The Monster Within Patch Notes — April 7, 2022
Aggregated from Steam, cross-tracked with Battle.net coverage on GamePatchNote.
I hope everyone has been enjoying the Werewolf . But people who turn into wolves is so 17th century. It's time for a new, hip monster who all the kids will love. The Warlock!
Look at him in his priest robes, the 12-16 demographic are going to love him. The Warlock is all about drawing power from your demonic benefactors and casting spells. Spells are a special kind of effect that don't trigger until the start of your next turn. If a card says Spell: 2 Attack, that means you gain that attack next turn. And spells happen in the order you played them. So if you play a spell that gives you double attack this turn, then play one that gives you 2 attack, you end up with 4 attack! And then if you have an effect that recasts your spells... well you can get up to all kinds of combos.
Warlock is a fairly standard monster in terms of what health his cards show up at. Some Night cards, some Monster cards, he plays similarly to the Vampire and the Blob except instead of trying to keep a counter up or down, you're trying to set up big combo plays. But if you want to cast some spells in broad daylight, you're in luck with his first mashup monster...
Deep from out the bayou comes the Swampkin! The Plant's second mashup monster, with this monster a new suite of day focused spells are added to your magical arsenal. This will make Plant the second monster with both of its mashups. Do you want to play as the Zombie or the Swampkin, the choice is yours!
I hope everyone enjoys the Warlock when he comes to The Monster Within at the end of April. What, isn't it already April? Better get back to work!
