The Bazaar guide: heroes, card changes and run rules

Season 20 began on November 4, 2026 with Patch 20.0 and the Tiny World expedition; Hotfix 20.1 followed on November 6, 2026. Every page here names the patch it was checked against. Vanessa is free; the other seven heroes come with Upgrade The Bazaar.

What should I build?
Three Season 20 carry items per hero, such as Runic Claymore for Karnok and Dragon Harp for the Dragons, with the pieces each needs.
How do I get 10 wins?
Win Days 1 to 5 with a Bronze opener, switch to a carry when Gold items arrive around Day 6, and upgrade it before Day 8.
What does Tiny World give?
The Day 10 expedition ends with the Sizeinator: selling it shrinks your leftmost Large or Medium item one size, freeing a board slot.
Is it free?
Free download with Vanessa. Upgrade The Bazaar ($29.99) adds the other seven heroes.
When does a run end?
At 10 PvP wins, or when Prestige runs out: you start with 20 and a loss costs the day number.
How does ranked work?
Bronze to Diamond by rank points, then Legendary from rating 500. Ranks reset each monthly season.
Can I play on mobile?
The Android beta logs into your normal account; owners pay nothing extra on mobile.
Steam or Tempo Launcher?
Link the same Tempo account to Steam on first launch; purchases carry over.
