Little QoL: Tile highlight for bordering and surrounding effects

I think it would be nice if your last unit dies, your lane of placement goes back to start. Then it could be a tactic to sacrefice some points from base to gain better advantage after?

I also wish they would add more cards in the near future but aside from that, the game is pretty much PAY 2 WIN plus prices for the microtransactions are quite expensive for just a few rubies or cards and stuff.

Id love if there was a weekend event that based on the number of battles you won before monday you will recive cards

Wonderful feedback and suggestions, everyone. It is truly appreciated as we work to improve and grow the game. I've updated some items and will continue to post each time I update the original post.

Some element that speeds up the end game... maybe bases starting taking a damage a turn after x turns or something that makes it so that games don't last 30-45 minutes. I feel like 5-15 is a perfect length for a game like this.

I wonder if one thing that would help playing against higher level players is if health for BOTH players was equal to the highest level player. It's already tough to beat someone who's playing a deck that simply has better versions of cards you play, but it's an extra kick in the jewels THEY ALSO HAVE MORE HEALTH. even give the lower level player the health boost/ greater reward and lower penalty for losing.

the bases could change according to the faction of the deck, they could also add effect cards on the board or skills that can only be used every x turns, for example: cold ground, makes a square of the board a snowy zone that makes difficult the movement of the troops , so to perform a normal action like forward, it takes 2 turns.

@eggtat I agree that in a lot of cases getting matched with a higher level player is an unfair matchup simply because they're likely to run some of the same cards as you... only better. My point is that if they already have that advantage, why give them a health boost on top of it?? They already have the advantage, and I would HOPE the devs want to mitigate that advantage... rather than make the gap wider. I'm still super low level (3), mostly because I won't spend money on this game til more bugs are fixed/balancing has been done... and I'm currently hovering around the bottom of rank 24. Most decks I face are at least lvl 4 and up and after 1 or two battles at 24 I play someone who's got 12 hp vs my 10... which is a 20% difference. I've gotten within 2 hp of killing them as well. Which should be worth a hell of a lot more since I'm clearly outplaying ten without the use of legendaries or high level cards... but such is not the case. At least let me keep my rank for losing to someone who's level is that much higher than mine. At that point it's kinda an auto lose even if they're bad with their deck.
