More Hidden buffs: FOREST - all allies gain Hit Speed bonus

Another "Hidden Balance Changes" patch...

I might have missed it, or this is brand new... (I am pretty sure I was checking all traits)

Previously hit speed bonus was given to the invisible one. Also numbers changed:
30% -> 15%
50% -> 30%
100% - > 60%
This is a buff - attack speed given to all troops for all time

Can one Trait even work?

In a recent Merge Tactics video, Retaik shared insights from his discussions with the developers. According to him, the team's goal is to make the game easy to learn but hard to master.

One way to do this could be by gradually unlocking mechanics as players climb through trophies and ranks instead of introducing everything at once. In the attached video, MTGG founder Pilgrim also shared how this kind of progression system could work.

Right now, the main mechanics are Modifiers, Rulers, Traits, and Quests. Unlocking them step by step could make the game easier for new players to learn while still keeping plenty of depth for experienced players. It could also make it easier to add new mechanics in the future and help reduce the impact of RNG at higher levels.

What do you think would be the best order for unlocking these mechanics? And what else could Supercell do to make Merge Tactics easy to learn but hard to master?

Hidden Balance changes (Musketeer Damage)

Musketeer damage was nerfed, but there was no public announcement from supercell

The change wasn't mentioned in the balance notes for either patch.

Was this an intended nerf that was left out of the patch notes, or is it a reporting/data error?

Old - New Damage:

⭐ 149 - 124 (-16.78%)

⭐⭐ 269 - 223 (-17.10%)

⭐⭐⭐ 483 → 401 (-16.98%)

⭐⭐⭐⭐ 869 - 722 (-16.92%)

That's roughly a 17% damage decrease across all star levels.
