 * Scolosaurus
 * This Common ankylosaurid is a balanced tank. It has less Health than the typical ankylosaur. In exchange, it has decent armor and access to Swap In Defense and a Rampage special ability. Its basic attack is Vulnerability Strike. This creature’s usage is pretty straightforward: make the opponent creature vulnerable, then smack it with 2×1.5 = 3x damage!
 * Scaphognathus
 * As a Rare tiny pterosaur, this speedy but low health Rhamphorhynchid has access to great mobility thanks to its Swap in Wound and Swoop. Regeneration lets you stay alive while your DoT does its work–you can also free yourself from any pesky Pinning effects that would prevent you from Swooping away! Hint: use Pinning Strike to let the opponent take more Damage-Over-Time in order to set up your Swoop!
 * Maiasaura
 * Famously discovered by paleontologist Jack Horner, the Maiasaura makes an appearance in Jurassic World Alive! This Epic Resilient hadrosaur has great mobility thanks to Swap in Stun and Impact and Run. It stays ahead of the speed race with a Superiority Strike. Facing a slower creature with Instant abilities, or you’re slowed down by the opponent? The Maiasaura can get around these problems thanks to Instant Rampage.
 * Pachycephalosaurus
 * The Resilient Epic thick skulled lizard from Wyoming dives head-first into the fray! The stubborn Pachycephalosaurus can withstand punishment thanks to its ever-available Shielding Strike. It has great mobility thanks to its Swap in Stun and Rampage and Run. It relies on its Decelerating Impact to keep up the speed advantage after coming in with a stunning entrance!

Three of the four hybrids below feature predominantly Damage-Over-Time-based abilities in order to pressure opponent creatures to either manually swap to someone else, use an ability that does it for them, cleanse the bleed off or suffer the consequences.

NULLIFICATION HYBRIDS We were planning to develop a few Nullification-centric Hybrids. Which type of creature should be used as a Nullification creature? Based on player feedback, the results were in two camps: either fast or tanky.
 * Darwezopteryx
 * The OP-teryx creatures join forces together! Darwinopterus and Hatzegopteryx are merged into a Fierce “Long term goal, easily accessible ingredient” Legendary hybrid. With higher-than-average speed and HP, Darwezopteryx has mobility (Swoop, Swap in Wound), defense(Instant Invincibility) and offense (Defense Shattering Impact)! It can gain the upper hand in the speed race and remove a distraction penalty thanks to Superiority Strike.
 * Edmontoguanodon
 * What’s better than an Iguanodon? One fused with more Hadrosaur DNA! This Resilient Epic hybrid has the damage, HP and speed that you’re used to with Hadrosaurs. As usual, Superiority Strike lets you stay ahead of the speed race. Edmontoguanodon combines Stuns (Swap In Stun, Greater Stunning Rampage) with nullification (Nullifying Impact). Edmontoguanodon can use its priority Regenerate and Run in order to Cleanse and Heal up to half of its hefty health pool before swapping to the next creature!
 * Pterovexus
 * Vex your opponents with this Fierce Unique pterosaur superhybrid! Monomimus DNA fused with that of Darwinopterus creates an Immune and mobile pterosaur (thanks to its Swap in Wound and Swoop). This balanced pterosaur has accurate offense thanks to Nullifying Impact as well as survivability thanks to its Distracting Impact. PTEROVEXUS completes its ability set with an always-available Pinning Strike in order to set up some guaranteed Damage Over Time turns!
 * Stygidaryx
 * This Fierce Unique superhybrid combines the DNA of Stygimoloch GEN2 and Darwezopteryx. With balanced attributes, highly mobile STYGIDARYX boasts a high speed that rivals the Indoraptor’s. Withstand the opposition thanks to your Swap In Invincibility and Instant Invincibility! Remain mobile and overwhelm your opponent’s health over time thanks to Lethal Swoop. Did you just withstand the opponent’s attack thanks to a well-timed Swap in Invincibility and you are now Bound for 2 turns? Well, you can get out of this sticky situation on the first turn by using Cleanse and Swoop! Last but not least, using Superiority Strike lets STYGIDARYX gain the speed advantage for one crucial turn, potentially setting up a daring exit using one of the Swoops.

In both cases, having access to a Swap In Nullification seemed quite important! This prompted us to carefully pick abilities for the following two hybrids. CREATURE BALANCING
 * Procerathomimus
 * The Battle-Exclusive Proceratosaurs is mixed with Ornithomimus DNA in order to create a Cunning Epic hybrid. Its high damage & extreme speed combination still manages to maintain a decent health pool. The new Swap In Nullification lets you remove the opponent’s positive effects (and those pesky cloaks!) on the turn Procerathomimus comes in. Do it on demand thanks to the always-available Nullifying Strike. Get a chance to avoid the brunt of the offense thanks to Evasive Stance! To top it off, Procerathomimus has access to Distracting Rampage and Instant Distraction! With this powerful combination, you can reduce the opponent’s damage to zero (or 10% if they are under a Ferocity effect) for one crucial turn. Last but not least, Procerathomimus is Immune to any negative effects that your opponent might throw at you!
 * Skoolasaurus
 * Smiley-faced Koolasuchus teams up with Scolosaurus to create a Legendary hybrid. As a Nullification-centric creature, it always has access to Nullifying Strike. It tops off the ability set with Swap In Nullification, Rampage, Slowing Impact and Long Protection. Bulky Skoolasaurus retains some of its Scolosaurus parent’s armor, while having a higher speed than the Scolosaurus thanks to its Koolasaurus ancestry.

 * Dracoceratops
 * Dracoceratops receives an overhaul in order to be a “better Dracorex Gen2”. It becomes a versatile tool in a team’s arsenal. Suffering from the opponent Pounces? Dracoceratops is actually at its best against Cunning creatures because Swap In Abilities trigger even before the fastest priority moves! With access to Regeneration, you can Cleanse off the Bound status effect that your Swap-In incurred (and be ready to leave next turn).
 * Attack decreased to 1,160. HP reduced to 3,000. Speed reduced to 109. Swap in Stun becomes Swap in Shattering Rampage! Abilities become Rampage, following its Triceratops GEN2 parent, Acute Stun, and Regeneration.
