Hearthstone

Hearthstone has many alternate skins for both Constructed and Battlegrounds, and while some of them are mere variations over the base hero -- for instance, showing a hero like Uther sporting the Judgement Armor set from World of Warcraft -- others go much further than that.

Some games, like Diablo 2: Resurrected, Diablo 3, and World of Warcraft have PTRs where they can test their changes out, put new content up for players to interact with said content, and otherwise perform the Public Test that PTR -- Public Test Realm -- stands for.

Hearthstone Battlegrounds has changed in many ways since the introduction of Buddies.

Hearthstone's latest patch made a major revamp to the popular Battlegrounds game mode.

The battle for Naaru crystals pits Tavish of the Alliance against Rokora of the Horde in the Tavish vs Rokora Hearthstone Tavern Brawl.

A brand-new system called Battlegrounds Buddies is coming to Hearthstone Battlegrounds on January 25, and it may considerably shake up this  fan-favorite game mode.

They probably won't be here anytime soon — we know for a fact that some of Blizzard's biggest titles that are still in development, like Diablo 4 and Overwatch 2, won't be released in 2022.

Hearthstone esports is undergoing some major changes in 2022, and among them is one that definitely caught us by surprise: in addition to their typical Constructed decks events slate, Battlegrounds mode will get its own set of official competitive events as well.

It's been almost a month since Hearthstone Battlegrounds received a major new balancing element aimed at making the game more fair: the Hero armor system, where heroes who have what are considered to be "weaker" hero powers start the game with a certain amount of extra armor to compensate for that power discrepancy.

Hearthstone's newest expansion, Fractured in Alterac Valley, brings a new gameplay twist as one of its forefront features: the Honor system, which allows you to accumulate points to earn a variety of rewards.
