There is already a similar feature in the game. When you go to any map, there is a "suggested decks" button, which shows the last few decks you have beaten that map with. Maybe one could use that as a starting point to expans on it.

Maybe I can finally combo SoW and Plague together again 😍

I like the idea with the charges. Implementing that change should be easy, but we do not have Brannoc voicelines to explain that mechanic, which would be a bit of a downside. But in the end, it is mostly a design decision, that the map team and game designers have to consider.

There are actually not that many translators working on the project and there is already lots of stuff to translate (e.g. every single card chage, new card, outcries and storybook entries for the new maps, new menu options etc. Trying to translate every single proposed change that may or may not make it into the game together with the reasoning behind it into all of these languages and updating it whenever that proposal changes is just not feasible.

Thanks for sharing! For me it works with wine as well, but maybe using Proton can make the setup easier and less of a hastle.

Literally the first thing you see when going to the forums is a bih banner pointing you towards Discord. There are also official posts on the forum, which list all official SR Discord servers, including the balancing Discord. Also, all balance changes, from big changes like Amii Monument to minor things like "Increase Lyrish Knight HP by 20", were posted there first with the possibility to talk about them in length and this has been the practice for years now. So I don't think the team is at fault for not making it even more obvious where to find balancinh discussions.

We could also add Teststrike (The test server-only card, that oneshots everything at T1 without groundpresence) to the main game. It would allow for everyone to cheese every map and skip T1-T4. But people could just not use it and the group leader could say "No teststrike please" and check everyones deck and we could say at each event "Teststrike is banned". It would even allow for much faster speedrun strats on almost all maps. But would that be a good idea? I highly doubt it. But if we then would remove it again, that woyld kill all the new strats and decks with Teststrike in them. Would you then protest against Teststrike being removed? With Amii Monument it is similar but less drastic. It doesn't remove T1-T4, but it can be used to effectively remove T3 mostly from the game. While its presence may enable some (by the map makers unintended) strategies, it removes a lot of theorycrafting and potentially much more colourful startegies and options from the game. And regarding the "just don't use it" argument; that completely negclegts the impact of human psyche, that SunWu mentioned. By that logic you also say "What's the problem with gambling or drugs? Just don't do it lol"

What if she couldn't attack air, so Skyfire could counter her?

There is already a warning in the game, when you try to sell the last copy of a card, which is used in a deck iirc.

What about Stone Tempest?

Try to think about the Amii Monument changes from the perspective of a game designer or a map maker. You put endless hours into designing and balancing a new map with a very cool T3 section or you design a T3 concept of a faction with lots of cool possible interactions, just to see people skip it entirely with a single card. That probably feels like the gamedesign equivalent of making a fancy 3 star dinner and buying some expensive wine just to see your guests drown the Food in tons of Ketchup and chugging the wine down with coke. You can see a decent number of community maps and many past events, which ban Amii Monument for that reason. The most extreme example of this in my oppinion though is Soultree, where you skip the only real enemy base with buildings on that map by cheesing it. I really hope this will be fixed with this update as well.

Hey all, I have a quick announcement to make: We will extend the deadline of the event! Instead of ending this month, you will still have time until the end of the year to finish your bot! The new preliminary deadline will be the 5th of January 2025, so you have a bit of breathing room after New Year's day to hand in your bots. This also means, that you still have lot of time to get started, even if you didn't have any time to start yet! Happy coding!

Thanks for clarifying! Is the time for the score measured in seconds btw?

There is one 🙂 check out stats.skylords.eu

Maybe we have to find some cool decks, where solo Umbabwe with spell support will take out camps, like a mighty warlock.
