What's New Coming to Saviors of Uldum?
There's some big new additions to the game coming in Saviors of Uldum! We've got new Quests and Highlander cards coming, but also a new Keyword with Reborn and the new Plagues mechanic!
Quests
It's the return of Quests in Saviors of Uldum. If you place one of these in your deck, you are guaranteed to get it in your opening hand. Once you have the quest in play, you will need to fulfill the requirements of it to receive a powerful new hero power!
Highlander Cards (Singleton)
These are cards that require you to build your deck without any duplicate cards. If you do so, you can benefit from the following cards.
Reborn Keyword
Minions with the Reborn keyword will return to life with 1 health left the first time they are defeated.
Plague Mechanic
Plagues don't do anything specific, they are more like flavor for the expansion theme.
135 New Cards!
There's a bunch more new cards to take a look at, and we've got the full list of them in our Saviors of Uldum Spoilers List!
