TOURNAMENT MODE

Tournament Mode Testing

Tournament Mode testing continues
We are hopeful to have this out for everyone soon, but in the meantime, in order to play Tournament Mode, you must manually switch to the Public Test Realm branch on Steam
- You can do this by right-clicking on the Bazaar in your Steam Library, selecting Properties and finding Game Versions and Betas
- Enter the following Steam Access Code under Private Versions to unlock the Branch
- - 17IR8wb70MJOxCCh
- Once the version is unlocked, you can select in the list
- This will initiate a download
- Note that you will need to use this same menu to return back to the normal version of the game
After the game updates, you will need to create a new account
- This account will only be usable on this branch and does not interact with your normal Bazaar account
If the game doesn't load properly, try using Verify Game Files as switching branches like this can often cause issues
Tournament Mode can be freely shared by all streamers and content creators

GENERAL FIXES

8-4-2026

Patch 17.2: Hotfix August 13, 2026

This hotfix mostly addresses some observations and patterns showing up with the Dragons. They are performing quite well at all phases of the game and are clearly the best Hero in the game currently across nearly all metrics. Both our internal data and external 3rd party data confirms this.

That said, it is also a relatively balanced release as the gap is not very large.

In particular, the Slow lines are extremely consistent due to the strong payoffs available and the high redundancy and options within its support package, so it’s a primary focus of these changes.

There are some duds and underperformers too, and we have also adjusted several underperforming items. Other items that you might have expected to see like Drag Racer are in observation status as while they can perform well, their window of opportunity are more narrow and may also be affected indirectly by these changes.

There's more we could do for both nerfs and buffs but this is an initial pass to see how it affects the numbers. We have avoided adjusting other heroes for now as we would like to get a better baseline as a result of these changes.

We are currently implementing QOL improvements as it relates to Notes and Notes placement, but they are not part of this hotfix.

The Dragons have more items coming in future seasons as we prioritize increasing the item pool; this will both reduce consistency of finding specific items as well as fill holes in certain lines.

GENERAL FIXES

Increased audio volume of The Dragons' Merchant encounter
Improved response times for board interactables
The Undertunnels board should now properly display the selected stash's interior
The Undertunnels board SFX should now properly follow the SFX volume settings adjustments
Temporarily disabled Hero Upgrade VO lines while we investigate repetition avoidance
Updated the implementation some buff items across all heroes so they more consistently apply when used with items with the same CD

Tempo [4/6/8/10] (from [3/6/9/12])

Bubble Gum

Corrected an issue where this item would not trigger "on use" triggers

Dragon Lighter

Very strong early game item
Burn 2/4/6/8 (from [4/8/12/16]

Flame Skirt

This item is currently too easy to play with, and easily forced
- "Just buy every slow item"
- This redesign aims to introduce additional nuance in using this item while keeping it playable
CD 5 (from 3)
Haste adjacent items 1/2/3 second(s)
When an adjacent item Slows, Burn [5/10/15] (from When you Slow, Burn [2/4/6])

When you use an Instrument, your items gain [--/10/15/20] Shield

This has Crit Chance equal 5 times the Tempo you gained this fight (from [2/4/6/8])

Tempo trigger now triggers off Hastes

Wings

Mostly to make the upgrades on this more meaningful while curbing its un-upgraded power

Hotfix 15.2

GENERAL

Patch Cadence

In earlier Seasons, we had done a mid-season patch. In more recent Seasons, we tried an approach where we hotfixed things based on various factors. This has some advantages but one big disadvantage is that it is unpredictable, especially for our players. So we are going to try and go back to the more fixed cadence where we do a Mid-Season Patch instead so you always know there's something coming.

Tournament Mode (Coming Soon)

We have been working on a synchronous mode where players can play in a limited lobby
While this feature is close, we do not have a specific release date for you at this time
Join us later today at 12 PM Pacific (3 Eastern) today at twitch.tv/boosterstuff for a Live demonstration!

GENERAL CHANGES

Wording Changes

We are taking some steps to reduce the visual complexity of our items via wording changes
- This is a work in progress
- Specifically, we are doing the following:
- - Removing "for the fight" in favor of specifying permanent effects
  - Removing "Shield" from sentences like "Your Shield items gain +X Shield" which will now read "Your items gain [Shield Icon] X"
- This is not a change in functionality, and is only a change for readability

Item Spawning

Corrected an issue where sometimes Bronze items would spawn late in the run when they should not

Legendary Item Costs

Reduced the sell value of Legendary Small and Medium items to be more in line with normal item value scaling

Flying

Standardized the effect ordering of Flying effects on cooldown such that they fire before other types of outputs that are on also on cooldown
- For example, Clockwork Disc will now make itself Fly or stop Flying before dealing damage
- This only affects items that makes themselves Fly
When an item is destroyed, it stops Flying
- This previously did not trigger "stops Flying" effects and has been corrected to do so

Enchantments

Continued to make consistency pass and improvements to Enchantments across the board
Numerous enchantments have been adjusted and fixed as a result
Many items with missing enchantments gained them
Weights, Lifting Stones, and other similar "buff" items have had many of their enchants updated to also buff items

"is Slowed" effects

Most effects of this class have been consolidated to "When you Slow this" for consistency and interoperability with Radiant and other Slow prevention effects
Some items like Security Blanket and Moon Orb remain "is Slowed" as they are a different thematic concept
We have also updated "is Hasted" similarly for wording consistency, but this should have minimal gameplay ramifications

Level Up Changes

Made some changes to the gold-gain options
- Added secondary tags to many options
- Reduced the high end of the gold gain
- This normalizes the values you tend to get from the options
Added some additional options to several Heroes
