In today's 24.4.3 Hearthstone game update, Battlegrounds is receiving a few balance changes. This is a very minor patch due to previous balance changes in Battlegrounds being made via hotfixes that are outside of the usual patch release cycle. Players can expect to see a larger Battlegrounds update in the next major patch, 24.6.
