Patch will be live Thursday, Mar 17th around 6:00pm EST!

Mini-Expansion #2 releases this patch along with the Gift of Yxxath! How do you pronounce Yxxath? Don't worry about that 😆 This 10 card expansion is centered around the Enchants of Skyweaver, and offers players new ways to employ and activate their distinct effects.

📺 The first player has some changes to their starting mana this patch. Read more under CHANGES ⚙️ down below!

New Features ⭐

  • Skyweaver’s second Mini-Expansion releases with this patch! This expansion of 10 new cards has an overarching theme. It's focused around a unique and integral part of Skyweaver’s gameplay: its Enchants!

Skyweaver Suggested Hardware

Improvements 🦾

  • On mobile devices with small screens, the wallet icon is now hidden from the navigation bar.
  • Improved art quality on units in-game. 🤩

Changes ⚙️

  • The player who goes first will now start with a Mana Crystal, which adds one mana when cast (formerly mana potion) attached to their hero instead of Mana Flask, which added two mana when cast, and will also have a second Mana Crystal added to their hand immediately after opening card selection. So the first player will have the same amount of mana as before, but split across two Mana Crystal spells, rather than one Mana Flask, allowing them to break up their Crystals over several turns if needed, offering them far more flexibility in how they use their mana in the earlygame, which should help significantly reduce the first vs second player winrate differentials.

Bugfixes 🐛

  • Forest Hart's trigger icon is now continuous, instead of the generic trigger icon.
  • Fixed a timing issue with Savage Garden where it was giving the enchant after the Elderwood summoned, instead of before.
  • Practice games no longer have a penalty for abandoning.
  • Fixed various typos... but you'll never know which ones! 😈

Cards

Welcome to Patch #90 everyone! Just ten patches away from 100 balance patches! Amazing!

This patch also marks the release of our second Mini Expansion, which we’ll be revealing the final two cards for here today! In addition to our usual card balance changes and the new Mini-Set Release, we also have a larger overarching balance change we’re putting into practice with this patch.

Instead of starting with a Mana Flask on their hero that they can use for two mana, the player who goes first will instead start with a Mana Crystal (our new name for Mana Potion) on their hero, just like the second player, but will also get a second Mana Crystal in their hand, so they get the same amount of mana as from the old Mana Flask, but split across two Mana Crystals, allowing them to break up their Crystals over two turns if needed.

So, they can play a 2 drop on turn one, and still save their other Mana Crystal for a later turn. This should be a sizable buff for the player going first, and should give them a lot more flexibility in their early to mid game playstyle, and help to even out the winrate differential between the first and second player a little more.

Demon Pact (5)

Demon Pact - Destroy target ally unit. Summon The Beast.

Text:

Dust target unit to summon The Beast for its player.

Destroy target ally unit. Summon The Beast.

A change/berf to a huge underperformer, Demon Pact’s ability to target enemy units was interesting in theory, but in practice it was almost never a worthwhile play. It also made the card confusing for new players, and if they did misunderstand the card and target an enemy unit with it, it would almost certainly result in a quick loss. We’ve simplified Demon Pact to only target ally units, as well as letting it Destroy the targeted ally unit, rather than Dusting it, allowing for greater synergy with Death effect units like Brimstone.


Grubbs (3065)

Grubbs - Summon: Dust the top unit of both graves to gain their traits.  (Guard over stealth.)

Cost:

2 1

Traits:

stealth None

Power:

2 1

We’re moving Grubbs down the curve while dropping 1 Power and Stealth, allowing it to serve as an earlier drop and be played more easily on later turns, which should make it more viable than it currently is.


Savage Garden (4079)

Savage Garden - Summon two Elderwood with Anima.

Text:

Summon two Elderwood with Anima and +1 power.

Summon two Elderwood with Anima.

Nerf to an overperformer, the Elderwood no longer gain +1 Power, making their baseline and post-Anima stats weaker.


Anchor Drop (4087)

Anchor Drop - Has -1 cost for each of your dead water cards. Attach Chains to target unit. Do 4 damage to it.

Cost:

5 6

Small nerf here, Anchor Drop has been a solid part of the dominant Sitti water decks, and with the adjustment to how opening Mana Crystals are handled, the first player can now discount it twice, so we’re increasing its cost to 6c to reduce its power slightly. It should remain a potent tool for Water-focused decks.


