Hello Champions!

Following our goal to minimize the effects of a growing playerbase and giving you an experience closer from the original game, we've added the following features:

- AI


You'll now encounter Bots in the match. They will be present in one of the new game modes and also in Normal games (more details under the Matchmaking Changes section).

- New Game Modes


Thanks to the participation of the community, two new game modes were added:

  • Solo vs AI - On this mode, you can play alone against AI on the solo mode. We will add duo and squads on future updates.
  • 1 vs 1 - Two players will be matched to play against each other on a best of five. The gameplay will be similar to the last round of the solo mode.


The three base game modes are now called Normal game. The type of Normal game is still ramdomly selected.

- Matchmaking Changes


With the addition to the AI, we've made some updates on Normal game matchmaking.

  • The max number of players in normal games are 12.
  • After 2 minutes elapsed of the creation of the room, the remainig seats will be filled with Bots. We look forward to your feedback, since we can easily increase the queue duration.

- New UI features


Small updates on the UI were made to improve your experience:

  • Added a player online counter on the lobby screen;
  • Added a little description above each card of the game mode selection;
  • Added a description of wich game mode you are entering when playing Normal game;
  • The skills now show its designated hotkey on the ingame UI.

With all those updates we aim to improve your experience playing the game. We will keep working on the bots AI and also on new features. Keep tuned to the next updates!
