A riotous bunch of gladiators have been living it up with the loa in Gurubashi Arena since Rastakhan’s Rumble began. . . but not everyone has been overjoyed with the glory that has been heaped upon the other loa. You see, before the rise of the Zandalari Empire and King Rastakhan, Gurubashi once belonged to a very different kind of loa. A darker loa. . . .

The blood god Hakkar!

Oh yes, Hakkar has dabbled in Rastakhan’s little game—but in his dark heart he dreams of a return to the glory days, when every sacrifice in Gurubashi Arena was made in his honor and he ruled over the Gurubashi Empire with cursed blood and an iron fist! Er, scythey-claw-hand-thing!

And he has a plan. . .

Soon Hakkar’s name will be on every gladiator’s lips, because his curse has been unleashed on Rastakhan...

We’ve heard a lot of feedback about the long climb in Ranked play, so starting with the February Ranked Play season, we’re introducing a quality of life change by reducing the number of Stars required to advance in many of the Ranks!

Currently, every Rank has five Stars. When the February Ranked Play Season starts, each Rank will have the following number of Stars instead:

Rank Stars
Rank 50 to Rank 16 3 Stars per Rank
Rank 15 to Rank 11 4 Stars per Rank
Rank 10 to Rank 1 5 Stars per Rank

This will make your Ranked Play climb faster in the lower ranks, while preserving the more competitive Star values for the higher Ranks.

We invite you to celebrate Hallow’s End with a selection of spooky deck lists! From the mysterious mechanized might of Mecha’thun and Uther of the Ebon Blade’s four-horse apocalypse, to the simple joy of haunting your foes with Deathrattle, each of these decks celebrates Hallow’s End in a different way.

They might be more well suited to a friendly challenge than smashing jack’o’lanterns on the ladder, but they’re a lot of fun, and we hope they give you a sinister grin for the holiday!

See you on the Uther-side

This deck is all about harnessing the power of the scourge with Uther of the Ebon Blade!

Take over the board early with a swarm of small minions. Later in the game, combine Uther of the Ebon Blade’s hero power with cards like Youthful Brewmaster and Zola the Gorgon to assemble the Four Horsemen to win ...
