Golden cards are special, rarer versions of cards. Each card exists in both a regular and a golden form.

The difference between a card's normal version and its golden version is purely aesthetic - all golden cards feature a golden frame, and each has a unique animation. There is no difference in gameplay or behaviour on the battlefield, and golden cards do not allow you to circumvent the 2-per-deck (1-per-deck for legendaries) card restriction.

Golden cards are commonly compared with 'foil' cards of other Trading Card Games, and are far harder and more costly to obtain than their regular versions. Golden cards are intended to allow players to show off their card-collecting achievements.[1]

Because golden cards do not display the usual class colours, golden cards feature additional ribbons at the top and/or bottom bearing the colour of the card's class.

It doesn’t go far enough to push them over the edge at the other end, but it’s usually enough to get them teetering. Coin Master Gold Cards Hacks. Collecting these golden cards can be a hassle for the players since there are extremely rare to find in the game. However, there are some tips you can consider using Coin Master, which will help you to get these rare golden cards at an earlier stage.

How to get[edit edit source]

While offering no functional difference, golden cards are far harder to obtain than their non-golden versions. Those that can be crafted are far more expensive to craft, and far more rewarding to disenchant. The means of obtaining a golden card depends on the card set to which the card belongs.

Golden cards also generate, summon, transform and otherwise create golden cards.[2][3] Golden uncollectible cards can therefore be brought into play through golden versions of the generating cards.

Basic cards[edit edit source]

A golden version of each Basic card can be obtained by leveling a specific class of hero to a certain level. Raising a hero of the correct class to the required level will 'unlock' the card, granting the player one of the golden version of that card. The player is then required to raise the class to a higher level (usually 1-5 levels) to 'unlock' a second golden version of the same card. While all class-specific golden Basic cards require a hero of the corresponding class to unlock, the required class for non-class-specific cards varies. Some non-class-specific cards have two possible classes.

Golden Basic cards are considered 'Uncraftable' and cannot be disenchanted or crafted.

Expansion cards[edit edit source]

Golden cards from expansion sets currently part of Standard format, as well as the Classic set, can be obtained through card packs, Arena rewards, or crafting. Golden cards from Wild format expansion sets can be obtained through crafting or through card packs.

Each card found in a card pack has a chance to be automatically upgraded to its golden version. Individual cards rewarded from Arena play likewise have a chance to be golden. Crafting and disenchanting values for golden cards are between two and eight times those of their non-golden counterparts. It is also worth noting that Rare, Epic and Legendary golden cards will disenchant for exactly as much dust as it takes to craft a regular counterpart, respectively allowing them to be exchanged for any single Rare, Epic or Legendary card you might require, making them especially useful for building up your collection.

Adventure cards[edit edit source]

Golden cards from adventure sets can be obtained exclusively through crafting. Golden cards from Standard format adventures are only available to craft once the card's regular version has been obtained through defeating the corresponding boss or Class Challenge within the adventure, but golden cards from Wild format adventures can be crafted at any time. As of the start of the Year of the Phoenix, all adventures are now in Wild format except Galakrond's Awakening, and so golden cards from any adventure predating that can be crafted at any time. The costs for crafting them are the same as those for other craftable cards (see section above).

Promo cards[edit edit source]

Previously, golden cards from the Promo set were only obtainable by fulfilling the specific criteria for those cards. At the start of the Year of the Mammoth, the Promo set was moved into the Hall of Fame, and so the cards were moved into Wild format. They can now be crafted at any time.

Generated golden cards[edit edit source]

Golden cards create golden cards. This means that new cards or minions created by a golden card during a game will automatically be the golden version. This includes summon, generate and transform effects.[2][4] These means are the only way to encounter golden versions of uncollectible cards. However, existing cards which are merely moved or put into play by golden cards will not be changed into their golden versions.[5]

As a rule, if any card involved in the generation of another card is golden, the resulting card will also be golden. For example a golden Polymorph cast upon a regular Goldshire Footman will create a golden Sheep; as will a regular Polymorph cast upon a golden Goldshire Footman, or a golden Polymorph cast upon a golden Goldshire Footman.[6] Effects which create cards through interaction with characters obey the same rules; Light of the Naaru will generate a golden Lightwarden if either the spell or the target character is golden - including golden heroes.[7][8]

The above rules apply for all generation of new cards, including both uncollectible cards such as Imp Master's Imps, and normally collectible cards such as Archmage Antonidas' Fireballs. However, as stated above, existing cards which are merely moved or put into play from the player's deck by golden cards, such as by put into battlefield, put into hand or card draw effects, will not be changed into their golden versions.[5]

Hero Powers which generate cards work the same way. For example, a golden Reinforce will generate golden Silver Hand Recruits. However, effects which replace Hero Powers may or may not produce golden versions (see below).

While these rules are largely consistent, there are a few exceptions, and these are listed in the appropriate sections below. Note that bugs may also cause inconsistent behaviour in some cases.

Types

The main types of uncollectible card generation are broken down below, along with a few examples.

