Mana Shard Race; each arena has a small chance to have the Shard Race, with small shards of mana left around the arena for you to pick up. Collect them all to gain bonus mana at the end of the arena.
New menu music getting you ready to fight.
Balance & Changes

Reworked Stormbringers basic attack a bit
Base damage down from from 13-25 damage to 8-15 damage
Fully stretching now grants an additional 10 damage flat. This means the damage will jump from 15 to 25 on the last moment of stretching.

Rat Boss laser warnings improved.
Misc
Fixed an issue with Squire of Lights basic beam not resetting damage properly if you reactivated it quicky

Enjoy!

Update A5 - Honor and Glory!
Today we bring you some really interesting features!
Note that all progress up until now has been wiped, so you’ll have to re-unlock any cards you had. This will happen a few times during the alpha.
Features
New boss: Earth Elemental, appears in the first world.
Implemented a completely new loading system
This will greatly decrease loading times between arenas, but it may have introduced any number of bugs to the game, so please don’t hesitate to report stuff on the forums!
Introduced an Honor Ranking system.
Players can now gain honor when they complete a match or lose some when they die. When a daily ends, the top 10 players will gain honor based on their position. There is a ranking that shows the 10 players with the most honor gained.
2 new cards, Ability Bolts and Item Salvage
Balance & Changes
The Flying Small Fire Dragon can now fly over low and destroyable walls
Firewall time per arena reduced from 50 to 40 seconds
Rescaled Squire of Light’s Guardian Light from 2 to 4 seconds duration and 10 to 12 seconds cooldown.
Squire of Light’s basic attack now applies it’s movespeed reduction slower, meaning he will take longer to reach full stop.
Graw’s movespeed increased from 3 to 4.5
Graw now uses his Spit attack much more often when you’re out of melee range, and the projectile travels faster.
Misc
Decks can now be given a name
Cards in the decklist are now sorted by cost and they stack if there are two.
Fixed an issue with the Chasing Ghost avoiding low walls instead of flying through them
Updated Squire of Lights Guardian Light card description to reflect the healing removal
Added Light FX to Squire of Light’s helmet
Fixed an issue with Volco’s volcanic strike appearing outside the arena in the Sunken Temple world
Introduced a slight delay to boomers exploding when they die, this should alleviate the lag associated with chain reactions.
Fixed an issue with Stormbringers basic attack being able to fire twice if you interrupted it with a Chain Lightning
Fixed an issue with skills that killed things instantly not refreshing their cooldown when muscle generator triggered on that kill
Enjoy!
