    @yawgmoth I'll miss playing your decks with this update. Is anyone else sad that we won't see Brian, Mersicide, Kilpher, Ultradaved and whoever else after this update? I can guarantee I won't miss Kilphers Kiora,but Yawgmoth's decks were fun, as were some of the other people's that I faced.

    There are a few decks that I would be ecstatic to never see again.  They are constructed purely to grief the player and are absolute punishment for anyone using a **** build for an event.

    if i was being honest, no.  their decks are the only ones i ever lose to.  enraged events are especially difficult.  

    maybe they'll have an event where we all get to face only their decks.  maybe a node for each player?

    Did they mention anywhere when the update is supposed to go live?

    Isn't the week of the 16th the current one?
    I always thought weeks start on Monday and end on Sunday (and apparently they do, according to ISO 8601)

    I unfortunately don't have an exact date, but I believe it's either Wednesday or Thursday of this week.

    I hope it arrives soon and is not delayed. Those multiple deck slots would make life so much easier.

    Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but the QA team discovered some critical bugs last night. The team was able to quickly fix it, however due to the way build submission works, unfortunately that means that the update will be delayed until sometime next week instead.

    Apologies for the inconvenience, but thanks for being patient!

    @Brigby unfortunate, but better than pushing out an update with bugs in it.

    Edit: Also, thank you for communicating this information to us.

    How will this effect events this week? Will we have Nodes of Power and Revolt again (possibly with the same prize)?

    If Rishkar's Expertise is going to be offered as a reward in Breaking Points this weekend you guys have got to do something about Baral before then. Either that or just give us another RatC. Don't let imprison loops decide who gets Rishkar's Expertise and who doesn't.

    @Brigby

    Does this mean that the Break Point event will also be pushed back by another week? Please tell me that you'll fix Baral and Rishkar's Expertise before launching that event.

    @DuskPaladin @majincob @Phase

    As of right this moment, there aren't any plans to change the weekend events. Having said that though, I will bring up this topic with the development team tomorrow during our next meeting.

    Thanks for bringing it up with them @Brigby. I hope you can come back to us with some good news, either with a Rishkar's Expertise nerf or a change in schedule (or even a Baral hotfix).

    To my knowledge, changing card mechanics is something that can't be implemented through a hotfix. I plan on investigating whether a change in event schedule or a change in the exclusive reward is possible.
