Tomes
The duration of rented tomes has been doubled. It will now last for four weeks instead of only two.
Every player who unlocked the full game client will receive one tome for free every two weeks. These special tomes last two weeks. This way you will always have a tome available for competing with other players in the unique Tome PvP mode.
Play4Free
Some cards in the Play4Free-Starterdecks have been swapped. Due to card changes some cards could not be played properly. The following changes have been made:
Fire Bomb is replaced by Morklay Trap
Mutating Frenzy is replaced by Silverwind Lancers
Stone of Torment is replaced by Cannon Tower
Match Timer
A match timer has been added to the game. It is located left of the minimap. With this new timer you can always see how much time you have already spent in a match.
Map Editor
Added a button to the Height Tool to recalculate the Aviatic Height Field. This will set flying units to the correct height above ground level and will fix them flying too high or low not following the ground silhouette. Use this button every time you change ground levels, and don't forget to save the map afterwards!

There will be no lag or notification sound when receiving an ingame mail while being in a match anymore.
Shipped User Generated Maps
All User Generated maps shipped with the game (e.g. the winner maps of the last PvP map contest) got their Aviatic Height Maps fixed.
PvP map "Tairayver" made by community member Kaldra got a little more polishing done by him.
