Get ready, Hearthstone fans, because The Great Dark Beyond Mini-Set: Heroes of StarCraft is about to shake up the game. Mark your calendars for January 21st, when this epic crossover will introduce iconic StarCraft factions into the world of Hearthstone, complete with a slew of quests and challenges to keep you engaged.
This isn't your average Mini-Set. Typically, you'd see 38 cards, but The Great Dark Beyond is breaking records with 49 cards in total. That's 4 Legendary cards, 1 Epic, 20 Rares, and 24 Commons, making it the largest Mini-Set Hearthstone has ever released. It's not just about quantity; the variety is impressive too.
Each StarCraft faction comes with 5 multi-class cards, and don't forget the star of the show, Grunty, the special neutral card that's sure to make a splash. You can explore The Great Dark Beyond Hearthstone packs to unlock the Heroes of StarCraft Mini-Set, or go all out and unlock the complete 94-card set. The standard Mini-Set is priced at 2500 Gold, while the all-Golden version will set you back 12,000 Gold.
Let's dive into the factions. First up, the Zerg faction is all about swarming the board and overwhelming your opponents. They're teaming up with Death Knight, Demon Hunter, Hunter, and Warlock, with Sarah Kerrigan leading the charge. If you're into generating an army of tokens, the Zerg is where you want to be.
Next, the Protoss faction, with Druid, Mage, Priest, and Rogue under the command of High Templar Artanis, focuses on big plays. Their high-cost cards become cheaper over time, setting the stage for explosive turns.
Lastly, the Terran faction, led by the fearless Jim Raynor, includes Paladin, Shaman, and Warrior. They're all about Starship synergies, allowing you to launch multiple Starships per game. The highlight here is The Battlecruiser, featuring new art and the Mech minion type. If you possess a Signature Starship piece, you'll unlock the Signature-art version of the Battlecruiser.
