Hearthstone Patch Will Adjust Duels, Fix Bugs | Game Rant
Some big changes have been happening in Hearthstone lately, from spell schools to the new annual Core set mechanic, which is an exciting shake-up bigger than anything the game has seen since its release in 2014. Now, on the heels of these changes, Patch 20.0.1 is coming with a plethora of bug fixes to make the experience smoother.
The patch will fix several bugs that players will likely be happy to see go. For instance, the bug that causes Scorch to deal less damage than intended will be removed in Version 20.0.1. However, a bug or two that some players may have enjoyed exploiting, such as the Sparkjoy bug that would cast two secrets from the player's hand, are also leaving Hearthstone when the update goes live.
In general, the patch will clean up many frustrating bugs and make game improvements that most players should welcome. Anyone starting Hearthstone in 2021 is stepping into a very different experience than those who have been playing the digital card game for years, and patch 20.0.1 is smoothing that experience out.
That's not to say there won't be anything new coming to Hearthstone. While previous Hearthstone patches have added new cards or battleground updates, and this upcoming patch seems mostly aimed at fixing bugs, Blizzard also says it will have, "Several additional updates for Duels in our next client patch." It is currently unknown what those updates will entail, but Patch 20.0.1 will release on April 5.
Here is the full list of changes included in the Version 20.0.1 patch notes:
- Removed Pen Flinger from designer buckets in Duels.
- Removed Cannibalism Passive Treasure from Duels.
- Fixed a bug where Silverleaf Poison could cause attacking with Kingsbane to draw two cards instead of one.
- Fixed a bug where Power Word: Fortitude could only be used on friendly minions.
- Fixed a bug where Vanessa VanCleef would give the post-transformation version of a minion, such as the Kodo version of Druid of the Plains.
- Fixed a bug where Vectus would not summon Whelps unless a friendly Deathrattle minion had been destroyed earlier in the game.
