Hearthstone Unveils Emerald Dream Expansion, Introduces Meta-Shifting Keywords

by Victoria Apr 17,2025

The new Hearthstone expansion, Into the Emerald Dream, has arrived, bringing with it a thrilling array of 145 new cards to enhance your gameplay experience. This expansion introduces exciting new mechanics that are sure to shake up the meta and keep you on the edge of your seat.

One of the standout features is the Imbue Keyword, which allows you to tap into the power of the World Tree. As a Druid, Hunter, Mage, Paladin, Priest, or Shaman, playing an Imbue card for the first time grants you a unique Hero Power specific to your class. Each subsequent Imbue card you play upgrades this power, making you an unstoppable force on the battlefield.

Another game-changing addition is the Dark Gifts Keyword, which offers powerful minion boosts tailored to your playstyle. This feature is available for Warrior, Demon Hunter, Death Knight, Warlock, and Rogue, and can be paired with specific Discover options to give you the upper hand in combat.

Lastly, the Expanded Keyword: Choose One introduces cards that offer two different modes when played, adding another layer of strategic depth to your deck-building. With all these new mechanics, it's crucial to update your decks to stay competitive in the ever-evolving world of Hearthstone.
