Hearthstone Whizbang's Workshop expansion now live

Among the 145 new cards is the Splendiferous Whizbang minion. When you build your deck using this single card and enter a match, it lets you begin the game with an experimental deck. Since Splendiferous Whizbang is of the legendary variety, crafting the normal version of it requires 1,600 dust.

Whizbang's Workshop features throwback characters

In terms of what else is included in the new Hearthstone expansion, there are a lot of throwbacks to commemorate 10 years of the game. For example, Whizbang's Workshop pays homage to iconic minions such as King Krush, Raza the Chained, and Shudderwock through the new King Plush, Raza the Resealed, and Shudderblock!

How the Miniaturize keyword works in Hearthstone

The new expansion features the debut of the Miniaturize keyword as well. When a card with this keyword is played, it grants you a 1-mana 1/1 version of itself. A few examples of cards with the Miniaturize keyword include Boom Wrench, Toy Captain Tarim, and Sandbox Scoundrel.

Zilliax Deluxe 3000 customizations

Of course, don't forget about the new Zilliax Deluxe 3000 minion! While building your deck, you can select this legendary Mech and choose from eight modules. Zilliax Deluxe 3000 lets you combine the cost, stats, and effects of these modules while letting you customize the minion's overall appearance as well.
