**Featured**

- Introducing Pantheon Trials, which provide items for players to equip
- Added 9 new spells
- Redesigned Pick screens for Gods and Arenas

**Pantheon Trials**

- At the beginning of the game, 3 elements are randomly selected. On rounds 8, 16, and 24 a Pantheon Trial will occur. Every player will have a choice of 1 hero to send to the Pantheon where they will fight to the death. Players that have higher HP will spawn first. The elements will alter the game state in some way during these rounds, whether it be negative or positive effects for all units. If the round goes on too long, all units will take massive damage per second. Once the round ends, players will select an item that can be equipped to 1 hero. The order of selection is based on the results of the Pantheon round. The items available to pick are improved with each Trial. God abilities will NOT work during the Pantheon Trials. Gods will NOT take any damage from these trials.
