| Ver 1.0.8 Patch | 2024-10-16 | Ver 1.0.7 Patch Highlights Roxxor Upgrade Cards Balancing Bug fixes and Performance Improvements Character Balancing Roxxor the Giant Roxxor falls behind other champions in his diversity of playstyles with a narrow range of playable upgraded cards. As one of the earlier characters which we designed upgraded cards for, we admittedly started off rather conservatively with the power levels of his cards that can change up the pacing of his strategies. Spine Pull X This grapple was designed as the fastest but weakest one out of Roxxor’s kit. But as an upgraded card with a high rate of failure, it doesn’t make the cut unless it has more of a set up |
| Ver 1.0.6 Patch | 2024-10-09 | Version 1.0.6 Patch Highlights Redeye and Ardelean balancing Lifesteal and Fortune Reversal Clarification and Mechanic Updates Various Bug Fixes and changes Character Balancing Redeye the Werewolf Redeye has been at the top end of the meta for a long time now and the proprietor of the aggressive pacing that the meta needs to answer in order to stay competitive. Redeye by design is a boom or bust character where he either wins quickly or struggles to recover from bad turns. We’re toning down Howl to limit the amount of damage that can be dished out in a turn and making it easier for the opponent to regain control through reactions to stop the |

| Version 1.0.4 Patch Update | 2024-10-03 | Version 1.0.4 Patch Highlights • Character balancing • Bug fixes and gameplay optimisation Character Balancing Ardelean the Vampire The launch of the dark lord has been an amazing one. Learning from our previous mistakes, we’ve carefully designed the interactions of Blood Feast and Blood Rush to create a new Monster experience. Due to the mechanic, Ardelean is atypical in his playstyle where he has to first collect blood then choose what abilities to upgrade with strategic card ordering. With a high ceiling and potential, we felt we had made certain elements of his set up a bit too easy. The following changes will lower the floor of Ardelean |

Ardelean, the Vampire will be entering the ring at launch, and he will be bringing a new form of terror to the arena!

| EA 0.2.27 Character Balancing and Performance Update | 2024-08-08 | EA 0.2.28 Patch Highlights - Performance update improving multiplayer experience and Bug Report Feature - Character Balancing Performance Update In this patch we have restructured the way multiplayer saves and syncs between one player and another. This should be a positive improvement to the stability of the overall game as we have discovered the previous savings methods was putting a lot of stress on the networking performance. We are still on the lookout for corner bugs such as desync issues, double text and window freezing which we expect to gradually improve as latest updates are live where we have been retooling many parts of the game to |
| EA 0.2.26 Mechanic Updates | 2024-07-24 | Patch Highlights Stealth and Lock-On changes Mechanic Balancing Stealth Stealth has been a complicated mechanic for a while. On one hand if it fails too often, it does not provide the cost benefit for the caster, whilst on the other hand, the opponent is forced into a roulette where they roll a dice to see if their attacks succeed. We feel further nerfing/changing the percentages will not bring any aid to the problems nor is the mechanic inherently a failed design. We have decided to tackle stealth on two main aspects, its continuation throughout the game, and the methods in which the opponent can interact. The first change will be a continua |
| EA 0.2.23 Character Balacing Update | 2024-07-18 | Patch Highlights • Character Balancing • Stealth Mechanic changes • Start and End turn Pass desync bugs resolved Character Balancing Sora the Elemental Sorcerer Over the past few weeks, we have been continuously making changes to the mage of the stars to better her chances at making her shine through her different elements. To differentiate her deck archetype from Crystal, we have avoided giving her similar levels of controlling keywords so she can be safe whilst setting up. We want Sora to have the ability to go towards the opposite and have a new fun way of playing the spellslinger class in an aggressive manner with quick and rapid attacks. |
| EA 0.2.19 Character Balacing Update | 2024-07-08 | EA 0.2.20 Patch Highlights • Character Balancing : Redeye defences get dampened and Sora buffs to Ignite and Barrier playstyles Character Balancing Sora the Elemental Sorcerer This patch mainly focuses on a large revamp to Sora’s overall strength in both setup speed and survivability. Up against aggressive decks, early game Sora barely stands a chance with thin barriers and mana heavy spells that can be easily destroyed by other classes. We are increasing her overall barrier gains and survivability options by giving her access to Double Heal and the capabilities of increasing her Maximum Barrier. We have also decreased the activation cost of |
| EA 0.2.19 Character Balacing Update | 2024-07-04 | EA 0.2.19 Patch Highlights • Sora and Taj improvements towards the competitive meta • Character and ability balancing • Bug Fixes and Performance updates Sora the Elemental Sorcerer Sora is the latest champion introduced to Death or Glory. As the fire mage and most offensive spellcaster in the game, she acts as a countermeasure towards defensive heavy and control decks as spells cant be destroyed unless your opponent attacks. However, Sora currently struggles with turn 1 and turn 2 of the game with mediocre but mana heavy blocks, it is often very easy to deny Sora from her set up by just not playing cards. We made adjustments to her early gam |
| Control the Elements! | 2024-06-25 | EA 0.2.16 Patch Highlights • New Champion : Sora the Elemental Sorcerer • Double EXP Week! • Card Balancing • Build Up behaviour changes • Bug and stability fixes New Champion - Sora the Elemental Sorcerer For most practitioners of the arcane art, gaining high proficiency within a magical domain, requires years of dedication. It is therefore unusual for a sorcerer to master a range of elemental skills. Sora has pushed herself harder than most because she is haunted by the last words of her late father. Constantly feeling inadequate and needing to prove herself, she believes her achievements can speak for themselves, not knowing even the most |

