The gate opens a little kinder, and everything you earn lands where you can find it.
This one tightens the bolts. Your tournament winnings now always wait for you on the Claim page, your notifications finally speak the language you play in, and the activation gate keeps getting friendlier on the way in. We also gave the Defiance Protocol ruleset back its real Rebirth and smoothed out a replay hiccup in the wildest finishes.
Setting up your alpha account is clearer from the first step to the last. The recovery email step now guides you through sending and entering your code with simple Resend and Back controls, your PIN gets its own dedicated step so nothing is crammed together, and every action confirms itself with a quick toast so you always know what just happened.
Every tournament currency prize now lands on your Claim page and is credited the moment you claim it, exactly the way item and cosmetic prizes already work. No more small amounts dropping straight into your wallet while larger ones wait somewhere else, so every prize you win arrives the same consistent way.
Defiance Protocol does what its name promises again. The first time each Fighter falls under this ruleset, it revives once at 1 health, a genuinely different effect from Undying Protocol. The two rulesets no longer share the same description either, so you can tell them apart at a glance while you draft.
In a rapid finish or a sudden death overrun, a defeated Fighter now leaves the board and the lineup closes up right at its own final blow, instead of lingering dimmed until the last Fighter of the exchange falls. Replays of those chaotic endings now read the way they actually played out.
Commander cards now correctly read Commander in their detail footer instead of being labeled like an ordinary Fighter. Every other Fighter still reads exactly as it did.
Notifications now arrive in the language you play in, and their links keep you there. A German player no longer sees English notification text or gets sent to an English page partway through.
Connecting your recovery email during activation now saves on the first try, so you are no longer bounced back to the gate to enter it all over again.
If you already have a linked email and a confirmed Hive account, the Finalize Your Account prompt no longer follows you from page to page. Accounts that genuinely still need finishing stay gated as before.
Achievement unlock celebrations now hold until you are back in the game instead of popping up over the sign-up, activation, and welcome screens. Anything you unlock behind one of those gates still pops the next time you are on a normal page.
More onboarding and reward polish is on the way. Thanks for flying the alpha, and for the replays and reports that turn a rough edge into a fix.
