Patch Notes
Major Updates
Free to play launch
We are excited to announce the public early release of Infinity Wars Classic! The game is no longer locked for non-patreons and we have just started the Intrigue set Kickstarter. Along with this, we have the introduction of the CTCG model, so tell your friends and get them involved so they can play with every single card in the game, for free, just by making an account!
For more info on the CTCG model, check out this video we did revealing our direction from earlier last year.

New Quest System
Gain 3 Quests every day, and lock in your favourites. There are over 30 quests currently implemented, with more coming soon.
Be sure to lock in any quests you wish to keep over multiple days, as they refresh every 24 hours.
New Premade decks
12 new premade decks have been added, replacing the old outdated decks. These include decks provided by our amazing community, such as Gameipedia, and Tyrantherus. We'll probably be doing another deck building competition after the Kickstarter, this one went really well.
Minor Updates
Complete user interface scaling support
All menu screens in both main menu and in-game now fully support different resolutions including 16:9, 16:10, 12:9, 32:9, 3:2 and more.
Deck Favouriting system
Major improvements have been made to user decks, including "last time played" checks, so that your custom deck list is sorted with your favourited and most recently played ones at the top of the list.
Deck Builder Improvements
The deckbuilder has received another pass of internal improvements, including better performance, better filtering for card types, stats and search functionality. We have also adjusted the size of cards in the deck builder for better visibility.
New Ingame and Menu vfx
A huge new pass has been done to both menus and ingame abilities with dozens of new particles effects.
New sound effects
The menus have received a number of new sound effects to create a better audio experience, with even more on the way.
Faction based Music
When playing games, the music will change based on the purity of your deck.
New Premade decks
12 new premade decks have been added, replacing the old outdated decks. These include decks provided by our amazing community.
Card Updates
Balance Changes
With the public release and the Intrigue Kickstarter happening, balance changes mostly be delayed until after Intrigue's full release in 3 weeks as the team focuses on other areas. However we do have a few small changes of already released intrigue cards:
Tygris, Politically Inclined
Removed deploy requirement.
The token "Lord" effect we felt was playing out a bit lower impact than expected, and thus wanted to try out Tyrgis as more of a command zone option.
Carlotta, Queen of Solace
Attack prevention ability now only effects the opponent
The Queen of Solace's ability previously prevented an Overseers deck from fulfilling its own go-wide plans. So we have removed the restriction from yourself.
Bek
Gains +2/+2
This dragon based Character needs to get onto the battlefield, so we have increased her stats so she can survive there more often.
Astatoth
Damage trigger changed from an end step trigger -> "When Astatoth is dealt damage for the first time each turn"
This small buff means that Astatoth doesn't need to survive till the end of turn, meaning he no longer is sometimes anti-synergistic with his unstoppable keyword.