| EA 0.2.11 Roxxor enhancements and Upgraded Cards Balancing | 2024-05-20 | EA 0.2.11 Patch Highlights Character Balancing - Roxxor playstyle enrichment and problematic upgraded cards balancing Character Balancing Roxxor the Giant Designed to be straightforward and simple to pilot, the idea behind Roxxor is to become the stat powerhouse of the game. With many cards in his deck having premium base stats, a simplistic resource system and an overwhelming punch, Roxxor is meant to be opposite of complex deck building like the A.T.A.C.R where a lot of cards are powerful but only when used inconjunction one with one another to create a synergy that makes 1 + 1 become larger than 2. We want Roxxor to be the counter for the |
| EA 0.2.5 Character Balancing and Bug Fixes | 2024-04-29 | EA 0.2.5 Patch Highlights • Character Balancing, Roxxor and various upgraded cards balancing • Deck save, Card unlock bug fixes Character Balancing Roxxor the Giant Roxxor has been struggling to compete with his fellow champions that have more flexibility and response opportunities. Roxxor is designed to be strong and sturdy but he is currently easily shut down by smaller attacks that bring control or prevent him from playing the two big cards he wants to every turn. We have decided to add Persistence to Roxxor’s kit as a staple to establish a clear identity for the big giant as an unmovable tank. Home Defend and Home Defend X Added New Card |

We aim to create a game where all characters are relevant and maintain competitiveness throughout version updates where new characters will be released. This round of balance changes aims to tweak the power level of certain characters to avoid them becoming overly dominant or overly weak.

When the arena started to fall out of favour, the kingpin that owned the business cross-bred enhanced native Tyrannosauruses into an unstoppable titan.

The genes of different tyrannosaurs was merged with dark magic and science by the kingpin of the arena to create the ultimate threat and the disaster that will befall the champions of Corrum.

| Early Access Ver 0.1.8 Patch Notes | 2023-12-28 | Patch Highlights Card balancing Text and keyword changes UI improvements and bug fixes Card Balancing Class Cards - Techie Upon the release of our latest character, Susan the Sniper, we revisited the Techie playstyle and made changes to several cards in two regards. The first aspect was to power up and give a stronger playable identity to System Overdrive and Sentry Canon whilst the second aspect was simplifying a basic techie card, Fusion Pistol. System Overdrive We decreased the heat requirement for System Overdrive to make it more playable due to the enormous drawback of not being able to reload at the end of turn due to exhaustion.
