Welcome to the new expansion: Lost Totems. A whopping nine basic cards have been changed, for more cohesive mechanics and improved gameplay.

0/13


The E6 slot in the old burn bucket has been replaced with E8, (and A6 with A5), and the A4 slot in the old healing bucket has been replaced with E4. Great Oak now summons A4 instead of E4.

Balance

E1 has been doing badly in the stats. As a compromise between the current version, and the previous 2/8 version, which was overperforming, it now has a +1 life adjustment.

A3 continues to overperform. It's life adjustment has been further nerfed from -1 to -2 while I try to think of a better solution.

The new card for this patch:

Natural Order (4)

@ Target ally. If it's earth, sacrifice it.

! If you did, summon (E12) in its lane.

Designer Note: The bots swear that Fury Totem is the best burn card, but in my opinion it is complete garbage. Someone help figure out this mystery for me.
