Weekly Challenge Report #2 – Who’s Afraid of the Big Bad Bleed?

[h3]Welcome back to our Weekly Challenge Report, adventurers![/h3]

Today, we're lovingly throwing you into the jaws of the week’s wildest modifiers and hope you survive to read next week’s. This time? The wolves are out—and they brought backup.

This week' s challenge is: Threatening Howls

It’s full of bleed, rich in gold, and dangerously slow. A fairytale gone horribly wrong.


[h3]🩸 What You’re Dealing With:[/h3]

🩸 Hemorrhage: Enemies apply 2 Bleed charges that hit at the end of the turn, bypassing Buffer and Bleed Immunity. It hurts more than it should.

⚡ Energized Heroes: Every hero starts with +1 energy each turn, guess you got your dose of caffeine in!

🐢 Slow Heroes : Unfortunately, you're not winning any race today, -1 speed to your whole party. I don't make the rules.

🌪️ Elemental Monsters: All monsters gain +10% Fire, Cold, and Lightning resistance. Hope you weren’t counting on consistent damage output.

💰 Wealthy Heroes : You begin with +300 gold and shards. Great! Use it fast, before the wolves get you.

💉 Double Injuries: When you take an injury, you get an extra copy. Because clearly open wound wasn’t enough.

This is a challenge where you’ll want your healing sharp, your positioning smarter, and your defensive layers thicker than the straw house Ottis used to live in.




[h3] ⚔️ Party Report – Field Notes, Day 1:[/h3]

🐷 Ottis – Vital. Keeps the bleeding from turning fatal. Must protect him at all costs.
⚡ Wilbur – Sparks flying, brain humming. Slower than usual. Still irreplaceable.
🏹 Sylvie – Sharp. Focused, and everything she hits bleeds.
🦌 Bree – Unmoving, unshaken. If something’s coming for us, it’ll have to go through her first.

The woods are quiet. Too quiet. We’re 70% bleed stacks, 40% regret, and somehow still at -10% initiative.




[h3]🃏 Rewards Worth the Risk:[/h3]

Reach the third act to unlock two wildwood-themed card backs and prove that you didn’t become the Big Bad Wolf’s chew toy this week.
