All Battlegrounds cards are available from the beginning.īattlegrounds is significantly different from all other constructed play modes in Hearthstone, featuring completely different mechanics from anything previously seen.
Like Mercenaries, Battlegrounds has a set of cards totally unique to itself (although many are functionally identical to collectible cards) as well as a pool of specialized heroes. Combat Phase has minions automatically attacking the opponents' until one player (or both) has no minions remaining, at which point the victor attacks the loser. The Recruit Phase lets players purchase and sell minions, upgrade the tavern, use their hero power, and rearrange their minions' attack order. For the cosmetic maps games are played on, see Battlefield.īattlegrounds is a game mode where eight players face off in 1v1 rounds, with the goal to be the last player standing.
