Birthday Offers
During the event, there will be three special offers with avatars for people willing to put some money to the game.
This special shop offers are now available to be purchased 3 times each, while only the first one with the Avatar, and the rest with the standard content, excluding the Avatar (because players will already own the exclusive Avatar after buying the offer for the first time).
New Card
With the New Fortress Leveling System and other updates complete, we’re back to releasing new cards!
Check out Celestial Summoners, a new epic Ancient card, now available in the game!
New Card Offers
With this update, we've improved the appearance and the mechanic of the new card offers to make them more attractive. These offers are grouped under one banner, allowing players to switch between levels by clicking on the "Level 1, Level 3, Level 5" buttons.
When a new card is released, the offer will be divided into 3 offers:
- Level 1 Offer: Gives New card and Resources.
- Level 3 Offer: Gives Card copies and Resources for upgrading the card to Level 3.
- Level 5 Offer: Gives Card copies and Resources for upgrading the card to Level 5.
These offers will function similarly to the previous ones: they will provide card copies and resources that are specifically matched to the rarity of the cards.
What's more, players can only purchase an offer if the level it gives is higher than the current level of the card you have. For example:
- If your card is at Level 1, you can’t buy the Level 1 offer.
- If your card is at Level 4, only the Level 5 offer is available.
- Pricing depends on the current level of the card you have and its rarity.
BALANCE CHANGES
This release, just like any other, will bring some balance changes.
- Olf the Hammer's strength is now 6/7/8/10/12 (down from 7/8/9/11/13), and the ability now gives 3/3/4/4/5 to your base (changed from 3/3/4/5/6).

New Brawl
A new Brawl modifier is launching on August 29th, 2024, featuring the new Celestial Summoners card. This modifier lets you experiment with and enjoy the card before deciding whether to add it to your collection.
As usual, a 0-mana, level 1 version of the new card will automatically be added to everyone’s deck, regardless of ownership or upgrades. This means all decks will temporarily contain 13 cards, giving you an exciting opportunity to explore new strategies with Celestial Summoners.
