App closing regularly on iPhone.

Anyone else finding that since the last update the app just closes randomly?

I am on an iPhone 6S+ so it's not like it's an old iPhone that would struggle!

It cost me roughly 10 games in the last QB cycle and it has now cost me a second game in this event and frankly I am pissed off. I didn't care so much in the QB games, but it has cost me a chance at the exclusive card and it feels really bad knowing that I won't get it because the app just closes mid game.

What the hell can I do to avoid this? I tried closing all my apps and restarting my phone and it made no difference.

What the hell.

    Just had my third crash with an iPhone 6+. All with Kiora in longer fights without a ton of energized gems. Have to have at least some energized gems for this event.

    I had multiple force closes on an iPhone 6 in the last Fateful Showdown event. One was a board with a lot of fabricate, and the other with a lot of energize. Most frustrating was that I wasn't doing anything at the time on the second one. The AI took his turn and crashed.

    ...aaaand another crash, this one on just entering a game. Straight to home screen, not even a "something went wrong" message.

    It's just my alt, so no big deal. However, this is absolutely terrible for those competing for the prize. No chance to redo it, just an instant loss, which can put you completely out of the running. Pretty sad.

    what ios are you using? i too am using 6s+ but on ios9.3. i didn't update. like they say, if it ain't broken...

    so far, fingers crossed, i didn't get any freeze or app closing issues. the worst case was severe lag whenever either me or ai is filling up a fetch card with mana or there are tonnes of energise or fabricate gems on the board.

    I have issues when specific cards are ready to be cast. The main one that comes to mind is Deploy the Gatewatch. If there are several suppprts and energized gems everything slows way down and freezes when this card is ready to cast.

    That's cause a cellphone can't handle the amount of calculation required...

    Looking through FORTY cards?! Are you serious? Not even NASA computers can handle it!!!

    Happened to me tonight on 3.3 -- can't remember the last time I had a freeze.

    Bumping so maybe the devs will take notice.

    I've had a lot of teammates reporting multiple crashes this time around as well. Maybe whatever they did to chase off Gideon caused some other issues, or maybe Gideon sabotaged something on his way out.

    Just happened to me on n3e1 on the second turn with only 3 fabricates in play. Can see the walkers abilities and bring up the menus and chat. The rest of the board is frozen. iPhone 6s+

    I'm at two freezes for this one. 3.3 when I paused to check my support count and 2.3 when the board was completely covered in servos, energy and supports.
