New User Interface: Part II - Play



Hello again guys,

Last time we started out by exploring the Home screen in Part 1 of this series of devblogs on upcoming UI changes. This time around we will dive into the new Main menu (left side buttons). First, let’s have a look at the PLAY button and the options thereunder.

[h3]1. PLAY options:[/h3]



When you press PLAY, you can select any of the different game modes available.

  • BATTLE (PVP)
    • Ranked or Casual
  • TRAINING (PVE)
  • DRAFT
  • CAMPAIGNS
    • Starter Campaigns
    • Theaters of War
  • SKIRMISH (when available)


As BATTLE is the main game mode and the other game modes are based on the same principles, we will just look at how the Battle flow works for now.

[h3]2. Decks (Select deck)[/h3]

Swipe or scroll up/down for your list of decks.



  • Press any deck to select it.
  • Decks will be ordered by usage (last played, last created etc) so no more having to scroll to the last page every time to select the deck you are playing or most likely to play. Furthermore, you can override any other ordering by marking decks as favorites. Note that with these easier ways to keep your decks in logical order, we might even allow for players to have more decks ;).


[h3]3. Selected deck[/h3]

The last played deck is selected by default - so if you just want to keep on playing the same deck, just press the PLAY button in the right bottom corner.



  • Buttons to edit selected deck.
    1. Edit deck
    2. Customize
      • Swap card-back
      • Swap HQ (Battlefield)
      • Swap board items
      • Customize emotes
    3. Favorite toggle (Favorite deck will be at the top)


[h3]4. Ranked/Casual[/h3]

Toggle between ranked and casual mode.



[h3]5. PLAY button[/h3]

Let the battle begin!
