- Released on public test realm (PTR) with some known issues
- Expected release to live servers: 2/18

The main purpose of this patch is to release a new unit and game mode and fix a number of important bugs. Other gameplay changes and design improvements to king upgrades on the way in v3.12





Featured game modes are a new way to play the game with special rules and mechanics. They're just for fun and will occasionally be enabled on weekends.

The next featured game mode is 2x Chaos Mode 4v4, in which you get a random roll (6 new fighters) every wave, and waves have 2x the number of spawns in a 4v4 brawl. Fair warning: depending on your specs, things can get laggy late game with all the extra units, but it's still a lot of fun.

2x Chaos Mode 4v4 will be enabled from Friday 2/22 - Sunday 2/24.

- Fixed an issue that sometimes caused the aura tutorial to be impossible to beat

Not enough time has elapsed since v3.10c to make any major balance changes. Data suggests that all fighters are viable, and there aren't any significant outliers. You can expect more balance changes in v3.12

Dark Ritual
- Gold: +145 -> +140

• We've postponed the Unity Upgrade due to third-party issues (VFX solution caused crashes). This was a tough call because the upgrade has taken ~200 hours of dev time, but we cannot wait any longer for things out of our control. Once the third-party issues are resolved, we'll re-prioritize the Unity Upgrade and will let you know when this happens.
  
• We're currently doing some workflow improvements, which will automate the patch deploy process, reduce the chance of bugs, and reduce conflicts that arise when multiple engineers work on the codebase.
  
• ETA for v3.11 is 2/25, though we're hoping we can release the patch late next week. You can at least expect patch notes next week.

This is just a mini patch to address some emergent balance concerns. The goal is to make king upgrades feel better early game. We have other improvements planned in the future, as well as a content patch (v3.11) on the way.

The reason we couldn't do this earlier is technical limitations. Sorry we've dropped the ball here. We're learning from our mistakes and doing our best.
