Quote From Blizzard Arch-Villain Rafaam and his band of misguided miscreants have navigated the capital city of Dalaran across the world and have arrived in the land of magical mummies, treacherous tombs, and sand-swept horizons – Uldum! While their ultimate goals are still shrouded in mystery, their disastrous doings in the dunes have unleashed devastating plagues on the land. Now it’s up to the League of Explorers (and you!) to stop the League of E.V.I.L. from reaching their nefarious goals.
Read on for details on everything that’s new in the tavern, and what’s included in the Saviors of Uldum expansion!

Card Changes
New Crystal Core Implementation
We have updated the functionality of the Rogue quest reward Crystal Core in order to address some inconsistencies. This new functionality also applies to Dark Pharaoh Tekahn’s Battlecry effect.
- After Crystal Core is played, the base copies of your minions will now have 4/4 stats. The stat numbers will appear as white, instead of the green text indicating a buff. This means that if your opponent steals or silences your minion, it will remain as a 4/4.
- Additionally, minions currently in play will receive a onetime effect that sets their stats to 4/4, overriding current enchantments and clearing damage.
- Some interactions will change under this new functionality. Cards that create a copy of a minion with specifically stated stats (Sonya Shadowdancer, Prince Taldaram, Barnes, etc) will now work as written on the card text. For example, the minion summoned by Barnes will be a 1/1, instead of a 4/4.
Arena Rotation
With the launch of Saviors of Uldum on August 6, the active Arena sets will be updated to the following:
- Basic
- Classic
- League of Explorers
- Journey to Un'Goro
- Kobolds & Catacombs
- Rastakhan's Rumble
- Saviors of Uldum

The following Card Backs have been added to the game:
- Year of the Raven: Acquired by winning 5 games in ranked mode during the August 2019 season.
- League of Explorers: Acquired by pre-purchasing an upcoming Saviors of Uldum solo adventure bundle.
