Realm of the Gods is also being adjusted in Patch 17.3.
Some parts of Space Gods feel like certain mechanics often close off opportunities rather than open them up. These range traits like Psionic and Arbiter to bigger mechanics like Encounters and the Realm of the Gods.
We've seen players feel frustrated that items often dictate their God Offering, and that the Pengu blessing is often an afterthought. We're tackling both of these by moving the item component choice to the Pengu blessing. This hopefully opens up the God Offering to really match what your team desires (or your favorite God Boon) without feeling like you have to sacrifice your intended items. This should also add a bit of extra thought into that 2nd choice when the offered Pengu champions just aren't what you need.
As always, thanks for playing and helping us make Space Gods the best set it can be!
The team's preparing a B-patch targeted for live tonight with bug fixes and a few tweaks to our 17.2 balance changes. We will follow up with a full change list with our official notes closer to when the patch goes live!
Patch 17.2 day! A lot of things to explore and initially some things landed well (4/5 costs opening up) and some others that still need work.
For now, the team is currently aware of a few bugs that we're looking to address when possible.
- Win/Loss Streaks are visually covered on Mobile
- Master Yi is slower than intended when dashing
Other things that stand out right now to the team
- Timebreaker early economy
- New/Adjusted Augment Balancing
- Some outlier God Blessings
Patch 17.2 Notes should be up soon, but here are the changes that didn't make the Patch Rundown.
Kindred/Yi is a rising comp, but even with these buffs + Brawler/Fiora buffs, probably is closer to what a 4/5 cost board should look like in the current meta.
The team's working on a B-patch focused on nerfs to the dominant carries and a few econ Augment removals that have been enabling three-star 4-costs too frequently. Full details to come when the patch goes live this afternoon.
Good morning everyone! Over the next 24 hours, Space Gods will start to go to live servers across the globe! Thank you everyone who participated in PBE, as your involvement helps make our launch even better!
Here are the changes you can expect from the current PBE build that will go out with the live build. Not too much, but some adjustments that should make even more lines viable. And of course, more bug fixes!
The full 17.1 patch notes will be out later today as well, and then here comes the set! Good luck with your climb, thanks for playing PBE, and as always, take it easy :)

@OfficialKortt Don't get hung up on greeding for "perfect" items you see in a guide, just make good enough items with the components you have and you'll save a ton of HP
Part of Set 17's comeback mechanic: Pengu will offer better rewards the lower your current placement in the lobby.
If players are already out, your placement is relative to the new bottom. E.g. if 1 player is dead, then 6th/7th will be offered the 5-costs on Stage 4.
