Hello and happy Thursday Wednesday!
Skill Updates
After reviewing the design and community feedback of skills, the team has decided to make the following updates. More updates may come, but we feel that these updates will go a long way in helping reduce the confusion some skills were causing new and veteran players.
- The Bomb animation will now occur at the same time as the attack of the card with the skill, instead of waiting for the attack animation to complete. (This is already out)
- The Trait/Show asterisk icon will be further defined to help distinguish the difference between affects applying for traits or for shows.
- The following skills will receive a description update: Cheer, Cheer All, Heal, Heal All, Hijack, Bodyguard, Leech, Payback, and Gas.
Those description updates are as follows:
| Skill | Description | |
|---|---|---|
 |
Cheer | Increases attack of another random friendly {y} card by {x} for a turn. Only targets cards that have not attacked this turn. |
 |
Cheer All | Increases attack of all other friendly {y} cards by {x} for a turn. Only targets cards that have not attacked this turn. |
 |
Heal | Restore {x} health to another damaged {y} card. |
 |
Heal All | Restore {x} health to all other friendly damaged {y} cards. |
 |
Hijack | Steals up to {x} attack from each attack increase on the opposing enemy until next turn. |
 |
Bodyguard | Prevent {x} damage from each skill that targets this card and adjacent allies. Uses the highest Bodyguard available. |
 |
Leech | Heals self for {x} after dealing attack damage to a card. |
 |
Payback | Deals {x} damage to any card that attacks this, if this card survives. |
 |
Gas | Attacked enemy card takes {x} additional damage after each of their turns. |
Delayed Ticket Queue
You may see additional ticket delays over the next couple weeks. We are seeing higher than normal ticket volume and the team is working through the queue as fast as possible. We thank you for your patience.
Additionally I am out until next Tuesday - if you have any urgent matters or concerns, please send them along to Modchi @ http://www.kongregate.com/accounts/modchikopi.
