NEW BALANCE UPDATES IN 2.1.3 UPDATE
Our latest update, version 2.1.3, is now live, bringing important card balance adjustments! Here's a detailed look at what's new:
Card Balance Adjustments
Proximity Minefield:
Deploy Time: +3 sec (from 0 -> 3)
Damage: -33%
The Proximity Minefield has recently seen a resurgence in popularity, which is notable given its last tuning in September. Its near-instant deploy time and high damage-to-cost ratio made it a powerful tool against large groups of units. By adding a 3-second delay to its activation time, we aim to make it more challenging to use effectively. This change also opens up opportunities for quick-hitting Tactical Support like Stun or Sidewinder Strike to counter it more easily. We’ll continue to monitor its performance to see if further adjustments are needed.
Plasma Launcher:
Damage: -22%
Burn Damage: -50%
Health: -21%
The Plasma Launcher has been a hot topic in the forums recently and has been under review for some time. Its long range should be its primary advantage, but it proved to be too valuable at a 4-cost. By reducing its health to align better with other mid-health turrets and decreasing its overall damage by 34%, we aim to create more opportunities for new strategies to thrive.
Dark Energon Strike:
Damage: -20%
Dark Energon has been a formidable addition to the game since its introduction, serving as a crucial counter to heavily armored tanks like Scorponok and Grimlock. Despite previous adjustments, data and community feedback indicate that further tuning is necessary. A slight damage reduction brings its damage-to-cost ratio more in line with other 6-cost cards like Neutron Bomb and ensures that Dark Energon Strike no longer kills units like Optimus Prime, Megatron, and Rhinox (at level). We will continue to monitor this card for future updates.
Sunstreaker:
Range: -0.5 (from 5.5 -> 5.0)
Neutron Bomb
Damage: -7%
We are excited for you to experience the new balance changes. Dive into the 2.1.3 update today, and as always, please let us know your feedback!
