Well met!

Hearthstone Battlegrounds Companion

This site is dedicated to Hearthstone Battlegrounds —
as for me, the only entertaining mode of Hearthstone nowadays.

Why this site exists

Ranked mode was plagued by Mid Range Shaman in 2016 and slaughtered by Pirate Warrior in 2017.

Arena mode at its best was murdered after One Night in Karazhan (August 2016) — that expansion just massacred the balance and killed that game mode.

But in November 2019, Battlegrounds arrived — and some fun came back.

Here you can find up-to-date meta compositions, heroes, minions, anomalies, timewarp cards, and patch notes.

This site is built by one person — just an enthusiast who tried to get back into the game in March 2026 and realized there is no well-structured information anywhere. If you want to learn something, you either sit on Reddit or watch hour-long YouTube videos. This site is an attempt to gradually collect all useful information and keep it up to date.

But remember — I'm just one person. There's a lot of information out there, and my wife, kids, and boss are constantly yelling. I'll do my best, and I hope it all works out.

Greetings, traveler!
