The Secrets of Solis will contain 60 new cards, many of which feature brand new mechanics to the game. For example there's abilities like Consistent, which means that once a card is leveled it's guaranteed to be in the top 20 cards of your deck when you shuffle; Solbind, which makes a card come with other cards (meaning you can finally have a deck bigger than 30 cards); and Banish, which lets you remove cards from your deck for good! For an example of that latter ability check out the recently revealed Toorgmai Guardian.
The game UI will be updated as well to give you a better idea of how the game plays. As they explain on the official blog, you'll be able to see your discard pile now, which is essential for card abilities that target discarded cards, like Toorgmai's. It also seems like you'll just generally have a better idea of how the game flows, since you'll be able to see how many cards are left in your deck, which ones are leveled up, and even see the discard pile getting shuffled back into the main deck every time you level up. Most people didn't even know that was happening!
Another blog update allows us to meet Forge Guardian Delta, a new card that offers you another way to summon Forge Guardian Omega, possibly the strongest card in the game. Omega could only be summoned by combining all the other Guardians (Alpha, Beta, Gamma), Voltron-like, into one monster, but it was hard to get the necessary five cards out in order to make it happen. Delta makes it a bit easier and Omega itself has been updated and improved with the Consistent ability, meaning that you can plan on seeing a whole lot of Guardian decks being built up after this Set hits.
We here at GameNGuide are really excited to get our hands on these SolForge cards ourselves when The Secrets of Solis drops soon. Expect reduced output on the site as the entire staff gets sucked back into one of the finest card games around.
