Extreme lag in battlegrounds

Hi,

Im receiving extreme lag and slowness while playing battlegrounds. If I have 100 seconds I can maybe do 6 actions. Also getting disconnected once in a while. I havent had these problems before the new patch. Will there be any fix? Does anyone else have the same problems?

And the next game after this post I didnt lag at all. I dont know whats going on.

Losing games due to this extreme lag. Duration is during the entire game. All of it is laggy on an unplayable level.
Even if I am about to win a game the client crashes (over and over) and somehow I wound up losing!? That’s like, not even close to where I was supposed to be placed at post-game.

The game seems confused and laggy, also doesn’t register that I won the game and automatically places me at a losing spot instead.

Seems like some Hearthstone systems are malfunctioning… I have been experiencing lag the past week but especially today (30 April 2025). And it’s not my internet or PC, it’s blizzard.

Edit: Playing on EU.

I’m having same problems. Like after 2-3 games it becomes unplayable, cause of lag and being so slow. I really hope there will be quick fix on this.

also now heartstone hogs all of my ram, something is wrong.

I experience the same things.

15 years ago, everyone said, “Blizzard is how games should be made.”
Now everyone says, “Blizzard is how games shouldn’t be made.”

Happens often to me as well, never any other games, only Hearthstone, and Battlegrounds especially becomes unplayable because of all the actions you need to do in a short timeframe.

Always a problem since YEARS.
I played pirate APM few days ago. APM is only in the name, I could barely do 1 action every 2/3 seconds. That’s awfull.
As I said long time ago. Your game, blizzard, can’t have mecanism who requiered APM and be that slow. You have two choices, optimize your game, or remove those mecanism. You should spend some energy on finding optimization.
