New cards, heroes and Hero Powers[]

UI changes[]

  • Various other changes have been made to the Collection: mana cost is now toggled on and off; the card set selector has been moved to the bottom left corner and reworked visually; and the positions of some buttons have been changed.
  • Card backs are now selected through the Collection instead of the Options menu. Card backs therefore cannot be changed without entering the Collection, meaning they cannot be changed mid-match or while in any other screen.

  • A new phone-only version of a default tip has been added: "You can add friends to your friends list with the button on the top left."
  • Two tips have been changed:
    • "If you win 500 games in Ranked mode with a class, you'll earn the its Golden Hero for that class.classic hero."
    • "You can unlock classic heroes by defeating them in Practice Mode.

  • LegacyShadow of Nothing no longer has the hidden trigger that destroyed itself at the end of the turn.[2]

Bugs[]

  • FIXED: LegacyExplosive Shot now deals all of its damage before running any on-damage triggers, meaning that new Whelps/Imps/Patrons won't be hurt. However, the minions are triggered in the order middle-right-left rather than in order of play.
  • FIXED: LegacySwipe now deals all of its damage before any on-damage triggers run, meaning that new Whelps/Imps/Patrons won't be hurt. However, the minions are triggered in this order: The one that was targeted, then all remaining minions in reverse order of play.[3]
  • FIXED: Non-golden LegacyBane of Doom will no longer summon golden minions.
  • FIXED: Rapidly clicking the "Disenchant Extra Cards" button will no longer cause the page to turn black.
  • FIXED: Clicking on your cards with Choose One effect with a targetter like LegacyWrath or LegacyKeeper of the Grove will no longer cause the cards to be displaced from their usual location and angle
  • FIXED: Receiving Secret and Fatigue damage by Coldlight Oracle or Blackrock MountainVaelastrasz the Corrupt's Hero Power (Normal/Heroic) will no longer cause the client to hang
  • NEW: Healing inverted by LegacyAuchenai Soulpriest does not trigger On Damage triggers, such as LegacyAcolyte of Pain.[4]
