Mastermind & Reroll Rework

- Initial roll is now the same as in Season 3
-- You get 2 rerolls on wave 1
-- You start with +3 income. The first reroll costs 1 income. The second costs 2.

Reroll
- Number of rerolls: 5 -> 1
- Reroll design: Get 6 random units -> Get your current 6 units + 4 random units, then pick any 6
This places more emphasis on your starting roll, while still keeping the benefits of rerolling (clutch reroll, comeback potential, bailing you out of a bad/unfamiliar initial roll).
Game Fixes & Improvements
FairPlay- Fixed a bug where if you were disconnected/afk for 4+ waves, but return and play the rest of the game and win, and it would count as a loss (now counts as a win)
New Emojis
:calculated:

:mild_panic:

Unit Models & Lifebar Size
- Scaled down models by about 20% (this does not affect pathing/targeting at all)
- Fixed selection circle scales for many units
- Lifebars/manabars are smaller (so they overlap less)
These changes should make it easier to follow what's happening in the battle, without affecting any gameplay.
Smarter Bots
- Now use Nekomata's Spirit Offering
- Now use Adapt (Devilfish/Seraphin) depending on the wave
- Now use Boost, Stimpack, Harden, Arm With Shuriken, and Shuriken Cyclone
- Now a bit smarter about opening builds
- Classic Queue Only: Fill bots now get +100 gold and +30 income after wave 10 to help them stay on value and not negatively warp the game
HUD
- Fixed a bug where saved HUD positions weren't loading after restarting the game (they should load now)
Minor Gameplay
- Mastermind Autopicker: Added a few more fighter combos that it will prefer to take
- Mastermind Rolls: Improved algorithm to prevent a rare case of getting a roll with no T1-T5 fort/natural fighters
- Lost Chieftain: Now more likely to cast Gaia Shield on Doppelganger
Post-game Stats
- Builds tab: Now shows your final rolls next to your build
- Builds tab: Now shows king upgrades
Codex
- Now shows "per gold" values next to hp and dps
Game Balance
Legion Spells

- Fixed a bug where Embargo couldn't be used if you had upgraded King at any point in the game (instead of just on Wave 11 build phase)
