How to get Queen Azshara early in Hearthstone Battlegrounds

Hearthstone Battlegrounds will be introducing Queen Aszshara, a new hero to the game. Queen Azshara is the leader of the new Naga minion class and will enter the game on May 24, 2022. She plays well with Naga minions and can even transform into Naga Queen Azshara if certain conditions are met.

Can you get Queen Ashara in Hearthstone Battlegrounds early?

If you have Hearthstone's Battlegrounds Perks, you can access Queen Azshara early. It costs $14.99 in the Battle.net shop, and each purchase lasts until the next expansion. The Battlegrounds Perks usually allow access to heroes early, but Queen Azshara will be available to all when she releases normally.

The special skill she possesses is Azshara's Ambition, which is passive. The skill says, "When your monsters on the field reach 30 total Attack, begin your Naga Conquest," meaning that if all friendly minions on the field reach 30 attack, then Queen Azshara will transform into Naga Queen Azshara.

Naga Queen Azshara can discover Nagas, so the motivation to transform is to be able to control the more spell-focused Naga minions.
