HEX Update – Future Art

Hey all. HEX campaign continues to do great, and we here in the office are continuing to build on that. We’re making progress on the next patch that we mentioned in last Friday’s update. This includes latency, encounter difficulty, card bugs, and more.

Our other team members are working on the next PVP set and the next zone launch in campaign. We’re not ready to launch PVP card previews, but we can share some art from Lius Lasahido. Our Art Director Tyler James was kind enough to let me pilfer some of the gems he’s been polishing in lieu of the upcoming release!

Art From the Future

Ardor Day Ends Monday

Remember, Ardor Day ends soon. So, log-in this weekend to get your sleeves and gather all your holiday rewards before Pucid (thankfully) buzzes off for the year.

New Deckbuilding Column

With over 20 years experience playing TCGs competitive, Adrian Sullivan joins our writing team to take a look at HEX with a new eye. He’s taking the fundamentals of card games and seeing how those can apply while at the same time bringing his renown rogue deckbuilding approach to all the new space that a digital-only TCG provides the curious mind. Take a look at his first article posted today!

Remember, we’re broadcasting the $100,000 HEX Invitational live from the ESports Arena on March 5th and 6th! You can catch it on Twitch.TV/HEXTCG, or you can visit the ESports Arena live and join the event. We have plenty of exclusive gear for sale, including these shirts that I’m sporting here!

Five Shards Weekly Tournament Series, Saturday and Sunday

For the first three weeks of February, FiveShards will run two weekly constructed tournament series. The open tournaments will be in-client, standard constructed, swiss with a cut to the top 8, require no entry fee, and offer 10,000 platinum for first place in addition to boosters and qualifying points for the top 16 players. Players may enter either or both tournaments (though the points are tied to a specific finale), and the final tournament will happen at the end of the month which features 20,000 in platinum prizes for the top 4 of each series! One series occurs on Saturday, at 4pm PST while the other will take place on Sundays, at 8am PST. A similar schedule will happen in March as well.
