Tournament and iPhone Update is now LIVE!
We've just released a major update with a bunch of major new features. Let’s take a look at the list, shall we?
IPHONE CLIENT
We’ve envisioned SolForge as a mobile game from the beginning. We’ve always wanted to create a complete collectable game experience we could carry with us and play wherever we go. Now that dream is finally a reality.
This latest update brings the complete SolForge experience to iPhone, allowing you to carry SolForge with you in the palm of your hand. You can battle with your friends across the country over lunch, tinker with your favorite deck while waiting for the bus, and pass the time in your boring classes by cracking booster packs. Or, if you’re anything like us, now you have a new favorite way to spend your time in the bathroom…
Due to screen size constraints, some features such as the deck builder look a bit different on iPhone, but all of the major components are there, so you can take the full experience of SolForge wherever you may go. For those of you without iPhones, do not fret – our Android client is well underway, and we plan to begin the beta for it very soon.
TOURNAMENTS
Think your deck is the best around? Want to test your skills in a competitive environment? Well, you’re in luck. The new update introduces tournament play, which allows players to compete against one another for prizes.
Tournaments in SolForge are unlike those in many similar games in that you never need to worry about setting aside a big block of time to play. SolForge was designed from the ground up to be mobile friendly, and tournaments are no different. No need to wait around for other players to finish their rounds or for enough players to enter the event. You can play your rounds in a SolForge tournament whenever is convenient for you, and you’ll be paired against someone else at a similar place in their event. Once you finish your three matches, which you can complete over the course of days if that’s what you want, you’ll receive prizes based on your results.
Entering tournaments requires Event Tickets, which can be purchased with either Gold or Silver, as well as earned through daily rewards. All players receive prizes, and players who go undefeated in a tournament are guaranteed to receive at least enough Event Tickets to enter another tournament of that type as part of their prize.
Once we have some time to ensure our tournament system is running properly, we'll have more news to bring you about the Backer Only tournament. We are currently aiming to hold it in the first quarter of next year.

DRAFT MODE
As competitive collectible game players ourselves, one of our favorite things to do is draft. Drafting is a special kind of tournament in which you build your deck as you go instead of choosing one of your saved decks to play. This not only creates a level playing field for everyone no matter how long they may have been playing or how big a collection they might have, but also means that you have a totally new experience each time since you’re always playing with a different deck. It’s also a great way for players to grow their collections, since in addition to whatever prizes you might win, you also keep all of the cards that you draft.
Much like the rest of the SolForge experience, drafting is designed to be conducive to the mobile experience. You can draft wherever and whenever you want, and you don’t have to wait for a queue to fill or for other players to make their picks. The evaluations of other players still impact your draft, however. The algorithm used to generate the content of draft packs takes into account how frequently cards are picked by the community at large, so if you correctly identify a hidden gem, you’ll have a chance to grab them with your later picks.
We’ve been having a blast testing out the SolForge draft format over the past few months, and we’re incredibly excited that the rest of the world is going to have a chance to experience it too. The concurrent release of both drafting and the iPhone app means that you can always be drafting wherever you might go! If that isn’t exciting, I’m not sure what is!

NEW AND UPDATED CARDS
The update introduces twenty-four brand-new cards across all rarities, including six from each of the four different factions. These cards are now available from packs that are purchased from the store or acquired through daily rewards. These new packs can be identified in your inventory by their new artwork.
Additionally, changes have been made to a number of existing cards. These changes were made to improve gameplay in both Constructed and Draft play. For a full list of the changes, view the full patch notes on our website.
While we still have quite a few features we want to add to SolForge before we’ll consider it truly complete, this update is a huge step in that direction. We appreciate your support as we build this game we all love. Without our fans, SolForge would have never happened, and now people can draft from their phones! While we’re thrilled to have come this far, we have no intentions of resting on any laurels. We’re already hard at work on the second SolForge set and more features, which include tools for us to be able to introduce new content faster in the future.
In the meantime – we hope you enjoy playing SolForge this holiday season! We certainly will!
SolForge Open Beta and First Set is now LIVE!
WHAT’S NEW IN THIS UPDATE?
Complete SolForge Set One
We’ve been hard at work testing and balancing the approximately 180 cards that will make up our first real release. If you have been having fun exploring the deck building possibilities in SolForge so far, just imagine what it’s like now that the number of available cards has tripled and you can try out all kinds of new cards and combinations.
Booster Packs and Collection Management
With this new update, you can start building your collection in earnest. The SolForge store is now live, where you can buy booster packs to expand your collection. Any early access rewards and pre-ordered packs will be in your collection as soon as you log in.
There are three different kinds of booster packs in SolForge – the Basic pack, the Normal pack, and the Premium pack, with varying costs in SolForge currency. These packs have different numbers of cards and distributions of rarity to give players more flexibility looking for the cards they want for their collection. The Normal pack is the version that we have previously explained, with 8 cards across three guaranteed levels of rarity and a chance to contain the highest level of rarity. This is the kind of pack that is included as part of the Early Access rewards and 20 packs for 20$ promotion.
Free-to-Play
Up until now, SolForge has only been available as a limited beta. With this update, however, we’re going entirely free to play and open to the public. As we’ve said all along, we plan to make it possible to play and enjoy SolForge without spending anything at all. To that end, this update includes ways for players to earn content just by playing. Every day, you’ll be able to earn three different rewards – for simply logging in, completing games, and winning your first game.
Every account will also begin with two all-new free starter decks. These are two-faction decks designed to introduce players to SolForge. The cards in these starter decks are a part of the player’s collection and will provide a basis on which to build new decks.
Cross Platform Play
With this update, we have brought both PC and iOS platforms in sync, so each will have all of the same features. Not only that, but you can now access your account on any supported device, and play against any of your friends, no matter whether they’re playing on PC or iOS.
Game Timers
Looking to play a quick game? Tired of opponents who stop playing when it looks like they're beat? The new update has you covered! We have added the option to play timed games, with a clock that counts down while it is a player's turn to take an action. If the clock runs out, that player forfeits.
What are you waiting for? Your clock is ticking! Go play SolForge now!
Online Play is Live!
To play online, use the "Create Game" option, select your deck, and then choose either "Random Online Opponent" or "Online Friend". Random opponents you play against are added to your friends list automatically for ease of challenging them to a rematch, or you can search for other players you know with their username.
Happy battling!
