After a few weeks at the top on HS BG, Millhouse finally sees a nerf coming to put him in his place. August Dean Ayala, Senior Game Designer on Hearthstone, announced that by viewing data and player feedback, Millhouse needed to be changed. Currently dominating all the other Heroes in the tavern, the gnome will therefore change again.
This update will also include a buff to Libram of Justice and a nerf to Millhouse in BG. We'll continue to monitor live game data and player feedback and make any further changes as necessary.

What's new for this patch?
For the moment, the patch is not detailed. So we don't know what it will contain besides the Millhouse Manastorm nerf on HS BG, and the buff of the A book about justice
for other modes. However, we can expect to see new servants arrive, and some modified heroic powers. However, we must wait for official information to be sure.
Since the last Battlegrounds update was several weeks ago, it's a safe bet that a full patch is coming. No new minion sets are expected to be announced, but the official release of Ashes of Outland might give designers a boost. The demon composition can easily expect to see something new coming!
What date should be remembered for this HS BG patch?
For the moment, no date has been communicated concerning this next patch. We can, however, assume that it is scheduled to arrive on Tuesday April 21, or Thursday April 23. What is certain is that this patch will be available in game before May. The Battlegrounds mode meta will therefore change at this time, and reshape the popularity of Heroes.
While waiting for the Millhouse nerf, you can still make the most of it. But if the latter does not appear to you, a long list of Heroes awaits you on the Battlefield.
