Patch v0.9.7 is Live!

v0.9.7* Dev Notes

Hi All!

We've been super busy as of late preparing the iPad version as well as versions for other countries so we apologize for the lack of updates. That said we are thrilled to bring you patch v0.9.7 which includes a LOT of bug fixes, new music and sfx, a VIP system and more!

New Music and SFX

We have finally created new music and sound effects for the game, complete list to come.

VIP System

We have added a VIP system to reward players whom buy gems. First reward is a legendary card and you need to purchase a total of 100 Gems to receive him, and then there is various other unlocks as you spend more. This has been added as a thank you to all our supporters. It will only start counting after the next update.
General Amar - Whenever this creature deals damage to enemy hero: Summons a creature card from your hand into an empty ally slot. If no empty slots, enemy hero loses 2 ^ instead

New 10 Card packs

We have decided to update the packs to now contain 10 cards, this to match draft and sealed packs. So each pack (silver core is excluded) now contains 6 Commons, 3 Uncommon and 1 Guaranteed rare or better card.

New Pack pricing

With the change in Pack composition we also reviewed the cost structure and have decided to now go with the following three price tiers.
Core:
- Single: 10 gems or 5,000 Gold.
- 3 Pack: 25 gems
Older Sets (Currently Eve and Rise):
- Single 15 gems or 7,500 Gold
- 3 Pack: 39 gems
- 10 Pack: 109 Gems
Latest Set:
- Single: 25 gems
- 3 Pack: 69 gems
- 10 Pack: 199 gems

Bugs/Minors

Guild War Battles

Hi all,

Guild War battles should now be fixed, again. We apologize for the inconvenience but the bug was a bit tricky to track down. It should be back up and working as intended.

The current wars will end when the season timer at the top hits 6 days left (as of this post, about 22h left) and we are looking at a permanent fix that would prevent this from happening again.

Thank you for your understanding and support!

Happy battling :)

Patch v0.9.6.3 is Live!

v0.9.6.3 Dev Notes

Pushed @ 5:15PM EST on August 6th, 2013

Progressive Login System

After much debate we decided to remove the previous progressive login system and introduce a new one. The previous system was too much of a double edged sword. People loved when it grew, but hated as soon as they lost it.
The new system is much friendlier and works as follows:
- players now just need to login X times during one month
- 10 times = 20 gems
- 20 times = A random Core Epic

Advanced Tutorials

We have added 7 advanced tutorials, these can be accessed on the world map. Each completed tutorial rewards a core premium pack.

Guild Honor Earn

We have increased the Honor earn for each guild tier as follows.
- Bronze: 2 Honor per win, 2 honor per defense
- Silver: 3 Honor per win, 2 honor per defense
- Gold: 3 Honor per win, 2 Honor per defense
- Epic: 3 Honor per win, 3 Honor per defense

Guild Tier Advancement bonus

We have added a bonus that gets paid to all members of a guild that advances to a higher tier at the end of the season. Payout is as follows.
Bronze to Silver: 1st: 20 Gems per player, 2nd: 15 Gems per player, 3rd: 10 Gems per player
Silver to Gold: 1st: 30 Gems per player, 2nd: 25 Gems per player, 3rd: 20 Gems per player
Gold to Epic: 1st: 40 Gems per player, 2nd: 35 Gems per player, 3rd: 30 Gems per player

Guild EPIC league Gem rewards

We are now rewarding each guild a pot of Gems in EPIC league at the end of season based on placement as follows:
- 1st: 800 Gems
- 2nd: 650 Gems
- 3rd: 500 Gems
- 4th: 400 Gems
- 5th: 350 Gems
- 6th: 300 Gems
- 7th: 250 Gems
- 8-10th: 200 Gems

Dynamic Market Single Prices

Tier 1 (Latest, currently TRIBES):
Legendary - Max: 599, Min: 299
Epic - Max: 199, Min: 25
Rare - Max: 129, Min: 15
Uncommon - Max: 89, Min: 5
Common - Max: 29, Min: 2

Bugs/Minors

- Deck slot purchase price reduced to 10 gems from 25
- Fixed pricing bug when buying cards from Deck builder
- Tinker now properly puts a creatures corpse in the discard pile
- Creatures lose status effects and any added abilities upon death now
- Chat is now back to normal (latest at the bottom) for web versions of the game
- Hero Ability drop down from edit deck menu was enlarged to appear less crammed
- Woeful Misery - AI will now only target enemy creatures
- Vul'Grath's Staff Of Repression removes random charges now
- Properly track out of sync's per battle type, which is typically the sign of exploitation. Fair warning: Frequent amount of these in a tournament battle may result in a temporary ban or further action
