The Grand Tournament is nearly upon us (hopefully, next Monday), but the TGT patch has already dropped in preparation for the upcoming expansion release. New quests have also been added. The datamining uncovered all the lovely gold Legendaries as well as all the sound files of the new expansion, 20 minutes of new sounds and voiceovers.

Another glance at the cards shows how the “Inspire” status will work.
The Inspire ability will be activated whenever players use their hero power. The inspire cards seem to focus on raising the health or attack of a minion. There’s also the Master Jouster who gains Taunt and Divine Shield if a chosen minion in your deck has a higher cost than the one chosen from your opponent’s deck. There are a total of 82 new class cards to collect, with the remaining 50 being common cards usable by any class.
Besides the new cards, there will also be a new playing field, which is the background the game is played on. It’s important to note that while this is a clear hint at co-op play happening, these are test lines of code, meaning they may never be used at all. The new one will no doubt have some of these as well.
Is cooperative play coming with the Grand Tournament expansion?
Hearthstone was released last year and now has more than 2 million players. The maintenance includes Hearthstone, so it’s possible the expansion set will be available after the game’s servers are back online.

These new cards can be unlocked when a player purchases packs of five, either with real money or through in-game currency.
