We’re making this change to:
Create consistency between how gameplay flows both inside and outside of combat.
Create higher-stake decisions especially in the late game.
Reduce empty and unnecessary pass and pass backs.
Changed: “Cast” cards have been adjusted to activate when you Play a card.
Changed: Targeting now activates when you Play a card.
The vast majority of these are card buffs with some slight tweaks and a few nerfs.
We’re making these changes to:
Unify the timing of our Spell Listeners to increase consistency and understandability.
Increase gameplay satisfaction of playing with cards like Lux or Heimerdinger.
Increase the overall utility of slow spells.
Clean up the space for new mechanics.
This might be hard to fully grasp right away, so take some time to experiment!
Once the patch drops, let us know how you feel about the changes!
No gameplay rules are changing based on these updates, theyre visual-only.
Two gems have been added to the button to indicate turn status.
A lit gem means the player on that side has committed an action.
Once both gems are lit, actions will be resolved or the round ends.
Attacker Chevrons: Attackers have a red, pointy indicator if theyre going to hit the opponents Nexus.
They lose it if theyre blocked or reduced to 0 power.
Ruined Dravens Spinning Axe will be updated with new VFX in patch 3.7.0 as well.
Time to shut up.
Oracles Eye will now interact correctly with a level two Rumble.
Fixed an issue where the visuals for Restored Sun Dic would remain after leaving Oracles Eye.
Fixed an issue where Landmarks offered after playing Stoneweaving had incorrect costs.
Fixed an issue where Blighted Caretaker was not correctly using optional targeting.
Spellshield will now correctly block Despairs effect.
