Brace yourselves for what the tide is bringing in – the first-ever Battlegrounds Season, Rise of the Naga, launches on May 10! The catch of the day includes a Battlegrounds Rating reset, a new Hero, and a brand new minion type, the Naga. Before you get swept away, don’t miss previews of the upcoming minions and mechanics over the coming days – for more details, check out the Rise of the Naga blog post here.

NEW MINION TYPE: NAGA

  • 16 new Naga minions
  • A spell-based minion type, Naga tend to either give spells or gain power when spells are played.

NEW KEYWORD: SPELLCRAFT

  • Minions with the Spellcraft keyword grant a temporary spell each turn.
  • Spellcraft spells leave your hand at the end of your turn – if you don’t use them, you lose them.
  • Spellcraft effects only last until your next Recruit phase.
  • If your hand is full, Spellcraft spells will “wait” until there is a free space in your hand, instead of getting destroyed or being delayed a turn.
