Hearthstone

Announcing the next expansion: TITANS

Before the age of mortals, the Titans came to the world. These gods towered over the nascent planet, using powerful magic and advanced technology to breathe life into it. They imbued their keepers with celestial powers to watch over the planet and help forge many of the beings that would inhabit it. This is Hearthstone’s most cosmic expansion yet. This is what myths are made of. This is TITANS!

Teaming up for better matches in Competitive Play

This season, the team has prioritized bringing players of equal skill levels together to cut down on one-sided matches and make games fairer

As each player’s matchmaking rating (or MMR) is adjusted after every match, playing more matches will provide the internal matchmaker with additional information that is then used to create balanced games

The team is making incremental adjustments throughout Season 5 to enable more players to climb out of Bronze 5 in a way that doesn’t upset the current rank distribution balance

Team Queue will be introduced as a mid-season Competitive mode, allowing players in a full group of five to queue with no rank restrictions

Learn more about new improvements coming soon to Competitive Play
