Season of Magic and Update 9.0 are LIVE!
Patch 9.0 marks the release of our newest expansion "Once upon a Pyre", but while it definitely steals the spotlight, there are some other changes and improvements coming to the game.
One of them is a widely requested feature to be able to change the look of the "Play" card in the Main Menu, another important one is making the game faster by progressing, even if some visual effects were played and didn't finish yet.
Additionally our developers have a couple of words to say on the topic of new balance changes, and share some insight. Read on that and more in detail below.
Developer comment: First and foremost the main event of this patch is obviously the release of the first of the Price of Power set. To that purpose, we've made a bunch of small changes and adjustments to support it.
The other big event is the long awaited Northern Realms rework! We've decided to move away from design of giving Charges to the profit of the less restrictive and more flexible Cooldown mechanic. Charges as a mechanic stays in the game but from now as a self-contained one.
As a side topic, we keep giving attention to leader abilities to increase the diversity and to give them more identity.
Seasonal modes in April:

22.06.. - 29.06. Battle Rush
Both players have just 8 seconds to complete their turn and 15 seconds to complete the redrawing phrase.
29.06. - 06.07. Double Down

Welcome to the Draft update! We know that we've been quiet for some time, but worry not, we didn't forget about the format and we're planning bigger changes in the near future. With 8.5 we introduced changes to existing packages which allow for better balance. We've also added the 12 new cards from the 8.3 update to the roster! Enjoy!

Season of the Elf and Update 8.4 are LIVE!
This time, we introduce some quality of life changes (like the renaming of the tabs in the Quests section), visual improvements (Adrenaline has now additional VFX!), and balance changes. Some of the things, we already made available during last month, like the new Reward Trees and Seasonal Changes. We decided to release them earlier, since they didn't require a client update, so we were happy to bring them in as soon as they were finished. In this update, we're expanding on them even more, adding fresh content to both features.
You can read all the details below.
