Blinding Beetle – Now does 3 damage instead of 3 healing.

Chimchu Commander – Now does 2 damage (down from 3).
Chimchu Militant – Damage has been reduced to 4 (down from 5). Has been given a secondary effect:
“While this is on top of your discard pile and your target [Defends], deal 2 damage to them.”

Our biggest Lightseekers update EVER has arrived! The Shadow League have emerged from the darkness and have changed the foundations of Tantos forever,

In addition to 186 new cards, over 500 old cards have been rebalanced, we have new game mechanics, new ways to determine which cards you’re allowed to use in Ranked, and a lot more!

You can read the full list of changed cards ...

We’ve already talked about the new mechanics you’ll be seeing in Shadow League, so now we’d like to talk a bit about some of the new cards and how they’ve been integrated into the different Orders.

There are some things we always do when working on a new Wave of cards. We look at what current playstyles are out there for the different Orders, and see how new cards can spice that up a bit, or perhaps play against it. We also look at the Families within each Order and how we can give them new support and more options in regards to cards belonging to those Families. Finally, we also look at a few new deck ideas we can generate or perhaps flesh out the support for archetypes we want to see but haven’t quite made it through yet.

With Shadow League, we have amped up our focus on the last point: new ways for each Order to play. In a few cases, these are brand new archetypes brought to the Order, in other cases, it’s about bringing out something...

The release of Lightseekers’ new expansion, Shadow League, is almost here!  Before we get there, we’d like to show you some of the new things you will be seeing! Along with the 186 cards you haven’t yet seen (210 if we include the 24 Battle Pack cards), we have a total of three new mechanics to talk about. One is a brand new Family, and the other two are new ways to interact with one of the biggest features of Lightseekers: Buff corners.

This post shows numbers of sets in regards to the latest rotation news. We will be showing a full breakdown of cards soon. For an overview of Rotation click ...

Artifacts and Quests

As the story of Lightseekers has unveiled the Shadow League and their hunt for the long lost colossi, it felt natural to start poking our fingers into the past of Tantos. The new Family, Artifacts, is themed around lon...

Welcome to the third Dev Insight article where we take a deep dive into some of the upcoming card changes. This time, we are going to look at Family support.

When we released the game’s third wave, Kindred, we also introduced cards that interact with ‘Families’. The game currently contains ten Families:

-Beast
-Chimchu
-Elemental
-Insectoid
-Kreebal
-Location
-Machine
-Robot
-Umbron
-Undead

(An 11th Family may be coming soon…)

There are a few things we want to look at in regards to Families. First of all, since we didn’t introduce Family support until wave 3, we have two full waves (including the massive one that was Awakening) completely without this support. Second, we will be splitting Wa...

Welcome to the second Dev Insight article where we take a closer look on upcoming card changes. This time, we’ll talk about Hero cards.

One of the objectives along with the upcoming card changes is to encourage more variety of use in Heroes. This means improving some Heroes while nerfing others and completely redesigning some.

Heroes have typically slotted into two separate camps: general use Heroes and ‘build around’ Heroes. The former are Heroes that can fit into almost any deck, and don’t care too much about what kind of cards that deck plays. The latter are Heroes that require the deck to contain specific types of cards in order to fully benefit from their powers. When general use Heroes fit better into a deck that has been built around the powers of another Hero, we’ve obviously done something wrong.

The following post shows example adjustments for a number of cards, to see the original versions of...

Lightseekers,

Following on from the release of our latest wave Uprising, we have been busy working behind the scenes in order to make the improvements we want to make to Lightseekers. This has included new in-game features like weekly digital events, player inboxes and Battlepacks. All of these changes are making Lightseekers the game we know it can be, and a game that’s worthy of our growing fanbase.

To that end, we want to talk to you about changes that we are making to Lightseekers.

In Autumn, we are planning to release Wave 5 digitally. This release will mark a big change in Lightseekers, as not only will a new set be released, but we will also be implementing set rotation into Standard Play of Lightseekers. To accommodate this we are rebalancing some cards…well, a LOT of cards. Over 400 card changes, and counting! We have more details of these changes in a Developers Insight post which you can find ...

This Dev Insight is a bit different from the previous ones we’ve done. Instead of talking about things we have already released, we want to talk about a few big things to come, and the reasonings behind them. This primarily covers two subjects:

1. Card balancing changes.
2. Changes to our ‘Standard’ mode.

As can be expected for any competitive games with a lot of moving parts and customizability, there are always a lot of discussions going on about things players consider too weak, too strong, frustrating to play against, and, in our case, there have been a few discussions basically just asking the questions, “why aren’t we changing more of these things?” So let’s start there.

Balancing Physical Play vs Digital Play

One of the goals of Lightseekers has always been to try to keep its physical and digital counterparts as closely connected as possible; so that players of the physical game can replicate a majority of their physical experience in a digi...

It’s time for Mountain, Nature and Dread to get some Battlepack attention; the second of our exclusive Battlepacks have arrived, and are now live in-store!

In each Battlepack, you’ll find guaranteed and exclusive cards to boost each of your decks; read on to see what the latest cards can bring to your tactics!

The latest 3 Battlepacks include:

– 6 New Buff cards!
– 3 New Defend cards!

We have reduced the price of each of the Battlepacks from 500 gems to 250 gems, while removing the booster packs from each bundle. We’ve done this due to feedback that the packs were too expensive for all players, and that you all just wanted to get your hands on the new cards!

And here is what each Order can expect in the latest Battlepacks:
