Fun game.
I have this fear that Valve will abandon the game after its released or stop updating the game often, as the weekly balance patches is what keept the original Autochess and Underlords interesting, but post 2013 Valve is known for letting their projects to rot.
So far the people behind the game have been really active, and has been different to all other valve games where there is actual comunication between developers and the community, there are a lot of balance, optimization and content patches, keeping the meta shifting weekly so the game doesn't get stale, just hope they keep this attitude, and don't do what Valve is know to do with their games last couple of years

the balance so far ( july 2019) is kinda wonky, but is understandable as the game is still in early beta.
wish there was a bit less of RNG on the item system, so far is way better than the one in the original autochess, but still is luck heavy, like having 2 passives and 2 items each neutral round to choose, and 3 and 3 if you get the item to have extra options, that way there is way less luck involved on a game that is already hard on the RNG

you need at least 2 more friends to play this game in local multiplayer, if you can't, just don't buy it.
but if you do have friends to play this local, is one of the best games you can find
extra points if you played the original arcade games

this is just the the old DOS game ported, withc is the worst of the 3 big ones.
i recomend playing the genesis one, this one is kinda crapy unresponsive controls and no sound effects, maybe this was ok 20 years ago, but now is not good at all.
bad port of an awesome game
