25.0.2 Hearthstone Patch Notes – Battlegrounds & Duels Updates, Bug Fixes

A medium-sized hotfix patch is going live right now. It mostly focused on Battlegrounds & Duels, but also fixed some general bugs.

In Battlegrounds, we had some shifts in Quest Rewards – some were made harder to get while others are now easier.

In Duels, Prince Renathal was banned from all buckets and many of the previously banned cards were unbanned and are now draftable.

As for the general bug fixes – the patch tackled issues with Souleater's Scythe (it would fail to give you Souls if you got it in your opening hand and mulliganed it away) and Maestra of the Masquerade (it would never disguise as Death Knight).
