Hearthstone just released “Maw and Disorder,” its Mini-Set for the Murder at Castle Nathria expansion. Patch 24.4, which came with the new bunch of Hearthstone cards, also added new content for the Mercenaries game mode, a new Arena season, and minor updates across the game.
“Maw and Disorder” continues the whodunit theme of Murder at Castle Nathria with a set of courtroom-esque cards. Sylvanas has been accused of being responsible for the anima drought, where she will stand trial against the Jailer of Shadowlands infamy.
Sylvanas and the Jailer are two of the new Legendary cards found in the 35-card Mini-Set along with Defense Attorney Nathanos and Prosecutor Mel’tranix. Players can pull these cards from Murder at Castle Nathria packs, or they can buy the complete 66-card playset from the store for 2000 gold or $15. Alternatively, players can shell out $70 to get the entire playset in its Golden version. Click here for the full Hearthstone 24.24 patch notes.
In addition to the new card Mini-Set, Hearthstone is adding another sizable update to its Mercenaries mode. It is adding 19 new bounties to the game spread across three zones, 11 of which are located in the new Darkmoon Troupe zone. Additionally, players can collect 14 new mercenaries for their collection. Powerful Warcraft mages like Khadgar and Medivh, Fel and demon characters like Prince Malchezaar and Archimonde, and Genn Greymane–the first Worgen mercenary–are all available in Mercenaries packs.
In celebration of her return in the “Maw and Disorder” Mini-Set, Sylvanas is also returning to the Battlegrounds hero pool in this patch. The Duels and Arena modes have been updated with the new cards, with the latter also beginning a new season, including a new rotation of available card sets. Hearthstone is also revamping its early progression system by setting new or low-ranking players against AI opponents occasionally to help them rank at low levels. And, as always, Hearthstone added a slew of cosmetic options to its shop and implemented several bug fixes.
With “Maw and Disorder,” Hearthstone has seen its last new cards until the announcement of its third and final card set of the Year of the Hydra. Likely to come this winter, the last card set of the year is currently unknown. However, a credible Hearthstone leaker claimed the set is Undead Scourge-themed set, and would add the long-awaited Death Knight class. Players will have to wait until a formal announcement to see if these rumors have any truth to them.
Hearthstone is available now for mobile and PC.
