The Hellhound will be a great addition to the game, even though it is not for Lost Souls LoL

HAHA, thanks for that hint - indeed missed that one.
I really love what you guys are doing to this game! After some games the last month, I just wanted to let you know huch much of an enhancement the color change for the affinities is. So much easier to chose which one to use. In the past I had to read every affinity multiple times, as some texts are only different in details. This makes it SO much better!

While most understood Skylords ReBOOM was an April Fool's joke, most of you seem to have missed the scratch code you can find by pressing the pre-order button 🙂 

If you check the last 3 posts, you will notice, that it is not capable of exporting the models fully with everything...
So knowing the exact structure of the models would be enough to add new, but the emphasis is on exact for a reason, because a single bit incorrect might mean it will not work.

Just updated the post 🙂
First of all -> i will have a Veteran PvP as a Co host.
Second: MORE PRIZES !!!
Check the main Post for details

hello...   🙂
 
is it possible to update the pvp-guide and the free pvp-decks?
 
there have been so many chardchanges. is there nothing diffrent for tips and tricks? tierlists? etc.
 
how do you play your pvp deck? especially i am interested in pure shadow. i have a hard time at the moment.   -.-
i am  bad player and i think i have not the best deck in many games. perhaps the wrong cards...?

Right after this Community Update went live, we had an onboarding call, and I have edited the CU. 
We’re excited to announce a new addition to our art team—Elkondo has joined us as a 2D artist! We hope you'll get to see some of his card artwork in the near future. Welcome, Elkondo!

I can't wait to finally see Hellhound come to live ingame! I've been waiting for so long now 🙂
 
In case you are interested in my initial thoughts when coming up with the card idea, here is the original text I wrote with the submission to the contest:

well thats the problem with a point based system i guess.
You could create some crazy math to combine Points and Playtime, but that would need extended testing to be fair.

The map is supposed to be played on advanced as stated in the main post. 

Great card and an amazing artwork and process. Can't wait to try it out!

Greetings Skylords!
A new month; a new Community Update! It's time to bring you up to speed with everything going on in Skylords Reborn!

• Skylords ReBOOM

Today, we have a very exciting announcement to share! After introducing new cards, campaign maps, features, and even new game modes, we feel it's time to branch out even further. Please check out the trailer below.
That’s right—Skylords Reborn is entering the first-person shooter genre! Join Bandit Sniper Guy on his adventure as he faces familiar foes from the world of Nyn. While we will continue releasing new content for Skylords Reborn, the majority of our development focus will shift to Skylords ReBOOM. We hope you'll join us on the battlefield!
Pre-orders are up now, so get your copy!  

 
• New Card Reveal - Hellhound

Back in 2023 we held a card-creation contest, inviting the community to share their ideas for potential new cards, which were then judged anonymously by our designers. While many great designs were submitted—some of which have already made their way into the game, like Energy Core and Gate of Akylos—we might have saved the best for last. The highest-rated entry was Hellhound, an upcoming L-sized unit for Pure Fire. Let’s break down the card!

 
Magma Armor
Takes 25% less damage from ranged and magical attacks. After 5 seconds in combat, damage reduction increases to 40% less damage, and after 10 seconds in combat, the damage reduction increases to 60% less damage from ranged and magical attacks. Resets after 10 seconds out of combat.
 
Pyroclastic Flow
Cause Magma Armor to explode, dealing 660 damage to enemies in a 15m radius, up to 1980 damage in total. Magma Armor is reset to 25%. Requires Magma Armor to be fully charged. Reusable every 20 seconds.

Design notes:
Hellhound was the overall winner of our first ever Card Creation Contest, where we asked members of the community to submit ideas for new cards. The original design has seen little change since then. Hellhound is an L-sized T3 Pure Fire unit. Similar to Moloch, it has resistance to ranged and magical damage, though in Hellhound's case this resistance begins at 25% and scales up to 60% the longer the unit remains in combat. Once the armor fully scales, Hellhound can activate Pyroclastic Flow, exploding its Magma Armor to deal up to 1980 damage to nearby enemies.
The general concept behind Hellhound is to have a Fire unit that slowly scales in durability as it fights, but which can then transform that durability into damage. This will allow Hellhound to quickly clean up camp remnants, including flying units, using Pyroclastic Flow when Magma Armor is no longer needed.
Hellhound will be released in a future content patch—details to be announced!
 
• Art Spotlight - Hellhound

Hellhound started out as a trial task for Psyagita, who was interested in joining our art team. Unfortunately, they ended up being too busy to continue, but were kind enough to let us move forward with the work. We dove into our archives and found some early sketches from the art process!     Psyagita first provided us with these three sketches. Our lead artist at the time, Tweeto, had this to say about the initial batch: "I think I prefer the 3/4 view of the face over the profile version and am interested in seeing a more dramatic and imposing angle of the creature itself. Could you try sketching it from a lower perspective to highlight its intimidating presence?"    Psyagita came back with two new attempts. We preferred the second one, as it had more of an action pose—which tends to look better in a card frame. Work then began on finalizing the pose and adding color.
     At this point, Psyagita unfortunately became too busy, so our artist SpiritAlpha took over the task. Since we were working on the model simultaneously, we made a few adjustments that were reflected in the updated artwork—most notably, a new color for the flames and fur.     The piece was coming along nicely, but we felt it stood out a bit from other Fire cards, particularly due to the grey background. We also wanted to make sure the card felt cohesive in the deck bar alongside other Fire cards, so we looked to other units in the faction for inspiration.     By adding purple elements to the cave background, the artwork popped more and felt more in line with the rest of the Fire faction. After several rounds of feedback with our art group, we finalized the artwork for Hellhound.     We’re very happy with the result and hope you’re excited to play the card yourself in the future! A big thank you to Psyagita for laying the groundwork for this unique piece, and to SpiritAlpha for bringing it across the finish line!   • Team Changes
We’re excited to announce a new addition to our art team—Elkondo has joined us as a 2D artist! We hope you'll get to see some of his card artwork in the near future. Welcome, Elkondo!
We’re also happy to introduce Sabri as our new audio designer. Sabri has joined the team to support various audio-related tasks, including creating the sound effects for the recently released card Spirit Gate. We really appreciate the help!
Meanwhile, Prof_Emezy has stepped down from the team. He contributed as a Discord Moderator, Proofreader, and supported some exploratory work in marketing. We'd like to thank him for his efforts and dedication during his time with the team.
