Hello everyone! There are going to be quite a few updates coming within the next couple of weeks. Here is a quick one to start them off: # **Legendary and Mythic Buffs** In preparation for many of our meta updates that will give players access to more cards in general, we are buffing **ALL** Legendary and Mythic cards. Legendary Power Cards will receive less of an increase in stats, but will also be included in the updates. Our goal is to make Legendary and Mythic cards feel more like their intended rarity and while analyzing the power spread between cards, the team has come to the conclusion that Legendary and Mythic cards are still underpowered. Additionally, we are looking at increasing the ways players can obtain Box and Event cards. With that in mind we want to maintain a clear power balance between Epic, Legendary, and Mythic cards. This update with happen within the next couple of weeks. *** We have lots of exciting updates coming soon! Keep checking back for more info! *** - ShinyMetalMod

sounds great, thanks Shiny!

What about challenge box u gonna change it plz reply

F2p folk are already getting bludgeoned to oblivion, I don't see how buffing cards they have limited access to is going to improve balance.

Yeah but think about if u paying a lot of money for a yellow card that only got around 10 extra health on max Steve smith

Glad to hear it. I only have 3 fused Legendary character cards but always felt they were pretty underpowered, even when playing a combo.

@TSM it absolutely helps ftp. It makes combos more relevant so you wont face entire decks of pre combos. They also mentioned their plans on alllowing more access to the cards you cant get. Try and be happy this sounds like the devs have in fact been listening to our pleas

No changes to this game will benefit f2p, it's not worth it to the devs. Wrong, don't forget that us, the free to play players are the one giving more incoming to them through adds, seeing at least 6 adds a day (i see more) it's already a big help for the incoming. The "whales" alone can't keep the game alive, think about that next time when talking about incoming.

Thank you Shiny! Really good news!

Try and be happy this sounds like the devs have in fact been listening to our pleas Yep, when i can make 2 combos they have already 4 legendary power cards on the table, talk about an advantage there for me ;) And don't forget f2p players barely have some legendary cards worth of having in ours decks.

"Additionally, we are looking at increasing the ways players can obtain Box and Event cards. " This benefits f2p players quite a bit actually.

Lol recon u easily take 200k a week from whales

Is this and the Adventure update happening at the same time?

They also mentioned their plans on alllowing more access to the cards you cant get. Try and be happy this sounds like the devs have in fact been listening to our pleas The problem is every time they announce changes that are supposed to benefit f2p players, it ends up making things worse. Challenge prizes are now a joke and rumble and brawl prizes were also nerfed, for instance. And many players are concerned about the devs taking away the possibility of farming for specific cards from adventure mode Also notice they say they are "looking into" it, which means nothing is to be expected in the near future. So you'll have to forgive my skepticism, because I think it's justified.

There is only one way to fix the game for all those complaining about f2p users and that is remove all precombo cards and that's never going to happen. Like me accept it or stop playing. I also think the Adventure update could be better for the game then most expect but no real details yet to verify either way until it happens. They said 3 weeks 2 weeks ago but I doubt it happens in the next week.

Instead of opening a new island where precombos (power cards) are not allowed, you decide to just make all Epic precombos useless. Now everyone who wants to be competitive will need a deck full of Legendary precombos only. Or players can just be average and use legendary combos. What a jerk move against all players who spent money buying epic precombos. I just regret not having become F2P earlier. Anyways, since I am not spending anymore on the game, I will not mind.

I wish I could say it was the cynic in me, but at this point here is my interpretation of this update. "In preparation for many of our meta updates..." *In pursuit of more money* ..."that will give players access to more cards in general" *you will get more cards, all of them will be useless though* "Our goal is to make Legendary and Mythic cards feel more like their intended rarity and while analyzing the power spread between cards, the team has come to the conclusion that Legendary and Mythic cards are still underpowered" *we realized some of those epic power cards you smaller spenders got while fishing for the good legendary ones were actually useful and had to put an end to that, spend big or GTFO* We complain about a lack of deck variety and we get BGEs that force everyone to conform to the same deck theme or be obsolete. We complain about the player gap and we get a buff to the top 1% (those that actually have decks made mainly of legendary and mythic cards) and nothing, in reality, for the everyday player and barely anything for the mid spenders. We complain, and the devs say "we hear you, how about we make it worse?" I get that the whales make up most the profit, the ad revenue probably is insignificant and that this whole game is basically an advertisement that people pay to participate in, I just always hate seeing something that was once fun turn into the school bully demanding your lunch money "Hand it over or you're going to get hurt" And I am not bemoaning those that spend, spend all you want, toss a billion dollars into your deck, I don't care. I do hate seeing game design turn into "how can we get them to pay more" as the core game mechanic, and we are beyond that here.

Good. Hopefully the buffing in Legendary and Mythic cards while also nerfing the PC cards, will force players to use combo on their deck.

Do you really think legendary power cards needed buff? I have to say legendary powerless cards needed buff but not the precombos . That brain in your skull isn't decorative , or is it?

Please in CHALLENGES rewards, come back the sure PRECOMBO cards, and the BOX of cards. Only Crate 2000 WW is shit. PS : good new updates. I will never see only one Mythic card since you do not increased the Mythic stones :D :D :D

Awesome! Hopefully they'll implement this before the rumble!

Many times we got excited for a update but in the end there's always a cash grab turn out so yeah having your hopes up its just naive and gullible, they wanna change the meta they say, but what's the meta, Paddling peggy and thinker apes? Or legendarie precombo on BGE? So buffing legendaries, and removing the option to farm what you want, is it really changing the real meta or its reinforcing it?

I have to say legendary powerless cards needed buff but not the precombos . That brain in your skull isn't decorative , or is it? Since legend power cards are combos made with legend cards and legend cards are getting buffed why would you not expect power cards to be buffed as well?

The "whales" alone can't keep the game alive, think about that next time when talking about incoming. There have been many articles written on ign about this and ads is an EXTREMELY small source of their income. In app purchases have and will always be the biggest revenue stream for these games.
