Happy holidays everyone! This update brings online PvP (first version) and some improvements. This first version of PvP supports host/join/spectate via game codes. Lobbies, match-making and friends are planned for future releases. Join the Discord to look for players willing to fight! Including me ;)
I also received feedback regarding early game difficulty and will draft a plan to smoothen out the experience for new players. There's an idea of making a "card school" next to the (or inside the) Card Shop where you can learn more about different deck and element archetypes, as well as get or buy full starter decks. Let me know what you think!
