Queen Mab, The Goddess

Hey folks,
Here are a few quick notes from us

  1. The only 2 nerfs under consideration for Mab at the moment are the removal of Arcane, OR a small nerf on the Gems required for an extra turn. We don’t have enough data yet to say whether these will happen though. At the moment I think it is unlikely.

  2. The only nerf under consideration for Maw is a reduction of his 3rd trait from 15% to 10%. Other than that, there is an indirect nerf coming which is actually a bug fix. His 3rd trait is supposed to be a flat 15% chance but it is stacking with multiple skull matches (not cumulatively, but 3 skull matches at once from say a bone dragon would give 3 independent 15% chances).

  3. In general we’d rather be giving you cool new toys to use against these things, rather than take away your existing toys… so think counters rather than nerfs. There will still be nerfs from time to time, obviously. But it’s kinda cool when Legendary troops feel Legendary!

  4. The meta up to Level 200-ish is far from stale on Mobile/PC - it’s actually great - lots of variety. That means we’re doing good for 95% or more of our active playerbase. You folks at the top end are equally as important to us obviously, but infinitely more challenging to balance for! HOWEVER you have the resources to instantly use and experiment with counters as we make them available, which means “less nerfs, more counterplay” is something I believe everybody benefits from.
