About to push Artifact 1.1 and we just passed 8.2 million matches played since launch! (6 million of those are gauntlet matches.) Of total hours spent, 53.2% are in draft and the rest in constructed. The median player has played for 9 hours and 83% have played some form of PvP.

There was a Reddit panic about an exploit that allowed purchasing packs at a discounted rate. The exploit was quickly fixed and only about $2500 in card value entered the economy this way - a negligible amount relative to the market size and hourly volume.
In advance of Thursday’s update we’re changing the gauntlet rotation date that displays in the client. This is just a weird side effect of this week’s update and doesn’t mean anything else.
@HarrisFoster We'll talk to the team.
This week's update will be on Thursday.
@retsopuk We hear you. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yoy4_h7Pb3M
There's more, but we'll leave the details for the update. We also plan for another update next week (then a break over Christmas). Then more work next month. We're in this for the long haul.
@MS10EL Yup. Default settings: you have to opt-in to see custom messages, but can see the prefab lines. If you opt-in to custom messages it lasts the rest of that game. You can click an X on any opponent line to mute, which mutes your opponent for the rest of the game.
Another feature this week: color blind accessibility options. We've added optional suit icons to all colored cards. We've also added a color blind saturation setting to help make green and red easier to distinguish. This impacts cards, the HUD, and the deck builder. http://pbs.twimg.com/media/DuHAo0lWwAAe_kL.jpg
Update coming this week. One feature is chat. Possess your cards and make them speak, send custom messages, or invite your opponent to a traditional Steam Chat. Make your heroes say voice lines. One click opt-in to custom messages from non-friends. One click blocking. http://pbs.twimg.com/media/DuG_f-OWsAEkK5A.jpg

@ajpotato214 @DOTA2 Every game of Dota is the last battle at the end of time. Games of Artifact are recreations of historical events — out of which come insights into preventing or overcoming that last battle.So according to @dota2 lore, every game of Dota is really a bunch of guys playing @PlayArtifact to try and alter hi… https://t.co/ogRjjPQnxp
6,056,282 cards have been traded on the Steam Market since launch!
Some discussion of the social and tournament features in Artifact. Did you know there's no time limit on a tournament? You can set one up and run it like a league, where you advance the series every few days and everyone plays matches at their own pace.
