Patch 29.2.3 is a server-side patch, now live with the following updates:

Battlegrounds Updates

  • Heroes now have a Duos Armor level, distinct from their Solo Battlegrounds Armor levels. For most Heroes, their Duos Armor level is 2-3 Armor lower than their (higher ranks) Solo Battlegrounds Armor level.
  • Duos turns from turn 7 onwards are now slightly longer than before.
  • Mechs will be reactivated in Battlegrounds after this patch has rolled out.

Bug Fixes

  • [Hearthstone] Fixed a bug where Alexstrasza’s Battlecry effect didn’t work properly with life-total adjusting effects (like Azerite Snake and Vampiric Blood).
  • [Battlegrounds] Fixed a bug where Golden Scrap Scraper didn’t function properly.
  • [Battlegrounds] Fixed a bug where Utility Drone didn’t function properly.
  • [Battlegrounds] Fixed a bug where Persistent Poet didn’t function with Blood Gems.
  • [Battlegrounds] Fixed a bug where Persistent Poet didn’t function on dual-type Dragon minions.
  • [Battlegrounds] Fixed a bug with Orc-estra Conductor and Rylak Metalhead working wrong for your teammate in Duos games.
  • [Battlegrounds] Fixed a bug where using Jandice Barov’s hero power on a minion affected by Suspicious Stimulant made that minion then unable to be bought from the Tavern.
  • [Battlegrounds] Fixed a bug causing game crashes.
  • [Collection] Fixed a bug where Diamond cards weren’t offering re-rolls since Patch 29.2.

Fix your horrendous battlematchup and your f up bad RNG , I want to play for fun , win some games , lose some games not getting disheartened by some bullsht combos while losing 6-8 games in a row , whilst wining one or two games and getting bombarded by a turn 5-8 turn of the game served on a platter to some players that hit the nuts, make the game fair not a turn 5-8 game winning , in 3-4 years of bgs your system is still the same! bad matchups , bad rng and stupid highrolls , fix your sht Blizzard or let Microsoft do it !

When we can finally see Adventure fix? Since 29.2.2 patch Book of Mercenaries Varden’s story on 6/8 6 puzzle impossible to complete fix 5 mana Snowfall Graveyard for this puzzle only make it 3 mana.

good job fixing the alex exploit.

next, perhaps fix the incredibly broken state of warriors?
nerfing boomboss, brann, or any of the 19 other incredibly useful cards they’re allowed could at least make them playable without making them auto-win.

EDIT: The 6/8 puzzle in the Mage part of Book of Mercenaries story mode adventure is still broken.
You literally just have to change the available mana to 2 more, if you don’t have the capacity of changing a card.

return old preparation or return old Snowfall Graveyard will fix it

Ran into a weird bug today when playing Whizbang (some of who’s decks is in dire need of a buff btw, 17% overall winrate on the Deck of Villains for instance).

Up against a Death Knight who used Maw and Paw on turn 4 and got a total of 10 health from it. At turn 8 he played Primus and ate my Lor’themar Theron for another 7 health.

Then at a later turn he played Screaming Banshee into Headless Horseman, eating one of my minions - and spawning a 17/17 soul from the Screaming Banshee which I assume is the health that he got from Maw and Paw and the Primus earlier. I then proceeded to swiftly lose the game (along with some courtesy emote spamming from my opponent).
