We have 5 kingdoms (of 34) missing their Faction currently: Blackhawk, Broken Spire, Pridelands, Dragon’s Claw and Ghulvania.
If the pattern change is correct, the intent may be to have those Factions released by the time those kingdoms come up for their week.
We are currently in the week for Dragon’s Claw and next week is Ghulvania. Pridelands’ week started on May 3rd, Blackhawk’s on March 8 and Broken Spire on February 8.
(Also, that was all super annoying to find because this forum can’t sort by thread creation date?)
34 kingdoms = about 8.5 months (4 week/month on average), and they release a new faction every month. They have more than enough time to avoid the scenario you propose, even if they have to push back a Faction release for a patch again. It would mean to expect Broken Spire’s Faction sooner rather than later, and Dragon’s Claw will probably be last.