  • Minion summoning
    • Golden cards which summon minions will summon golden version of those minions. For example, golden Dragonling Mechanic will summon a golden Mechanical Dragonling, golden Mirror Image will summon golden Mirror Image minions, and golden Harvest Golem's Deathrattle will summon a golden Damaged Golem. Cards which summon minions dependent on interaction with characters will produce golden minions if either the card or the target character is golden, such as Light of the Naaru.
      • Note that put into battlefield effects such as Deathlord's Deathrattle are not summon effects, and will not automatically produce golden cards in this way; they instead follow the rule for card drawing effects (see below).
      • The one exception is Blood of The Ancient One, which only produces a golden The Ancient One if both Blood of The Ancient Ones are golden.[9]
  • Card generation
    • Golden cards which generate other cards will generate golden versions of those cards.[2] For example, golden Mind Vision will create golden versions of the opponent's cards, and golden Elite Tauren Chieftain will create golden Power Chord cards (which may in turn summon golden minions). This includes generate effects which copy other cards, even if the card being copied is not golden.
    • The only exceptions are Blingtron 3000, Elise the Trailblazer's Un'Goro Pack, and Zola the Gorgon. Blingtron and Zola will always generates golden weapons and minions, respectively, regardless of whether the Blingtron or Zola is golden or regular. A golden Elise generates a golden pack containing five golden cards, as expected; but while a regular Elise generates a regular pack, that Un'Goro Pack has a chance to generate Golden cards, much like a regular pack has a chance to open them.

  • Transformation
    • Golden cards which transform cards will transform them into their golden versions. For example, golden Polymorph and golden Hex will turn a target minion into a golden Sheep and a golden Frog, respectively.
    • Golden minions will always produce golden versions when transformed. For example, a regular Polymorph played on a golden Molten Giant will produce a golden Sheep.
  • Card draw, put into battlefield and put into hand effects
    • Golden cards which cause the player to draw cards, or move them from zone to another will not change cards to their golden versions. This is because those cards already exist, and are not modified by being drawn or moved. For example, a golden Novice Engineer will not draw golden cards, unless the cards are already golden. Likewise, a golden Varian Wrynn or Captain's Parrot will not change cards into their golden versions.
  • Replacing Hero Powers
    • Cards which replace a Hero Power with another one (such as Lord Jaraxxus, Sir Finley Mrrgglton or Shadowform) will only grant golden Hero Powers if the card is golden. For example, playing a regular Sir Finley Mrrgglton with a golden Hero Power will replace it with a regular Hero Power; playing a regular Shadowform after playing a golden Shadowform will replace the golden Mind Spike with a regular Mind Shatter.
    • However, Justicar Trueheart and Baku the Mooneater both produce a golden Hero Power if either the card or the Hero Power is golden.[10] This may be because those cards conceptually 'upgrade' the Hero Power, so a golden hero power is changed to a more powerful golden power.
  • The Coin
    • If the deck of the player chosen to go second is composed entirely of golden cards, they will be granted a golden version of The Coin.

Non-constructed decks[edit edit source]

In some game modes, the game provides you with a deck, or with the cards for your deck (instead of you constructing the deck from your own collection). Those modes have different rules for which cards are golden.

  • In Arena play, if you have two copies of a golden card (or one copy of a legendary golden card), all copies of that card appearing in the arena draft will be golden. If you have one golden copy of a non-legendary card, the first copy of that card appearing in the draft will be golden, and all further copies will be regular.
  • In dungeon runs, none of the cards you build your deck with are golden, though you can add golden cards to your deck with certain treasures (like Magic Mirror).
  • Tavern Brawls where you do not build your own deck do not ordinarily give you golden cards, though every tavern brawl makes its own rules.
  • If you use a golden Whizbang the Wonderful or Zayle, Shadow Cloak, you'll play with a golden hero and an all-golden deck.[11] If you use a non-golden version, the deck you play with will have no golden cards, regardless of what you have in your collection.
  • In Battlegrounds, golden cards are a mechanic. Golden minions are obtained by collecting three of any minion, which will fuse the three cards into a golden copy with doubled stats and a stronger ability.

Viewing uncollected golden cards[edit edit source]

To view currently uncollected golden cards in-game, go to the Collection screen, enter crafting mode, and choose the 'show golden cards only' option. Players can right-click cards to view them up close. However, currently uncollected cards will be yellow-shaded rather than showing their actual colours.

Full-colour animated golden versions of all cards can also be viewed on Hearthpwn.

Main article: Card art#Golden cards

While the underlying art for each card is created by a range of artists, the creation of golden card images requires additional work, transforming each static 2D image into a recoloured, animated, moving display. Hearthstone's golden card art is created by Becca Abel, Kyle Harrison, John Zwicker and Jon Briggs.[12][13]

Trivia[edit edit source]

  • Senior Game Designer Ben Brode has stated that he intentionally 'tried to make the least playable golden basics the easiest to get,' and that he 'loves' how rare golden Sen'jin Shieldmasta is,[14] requiring the player to reach levels 59 and 60 with a rogue.
  • The introductory sections to trailers such as those for Goblins vs Gnomes and Curse of Naxxramas feature placeholder art for golden card frames.[15] Resembling a purple version of the mage card frame, this art was used prior to the development of the golden card frames, but has continued to be used in trailers.[15]

Patch changes[edit edit source]
