TL;DR — What changes for players?
A tournament playtest build adjusts sixteen cards and repairs ranked results and shared-machine sign-in. Check the balance table; generated-card artwork is still a known issue.
Origins Tavern’s recap and explanations, based on Koin Games’ announcement.

Fixes and improvements
- Grandmaster match results show the actual division, total Victory Points and VP change instead of placeholder values.
- The +10/−10 VP display no longer overlaps the total. Losing-match avatars are no longer upside-down.
- End-of-match outcomes, Victory Points and ranks should appear reliably.
- A new Steam user can sign in on a previously linked shared machine without restarting; the earlier account remains available to switch back to.
- Mission and boss opponents receive upgraded bot decision-making.
Known issues at publication
- Generated, summoned or transformed cards may lack artwork. A fix was announced for the next update.
- The announcement identifies this as build 125 and the build used for that Friday’s playtest tournament.
