Summoners War: Sky Arena, the beloved turn-based RPG by Com2US has just been given a new breath of life with a balance update. This balance update is a special one and was much awaited by the player base due to the SWC World Cup 2022 finally being over. For those who are unaware, the Summoners War World Cup is a large-scale tournament event that houses huge prize pools for the winners and participants both. Com2US avoids making any balance adjustments during this period to make sure all players have an equal chance and footing while the tournament is being pursued. Balance patches are extremely important to keep the power levels of all monsters in the game checked, especially when you have a huge roster of monsters such as Summoners War: Sky Arena.

This is a pre-patch notice and will likely be implemented in the game with the next official update. Let’s see the monsters who are getting nerfed, buffed, or bug fixed.
