Hearthstone Reveals New Season with Exciting Power-Ups

Hearthstone Battlegrounds Season 8: A Deep Dive into New Features and Updates

Hearthstone's Season 8 has arrived, bringing exciting changes to Battlegrounds! This update introduces new Trinkets, heroes, minions, and spells, alongside some much-needed adjustments for seasoned players. Let's explore the highlights.

The New Power-Ups: Trinkets

The Perils in Paradise update paves the way for Season 8's core mechanic: Trinkets. A total of 56 Lesser Trinkets and 60 Greater Trinkets are available, with the possibility of obtaining duplicates. These powerful upgrades are offered on turns 6 and 9, presenting four choices each time. Importantly, Trinkets are tailored to your chosen hero and your current board composition, ensuring synergy regardless of your strategy (Elementals, Dragons, Murlocs, etc.).

Meet Marin the Manager: The New Hero

Season 8 introduces Marin the Manager, a hero who provides a significant advantage. Marin grants you an extra Trinket a turn earlier than usual, giving you a strategic edge from the outset. See Marin in action!
