Greetings spirits!
Thank you for taking the cat's deal and being among the first souls to join us in the board - it has been a wild few days with so many new players. We are humbled by everyone who took the chance on our Early Access game, and grateful to have you here!
We are also very thankful to the creators who have shared both their builds and feedback with us! Don’t forget to check out their builds & channels via the Duels Feature Builds.
Here are just some of our favourite clips from this last week:
PatchXIII’s 1TK (shoutout to our namesake!)
Please feel free to share any great moments we may have missed, we would love to see them!
Once again, thank you for your support and to any of our players who took the time to leave us feedback. We try to watch as many videos/streams as we have time for, and we are always checking our Discord for bugs, feedback and suggestions.
If you have been here since the Demo, you know we aim to put out patches and fixes at least every week - we already did our first hotfix on Friday and this is our first real patch. In it, we have done our best to fix the most broken items, reworked the balancing, and implemented the most requested gameplay changes. Onto the patch notes:

“Uprising”
Every 3 Tiles that are destroyed on your Board, give +2 Power and +2 Health to your Attack Tiles.
Gameplay Changes:
When using a rematch token, the coin will now always flip the other way. This ensures that you can't randomly get the exact same outcome again.
Reduced the sell area to prevent accidental selling, added underglow to better highlight when a sell will occur.
Visual Changes:
Items in the shop now have a shadow, and a persistent rarity glow .
Fixed a bug where you would not be granted Steam achievements if you had already unlocked the achievement in the demo. All missing achievements are automatically granted the next time you enter the main menu.
Fixed visual issues with Brambleline item, growth stage 5.
Fixed a hard crash caused by the item shake animation.
Fixed shield animation bug, which causes the taunt visual to break.
Fully charged items which wake up, now use their charges when they were supposed to use them before.
Fix a potential bug causing duplication of duel slots.
Fix a visual bug, when the Hero dies from poison and gets revived.
Duel code Inputfield now defaults to upper case letters
Share Code Popup does not cover the board anymore
