This week we wanted to talk about the Artifact Beta 2.0, what it will include, and when it will happen. Weve been focusing on gameplay changes first. The biggest change is zooming out to allow players access to all three lanes at once. The majority of effects still work on individual lanes so they still maintain their identity, but its less likely that a player will get shut out in the same way they used to. Weve also focused on making the game easier to pick up. We arent selling cards, so you wont face an opponent with a stacked deck. Weve also added a new draft mode, Hero Draft, that gives you a taste of constructing decks without all the pressure. The beta will exist as a new executable and access will be granted to individual accounts. When we are ready to send out invites we will let you know the process. Heres the current road-map: [olist]

Test boring stuff <- We are here

Trickle out invites, starting with players of the original release (ramping up similar to Dota 2)

Work on the Beta, eventually transitioning to an open beta

Leave Beta (hopefully quicker than Dota 2) [/olist] FAQ: Q. I didnt play the original. If I buy the original game now, will I be able to get in? A. No, we will prioritize people who purchased before todays date. Q. I played the original, will I have access to my stats, cards, decks, etc. from the original game? A. In the new version cards are unlocked through play. Individual cards are likely to have been changed, removed, or brand new; so old decks and stats wouldnt be valid. Q. Can I buy cards/packs in the Beta? A. We have some ideas about what wed like to sell, but none of them are cards/packs. Q. Im a member of the press, a celebrity, a streamer, an influencer, a pro gamer, etc. Can I get in? A. Selection will be mostly random. So maybe?

THE CARD GAME REIMAGINED
A collaboration between legendary card game designer Richard Garfield and Valve, Artifact is a digital card game that combines deeply-strategic, competitive gameplay with the rich setting of Dota 2. The result is an immersive and visually-stunning trading card game unlike any other.

STRATEGY UNBOUNDED
Wield your deck across three lanes of combat, answer every move of your opponent with one of your own. Unlimited hand size. Unlimited number of units you control. Unlimited mana you can employ.

It’s up to you to decide the best way to navigate the constantly shifting tide of battle.

FUN WITH FRIENDS
If you’ve played card games around a kitchen table, you know the enjoyment that can come with house rules. Artifact allows you and your friends complete control in creating a tournament. Simply select your elimination or non-elimination format and deck constraints; then, challenge your friends to a crucible of your own design.

COMPETE GLOBALLY
Want to test your skill against the world at large? Valve-sponsored gauntlets and tournaments will give players the opportunity to not just play Artifact for the joy of mastery, but to win prizes based upon their level of play.
