New Champions

The Templar

This Knight cuts through crowds, building her damage with each unit shifted:

She requires planning to maximize, but her damage scaling can pull off some quick victories.

The Acolyte

This Mage sacrifices the life of his allies to amplify damage to enemies:

He plays differently than other Mages: you can never deal more than 1 damage to a Champion, but you must target them! The multi-strike makes him a great Protect counter.

The Hunter

This Rogue ricochets his arrows to deal more damage when moving in curved paths:

If you played during the playtest, Hunter may seem familiar! He’s an evolution of our previous Ranger design. Now in Rogue form, his winding paths offer a new mini-puzzle to solve each turn.

All three new Champions are a bit more complex than the demo cast, and they open up new ways to work with the game's mechanics. We aren't announcing their Summons, Scrolls, or upgrades yet, but expect a steady stream of previews on our Discord.

These champions join the cast in the full game, which will release in Q4 2026. Until then, you can try our new demo and look forward to more content in updates coming soon!
