This is just getting out of control. I had one PW who I had to switch three times several times a day due to concurrent events.

You're welcome @qwweetrtr

    Yea. More events are great. So very awesome. Runes/gold/cards faster. But for people like me who doesn't want to go through the trouble/time of having to switch cards just to put vamps in or whatever each time is tiring. Not worth it. They did say a bit ago that they had an idea in the works on how to integrate it into the game but didn't go into any details.

    Well, if we didn't need deck slots before..............we really need them now as it's not one for the week and one for the weekend anymore. That's even disregarding players who change back for Quick Battles. We don't just want them we need them.


    I had people give me ideas like making lists on an Excel/Word Sheet so you can just see and it wouldn't take long or take a screen pic of your decks....but all that shouldn't be needed.

    This needs to be a high priority dev item.

    Yes, when we have our best planeswalkers doing triple-duty over 4 days, we need a good way to save decks without having to change them after every battle.

    I also like the multiple events-- in fact the 8 hour recharges bore me to death so it gives me something else to do-- but I am over switching decks. This needs to be #2 priority behind fixing matchmaking.

    Multiple deck slots for each pw would make this game a lot more user friendly. Hope the devs can accommodate.

    Deckslots are only part of the problem we need a better way to sort and scroll though the plainswalkers and then save multiple decks for each one.

    Yeah. The scroll is becoming an issue. Particularly when my device keeps deciding I selected one instead of scrolling.

    A simple Grid would probably be better at this point since the roster is only going to continue to grow.

    There is an alternative to deck slots.

    Currently there are 21 PWs in rotation. That's 21 potential decks. There is no reason you cannot have several alternative builds for each color to handle specific objectives. You can beat the AI with any PW and a well thought out deck.

    Even though that is what most of us have to do, it would still be nice to have multiple options per pw.

    Not only that but it takes a TON of runes to, you know....level the PW so you can use it in the first place. It's just not a simple "I'll use this PW for this deck and that PW for that deck." and also the whole color limitation thing for the events.

    Not in 5 turns.

    If the card search feature worked better, that would also be a tremendous help. For example, I should be able to type "sprirt" in the search and ANY CARD that that has the text spirit should be returned. This isnt even a hard thing to patch. Its a simple SQL statement if it was coded correctly to begin with.

    Nothing like an easy win in QB when I run into a deck built for an event! Thank you!

    I think the deck slots could be coming soon.
    I think so cause recently they are pushing multiple events and decks lots will most likely cost crystals
    So we will feel even more than in the past the urge to buy it.
    So they get more money out of it.

    By the way like any important change will come with little to no pre-advise.

    Edit: I meant crystal instead of runes of course...

    My idea for deck slots:
    Include 2 slots per PW, these would be specific to that PW only. Beyond the initial 2, additional slots could be purchased using runes...giving us something, other than leveling up PWs, to spend out runes on.