Mana Potion ➞ Mana Crystal (20017)

Mana Crystal - Gain 1 mana.

Name:

Mana Potion Mana Crystal

In addition to the new change to how starting Mana Potions and Flasks work, we’ve also updated the names to be more faithful to their appearance, so Mana Potion is now ‘Mana Crystal’ and Mana Flask is now ‘Twin Mana Crystal’.


Chain Golem (1073)

Chain Golem - Death: Attach Chains to enemies with traits.

Text:

Death: Attach Chains to enemies.

Death: Attach Chains to enemies with traits.

An adjustment to reduce the unfun interaction between Chain golem and Mana Crystals. Now Chain Golem only applies Chains to enemies with Traits, so it doesn’t lose any utility vs hero Armor or Banner, but it is now far less likely to chain off Mana Crystals early in the game.


Throne Blade (2041)

Throne Blade - Death: Add Wind Sword to your hand.

Text:

Death: Attach Wind Sword to your hero.

Death: Add Wind Sword to your hand.

Throne Blade is a card that has been languishing in obscurity for some time now, so we’re giving it a nice buff, akin to the boost Brimstone got a while back. Throne Blade now puts its Wind Sword spell into your hand, so it won’t conflict with Mana Crystals, or other beneficial hero attachments.


Spiderella (2056)

Spiderella - Glory: Attach Dazed with -1 cost to the
enemy hero.

Text:

Glory: Attach Dazed to the enemy hero.

Glory: Attach Dazed with -1 cost to the enemy hero.

Spiderella is getting a nerf by now applying a 0 cost Daze Enchant. Spiderella is a potent turn one play that can create non-games in a similar way that Mushka used to. To combat this, we’ve reduced the cost of the Dazed it applies to 0, so the player getting hit by it can always pay for Dazed and curve out like normal, but Spiderella can still stun your hero if she is able to continuously activate her Glory.


Doomsday (2084)

Doomsday - Destroy all units. Dust your three left-most cards in hand.

Text:

Attach Fate to each enemy unit. Destroy all units.

Destroy all units. Dust your three left-most cards in hand.

A fairly large change here. Doomsday is an interesting and potent boardclear for Wisdom, but frequently felt like it didn’t carry a large enough cost. Giving Fate to enemy units would frequently overflow their hand, limiting the value of the draws it gave them, and potentially shuffling back important cards or dealing face damage via forcing out of deck Conjures. Additionally, giving resources to your opponent would usually just cause games to drag out even longer, so we’ve flipped the script on Doomsday. Rather than refueling your opponent’s resources, it instead devours your own, dusting three cards in your own hand, which should be a more meaningful drawback, as you may be forced to lose important cards in order to clear the enemy board.


Take Flight (3030)

Take Flight - Return target unit  to hand. Give it +2/+1, 
-1 cost, and attach Shroud.

Cost:

3 2

Text:

Return target unit to hand. Give it +2/+2, -2 cost, and attach Shroud.

Return target unit to hand. Give it +2/+1, -1 cost, and attach Shroud.

A buff to the lowest winrate card in Heart, Take Flight is an interesting tool that hasn’t really seen a huge amount of play at 3c, so we’re moving it to 2c, while adjusting the buffs it provides accordingly, which should make it easier to fit into early or mid game turns alongside other plays without sacrificing as much tempo.


Trident True (3068)

Trident True - Sunset: If you have no mana, attach Mana Crystal.

Text:

Sunset: If you have no mana, attach Mana Potion.

Sunset: If you have no mana, attach Mana Crystal.

Power:

2 3

Health:

3 2

Trident True is trading 1 Health for 1 Power. Trident True has always seen a good amount of play, but since the prevalence of the Sitti Water deck, it has been a showstopper. Trident nearly always gives you a draw by overwriting the Vapors with a Mana Crystal, and if it survives it can ramp you into another powerful unit on the following turn. We felt like this was too powerful when rushed out T1, often resulting in a play pattern that’s extremely hard to deal with, so we’ve traded 1 Health for 1 Power, letting it hit a bit harder while also reducing its survivability.


Leonitus (4090)

Leonitus - After another ally unit is summoned,
attach Zap to it.

