War is coming, with all its glory, and all its horror. After ten long years, the fight rages on. This time, you get a little help in pushing back the enemy.
Fireworks - Enemies launch a dazzling fireworks display upon death, dealing damage to your nearby units.
Lucky Envelopes - Festive envelopes containing resource pickups are dropped at random throughout the map.
Gift Exchange - Gifts are periodically deployed around the map. If you don’t claim them, Amon will!
Rating:
[Edit] This mutation is actually quite brutal. Can easily be 3-5 depending on what gift amon gets.

Other Notes:
- Ten years ago today, Blizzard released Starcraft II: Wings of Liberty. Happy 10-year anniversary!
- When a gift spawns, it will [appear on the minimap] . However, players [cannot begin to claim gifts] until 40 seconds after the gift spawns.
- [Players must send any unit] near the gift and clear any nearby enemies to begin claiming it.
- Claiming a gift takes 20 seconds.
- Whenever players get two consecutive gifts, Amon always [steals the next one] . Players cannot stop Amon’s thievery. What a jerk.
- Fireworks target a spot with your units after an enemy unit dies. The more enemies, the more fireworks.
- Fireworks deal area damage to units standing in a targeted circle after a few seconds.
- Fireworks damages buildings as well.
- Lucky envelopes is a flat out buff. Nothing about this makes the mission any more difficult.
- The lucky envelopes give 50 minerals or gas to both allies when picked up.
