SolForge Fusion News

Have a fun way to express yourself during a match! In game press the speech bubble next your name or press "e" to bring up your emote wheel and select the perfect emote. You can also disable emotes in the settings under game settings. This can be done during the game or from the title screen.

Bug Fixes:

• Fixed issue where Solbinds were getting stuck on top of your hand after playing.
  
• Quest screen will no longer duplicate after fusing a deck.
  
• Fixed an issue with upgrading if you have both betrayer and normal version of a card in a deck. Note
• Solbind Betrayers are still bugged but hopefully normal betrayer cards will now be their proper faction.
  
• Blight Witch Blighted encounter no longer has the player play two Sepulchral Magiliths at the beginning of the game.
  
• Fixed Rex Heart, where your dinosaur now gain armor even when there are no enemy creatures in play.
  

Today marks the beta launch of a brand-new type of online event using Phantom Decks in our SolForge Fusion app, available on Steam.

Here's how it works:

Free Entry: Pick up two free event tickets in our in-game shop. Each ticket allows you to join the event queue for up to three games.

Win Rewards: Earn Gold to use in the shop for every win along the way. Achieve three consecutive wins and you’ll earn the ability to Solbind phantom decks, making each deck a permanent part of your collection!

The event will run all weekend long, so feel free to jump in, explore, and give it a real stress test! Since this is a new format, expect some quirks or bugs, and please let us know your thoughts to help shape this feature's future.

Don't forget to pick up your 4 free phantom decks this month in the shop as well.

Random Decks Available
Players are now able to play a random combination of faction decks in a solo game, multilayer queue or against your friends. When you are selecting your deck you can find the Random Deck option as the first fused deck option. After playing a game, in the end screen menu you can save the deck and it will create a fused deck in your collection of those random decks. We are also giving 25% bonus XP when players play with random decks!

Bug Fix
In the shop, when you buy a potion it should now immediately show-up in your account. You will no longer have to log out and back in.
Redeeming potions from the mastery track should also be fixed.

Solbind Potions
We have added a new potion to the shop! You can now purchase Solbind potions to convert your phantom decks into digital decks! In your collection view a phantom deck and select the potion icon to use your Soldbind potion.

Medals & Steam Achievements
We have added steam achievements to the game! Along with these achievements you will be rewarded with medals when you complete these achievements. In the cosmetics menu you can now add medals to your banner on the matchmaking screen as well as these medals will now show up during online matches. Medals will also be given out as exclusive rewards not just for achievements. We will be rewarding Kickstarter backers their exclusive medals soon.

Unlockable Campaign Encounters Updates
All unlockable encounters have been updated to have changed decks and will no longer have different boss powers each time you fight them. We have made these changes as having new powers for each encounter made it hard to be able to strategize how to face them.

Bug Fixes

• Fraud’s Experiments should now be loading properly.
  
• Elementalist Knight is now being granted slay abilities from other cards and being able to be targeted by other effects.
