Legends:Patch/1.65

Released on June 26, 2017.

Heroes of Skyrim

Welcome, travelers, to the Throat of the World.

As civil war wages and a newly resurfaced threat descends from the skies, we are pleased to introduce our first expansion set, Heroes of Skyrim, featuring 154 new cards. Whether you choose to rebel alongside the Stormcloaks, unleash your Beast Form with the Companions, disappear into the libraries of the College of Winterhold, traverse the land learning powerful Shouts, or take advantage of the mayhem to find yourself some easy marks, we hope you will enjoy your time here being bathed in Dragon flames when the Heroes of Skyrim expansion set launches on June 29.

New Main Landing Screen

Your portal into The Elder Scrolls: Legends has been updated. The Store button is replaced with a large easy-to-find tile and Practice games are now accessed through the Play tile along with Versus Battle games.

Heroes of Skyrim Packs

Skyrim is our first expansion set with cards in their own packs. All the bundles you're familiar with from the Core set are also available for Skyrim. The Pack Purchase Screen has added a pull-down menu at the top so you can select the set you want.

Multi-Set Bundles

The Pack Purchase Screen also offers Multi-Set Bundles, which feature a combination of both Core set packs and Heroes of Skyrim set packs.

• 15 Core + Heroes of Skyrim Combo Bundle = 10 Heroes of Skyrim Packs + 5 Core Packs + 1 Bonus Legendary
• 60 Core + Heroes of Skyrim Combo Bundle = 40 Heroes of Skyrim Packs + 20 Core Packs + 1 Bonus Legendary + 2 Bonus Premium Legendaries

Starter Skyrim Pack

You'll find a great deal in this one-time Special Offer that includes 10 Heroes of Skyrim Packs, an exclusive "The Dovahkiin" title, and a Bonus Legendary Card.

Arena Updates

Heroes of Skyrim cards have been added to the draft picks in Arena modes and they will appear at an increased frequency for a limited time.

Arena rewards are now a mix of Core and Heroes of Skyrim packs (at least one Heroes of Skyrim pack guaranteed). Once you reach level 50, your three-win rewards in Versus games (Casual and Ranked) will be from Heroes of Skyrim packs.

Arena ranks are being reset with the introduction of the Heroes of Skyrim set, applicable to all three modes of Solo Arena, Versus Arena, and Chaos Arena.

• Rank 1: Lowered by 3 ranks.
• Ranks 2-4: Lowered by 2 ranks.
• Ranks 5-6: Lowered by 1 rank.

Quests

Over a dozen new Daily Quests have been added for the Skyrim release, including goals for the Companions and the College of Winterhold. Some of these quests provide a pack of Heroes of Skyrim cards as rewards, the first time that our Daily Quest rewards have included packs.

Titles

Over a dozen new titles have been added to The Elder Scrolls: Legends with the release of Heroes of Skyrim. Here are some fun facts about these new delights for all you title chasers out there.

• You may already have some of these! We've added a few new titles that are based on previous Titles you might have previously earned.
• "The Centurion" counts your victories with all-neutral decks but not previous wins. Your tally starts now. Rev up those Dwemer!
• "The Dragonborn" includes one component you may already have earned: "The Dragonslayer". If not, there are lots more dragons in Skyrim!
• "The Master of Dragons" won't be earned if you have previously summoned 20 Dragons in one game (which would be an amazing feat). It starts counting now.

Card Changes

Several cards have had their targeting requirements changed from "an enemy creature" to "a creature". These naturally flow from our recent change to make more abilities cancelable.

We took the opportunity to reduce unnecessary words and offer players a little extra gameplay flexibility and creative opportunity.

Note that these abilities are cancelable if desired, a change in how these cards play.

• Belligerent Giant ("an enemy support" does not change)
• Ash Servant
• Shocking Wamasu
• Spiteful Dremora
• Murkwater Witch
• Leaflurker
