Blizzard just posted a teaser of the upcoming balance update for both Constructed and Battlegrounds! It’s the fourth balance update in Perils in Paradise, and the second after the mini-set. It’s also most likely the final balance patch before 31.0 and the launch of The Great Dark Beyond expansion.
It’s a mid-sized patch mostly focused on Standard and Battlegrounds, but we actually have a couple of Wild-only changes too.
Until the full patch notes are released, we only know what cards are affected and not how! The patch will drop tomorrow (October 17), most likely around 10 AM PT. Patch notes are usually released an hour before the patch itself. Keep in mind that this is just an educated guess based on the previous similar patches, the exact timing hasn’t been officially confirmed yet.
For now, learn more about the patch below:
