Wave 2 of the Timeless Beginnings expansion unfortunately still has a few kinks, but until then, we have a few changes in this patch that we hope you’ll enjoy! Patch 0.2.23 will be live March 2nd at around 10pm ET/3AM UTC.
New Features
- The maximum deck size for Ranked matches has been reduced to 40 cards.
- In friendly matches, players can now set a maximum deck size between 40 – 100.
- In friendly matches, players can now select cards that should be excluded from decks.

- Battle Ribbons can now be marked as visible/hidden on the Profile screen. Hidden ribbons won’t appear when a match starts.

New Game Mode
The Frostfire Festival is over, but a new unranked game mode will replace it with this patch! The Amazyng Race game mode is inspired from a fan mode from the community where Generals are immune to attacks and the main win condition is to touch all four corners of the map. We have implemented the rules outlined in the original Reddit post in-game and can’t wait to see the interesting decks and strategies players come up with for this new challenge! Winning a match in this mode will also grant an exclusive “Amazyng Race” title!

Bug Fixes
- There were some scenarios were Echo Mage was not properly copying spells. Echo Mage should now properly copy the first spell cast while it is Zealed.
- Sojourner was only returning minions due to a bug in the code that filtered out Generals from the set of cards it could return. It should now properly be able to generate any non-token, non-General card.
