GENERAL

• Fixed longstanding issue where passive abilities (excepting Dragon special abilities and Sand King's Caustic Finale) used stats from one rank higher, e.g. Crystal Maiden 2-star using Crystal Maiden 3-star's values. Some units got a buff to compensate (see below), and we'll be monitoring the others.
• A few Bots had their electronic brains unscrewed, tweaked, and reattached.
• Added some new animations for benched units when under unit cap.
• Fixed an issue where tiny quantities of damage could generate either too little or too much Mana. Warlock casting Shadow Word would cause this.
• Fixed a visual-only issue where Lina and Crystal Maiden would return from the dead at the end of combat.
• With most summons removed (see below), removed the Summoning Stone item.
• Units killing themselves no longer get those kills scored. Sorry Barricades!
