Receiving Incoming Transmission: the Heroes of StarCraft Mini-Set is Here!

COM-LINK ESTABLISHED! On January 21, Hearthstone launches further than it’s ever gone before with the Heroes of StarCraft Mini-Set! This is our biggest Mini-Set ever, consisting of 49 new cards (instead of the usual 38): 4 Legendary cards, 1 Epic card, 20 Rare cards, and 24 Commons cards. We’ve also added one very special non-faction neutral card: Grunty.

IT’S ABOUT TIME

• Command Your Faction. The Heroes of StarCraft Mini-Set is split into the three iconic StarCraft factions: the Zerg, the Protoss, and the Terrans. Each faction has 5 cards that can be played across all the classes within that faction, including a Legendary Hero card as their leader, plus three class-specific cards per class within the faction.
• Be a Hero of StarCraft. Death Knight, Demon Hunter, Hunter, and Warlock make up the Zerg. They are led by the vicious Sarah Kerrigan and use aggressive swarming strategies, direct damage, and minion generation to pressure their opponents. Druid, Mage, Priest, and Rogue fight for the Protoss. Led by the noble Artanis, they use cost reductions to power out higher-cost minions and spells, made cheaper throughout the game. Spend the first few turns of the game building up your resources and then unleash big bursts of power. And finally, Paladin, Shaman, and Warrior make up the Terran forces. Led by the legendary Jim Raynor, the Terrans have special Starship synergies that help them amass a platoon of troops, launch multiple Battlecruisers each game, and then launch them again.
• Available in the Shop. Cards can either be opened in The Great Dark Beyond packs or unlocked as a complete 94-card set.* The normal version of the Mini-Set is available for $19.99 USD or 2500 Gold. The all-Golden version of the Mini-Set is available for $79.99 USD or 12,000 Gold and comes with a bonus Diamond Legendary card: Grunty! For this special Mini-Set, you can also get normal versions of each of the individual factions for $9.99 or 1200 Gold if you just want one.**
