus chest, for Golden cards only.

Examples

Expansions

Main article: Expansion

Card sets based on expansions are the largest sets after Classic and sometimes Basic, usually bringing around 130-150 new collectible cards.

Cards from Standard format expansions can be obtained through the same means as Classic cards:

• opening card packs matching the expansion
• through crafting
• as Arena rewards
• golden cards can also be obtained through the Highest Rank Bonus chest

Cards from Wild format expansions were once obtainable the same way, but now can only be obtained through crafting or purchasing card packs. Neither individual cards nor card packs are offered as rewards in the Arena, nor do they feature in the Highest Rank Bonus chest. However card packs for Wild format expansions are available in the shop and any card packs already obtained can still be opened as usual. (See also Wild format#Availability.)

For information on specific expansion sets, see expansion pages, e.g., Whispers of the Old Gods.

Adventures

Main article: Adventure

Card sets based on adventures are smaller than expansion sets, usually bringing around 30-45 new collectible cards. Five adventures exist in total:

• Curse of Naxxramas
• Blackrock Mountain
• The League of Explorers
• One Night in Karazhan
• Galakrond's Awakening

Cards from Standard format adventures can only be obtained through defeating their corresponding adventure wing, which will grant regular copies of the card. Once the player has obtained the regular version, they can then be able to craft and disenchant both the regular and golden versions of that card.

Cards from Wild format adventures can still be obtained through defeating adventure wings, but can now be crafted and disenchanted regardless of whether the corresponding adventure wing was defeated or not.

Mini-sets

Main article: Mini-set

Mini-sets are 35 card supplemental sets which continue the theme and mechanics of a previous expansion. Currently, one Mini-set exists:

• Darkmoon Races

Mini-set cards can be obtained from their parent expansion's card packs, or through a bundle which includes all cards from the set. For the purpose of Achievements and progression, mini-set cards are considered part of their parent expansion, although they feature a slightly different watermark behind the card text to differentiate them.

Hall of Fame

This section concerns content exclusive to Wild format.

Main article: Hall of Fame

Hall of Fame is a special Wild format card set, created on April 4, 2017 just before the start of the Year of the Mammoth. The set contains 22 collectible cards.

Cards are inducted into the Hall of Fame from the Classic, Reward, and Promo sets. Problematic, frequently-played, and design-hindering cards are moved to the Hall of Fame to remove them from Standard format. Cards were also moved to the Hall of Fame to eliminate the Reward and Promo sets. The developers state that, in the future, they will more likely move problematic Classic cards to the Hall of Fame, whereas problematic cards from other sets will be nerfed instead.

According to Yong Woo, if a metagame largely consists of decks with too similar cores and ideas, the development team will consider making changes to problematic cards found in such decks. Moving problematic cards into the Hall of Fame is one way in which a fresh meta can be ensured; however, it is not something that the designers plan to do on a regular basis.

Being Wild format cards, Hall of Fame cards can only be obtained through crafting. When cards are moved to the Hall of Fame set, they will be removed from their previous sets, and will no longer appear in card packs or be offered as rewards in the Arena, Highest Rank Bonus chest, or Heroic Tavern Brawl.

All Hall of Fame cards are pictured below. Full dust refunds were granted on April 6th 2017 for those cards that moved from the Classic set (and not the Reward or Promo set) to the Hall of Fame set, up to the maximum usable number of copies owned, preferring golden copies over regular copies. For details on how the past dust refund worked, please see Hall_of_Fame#Dust_refunds.

Removed sets

Reward

This section concerns content exclusive to Wild format.

Reward cards were moved to the Hall of Fame set on April 4, 2017 with the start of the Year of the Mammoth, effectively closing the Reward set. Reward cards were formerly two cards, Old Murk-Eye and Captain's Parrot, both of which were originally earned through completing certain unique quests.

• Old Murk-Eye was formerly rewarded for free upon collecting at least one of every Murloc in the Basic and Classic sets. Golden Old Murk-Eye was rewarded for free upon collecting at least one of every golden version of those cards.
• Captain's Parrot was formerly rewarded for free upon collecting at least one of every Pirate in the Basic and Classic sets. Golden Captain's Parrot was rewarded for free upon collecting at least one of every golden version of those cards.

The associated quests have since been removed, and Reward cards are now obtained through regular crafting, like all Wild format cards. For a list of associated removed quests, see Quest#Removed.

Promo

This section concerns content exclusive to Wild format.

Promo or Promotion cards were moved to the Hall of Fame set on April 4, 2017 with the start of the Year of the Mammoth, effectively closing the Promo set. Promo cards were special cards awarded as part of specific Blizzard promotions. The Promo set featured 11 cards, only 2 of which were collectible, namely Gelbin Mekkatorque and Elite Tauren Chieftain.

Golden Promo cards were formerly available to be obtained as part of their corresponding promotions; it is no longer possible to obtain these golden cards. Following their promotion periods, regular versions of these cards were uncraftable, but were later made available for crafting. Golden Promo cards cannot be disenchanted, but regular versions can. For the removed promotional quests that offered golden Promo cards, see Quest#No longer attainable.

• Golden Gelbin Mekkatorque was offered as a reward for beta testers who helped test the in-game store by making a real-money transaction during the game's beta test.
• Golden Elite Tauren Chieftain was available exclusively as a reward for purchasing a ticket to Blizzcon 2013.

Promo cards were created with a design in mind that they offered no substantial advantage to the owner, since the cards were exclusive and of limited availability. Rather, the cards were designed to bring more of an entertainment and RNG aspect into the game. This prevented Promo cards from becoming "must-have" cards for higher-level play.

Promo cards were notable for being the only card set not available in Arena picks.
