Why has this event resurfaced? And why oh why are the rewards SOooOOOooo bad? No one wants to play this long tedious event, but since your gonna thrown it on our plate anyway you could have at least upped the rewards.

    @BATMAN1 You're wrong on all fronts.

    If you take the time to read the OP you will see why RotGP resurfaced. New objectives, new  rewards and more runes. In essence it isn't the same event you played in the past per se.

    and yes, they did in fact up the rewards

    and no,  I love this event as do many others ... Now BoFT is a different story... one that RotGP doesn't hold a torch to in regards to grind time.

    I know quite a lot of people are excited to play this event again, especially with the new objectives.

    Now personally I would prefer a Trial of Zeal re-run (since its the only one that hasn't come back yet), but its nice regardless to have a PvE that isn't the same one every weekend.

    Here’s the thing the rewards for this event were bad to start with, so adding a couple thousand runes doesn’t make it good all of a sudden. The new objectives? Who cares it’s still the same artwork, the same decks and the same abilities. This event was beat to death and back for 3-4 months when the other studio was closing so when you say there is a lot of people who like this event, I find it hard to believe. Whenever they announce this event, you can almost here the groans shaking the mtgpq universe. If they wanna revisit and recycle old events in the future there are plenty to pick from, it doesn’t have to be this old song and dance.

    im very surprised that one of the objectives on 3.1 is to deal 20 or more damage total

    were the new objectives assigned at random

    What about Fate is Rarely Fair! Now I have vehicles!

    on topic:
    This event used to be super tedious. This was particularly the case when it had 4 hour refresh timers. Now it should be much better, especially considering how long BoFT and AM is in comparison. I haven't look at the rewards yet but I had no plan to play perfect this time, aiming for progression minimum, so I can't say much about that part of it yet.

    I'm no fan of RotGP, but I'm excited to give it a whirl with new objectives. We've asked for objective changes for a long time.

    Same here! I think it'll take a very different approach to competing objectives this time around

    I’m really excited to play this event. I’ve always liked it and new objectives give it an interesting spin. Especially these objectives! Pauper? 20 Damage in one turn! 

    We’ve been begging for fresh and interesting objectives and Oktagon answered. Sure, they could have saved these objectives for a new event, but at what cost? Pushing back M19? Not fixing bugs? 

    One thing I appreciate about Oktagon is they frequently make small updates to existing content. I believe that says a lot about priorities. When Hibernum was pushing out tons of new content back to back, the game broke. 

    Also, I’ve seen nothing but positive feedback about the changes — no collective groans. 
    well youve seen at least one bit of feedback that was negative

    Mildly disappointed we don’t get to use sets relevent to the event setting. No Amonhket cards even though our opponents will be using them.

    3 nodes event is ideal. New objectives was a good idea. The event got better! But the rewards could be updated with super pack or rare card. 3-cards basic booster and xxxx runes are discouraging...

    I was very burnt out on this event. I've played it more than any other event . I played it to the point that getting a perfect score was muscle memory. I'll admit that I groaned when I saw it come back, but the new objectives make it fun again. The rewards were and will likely remain unexciting, but that's just how it is. The majority of us aren't hurting for rares . I don't really think that's the point for a lot of us . Hanging out and chatting tinykitty with my coalition is fun . That's really the only reason I play events. I have all the rares .

    I would like to play in this event, but can’t because of the server issues. Can’t even open my free packs without crashing the app.
