Rise of Shadows is Hearthstone's eleventh expansion and is set to release on April 9, 2019.
New Keyword: Twinspell - You get a second copy of the spell (without the Twinspell keyword). Schemes - Spells that get more powerful the longer you hold them in your hand. Lackeys - These are 1/1 tokens created by other cards that have a variety of Battlecry abilities, such as dealing damage, giving other minions Attack/Health bonuses, or summoning new minions. More will be introduced throughout the year. Old Mechanics: Look for some old mechanics that haven't been used in awhile to make a resurgence throughout the year. We'll definitely be seeing the "Forbidden" mechanic from Whispers of the Old Gods where you are required to spend all of your mana to play the card (Forbidden: Ancient, Flame, Shaping, Ritual, and Healing). Arena: The cardpool availability will change to include the following sets: Basic, Classic, Naxxramas, Whispers of the Old Gods, Goblins VS Gnomes, The Witchwood, and Rise of Shadows. Pre-Order: $50 and $80 options will be available for pre-order and both come with the new card back "The Jewel of Lazul" shown below.

Tavern Brawls were first introduced in Hearthstone on June 15, 2015 as a way to offer an ever-changing format for players to keep things interesting from week to week.
The first brawl was "Showdown at Blackrock Mountain" where players fought each other with pre-made decks as Nefarian and Ragnaros. Over the years we've seen a lot of different brawls, although some have repeated several times. The rewards are normally 1 Classic Hearthstone pack for the first win each week, but sometimes they change it up with more recent packs and even unique card backs.
This forum is dedicated to discussing strategy and tips for current brawls.
