Join DblDubz, Filtrophobe, and Tuff on a two-hour-tour of what’s expected to arrive to the Hero Realms digital app in 2026! Starting with what we thought was EVERYONE’S favorite segment (spoilers, it’s not), the crew keeps the game-state analysis flowing with another entry in the Looking For Lethal series. 

From there the main segment hits and covers a wide range of topics – what balance changes may be coming down the pipeline, new ancestries for the beta, and new classes for the regular version of the game. There’s no shortage of talk on the impact and analysis these changes will have on the game. 

There’s a brief highlight on a class performance spreadsheet from StefP and Scorium plus Jseph’s article regarding Tavern Brawl match-making. More to come on discussing this and future Tavern Brawls in the New Year! All that’s left from here is to round up the Community Events and sign-off. Thanks for listening!
