Free Lunar New Year Card Back

Get your very own Dancing Lion Card Back free in the Hearthstone shop. Get it soon though because this goes away on February 8!

A really cool note about this card back is it was designed by a Hearthstone player! There was a Hearthstone Card Back Design Competition done last year in China and Xi Luo created this beauty. This card back was the ultimate winner of the competition, though it isn't the only card back to make it in from a fan creation - this honor also goes to the Mysteries of the Phoenix card back we saw from the Forged in the Barrens secret and Unseen Gleams which was given out during a Huawei promotion.


Lunar Blessings Tavern Brawl Returns

The Lunar Blessings Tavern Brawl has appeared once more. This is the third time we've seen this brawl.

Celebrate the Lunar New Year! Choose a class and get a random deck, choose an animal to receive its blessing and power!

Winning the brawl this week lets you take home a Year of the Phoenix card pack.


Shop Skins

There's a ton of Lunar New Year content in the shop, open up Hearthstone and see what you're being offered. there's new hero skin bundles, battlegrounds skins, and some returning favourites.
