Hearthstone Patch Notes - 4.2.0.12051
Posted on 14 March 2016
With this Hearthstone patch, Whispers of the Old Gods becomes available for pre-purchase!
There’s a lot of other cool stuff in this patch as well: players can now enjoy Hearthstone in Thai, we’re making several improvements to the Collection Manager, and we’ve added UI elements to pave the way for the new upcoming formats. There’s also a new Hero and new card backs to earn--oh, and we’re fixing some bugs too!
Read on for details!
General
Pre-purchase Whispers of the Old Gods
Pre-purchase a “Whispers of the Old Gods” 50 card pack bundle from the in-game shop and unlock a special card back. Whispers of the Old Gods packs cannot be opened until the expansion launches, which will be before May 31, 2016, however, the card back is available immediately!
Unlock up to 18 deck slots!
Gain access to 9 additional deck slots by unlocking all nine Hearthstone Heroes, bringing your total number of deck slots to 18.
If you’ve already unlocked all nine Heroes, your new deck slots are waiting for you in the Collection Manager: just delete or edit the Basic decks you’ll find in your deck list.
Many improvements have been made to the Collection Manager.
Deck Recipes are now available in the Collection Manager. Use Deck Recipes to quickly experiment with some new deck ideas.
Right-clicking on card backs in the Collection Manager reveals an improved display. So fancy!
When building decks, the “Suggest a Card” feature is now smarter about its recommendations.
It is now possible to search for cards with new search terms, including Attack, Health, Cost, Golden, etc.
A more complete listing of all the new functions will be revealed in an upcoming blog.
We have begun preparing for the arrival of Standard and Wild formats with new UI elements.
The following Hero portrait has been added:
