Hearthstone Patch 24.6 – New Arena Rotation, Dual-Class Event

Posted on by Nox

Together with all the novelties introduced by patch 24.6, the Arena game mode will see a new rotation, together with the usual Dual-class event.

Here is all the information about this Arena-exclusive event:

  • Dual-class Arena is already live and will last until December 6th.
  • The eligible sets will be all those released from Classic through League of Explorers.
    • Kind of an old style Dual-class Arena event, for our nostalgic players out there!
    • For this reason, you won’t get the modern Core Set, but instead you’ll be offered the old Basic and Classic sets.
  • If you pick Demon Hunter, no DH cards will appear in the deck draft!
  • Any unfinished runs will be retired.
  • If you left a run unfinished, you’ll be able to claim your rewards and a Tavern Ticket.

For completion’s sake, here are all the card sets that have a chance to appear during your draft:

  • Basic
  • Classic
  • Curse of Naxxramas
  • Goblins vs Gnomes
  • Blackrock Mountain
  • The Grand Tournament
  • League of Explorers

Here’s the official post explaining what’s coming to arena (recapped above):

When Patch 24.6 goes live, all current Arena runs will end, and Hallow’s End will come to Arena! Dual-class Arena is back, and this time we’re kicking it old school. The eligible sets will be all sets from Classic through League of Explorers, and that’s it! No modern cards. But there’s a catch—Demon Hunter is still in the game. If you pick Demon Hunter, you could end up with the Demon Claws hero power, but no Demon Hunter class cards will appear.

Dual Class Arena will last until March of the Lich King launches on December 6. The eligible card sets during this period will be:

  • Basic
  • Classic
  • Curse of Naxxramas
  • Goblins vs Gnomes
  • Blackrock Mountain
  • The Grand Tournament
  • League of Explorers

Note that this throwback event uses the Basic and Classic sets, not the more modern Core Set.
