Hero Academy 2 updated!

Changes and improvements:

  • All Crystal Shards count towards your Duel Chests. No more lost leftovers!
  • Global Chat re-enabled for PC/Mac.
  • New FX when a hero gets executed.
  • More keyboard support.
  • Updated card filtering to show how many cards qualify for a filter before applying.
  • Bug Fixes.

Balance changes:

We wanted to build on the good things from the last balance update and continue bringing some of the underutilized cards into play more often. That has a nice side effect of adding more strategies for the various houses. We don't feel like there are enough animals in play, yet.
So, we've adjusted their stats along with a few other underused cards. Glade Sentinel and Royal Attendant were also need a bit of a boost. We have adjusted them to make them more viable for more Warden decks. We've reduced the cost on a few spells to also get them more play time and increase the opportunities for synergy.

Made animals better

  • Skall - 2/5 (was 1/5)
  • Bengalus - 2/4/1 (was 2/2/1)
  • Pounce - down to 1 cost (from 2)

Boost up some underused cards

  • Phantom Echo - down to 1 cost (from 2)
  • Inhellation - down to 1 cost (from 2)
  • Royal Attendant - down to 3 cost (from 4)
  • Get Hyped - down to 1 cost (from 2)
  • Glade Sentinel - 3/3, up to 4 mana cost (was 3/2 for 3)
  • Wickedpedia - 4/4 (was 3/3)
  • Skall - 2/5 (was 1/5)
  • Bengalus - 2/4/1 (was 2/2/1)
  • Alchemist Toxx - 1/4 (was 1/3)
