Hearthstone’s Newest Expansion Is A Mystery With Murder At Castle Nathria

Hearthstone is taking a trip to the Shadowlands for a fancy dinner party hosted by the definitely-not-nefarious Sire Denathrius. “Hosted” is appropriate in the past tense because someone has murderedFormer leader of Revendreath, the Venthyr. There are many suspects to be investigated to uncover the truth about Murder at Castle Nathria.

Murder at Castle Nathria has three key aspects to the set, including a couple of new mechanics to the digital card game. There are 10 of them. Legendary SuspectsNew legendary minions have been added, with one representing each Hearthstone class. These legends include fishy detective Murloc Holmes which allows you to copy cards from your opponent’s deck by guessing three questions about cards in their hand or deck correctly and Decimator Olgra who can be buffed by counting the number of damaged minions and then attacks all enemies on the board. You can also use this card to make a bluff by counting the number of damaged minions and attacking all enemies on the board.

Localities These are new cards that can now be put onto the battlefield. They do not have attack or health stats, and they cannot be targeted with Spells or Minions unless the card says otherwise. They’ll have a significant impact on games, despite not being able to interact with other players. Locations have abilities that can be activated by the player once per turn and, like Equipment, have a set amount of uses, with each activation consuming one durability and triggering a cooldown for one turn. Once a Location card is used up, it will leave the battlefield.

Finally, InfuseMurder at Castle Nathria now has new mechanics. Cards with the Infuse keyword will gain strength while sitting in your hand when friendly minions on the battlefield die, absorbing the Anima or life essence from that entity. After the Infuse cost has been paid, the effect or spell will either increase the power of the card or change it in some other way. This will allow you to cast a more powerful card.

Murder at Castle Narthria is coming to Hearthstone on August 2 and will include a total of 135 new cards. Check out the new cards and the video announcement at the top.
