Hey everyone!
We’re back with EA 6, a gameplay-focused update centered around reworking and refining Champion Abilities—some abilities have been completely redesigned, others improved for clarity or balance. This update also includes several quality-of-life improvements and bug fixes, especially for players using controllers.
⚔️ Major Champion Ability Changes:
Dungeonmaster: Buffed! You can now play new creatures over existing ones (enemy or ally). The replaced creature returns to the owner's deck (with enchantments intact), and the deck is shuffled.
Ratburg: Ability renamed to “Mob Up” and reworked — now only affects creatures with 0 or 1 Mana Cost, but doubles their Power permanently. Affected creatures now preview with the ability icon when hovering over it.
Valeena: Reworked — all friendly enchantments ignore their cooldown and activate immediately on the turn her ability is used.
Ghoul: Reworked and renamed to “Hour of Ghoul” — sets all currently enchanted enemy creatures' cooldowns to 4 turns.
Dracarath: Reworked — sacrifice a target friendly creature, heal for its base Power, and give +1 permanent Power to all other friendly creatures.
Battle Knight Wonder: Reworked for clarity — target creature gains (if allied) or loses (if enemy) Power equal to your number of creatures on the board.
Weeping Maiden: Reworked — her ability now adds your max Ability Power to your health until the end of the turn, giving her a clear defensive identity.
Stonewarden: Exploit fix — it’s no longer possible to repeatedly cancel golem summoning to fish for the strongest one.
Bulwark, Nocturne, and others: Fixed an issue where their Champion Abilities didn’t allow target selection when using a controller or keyboard.
🎮 Visual & Clarity Updates:
“Ability Active” text added when a Champion ability is used.
“Ability Active” will show in red, and “Ability Ready” now shows in green.
Improvements made to controller/keyboard support for Champion Abilities.
🏆 Achievement Fixes:
Graveborn Army and Feywild Pact achievements now increment and track correctly for Champion unlocks.
