Gameplay Revisions
We have made some changes to matchmaking. The amount you raid now has a smaller influence on how often you are raided back. This should increase the number of players who receive raids overall. There have been a number of balance changes and bug fixes.
- Compressed Level progression to only 5 levels, requiring half as much experience earned as the 15 levels required previously
- Matchmaking now limits maximum weighting of raid credits to increase distribution and frequency of raids
- Matchmaking now uses a single rating rather than separate ratings for Offense and Defense to limit variance

New Starter Pack
Starter Pack DLC was added to the Steam store. It's meant to be a good deal for new players who would like to help support Labyrinth development. It might even make sense for existing players. The Starter Pack includes Sarkhet, Siegebreaker, and 15 Card Packs for $19.99. If you have Sarkhet or Siegebreaker already, you will get the Gold equivalent. There is a launch discount of 10% right now too.
