Infinity Wars - Animated Trading Card Game News

To celebrate the Steam Deck Builders Festival going on we're going to have a stream hosted by one of our Designers, Prism!

Prism will be showing off the game and better help explain it to newer players, all while challenging some of our best within the community and anyone who wishes to go against him, that can include you! If you aren't able to make it to the stream, there's still other ways we're celebrating the festival within Infinity Wars! If you sign in while the Steam Deck Builders Festival is live, you'll be granted five free God Packs!

In addition to this, later during this weekend we will have another one of our weekly Sanctuary Social events, and this one will be hosted by ProfWisteria! So be sure to log on and try the unique mutator, and claim extra free packs for yourself too!

There's a lot of cool things happening in Infinity Wars Classic! Let's do a quick rundown of all the neat stuff happening!



Our talented team has been hard at work and we have a more fresh take on our interface! It's live on our newest patch now! So be sure to update, check it out, and let us know what you think!





Steam is doing a cool event called the Steam Deckbuilders Fest! To also join in on the celebrating, we'll be giving away 5 free God Packs if you sign in during the event (which starts on March 25th and goes on through April 1st!).

[h2]Balance Changes[/h2]
- Tempus’s buffs are no longer permanent, meaning that if she leaves play, stat growth she has accumulated will be lost.
- Vasir, the Chained Prince must be killed or removed from play to trigger its unchain effect. You can no longer Bury or Overcharge it.
- Xi, Martyr of Peace now only transforms deployed enemies, sparing the command zone.
- Filing Cabinet now requires two cards in hand to activate instead of one. This should not affect much of its usefulness, unless you specifically really wanted to have one card in hand, draw a card, then immediately put both of them on the bottom of your deck.
- Defiant Herald can no longer target itself.
- Nimble Trickery gains Exile 1 and now works on any number of abilities this turn. Also fixed Nimble Trickery redirecting to things it should not.
- X/X tokens will keep their stats permanently on the following cards:

• Ethereal Fusion
  
• Orion, Master Architect
  
• Ancient Egg
  

(Note: Compiled Corpses and Summoning Stone were already doing this.)
- Adjusted the Lay Siege modifier for future Mutator Events.

[h2]General Fixes:[/h2]
- Fixed some issues with Rift Run where you are sometimes unable to play or abandon a deck.
- Fixed some issues with multi-queuing where you can end up in a match of an unintended game mode, or bypass deck legality checks.
- Fixed ability to delete your deck while queuing.

[h2]Card Fixes:[/h2]
- Zuza, Angelic Siren no longer returns the stolen character if it is no longer alive under your control when she dies or steals a new enemy. (However, if it left and then came back for whatever reason, it will still be returned.) Also, her text now clarifies that she can only target enemies.
- Fixed Writ of Resurgence activation not being Preemptive.
- Fixed Jackal Snow’s attack-boost aura affecting all allies when it should just affect Factionless ones.
- Corrupting Magics no longer triggers if the affected card is out of play. Wording changed to “Target Character gains "At the end of each turn, if this Character is in play, it deals 1 damage to your Fortress and gains +1/+1."” Note that the card text previously said that it triggered at Start of turn, but this was not accurate.
- Fix Tusked Behemoth, Exhumed not being able to put Ability cards into the Graveyard, and also targeting the bottom 3 cards of the Deck instead of the top 3.
- Fix Kael’s Restoration only putting Character cards into the Graveyard.
- Ghost Knight triggers can no longer stack in the same turn, causing it to be removed indefinitely.
- Fix issue with Lucca, Ascended where she wouldn’t buff herself if there’s no one else to buff. Additionally fixed her not affecting characters which entered play while her trigger was already on the stack.
- Agent Cheryl’s ascension is no longer a transformation, meaning she can now be Humbled like all the other Ascend cards.
- Fixed Vasir’s Strategem not working on an empty hand (hopefully for good this time). Also ensured it updates if things happen between trigger and resolution for whatever reason.
- Descension can now properly target commanders.
- Slime tokens are no longer named “Demon”
- Believer of Paragons has an animation for her activation now.
- Shortened Resolute Initiative animation.
- Burning Prejudice has been renamed Burning Sigil.
- Fix Nysrugh the Ravenous missing Consume 2 and not eating when exhausted. There are more issues to address in the future, however.
- Fixed many cards with missing or incorrect internal faction tagging.
