[BLOG] #BlizzGC2015: The Grand Tournament at #Gamescom

It's that time again, and this week's Gamecom has given us a lot more to think about with reveals to the next Hearthstone expansion; The Grand Tournament.



We got to see another new mechanic that's being added to the game, although it's not got its own effect text - rather it's a sub-type of a Battlecry. The Joust sees both players draw a card from their deck, and in order for the Joust player to win their card must cost more in mana than the opponent's. In other words, it's a Battlecry with a condition based on RNG draw.



Ranked play will also see an update in that all players who progress past Rank 20 will gain extra rewards based on their highest reached rank during the month - even if you've no longer got that rank it seems. They'll be presented in a chest that'll contain the month's cardback, some arcane dust and one or more golden cards. Nice incentive to play Ranked again there.



And of course, there's the new cards that have been revealed. Let's get to seeing them shall we?
