Hitting the Pit

By now, you've had a taste of the arena and are no doubt hungry for more. Heavy Hitters is a remarkably complex set with boundless nooks and crannies to explore, but aside from the stellar limited gameplay and powerful constructed support cards, Heavy Hitters also brings something else entirely to the table - the evolution of Ultimate Pit Fight!

Heavy Hitters is designed to support casual games across the kitchen table in very unique ways, such as a brand new Ultimate Pit Fight Draft - where eight players rip open packs, draft their decks, split into two groups for a bout of Ultimate Pit Fight - until the victor of each group face off in a final 1v1 to determine the champion!

Alternatively you and your mates can pick up the new Heavy Hitters Blitz Decks and jump straight into some multiplayer madness! The decks are designed to be played straight out of the box against each other in regular 1v1 games, but they also work incredibly well for Ultimate Pit Fight. Bring a friend along to try it out and make their first game an unforgettable one!

Heavy Hitters contains several multiplayer-friendly treasures that will completely change the landscape of Ultimate Pit Fight, bringing the insanity to a whole new level! Plan your fights, equip your hero, and prepare for battle!

Primed to Fight

I'm not gonna lie to you - it can get rough out there if the table decides you're the biggest threat. Most heroes can reliably keep up in a 1v1 battle, but surviving multiple onslaughts with only four cards in hand is a brutal way to go, especially if you lack the thick armour that Guardians, Warriors (and just recently, Brutes) are known for.

The new Bladebreak equipment in Heavy Hitters offers one hell of an insurance policy. While this gear may seem simple and unassuming in a 1v1 game, it truly shines in multiplayer, protecting the underdog at the table from absurd amounts of damage. The best part? It's all Generic, allowing anyone to keep scrapping without fear of getting their teeth kicked in!

Enter the Arena

Landmarks return with the Deathmatch Arena, a truly stunning Fabled that you're now realising you've been looking at all this time...

The Deathmatch Arena spices up Ultimate Pit Fight by breaking the barriers that once caused alliances to be forged and bargains to be struck. When this landmark hits the table, suddenly it's a frenzied free-for-all, with some mouthwatering rewards to encourage the bloodshed. Will your friendships survive the prospect of a cold hard cash payout? Did you even really have a moral compass to begin with?

Nasty Surprises

A core strength of the Generics in Heavy Hitters comes not from raw power, but from flexibility and utility. Many of the new Majestics are expected to make a splash in constructed formats, but they also have surprisingly interesting niche uses in Ultimate Pit Fight as well.

Did you get Pummelled by a janky Katsu or lose the top card of your deck to a Grinding Gears loop? Nasty Surprise will punish anyone who targets you with a silly strategy! Many unique gameplans in Ultimate Pit Fight revolve around creating tokens, and what better way to mess with that than Ripple Away? Find out what the suspiciously quiet player at the table is planning with Seduce Secrets so you won't get caught off guard!

Please Let It Hit?

Wager is a new mechanic that creates interesting defending situations for the opponent, but it also plays an super fun role in Ultimate Pit Fight. Negotiate with another player to let your wager hit or offer yourself as a target in order to fully defend and reap the rewards - let the mind games commence!

Taking One For the Team

Clash is a new mechanic that creates some hilarious situations in Ultimate Pit Fight. Picking who you clash with, such as a scrawny Wizard, allows you to really showcase your strength, as well as making the most of your defending cards if you're taking heat from the table.

But the juiciest part of clashing in Ultimate Pit Fight comes from the ability to goad others into attacking you when they absolutely shouldn't. Convince them you're a noble martyr, taking one for the team, when in reality you're just winning free stuff! Or you can talk a big game and convince them to back down instead of running into clashes you don't even have!

Heavy Hitters lands on shelves this weekend, with Play Day events taking place worldwide! If you're a fan of casual games with crazy shenanigans and spicy banter, now's the time to Hit the Pit!
