    Hi @Klep ,
    This is actually intentional. 
    The Elite Collection Boosters are a special selection of cards from each set. 
    The former Exclusive Cards do not enter these rotations.
    @Oktagon_Support
    So I know for a fact that they used to.  As a person that edits the elite pack tracker a lot, I can tell you I have to go back and add the cards to the list here:

    Examples:
    Mass Minipulation, Szadek, Borborygmos; exclusives that are now in the elite packs

    @Oktagon_Support was it your intentions to exclude players that don't fit into the languages your game now supports re: Russian speaking players and Chinese speaking players?? Those are just two examples

    We are truly sorry about not having posted anything in the Release Notes about that fact beforehand.
    We are looking forward to the upcoming releases with new features and the next collections which will be fully supported in the following languages:  
    • English 
    • French
    • German
    • Spanish
    • Japanese
    • Brazilian Portuguese

    Uhhhh.... say what?

    Why the hell are you excluding Chinese, Korean, Italian and Russian players that might not be very proficient with English?

    Man, all the buildup respect I had the last few weeks is all gone now. I fully agree with @Julie71, you suck.

    Completely agree with the prevailing sentiment regarding the termination of the option of playing in the mentioned languages.

    For the edification of whoever wrote the release, "Chinese" is not a language.  Most probably either Mandarin or Cantonese are meant, probably the former.

    Not using the in-game mail to announce this beforehand, so sparing the affected players data download costs should they choose not to continue playing is also disgraceful.  Then again, this seems to be exclusively used for commercial mailings, so what do you expect?

    Why Korea and China were cut is difficult to understand, as these areas are home to a large number of gamers.

    Will non-English versions slowly be whittled away with time, because "everyone speaks English anyway" or perhaps some other reason?

    Both the concept and execution of abovementioned linguistic debacle were boorish and insulting, and not a credit to the game designers.

    Actually, Mandarin and Cantonese (and from what I understand other Chinese dialects) all use the same written language.  The languages differ only in pronunciation.

    So I think "Chinese" is actually a pretty accurate way to describe it.

    But yeah, it makes no sense that the largest market in the world is being shut out of a mobile game.

    This raises another question: Do players in these regions retain their ideographic IGNs or have these been Latinised?
