Ethgardians, after rolling out two smaller updates (2.0.1 & 2.0.2) following our V2 launch, we’re excited to share our next major update: 2.1.0.
This update brings 7 brand-new playable heroes while reworking the abilities of our 6 existing heroes. The roster is now more strategic and unique gameplay-wise than ever before!
| Meet the new Heroes: Aranthor, Valorian, Lyraeth, Mordren, Vexia, Seraphia, and Ryujin! |
Another huge improvement is the new Slot Buff system.
Instead of heroes buffing the entire team, each hero now offers specialized slot buffs. These buffs affect only the units placed in the corresponding slots, boosting attack, health, or even granting entirely new abilities based on their position.

Slot buffs also scale with shop level, typically increasing to +2 at Level 3 and +3 at Level 5. Freya, however, caps at +2 on Level 4 due to the extensive buffs she provides.
This update also introduces Hero Spells, with Woda, Aranthor, Vexia, and Ryujin each debuting unique attack spells. These spells target one or more units on the board, adding a whole new layer of strategy to your battles.
