October 2025 Update: Lucky Chests, Champion Cycle Rework and Two Evolutions
The October 2025 update replaced Lucky Drops with Lucky Chests, made Champions cycle like normal cards, and added Royal Ghost and Skeleton Army Evolutions.
A year after Lucky Drops took over the reward economy, the October 2025 update replaced them with Lucky Chests in three tiers — Common (3 spins), Magic (4 spins) and Seasonal (4 spins) — with Seasonal Lucky Chests guaranteeing rewards based on how many you open each season. Daily rewards were standardized around Magic Lucky Chests.
The bigger gameplay change was the Champion cycle rework: Champions stopped being one-per-arena specials and began cycling in your deck like regular cards. Only the most recently placed Champion keeps an active ability, and Mirror finally works on Champions.
Two evolutions headlined the content side: Royal Ghost Evolution (summoning Souldiers that damage on spawn, from October 17) and Skeleton Army Evolution, led by an invisible, indestructible General Gerry.
The same patch cemented Merge Tactics as a seasonal mode, with monthly resets of Starsteel and road progress plus new Rulers, modifiers and cosmetics each season.
