NEW! Featured Game Mode: Hybrid
Featured game modes are a new way to play the game with special rules and mechanics. They're just for fun and will occasionally be enabled on weekends.
The next featured game mode is Hybrid 2v2, in which your fighters are replaced with "tiers." Each time you build a tier, you get a random fighter from that tier.
Hybrid 2v2 will be enabled from Friday 4/12 - Sunday 4/14.
NEW! Legion: Shrine
A lost civilization of long-standing traditions. One of their core values is respect for the dead, and they constructed a gate symbolically connecting the worlds of the living and the dead. One night, there was a strange crescent moon with an eerie reddish hue. Upon visiting the gate, they noticed what was once a white rope that warded off the spirits was now stained dark red. The inhabitants of the Shrine began experiencing oddities in their everyday lives, catching glimpses of the dead, and feeling an impending sense of doom. The realm of the dead grows larger every night, creeping and expanding its unholy dominion. The Shrine is no longer welcome to the living.

Game Fixes & Improvements
Classic Queue Matchmaking
- Now has fairer matchmaking. It still forms matches as fast as possible, but once a match is formed, it shuffles teams based on hidden ratings that take into account both ranked and classic skill.
- Significantly lowered party rating penalties, which were sometimes unintentionally limiting players from partying when they had a very high-rated player in their party
Ranked Matchmaking
- Improved the matchmaker to make it less likely to "skip" very high-rated players
Gameplay Fixes
- 4v4: Fixed a bug where a lane would be considered as leaked if its partner lane leaked, even if the original lane was still fighting (This mainly affected no-build/cross strategies)
- 4v4: Match cancellation is now enabled (if a player doesn't do anything before wave 1 starts).
- Fixed a rare antistuck edge case
- Fixed a bug where Lightning Hammer would mistakenly continue where it left off on the previous wave (which could result in it casting on its first attack)
Client Fixes
- Fixed a bug where players would mistakenly receive a suspension notification instead of a warning notification, after leaving/afking a game
- Fixed a bug where Enable Global Chat wasn't being saved between sessions
- Fixed a player profile bug where new trophies weren't showing up
- Fixed missing card art for Chaos Hound, Cerberus, Imp, Undead Dragon
- Fixed a bug in post-game stats where W/L was incorrect
Quality of Life
- Waves & Attack Type guide windows are now reopened if you had them open last game. Also, they are now open by default to help newer players.
- You can now hold shift + left click + move mouse to deploy multiple fighters
- Selecting a Lost Chieftain tower now displays a green glow to indicate who he will buff when the wave starts
- Selecting a Dark Mage tower now displays a green glow to indicate who he will prefer to buff when the wave starts
- Ramping damage floating text now adds your base damage to the number (Berserker, Fatalizer, Four Eyes)
- Fixed a bug where sandbox mode would spawn wave 1 in 60 seconds instead of 600 seconds
- Fixed a bug where melee projectiles (Peewee, Veteran) weren't showing up properly

Game Balance
King
- Now takes into account Giant Slayer (20% current health damage) when prioritizing targets. This means he will correctly focus higher health units more often now, which also allows him to optimize his AOE better as well.
- Lightning Hammer: Projectile speed: 6000 -> 8000. Damage decreased by 3%
- Immolation: Damage increased 5%
- Chain Frost: Projectile speed: 4000 -> 6000
King Upgrades
- King upgrades are getting more expensive but now have better income efficiency. The goal of this change to make king upgrades more viable early game and when you're behind / know you can't break your opponent.
This is an experimental change, and if it doesn't turn out to be positive, we'll revert it.
Upgrade Attack
- Mythium cost: 15 -> 20
- Income: 4 -> 6
- Effect: Unchanged
Upgrade Regen
- Mythium cost: 15 -> 20
- Income: 4 -> 6
- Effect: 0.015% missing health regeneration -> 0.005% max health regeneration + 0.005% missing health regeneration
More viable when your king is >50% and less overpowered when your king is very low on health
Upgrade Spell
- Mythium cost: 15 -> 20
- Income: 4 -> 6
- Effect: Unchanged
Bounty
- Gold to opposing team decreased by 10% on average early game, increased by 5% on average late game (breakeven on wave 13)
The goal.of this change is to have fewer games decided with one mistake early game. As compensation, we’re slightly buffing early game low-income mercenaries so they remain competitive with high-income mercenaries and king upgrades

- Attack speed: 1.667 -> 1.724
Berserker
- Attack speed: 1.563 -> 1.49
Antler
- Attack speed: 0.8 -> 0.78
Iron Scales
- Health: 6850 -> 6800
- Damage: 205 -> 200

Great Boar
- Stampede: Now has a max targets of 20 units, which is consistent with other AOE in the game
Red Eyes
- Health: 8300 -> 8250
- Damage: 153 -> 150
- Thunderous Charge: Now has a max targets of 20 units, which is consistent with other AOE in the game
Mercenaries
We're buffing low-income mercenaries that are used early game to make sure they stay competitive with high-income mercenaries and king upgrades.
Brute
- Health: 750 -> 760
- Attack speed: 0.87 -> 0.88
Hermit
- Damage: 34 -> 35
Safety Mole
- Health: 1200 -> 1250
- Damage: 58 -> 60
- Safety Aura: Cannot no longer decrease damage dealt below 3
Pack Leader
- Health: 1740 -> 1770
- Damage: 88 -> 90

- Health: 2300 -> 2320
- Attack speed: 0.6 -> 0.606
Kraken
- Health: 6500 -> 6700
- Damage: 285 -> 295
- Ancient Power: Bonus damage and damage reduction per wave: 1% -> 0.8% (this nerfs Kraken's effective health and DPS by 2.5% on wave 11 and 5% on wave 21)
Waves
(5) Scorpions
- Health: 330 -> 340
- Scorpion King: 1320 -> 1360
(6) Rockos
- Damage: 39 -> 40
- Impale: Reworked: Each attack now has a 25% chance to deal 150% damage
The goal of this change is to make wave 6 less extreme and not hard countered by small units. We like that the wave has some extra variance, so we're keeping that flavor with critical strike. Keep in mind that it's not truly random; it's pseudo-RNG, which means that if a Rocko doesn't crit, it's more likely to crit on its next attack (and vice-versa). Ramping damage amplification likely had more RNG than this.
(8) Kobras
- Health: 580 -> 600
(18) Wale Chiefs
- Poison-tipped Pole: 100 Magic damage per hit -> 300 Magic damage every third hit
The goal is to make the magic damage more visible (most people don't even know it exists). This is probably a slight nerf.
(21) Legion Lords
- Attack speed: 1.02 -> 1.04
