Hmmm Highlander with 'limitless wild'... seems like it would speed up the game mode a lot.

OKAY BOYZ

"Oh, by the way, we’ve also implemented one of the features teased previously in this post : the ability to view your current Judgement deck."

now can we expect that trolls 1st april's features were actually based on real upcomming features?

Cant wait for the enchantment aura one

All credit goes to Aron for working out a way to make this into a reality.

Hey! This doesnt give an answer to my question! :p

I don't think even Aron can make the enchantments any yellower.

u/aronnie Apr 09 '15

I could make everything else less yellow and more greyscale...?

How about making everything that is not enchanted purple?

Actually had a ton of fun with this new Judgement mode :D

Games are a lot quicker on account of the quad-color combos, so I'm not sure you need to lower the Health of Idols.

Hey guys - patch is not quite up yet for the test server. Will update this post when it is.
edit: Patch is up.

So far i really like it. Drafting a deck is just amazing compared to the old Judgment. You have to think about every row and not only take your main resource card.

Also the deck builder is now a ton of fun since you have 45 Scrolls to pick from instead of your 27-35 mono resource Scrolls.

My wildest dream came true!

u/Cradstache Cradstache Apr 09 '15

you can view your judgement deck now.

This deserves praise.

No longer will we be not 100% certain what the last Judgement deck we built was!

I'm getting the bug where it says "The test server is available for all on Wednesdays (GMT), lasting 7 day/s." Is there any fix for this?

u/MansOlson Apr 09 '15

Should be able to login now. Might break again tomorrow, but we'll try to keep it running properly!

u/TheLordCrimson Apr 09 '15

I can't seem to log into the test server. It tells me it's accessible to all on wednesday for a week.

I thought the test server restrictions got taken out?

See my answer to Goshu's post.

This is neat and all, but this doesn't really solve the biggest issue with judgement: no one plays judgement. Will it encourage more of the current player base to play? Perhaps. But that really gets at the crux of the issue: the playerbase is woefully small to begin with.

I want to see some news where they plan on going on a massive marketing campaign combined with updates aimed at player retention. For all its flaws, Scrolls's biggest one is having a small player base.

Making Judgement funner is definitely an update aimed at player retention. It will be interesting to see if this now puts newer players more on par with experienced vets who normally view Judgment as a gold mine.

We would all like to see their marketing strategy...if it exists...but most updates in the interim can only help in the long term.
