League of Explorers will come to Hearthstone players next Thursday, November 12 with the first wing. But these will be neutral and restricted to the cards of the class you’re now playing in your Hearthstone game. Blizzard first experimented with the form with Curse of Naxxramas in July 2014, and the company released follow-up Blackrock Mountain in April of this year.

New Cards: The League of Explorers contains 4 wings packed with fiendish bosses, puzzling traps, and ancient mysteries for you to discover.
As with every Adventure, we’ll get new game boards, and these ones look really cool and quite different from the existing ones, which I’m happy about. League of Explorers is structured much like previous single-player expansions.
The four wings are Temple of Orsis, Uldaman, Stranglethorn Jungle, and the Hall of Explorers. That is the final “wing” of the adventure. Others have picked up the scent as well, so you’ll have to play your cards right to stay one step ahead of the competition and keep the Staff of Origination from falling into the wrong hands!
A hunter spell called “Explorer’s Hat” will give a minion one extra attack and one extra health, but that’s not the only bonus it provides. That’s not all though. If you beat them, their cards are yours. For example, a certain minion might have a battlecry that reads “discover a spell”. Choosing one will have that spell immediately put into your hand.
If you think this is all pretty awesome, then you’re in for a treat because there is even more to check out. Explorers, however, has a more general treasure-hunting theme: Join the League of Explorers and embark on the adventure of a lifetime.

The Elise Starseeker card sounds incredibly fun. Details about individual cards are sparse for now, but Blizzard did reveal the effects of the Elise Starseeker card, which shuffles a card called “Map to the Golden Monkey” into the player’s deck. And when Golden Monkey is played? We will let that just sink in for a bit… We will post an update once it arrives.
