Battlegrounds Updates

Dev Comment: This mid-season update is a big one! It brings StarCraft to Battlegrounds with new heroes and the rewards track cosmetics unlocks; it brings back and updates Anomalies; and it brings a much requested feature: combat speed-up! There's so much to cover that we can't even fit it all in the patch notes. So, jump into the Tavern and see it for yourself—all these changes are live now!

Anomalies Return!

Anomalies are back in Battlegrounds and, for the first time, in Duos! Anomalies are tavern-transforming effects that apply to all players from the start of each game. Adapt to the chaotic influence of the Old Gods to claim your crown!

Compared to last time they were in the Tavern, we removed several of the less popular Anomalies, adjusted some that are returning, and created 21 new Anomalies (4 of which are Duos-only).
