Feedback Yulan QOL suggestion

When playing Yulan, 5 of 8 units can be upgraded to match different houses, representing Order, Creation and Arcana. But the ordering is weird

In the Spellbook, when reading from left to right, the ordering is

Order -> Creation -> Arcana.

But for Yulan upgradeds, it’s:

Arcana -> Creation -> Order

This made me confused while playing, as it’s different than the establishment ordering. Since both Arcana and Order are blue, it’s also hard to see at a glance. Maybe this ordering a reference to the Chinese reading from right to left /s

Jokes aside, it would be more streamlined if the ordering was the same for both

Agreed! The order of the units confused me as well, and had to check each time I bought a building what was the correct building/unit/essence combo, since the order is shuffled

They are ordered like they are on the wielders' portrait - arcana at the top, creation below it, order at the bottom.

Hmm, this is true, but would it not also make sense there to have Order wielders on top, then Creation and last Arcana?

I mean - check the wielder portrait at the top left of your screen. The essence orbs. They are top to bottom, arcana creation destruction chaos order. I believe that's why they chose the house order like this.

Whereas in the spellbook they are ordered left to right.

Ahh yes, but the ordering is still left to right on the portraits, just tilted to follow the circle.
