    They should get rid of all refreshes on all events.

    There should be a minimum of 3 zombies in your deck in the rules. 

    With the new requirement structure that allows deck checking this is a MUCH nicer way to force this...

    Requirement 1: Have at least 3 zombies in deck
    Requirement 2: Cast 7 creatures

    Please no. I hate such objectives. I understand the rationality here, but I'd feel really limited by such decision . One zombie and good combination of fetch is enough to cover the objectives .

    Whose bright idea is it to start the event with max charges?  For the most of us that cant start the event right away, will insure that we cant not get rank 1 or even any high rank.  We loose charges before we even start. 

     Thanks for being considerate.

    I don't know why this is so hard .Any event in which tokens have counted, they haven't counted in all cases . That means tokens counting is a bug . Summon means cast, as tokens are no longer summoned, they're created . It's a little confusing if you're new , but if you aren't, summon means cast. If you get lucky and tokens count, consider it a bonus. The alternative is that you believe that the devs intended for 2 objectives to be achieved off of a single loyalty activation.

    No, Cast means cast.

    Summon means create, fetch, summon, return, or cast.

    If they want Creatures to count only when cast from hand, use the Cast keyword on the objective. (Additionally, all support related objectives should use Cast)
    If they want Creatures to count regardless of how they hit the field, use the Summon keyword.

    The main problem is the wording they use on the cards doesn't match the wording on the requirements.

    The cards _say_ summon, it only makes sense (to the untrained eye...) that they will count!


    Alas, non-sense.

    @HarryMason - no, the problem is the A != A so summon on one card does not equate to summon elsewhere in the app. It gets compounded when Z = A,B,C sometimes and at other times it means A,B,D,E. 

    The problem has been spotlighted numerous times, but have been handled very inconsistent through the years.

    I wish D3/Octagon would take one keyword at a time and go through all cards and objectives among other things and get it sorted like they did with lands a while back.

    Game has hung twice during this 2nd run, replacing zombies with other zombies :(:(

    Think it's something to do with building over Relentless Dead but not 100% sure :/
    I really hope that isn't the cause.  The game crash from replacing Relentless Dead and/or Prizad Amalgam was fixed almost 3 years ago (not exaggerating).  If its back that is a very very very bad sign for the future of this game

    It's probably too late to help anyone else but: I was about 90% through the second run of this event before I realized I could use Vanquisher's Banner and [any random assortment of zombies] as the card-drawing engine in an Omniloop deck. Promptly played 18+ zombies in each of the my remaining matches with no trouble at all and in like half the time. I honestly just feel really dumb for having spent so long trying to summon all those zombies the honest way.

    Set alarm for 2am final charge since event ends at 3am ..only lose 1 point so far.  Then lost to a **** djinn wish deck that had zero zombie that went 70 rounds. Wasted an hour of sleep for this?   Isnt there so many thing wrong with this?

    speaking of wording issue.  Bolas 2  3rd ability that Prevent Drawing doesn't prevent Djinn's Wish "DRAW" a card.

    OMG, I just got my sleep and this made me feel so much better for not waking up to finish my charge....  I am sorry. 

    You are right, this game should not be waking anybody up in the middle of the night.  Where is the common sense?

    I think we're all forgetting the theme of the event: Zombies!  It seems the idea was you had to turn yourself into a zombie through lack of sleep to be competitive. ;)

    Try playing against lichs mastery and it doesn't trigger the damage after the support is destroyed.  I think I went 100+ rounds.
