] Arena, and today we finally got firm news on what is going to happen. The developers want players to be able to choose any class they want when playing Arena without feeling that they are at a disadvantage to other players. Additionally, they want to provide a range of experiences within every mode of the game instead of everyone playing the same Arena classes in the same way. Therefore, the developers will be removing quite a lot of cards from the Arena. They don't want to remove strong spells and weapons because they add a lot of unpredictability and excitement. Also, they wanted to avoid removing iconic cards.

Below is the list of all the cards to be removed in the upcoming patch:
