Patch Notes – January 6, 2026
PLEASE NOTE: If you haven’t updated your game yet, get the latest in the App Store!
GENERAL UPDATES
Deck Selection Carousel Update
- We have improved the process of selecting a deck to play with by revamping the Deck Selection Carousel on the Main screen. Before this update, players had to enter Deck Editing via Collection to get a reminder of the contents of their decks. Now players will be able to preview their deck contents from the Deck Selection Carousel without having to enter Collection. This should help make picking a deck easier and faster!
BALANCE UPDATES
CARD UPDATES
Iceman:
- Iceman now shows you the card he targets with his ability.
Sam Wilson
- [Old] 2/2 – Game Start: Add Cap’s Shield to a random location. Ongoing: You can move Cap’s Shield.
- [New] 2/3 – On Reveal: Add Cap’s Shield to another location. Ongoing: You can move Cap’s Shield.
Turns out a free Ongoing in play is pretty good! In many of our early playtests, players really enjoyed having the Shield always present in games to play around. However, it’s become clear that the guaranteed Shield represents more of the card’s strength than we’d like.
We wanted to preserve the fun of bouncing Cap’s Shield around the board, while avoiding the problems that come with having the shield in play for free. Thus, we’re having Sam create his Shield as an On Reveal in order to contain its impact to games in which you play Sam himself. As always, we’ll keep an eye on Sam’s performance after this adjustment and come back with some more tweaks if needed.
