New 1v1 Duel Mode: Commanders, Decks & Tower Battles

Hello defenders! Florentum has a brand-new way to play: Duel, a 1v1 battle between two towers. Solo and co-op got a big strategy upgrade too.

New: 1v1 Duel mode

Two towers, one battlefield. Defend your tower, send your army at the other one, and be the first to knock it down twice.

• Pick a commander. Every match offers a fresh set of bosses as commanders, each with its own soldiers and cards. []Build your deck. Attack cards send soldiers at your rival, Defence cards protect your tower and Ability cards turn a fight around. Spend your gold every round and use one SHUFFLE when your hand is bad. []Plan, then fight. Each round starts with a planning phase: buy cards and upgrade your weapon, damage, tower, turret, magazine and army. Then the battle starts and both armies march. []Armies clash when they meet in the middle, so timing matters. []Every 3 rounds you pick a unit upgrade that makes one of your soldier types stronger for the rest of the match. []Different arenas with their own twists, like side gates where enemies come out closer.

How to play Duel

• Same computer: Player 2 joins with a controller. []Practice vs bot: Easy, Normal or Hard. Great for learning the cards. []Challenge a friend: invite a Steam friend to a duel. []Ranked: 1v1 online against other players. Win to climb the ranked leaderboard.

Solo and co-op: more strategy

• See the next wave. The upgrade screen now shows which enemies are coming, from which side, and what they are weak to, plus a bonus objective for extra TP. []Relics. Beat a boss and choose one of three relics, like Treasure Map, Hot Hand or Rations. Each run plays a bit differently. []Builds. Your upgrades now count towards a build (Fire, Poison, Pierce, Control, Fortress) with bonuses as it grows. []Save or spend. Keep TP in the bank to earn interest, or sell an upgrade if you change your mind. []Hit streaks. Keep hitting to deal bonus damage. []Harder, longer waves, and late-game lag fixed.

New menus

• A cleaner layout for the main menu, the mode choice, the upgrade screen, pause, settings and achievements. []Choose your mode from five cards: Solo, Co-op, Online, Duel and Ranked.

Fixes

• co-op sends smaller updates, so it runs smoother. []The pointer, the wave title and the speed button were fixed.
• Many smaller fixes.

Try a Duel against the bot, then challenge a friend. We'd love to hear which commander you like best!
