Welcome to the the twenty-first edition of the Gods Unchained Weekly Recap! The news this brings us the...

First Champion Reveal

In this week's official Twitch stream, Petrify and Derek (Producer) revealed several new cards, including the Champion of Light, Lysander!

Along with the actual card, there was also a new story released which contains the creation Lore for Lysander.

The GU team has made quite a big deal out of these Champions, so I am guessing that there is more to it than just a few cool cards. Perhaps the Favor system will work with Champions somehow.

Official Stream

In addition to Lysander, there were several other cards revealed and a few hints as to what else is coming in Season One. There are a few summary articles (with card images) about the stream. You can read them at the links below.

Balance Changes

No balance changes this week. I expect we won't see much until Season One balancing starts.

Scam Alert

Reports are out that there is a phishing scam circulating on Facebook. ALWAYS remember, if you aren't sure about a link in an an email or a social media feed, go directly to the website yourself by typing the URL in your browser (or using your previously saved link). In this particular case, the link in the post is very fishy. It doesn't go to the official website, and ends in .cf extension, which is not normal.

You can read the official GU post here -https://www.reddit.com/r/GodsUnchained/comments/evv0g2/scam_warning_fraudulent_facebook_page/ and I have also included an image of the scam post.

Marketplace

Not much in Marketplace news this week. An increase in the value of Olympian cards was expected after the reveals earlier this week. And while there has been a slight uptick in a few cards such as the Black Argo and the Phalanx Champion, overall the market is a bit over-saturated for much in the way of big moves.

Dev Update

The fourth dev update was posted. One of the best parts is a general timeline at the bottom of the post. The upcoming changes closest to reaching the players are more Lore and card reveals for Season 1, Official Marketplace improvements, and Flux and Fusing!

Meta

No balance patch means little to no Meta change. Control is still dominating, it just varies slightly from week to week as to which Control decks are currently in vogue. This past week Light Control and Magic Control were large and in charge. Will Death or Deception re-emerge? Or perhaps Slayer can regain some of its lost ground? Will someone find a new meta that can shake things up? I sure hope so!

Gods Unchained is an online, collectible card game with true ownership of your cards. The card information is stored on the Ethereum blockchain, so the cards can be traded, bought and sold in any NFT market, while the game itself runs off-chain, so there are no transaction fees involved when playing. The game is free to play, and you can get started now.
