Fight guys – 0.2.1 Patch notes
Hello everyone,
Thank you so much for this amazing launch week! It was a blast talking to you, seeing dominant strategies emerge, and watching you all enjoy the game.
Patch overview
In this small patch, we’re addressing the main balance issues, with a focus on endgame strategies. While some of you pulled off some wild tactics, the dominant Sniper guy + Lightning rod combo needed some attention. We’ve also added a few quality-of-life improvements, fixed some bugs, and started planning future content.
Launch Week Recap
Over 2000 games were played this week! Retaz stayed undefeated in round 26, while Liah_K had the playtime record with over 13 hours!
The two had a solid back-and-forth for championship all week, but in the end, Retaz came out on top.
The top 5 teams all ran a similar strategy: one super-buffed sniper with Lightning rod, which shut down bigger teams easily.
Four players played over 100 games: Fighting Guy, Stephanie, Liah_K, and Padder.
As for popularity, the Bow guy emerged as the undisputed fan favorite. Among modifiers, Lightning rod dominated, while Swift was the most popular potion.
