Hearthstone Expansion - The Boomsday Project
A new Hearthstone expansion is on the way, featuring Dr. Boom! It'll be ready on August 7 2018.

  • Magnetic Minions can be played on their own, but if you have a mech on the board you can play a Magnetic minion and fuse it to the mech to add to its health, attack, and add an ability.
  • Projects are new spell cards with extremely powerful effects, but they help both players.
  • Omega Project - These cards are normal, but have a Battlecry that works when you have 10 Mana Crystals.
  • There will be legendary spells, such as one that draws your entire deck!

    According to the website you can get it in both the regular and mega bundles. The only thing you are paying for in the Mega Bundle is 30 extra packs.

    We knew it would be Netherstorm related when we saw this at BlizzCon:



    The next one is going to be Pandaria related.

    I stopped playing with Heartstone sometime back arouuuuund..Gadgetzan expansion i guess? There are so many expansions I can't even reember. And the reason I left was exactly that, too many expansions. And it wasnt strictly about money either. I just don't like that rush feeling. I like thing to settle down a bit. Maybe get bored with the status quo. AND AFTER THAT a new expansion. At Hearstone's rate, everything seems unimportant to me.

    No basic bundle gets the MECHA-JARAXXUS! Card back

    Mega bundle gets 30 extra packs, MECHA-JARAXXUS! Card Back, and the Warlock Hero Card, MECHA-JARAXXUS!

    Edit:

    Pre-purchase The Boomsday Project to receive a 50 card pack bundle, a random Golden Legendary card from The Boomsday Project, and the Mecha-Jaraxxus card back!

    Didn't realize they named the Card back the same thing. That's bullshit.

    Yuuuup.
    And the funny thing is, I bought plenty of preorders and even some pack bundles.
    I really don't mind spending some money on a game I play a lot, but if it just feels you are getting milked it turns in a big no thanks really fast.

    Doesn't help when those cards you bought are also pushed out of meta faster and faster and you're seeing less return

    I love the concept. I hope their overcharged mechanic won't be too OP, but it's a welcome change to the game design. More late-game options are sorely needed, with aggro decks being a little bit too prominent right now.

    In any case, my 5k gold is ready!

    Apparently I was wrong and it is indeed a hero icon. Sorry!

    This looks like it might be the worst Hearthstone expansion yet. No wonder Brode got out when he did.

    Kinda like those hook claw machines they have in restaraunts. Try to get it for $1 per play or buy it straight off for $20.

    I swear you can never get what you want with those.

    So... yeah. You're right.

    Brode helped design this one. They design expansions three in advance. He probably helped design every single one that will come out this year.

    But yeah, I get what you're saying. I think!
    No mecha jaaraxxis is a playable hero like Medivh or the other alternative heroes. If you preorder the mega bundle u can play as him right now
