Discover the news about the future of Hearthstone given by Mike Donais during a stream with his daughter.
Wild Mode
- A nerf of the Big Priest might happen. If it does, it will be centered around Barnes
- SN1P-SN4P is not really played in Wild mode, so no nerf should be necessary
- Naga Sea Witch was nerfed (even though the winrate of the decks that were using it was not that high) because losing against this deck was too much frustration according to developers.
- Mike Donais plays a lot of Wild Mode and his favourite deck is a Reno N'Zoth Mage
Funs & Other
- More light effects around the cards could appear in the future, such as a red light around the E.V.I.L cards, but nothing is confirmed yet.
- A heroic card featuring Bob the Bartender could be created.
- Darkness could be removed from the list of possible servants in cards summoning a random servant such as Evolve or Sneed for example.
- George could become a new alternative hero skin
- New Quest cards may appear one day
- A new game mode could emerge
- The team has a special button in their offices that reproduces Ben Brode's laugh when it is pressed.
In the next Hearthstone patch, iconic class cards like Vanish and Mind Attack will go to the Hall of Fame. Ten new cards will be added, between neutral cards and a few other cards with strong identities.
