The latest major patch of Skyweaver, “Saurian Surprise,” went live on Thursday, September 28th, at 6 pm EST. This major patch brings a wealth of new features to the Web3 card game, including two brand-new Hero abilities, 28 card modifications, bug fixes, and various minor improvements.
New Features of Skyweaver
Two New Hero Abilities: Horik — Vengeance and Banjo — Mercurial
The patch introduces two dynamic Hero abilities: Horik’s “Vengeance” and Banjo’s “Mercurial.” These abilities add depth and strategy to the game, catering to different playstyles.
Banjo’s “Mercurial” ability grants players access to an array of unpredictable abilities that change each turn, challenging players to strategize how to use Banjo’s whimsical powers effectively for victory.
Horik’s relentless pursuit to reclaim what death has taken from him fuels his Hero ability. Aligned with Strength’s objectives of unit buffing and removal, “Vengeance” empowers allies and vanquishes foes. This ability scales in power based on the number of allies defeated during the turn, providing players with versatile tactical options.
Card Modifications
In addition to the new Hero abilities, the patch brings changes to 28 cards. Developers aimed to bolster underperforming cards within the Strength category, fostering a more midrange, unit-focused metagame. This move also aims to address the overrepresentation of Guard units within the Prism while placing a greater emphasis on stats.
