Major Updates
New Mastermind: Ace
Ace
Your fighter with the most damage dealt each wave permanently gains 40 HP and 1.5% attack speed.
Strategy tips:
Fighters with damage reduction, evasion, or regeneration, like Green Devil, Yozora, and Bone Crusher make good use of the HP.
Ramping fighters like Sky Queen, Berserker, and Doppelganger make good use of the attack speed.
Some fighters like Priestess, Lumerian, and melee DPS make good use of the HP and attack speed.
Expensive fighters generally benefit more from Ace.
New Skin: Hellfire Iron Maiden
PvE
Just for this patch, we're testing PvE as a separate queue!
The goal is to make everyone happier. PvE players can enjoy PvE 24/7, and classic players can enjoy good ole classic 24/7. If queue times are reasonable, we'll consider keeping this change long-term.
Game Balance
Read more about our design philosophy on game balance, and use Drachbot to see mastermind, unit, and spell win rates and pick rates!
King
King Steam post image
Base health decreased by 13%
Base autoattack damage increased by 200%
Lightning Hammer: Percent health damage: 2% --> 0%
Increased per-wave king scaling slightly
Upgrade Spell: 6% → 8%
Upgrade Attack: 10% → 8%
Fixed a bug where Rocko's Impale was doing too much damage to the king (decreased max stacks against the king from 10 --> 5)
These changes make the king stronger against big mercenaries in the early game and smooth out its power against waves (was previously too weak on waves 6, 13, and 18 and too strong on wave 20).
Legion Spells
All Out Assault
Mythium: 110 → 100
Income: -20 → -12
All Out Assault was too coin-flippy.
Magic Lamp
Gold: 13 → 10
Very high pick rate. Magic Lamp shouldn't be the default choice, but rather a calculated one.
Smite
Gold: 75 → 78
Slightly low pick rate and win rate.
Protector
HP regeneration: 0.6% → 0.8%
Low win rate.
Fighters

Balance Watchlist

Strong: Scrapper, Elite Archer, Mr. Brewpot
Weak: Ranger, Yozora, Aqua Spirit
Improvements
Fixed an issue where community creation purchases didn’t go through the first time.
Fixed Bulgarian font
Fixed a bug causing the “delete old logs” popup to take priority over item unlocks
Fixed Moneylender bug that allowed you to lend with the previous waves values, after already having received income from that wave
