Patch Notes 10.1

Welcome in the New Year!

In the spirit of "new year, new me", our Draft Mode leaves early access, which means that some long awaited changes are coming to it!

Read more for details on that, and the upcoming balance changes below.

Seasonal modes in January

13.01. - 18.01. Switcheroo

After two turns players switch hands

18.01. - 25.01. Entrench

Each played unit has resilience

25.01. - 01.02. Plus One

Whenever you play a unit, spawn a 1-power copy of it at the end of it's row

01.02. - 08.02. Trial of the Grasses

Whenever a unit appears on the board, damage it by 2 then boost it by 4. If it's a Witcher, the damage is not dealt.

This season is planned to end on February 8th, 10:00 a.m. CET.
