Patch 0.40.7: Everything Lands True
Published on HivePostify by @stellarch · Tue Aug 25 2026
A cleanup patch: draft what you rolled, reorder your picks, read your stats, and follow the bracket.
This one is all cleanup. Ranked will never hand you a match you cannot draft, you can drag your picked cards around again, the tournament brackets connect cleanly, and your guild Brawls win rate finally reads right.
🐛 Fixed
Ranked never leaves you with nothing to draft
Sometimes a ranked match rolled a rule that, combined with the affinities you had banned, left you with no Fighters you could actually pick, so the draft screen came up empty. Now the game checks every rolled rule against your bans before the match starts and quietly drops any rule that would leave you with an unbuildable team. You will always have a real team to draft.
Drag your picked cards to reorder them again
In the draft, the hover preview on your picked cards was sitting on top of the dock and blocking you from click-dragging a card to a new slot. Now the preview steps out of the way the moment you start dragging, so you can reorder your team freely. Hovering to preview a card still works exactly as before when you are not dragging.
Cleaner double-elimination brackets
Fixed two connector-line bugs in double-elimination brackets. The line into the Grand Final only reached halfway across and never touched the Winners-final card, and some losers-bracket cards drew a second line pointing off into empty space. The lines now connect where they should, so the bracket is easy to follow.
Correct Brawls win rate on the guild Member tab
The Brawls win rate on your guild's Member tab was wrong: a player who won every fray could still show 50%. It was dividing wins by the number of individual games instead of the number of frays actually decided. Now it counts fray wins over frays played, so a perfect record reads 100%.
Small fixes like these come straight from your reports. Thanks for playing the alpha and telling us what breaks.
