The Boomsday Project explores crazy, Hearthstone-ified science, wacky scientists and their inventions, and the many experiments gone wrong. To illustrate this, Peter revealed three cards coming in The Boomsday Project:
Flobbidinous Floop – As the Druid class scientist, Floop is a 4 mana 3/4 Legendary minion, but while he’s in the player’s hand, he transforms into a 3/4 copy of the last minion played. Floop promotes open-ended deck building and allows players to experiment in wild ways.
Supercollider – A Warrior weapon that forces a minion to attack one of its neighbours if it survives. You know, a typical Warrior invention.
Whizbang the Wonderful – The most wonderful scientist of all! With Whizbang in their deck, players start the game with a random deck recipe that Whizbang chooses. It’s 18 decks in one card, and is a great way to experience lots of different decks and styles.
Want to see more cards coming in The Boomsday Project? Tune into the official card reveal kick off livestream via the Hearthstone Twitch channel at 3 am AEST Tuesday 24 July. VOD will be made available shortly after the stream concludes.
