Balance

Arcane Ring

  • Damage 20 > 25 (Total Damage 160 > 200)


Black Hole

  • Duration 6 > 1.5
  • Minions will keep their original target from before they are affected by Black Hole
  • Developer Comments
  • Black Hole's change comes about as a response to the card simply being far too versatile for its intended usage. Black Hole has consistently been one of the most powerful cards in the game, and a lot of the meta has been defined by the potential to completely shut down a lot of counters. We didn't want to move it back to 3 mana due to the fact that the card massively underperformed the last time we made the nerf, so we opted for this change where the ability to dodge certain spells is still very much possible in the hands of a skilled player, but it no longer can completely shut down everything.

Bridge Shrine

  • Health increased 300 > 350


Caber Tosser

  • Damage increased 80 > 90


Crossbow Guild

  • Health increased 400 > 450


High-Mage Leiliel

  • Damage increased 35 > 40
  • Attack Speed decreased 1.7 > 2.0
  • Now has the AoE attack of Crystal Arcanist


Leiliel’s Vortex

  • Mana Freeze 2 > 1
  • Damage 100 > 80

Lord-Sentinel Thelec

  • Damage 70 > 55


Morgrul the Swarmer King

  • Health decreased 240 > 225
  • Attack Speed increased 1.5 > 1.1
  • Damage decreased 35 > 25 (Overall DPS is only slightly lowered)
  • Developer Comments
  • This minor nerf is primarily to consolidate Morgrul’s stats with Elite Swarmer.


Red Golem

  • Reworked: Now summons a Blue Golem. If you have 50% or less life, summon a Red Golem instead.
  • Red Golem has 50% more HP and Damage than Blue Golem
  • Developer Comments
  • Red Golem's change is a product of us trying to consolidate how we handle minion scaling in general to try and make it more consistent, and less volatile. We also feel the card has been very underplayed for quite a while, so we're hoping this change might also affect it in that area.


Spawn of Fury

  • Damage & Health Reduction increased 25% > 33%
  • Developer Comments
  • Spawn of Fury has been largely dominant, so we believe a nerf to the stats of the units it produces should help keep it in line.


Swarmer Totem

  • Production Speed increased 7 > 6


Wall

  • Health increased 600 > 700


Woodsman

  • Damage increased 80 > 90


Misc


  • The Max Health indication has been changed when a unit’s health is buffed (i.e. Spirit) to make it easier to understand how much the card has been buffed.
  • Some Buff names have been changed to shorter versions, or terms that are more indicative of their effect (Energized > Mana Surge, Enraged > Rage, etc.)
  • A lot of cards have had their descriptions changed to better separate Flavour from Mechanics.
  • Mayhems now appear in the carousel when they are available.
  • Updated unit formations for 3 and 5 count minion cards.
