“With the Transformers trading card game, we can be nimble,” he says.
The game hasn’t been formally announced yet, but C o c k s says it’s a title aimed both at young teens and the collector and toy audience. It will come out in September or October. “We think Transformers are cool and the game has interesting, unique mechanics,” he says. “All cards are two-sided, over-sized and feel bigger, weightier in your hand.” C o c k s says the game has a relatively light learning curve, but a lot of depth. “It should take one or two times to understand how to play,” he says.
The game, which has a unique rule set, is built around two decks. One of the decks is a hero deck and the other is a powers and abilities deck used to “amp up heroes.” The strategy around play, he says, is to choose the right hero with the right abilities and powers. They’re also considering making a digital version of the game, once it launches, depending on how it is received. “Transformers will be brand new to Wizards.”

Under Investigation
Here are some of the issues reported that we've been investigating:
- Troops not following Inspiring Charge in certain scenarios: There are rare occasions when bots will not follow Optimus Primes/Megatron's Inspiring Charge.
This is currently under investigation.
- Medics continuously healing each other: After deploying two healers, it is possible for them to start healing each other and not target other bots.
This will be fixed in this week's content release.
Issues related to the Shock Tower:
In certain scenarios, bots outside the buildings range can be damaged by its attack.
When hacked by a bot on offense, the Shock Tower will not always deal damage to all the surrounding buildings in its range.
- Both of these issues will be fixed in the next client release.
These are just a few examples of the reports that we've received from you, and we continue to work hard to improve your experience with the game every day.
