A new patch has hit Mythgard this afternoon and brings plenty of changes including new card balance. Here's a quick overview of the card changes.
- Coliseum of Strife - Pursuit +2(e) is now +1(e)
- Journey of Souls - Now has 6 starting life (Up from 3)
- Vampire Historian - Now costs 4[R]R (Up from 3[R]R)
We've also got two new important keywords that clean up card text!
- Sunrise - At the beginning of your turn
- Sundown - At the end of your turn
Read on for all the details in today's patch.

Cards/Tuning
Copies of Weapons Check crafted between 9/15 and 9/27 can be unmade at full value. Copies of Vampire Historian crafted between 9/15 and 10/5 will likewise be unmade at full value.
Coliseum of Strife
Pursuit +2(e) → +1(e)
Coliseum of Strife was generating quite a bit of early advantage with the early stat buff and needing just one successful combat for the first draw. This change should slow that a bit while still providing some early tempo while on the draw.
Journey of Souls
+3 starting life → +6 starting life
Journey of Souls has been a bit on the weaker side and this extra life should give players a little more time to get value from their returning minions.
Vampire Historian
3[R]R → 4[R]R
Vampire Historian has been very difficult to contest and meaningfully answer when backed by Amnesia. Pulling back a bit on its mana cost should allow for the defending player to be able to block either with minions that can withstand the Amnesia hit or to play a second minion to contest Historian with.
Additional Clarification on Type->Class
Quote From Rhinoah On some aspect ratios, the filters in the deck builder/collection are collapsed and labeled "Type" "Gems" etc. The "Type" class (which is like minions, spells, artifacts, enchantments) was simply renamed to "Class"
