New Set Information

  • For a limited time after The Witchwood arrives, log in to claim three card packs and a random Class legendary card both from the expansion—for free!

  • Odds & Evens: Several minions in the set will reward you for building a deck using only even- or odd-cost cards.

  • New Keyword - Echo: Echo cards can be played multiple times on the turn you play them. Each time, it’ll add a ghostly copy of the card back to your hand that disappears at the end of your turn.

  • New Keyword - Rush: Minions with the Rush keyword can attack other minions immediately after they hit the board, either by being played or summoned. However, they cannot attack heroes until the turn after they enter play.

  • New Transforming Worgen Cards: Each turn they are in your hand, these cards swap their Attack and Health. Spring them on an opponent when their form best matches your desired function.

  • New Singleplayer Content - Monster Hunt: When you start a new Monster Hunt, you venture into the Witchwood as one of four unique new heroes exclusive to this game mode. Your goal is to fight through a series of eight ever more challenging encounters culminating in an epic showdown with a challenging boss fight. Each of the four new heroes has access to a special Hero Power and cards that create completely new playstyles and strategies. Their powers are great, but you will need all the help you can get against the Witchwood’s fiendish foes. After you beat an encounter, you choose loot to improve your Monster Hunt deck. Your choice is between three sets of three cards picked randomly from a number of different thematic buckets available to your current hero. Additionally, at certain intervals you get to add special cards to your deck that improve your unique hero power or otherwise synergize with your hero in a powerful way. The Monster Hunt will begin two weeks after the set's launch, and presumably allows you to win a cardback.

    I wonder if some / all of these odd/even cards will show up in Arena?

    The 6 cards that mention Odd/Even do not show up in arena.

    Yeah, I could see them possibly even sitting out of arena.

    Although it would be cool to have an "odd vs even draft" tavern brawl where you choose between the legendaries and then only get offered odd or even cards. I could see that being a fun arena style brawl

    All 6 of these cards will not be in arena.