Power:

3 2

Leonitus is losing some bite in the form of a -1 Power nerf. Leonitus is a card we recently changed to lose its synchronous application of Zap to both player’s units. This change gave rise to strategies using its effect to pop Vapors and Anima, which we love, but we also think it was a little too strong given the loss of its downside. We’ve moved it to 2 Power to reduce some of its aggression, while still letting it be a potent utility tool.


Memesis (20024)

Memesis - Dust your hand. Draw a card for each card in the enemy hand.

Cost:

3 4

Memesis is moving from 3 to 4 mana. Psyche, and by extension Memesis is always a topic of discussion. Some people think it is too good for Strength as a draw tool, and while we agree that Strength is generally not supposed to have the best draw options, we also think it is thematic for Strength to have cards that punish your opponent for playing greedy strategies. However, Memesis was a bit too cheap for the massive draw potential it could provide, and we have moved it to 4 cost to combat this.


Ada's Valor (102)

Ada's Valor - Do 4 damage to target enemy unit. Attach Blind to enemy units and give ally units stealth.

Text:

Do 3 damage to target enemy unit. Attach Blind to enemy units and give ally units stealth.

Do 4 damage to target enemy unit. Attach Blind to enemy units and give ally units stealth.

Ada’s Valor is getting a buff from 3 to 4 damage. Valor is a card that showcases Ada’s personality. She’ll rush into the face of danger and put her life on the line to protect those in need at the drop of a hat. Valor has been slightly underperforming, so we’ve given it slightly more bite to let it deal with a wider range of units.


Pharonis (3100)

Pharonis - Sunset: Summon your bottom dead unit as 4/4 with guard.

Health:

7 6

A small -1hp nerf here. while we want strong finishers like Pharonis to be available, it's also clear that Pharonis’ power is currently leaps and bounds above his competition as he can quickly take over a game if not immediately answered, so we’re dropping 1hp off him to make him more vulnerable to common removal like Chomp, Seal of Doom, and Maelstrom, making it a tiny bit squishier overall.


Sky Keeper (1090)

Sky Keeper - Sunrise and sunset effects don't trigger at the start or end of turns.

Text:

Sunrise and sunset effects don't trigger.

Sunrise and sunset effects don't trigger at the start or end of turns.

A minor change, Sky Keeper has been reworded to make it clear that it does not stop the effect of Bewitching Brew. Otherwise it is exactly the same as always.


Amaruath's Will - Attach Anima to units in your deck without an attachment. Draw a unit.

Amaruath’s Will is a particularly exciting build around option for Strength, which historically hasn't had too many build-arounds. Anima is a very interesting enchant, as there are lots of cards that synergize with overwriting it, but finding enough units with Anima to build a dedicated deck around it was tricky due to the low number of units with Anima that were available. Amaruath’s Will helps solve this issue, and encourages players to try out new deck archetypes centered on stat-focused units without attachments that will can apply Anima to, especially units like Hope, Earth Warden and Ghost Duster which can auto-dust their own attachments on summon. Amaruath’s Will opens up some really exciting new deckbuilding possibilities, and we’re so excited to see where your playerbase can take it.


Jade Guardian - After another ally unit is summoned, attach Anima to that unit.

In a similar Vein to Will, Jade Guardian offers another means of spreading around Anima enchants. As it places Anima onto any unit you summon, Guardian works great with units like Light ranger and Earth Warden, but also has fantastic synergy with cards like Rage Cage and Undergrowth, allowing you to buff up units with attachments, or those that are summoned from the graveyard. It also works very well when pulled out by cards like Cast in Chrome and Jar of Souls, due to having Anima itself.


Silent Warden - After another unit is summoned, attach Silence to it. (Does not stop Play effects.)

Coming from the other end of the spectrum, Silent Warden makes use of his enchant-placing capabilities to disable and nullify the effects of other units. Warden can negate Death, Inspire, and even Summon effects, rendering cards like Allbane ineffective. Warden also serves as a valuable stopgap to combo-focused decks like Zam, forcing any combo decks to remove it before they can play their combo, as Warden can swiftly silence any powerful Inspire units that may arise. However, you’ll want to watch out for opposing units with Anima and Vapors!


Runecalling - For each element among target hero's units, add a Rune spell of that element to your hand.

