My work this week mainly revolved around the creation of a new class, the Arch Magician, known colloquially as the magizard. https://trello.com/b/ZedLQc9H/arch-magician
The Arch Magician operates on a system that has actions costing certain stat requirements to perform. This mechanic is balanced out by Magic Bond, which means that it is harder to unequip certain items that strongly boost stats.
After spending Monday and Tuesday fleshing out a complete deck and system, I spent the remainder of Tuesday printing the first low fidelity iterations, only one deck's worth, so that I could test the deck against other classes including our other newest class, the Necromancer.
The tests on Wednesday provided valuable qualitative data, from which I was able to make rapid revisions to the design including changing Magic Bond and buffing and nerfing certain cards.
