Faeria Friday: It begins with a smile

Written by Gary Morris  |  05/12/2017

We have six special surprises coming for you next week, and we think they'll make you happy.

A new build-order strategy: The Forest Kick

Refreshing the meta

We've been getting some consistent, explicit lines of feedback about the current gameplay landscape in Faeria:

  • We need to introduce more new cards and mix things up a bit.
  • Krog, the Ogre King is too punishing for newer players in some matchups

We think these points have merit and are in line with our own observations. We're happy to announce that next week we'll be addressing both of these issues at the same time.

Beauty is power; a smile is its sword

With the Adventure Pouch on its way this summer and World Bosses coming even sooner, we know there are still a lot of you anxious for even more. When we know players want something, we do our best to deliver.

Therefore, we have prepared six brand new epic cards that are ready to be introduced to Faeria next week.

These epic additions will contain powerful new tools that should open up an even wider variety of deck building options and introduce some "out of the box" style designs we think you'll appreciate.

Let us begin with a teasing of what is to come:

Behold: Iona's Smile. Symphonies have been written about less.

Hmmm... something went wrong. The image went all blurry. What does it say?

Keep an eye on our social media channels throughout the weekend as we share even more. These six new cards will be considered part of the core collection and not part of the Oversky expansion.

Putting Krog in his place

As mentioned above, we've heard a lot of players having difficulties dealing with Krog. He can be especially frustrating to deal with after being hit by an early Ogre Dance, sending his massive form into a series of devastating undulations that can simply snowball out of control.

Without an early answer, many players are left with a sour feeling in their gut as they're forced to watch Krog devour their helpless forces, one by one.

We have no choice but to attempt to keep him under control with a strict nerf, which we've scheduled for next week. Hopefully this will help to curb his overwhelming presence in play, but further changes may be needed after more observation.

Mobile Early Access patch

Earlier today we pushed some fixes to our mobile version that many of you are currently testing.

We can't thank you enough for your valued feedback and bug reporting.
