May 6th
Sea Brawls:
As we previously announced in our roadmap, there are many changes coming to Sea Brawls.
Exclusion Mechanism:
With an expanded minion pool it will eventually become very difficult to find the minion you need the most. Therefore an exclusion mechanism will be added to balance out the wide variety of minions in the pool. At the start of the game, before choosing your rune, you can see which class is excluded from the game for all players. All runes, minions, equipment, spells and traps that work on that class will be excluded from the game.
A new in-game currency:
At the moment the only currency to buy minions and equipment is gold. We were not entirely satisfied with this system because it forced decisions to be made about whether to prefer a minion, a roll, or an equipment.
We are introducing a new type of currency: swords!
At the end of combat you will get swords depending on the outcome:
1 sword for a defeat;
2 swords for a draw;
3 swords for a victory;
4 swords if you are in a streak.
Swords will allow you to buy equipment and other items, gold will remain for minions and roll. This system will also counterbalance the game progression, where, at the moment, winning combats at the beginning brings no actual advantage.
Traps and Spells:
You now can buy traps during your turn and place them on the battlefield. Traps are single use cards triggered by events during combat, once triggered they just disappear.
Spells are cards that apply an effect and just like traps they are single use.
Traps and spells, once used, do not return into the pool.
Goblins are now Mercenaries!
