    Shouldn’t exile count on the “lose 3 or more creatures “ objective. AJ1 creatureless StW/Starfield wiped my board multiple times (I had support removal but it kept getting set-up) I still won thanks in part to masterminds acquisition, but lost the objective. I thought exile was the definition of “lost”? (Also lost the kill x or more creatures objective obviously)

    I think "lose" is a reference to die, which means having to leave the battlefield and go straight to the graveyard.  Exile is just exile.  Otherwise it would also trigger if you bounced the creature to your hand.  Not saying I would be against those other ways of completing the objective, just explaining why it has to die for it to count

    I figured but left a bad taste loosing due to things compleatly out of my control i.e. no creatures to kill and mine getting exiled. I think there is another thread I could be on about bad objectives though.

    I can empathize with you there

    This app is crashing way too often. And it does so on different smartphone models in different occasions. I don't remember an event where no one reported a freeze/crash/floating cards/switching to another app and whatnot. It is already annoying in TG for the loss of lifetime to a technical error, but it is infuriating in "serious" events like the current HoD where one loss simply catapults you from valuetown.

    This time it got me, last time two of my team mates and others from TP9, I mean, for god's sake, we were thinking of doing a drinking game for each freeze/crash during the event, that's how predictable these are. 

    And worst thing about this: it has been going on since more than a year! I have tried so many phone related "solutions", restarting the app between matches, clearing app data, reinstalling, and every time I had the feeling, oh, it's better now: boom, crash out of nothing.

    yeah mine still crashes pretty frequently too, I'm just lucky it usually happens at the end of the event and still counts the victory.  Though having to re-login after every match is annoying

    I had four freezes this event. One point dropped otherwise. No rhyme or reason to them, 2 on right and 2 on left. 

    The kicker is, with 4 freezes and one dropped point, I’m still top 50. That doesn’t say much for what others are probably experiencing.

    You must be in another bracket than me then. Points dropped in total for me is 26 (three losses and 5 missed points on 10 or less damage).
    And I'm currently #200.

    I start the event Saturday morning EST so I’m usually in the second bracket.

    I was wondering the same thing. I lost 3 and missed some points and I'm #216 in plat.

    Also since it's the rant thread, Omniscience is such a **** card. All 3 of my losses were against a first turn cascade into Omniscience (one of them was double Omni on T1!!!). I didn't even know this MP was standard legal still, so I wasn't expecting it to show up, but it did and it wrecked my face.

    It's HoU, so while we're safe from cycling now we're not yet safe from Omni.  I am looking forward to that rotating out as well and the last of the broken cards from past sets fading into legacy

    thanks for the info!  Yeah I worked late yesterday and came home looking forward to some new chapters in the Dominaria saga and was like "What the tinykitty it's over already??"

    Just another example of the player base being left in the dark until enough of the rabble is roused.  I can't imagine how the players who don't check the threads feel about this game at times.

    Reading on the forum that a player got twice the HoD rewards than me when they had a loss of at least 7pts due to a loss and I lost a total of 4pts to a second objective that can be so random. Dropped me to 26th place.

    I got owned by a choke and I wasn't even playing blue. I think I threw 4 demystify at it. It was like it got the secret hixus text . Indestructible. I'm pretty sure I created some new curse words because of it . And it was AI . I could have just noped out. But then my ego was all 'don't be a tinykitty , bruh' . I feel so demoralised.

    Just had the most painful Across Ixalan experience, 1 point off from completing any secondary objective 3 times, and game froze as I was about to win 2 games in a row.  Yarrrgh

    You wouldn't, it breaks no rules and insults no one.