A particularly exciting new addition, Runecalling is a callback to Godlike, a card which placed “good” enchant on ally units and “bad” enchants on enemy units with each unit getting the appropriate enchant of its element. While Godlike was interesting, the definition of good enchants vs bad enchants was not something we could properly display on the card itself. Runecalling achieves a similar result while being easier to understand, and offering even more tactical options. Runes can be used immediately or saved for later, and allow you more freedom in how enchants are placed. You can give Frostbite to an enemy’s fire unit, or buff your own metal unit using an Earth Rune’s Anima. Each rune also has Banner, allowing for flexibility in how your hero attacks. The variety of elements that Runecalling generates can even help set up rainbow synergies, powering up classic cards like Meng’Long and Sky Phoenix!


Bewitching Brew - Attach Hex to target unit. Trigger the sunrise and sunset effects of all enchants.

A flavorful piece of removal for Heart, Bewitching Brew has a fairly solid baseline, as doing 6 damage to a unit for 4 mana, while not as good as something like Mortal Blow, is still respectable, but its real strength lies in its ability to trigger every other Enchant’s Sunrise and Sunset ability at the same time. A spell like Dark rune can suddenly deal six to a secondary unit, and every Shroud will instantly be removed, which can leave enemy units vulnerable, and finally, Ill Will can turn into a one-sided 6 damage AOE, devastating nearly any enemy board, and Brew can only improve as more ways to spread Hex and Flames are added in the future. How Bewitching!


Encantadora - Enchants on allies are 1 cost. After an enchant on an ally is dusted or removed, gain +1/+1.

Encantadora, Queen of the Sea, cherishes the ocean and its inhabitants more than anything in Sky. A loving and unrelentingly knowledgeable leader who rules with her coral crown, bestowed unto her by Cryogen before the Day of Frost. Encantadora sets the cost of all enchants to 1, letting you buff allies with Anima, draw cards with Vapors, and even easily discard debuffs like Hex. Every time you cast one of these enchants, dust, or overwrite them, Encantadora will gain +1/+1. There are some pretty incredible combos you can pull off with her, but it will take some patience to set them up. When combined with cards like School of Fish and Forcefield, she can really demonstrate her power!


Gift of Yxxath - Draw your lowest cost unit with an enchant. Attach a copy of its enchant to target hero's ally units.

Gift is an incredibly unique card with an interesting effect that offers a lot of flexibility. It fits into Int’s identity of controlled draws while letting you decide if you want a way to damage enemy units or buff your own, depending on how your deck is built. You might use Fox Familiar to apply Quest to your Units, or use Rage Cage/Glacia and apply Flames/Frostbite and devastate the enemy board. It’s a minigame that you can build your deck around, and can give you a good amount of flexibility as the game goes on. As a final note, for anyone still wondering, ‘Yxxath’ is pronounced ‘Yick-Zath.’


Chainlasher - Summon: Attach Chains to all other units. Gain +1 power for each Chains attached this way.

Chainlasher offers Agility another means of lashing aside those pesky guard units that Wisdom loves so much. While Lasher’s effect is quite powerful, it does apply Chains to your own units, which means you should probably attack with your hero first so as to not lose any Banner value, or possibly follow Chainlasher up with something like Forcefield. In playtesting we commonly saw it reach 7/5 in stats, but token strategies might make it even more potent.


Broom Shroom - Summon: Dust attachments on units. Give your hero +1 health for each dusted.

A possible contender to usurp Ma Shroom as the game’s most adorable card, we have the far less spooky cousin of Doom Shroom, ‘Broom Shroom.’ When summoned, Broom Shroom will tidy up any errant attachments on units, “Dusting” them off the board and giving your hero +1 Health for each attachment removed. This ability lets her combo with many powerful enchant focused cards, like Full Bloom, Amaruath’s Will, and especially the Heart Prism’s very own Undergrowth, which can revive her and two other 2 cost or less units while also attaching Anima to them, which Broom Shroom can then Dust off to immediately give all three of them +2/+2!

Hunter's Howl - Draw a unit with a summon effect. Attach Fury to units in your hand.

Hunter’s Howl lets players embrace their inner Fury, drawing a Unit with a Summon effect and applying Fury to all the cards in their hand. Howl can easily set up combos with cards like Speedster and Bolt, letting you counteract their negative Enchants while allowing them to auto-trigger Fury. Played in aggressive strategies, it lets every unit in your hand serve as a potential play extender, letting you refuel with 1 cost cards and cycle through your deck if your opponent doesn’t have the tools to clear your board.
