OKTAGON Q&A Session - July 2023

Magic:PQ Support Team

1. Are there plans to add new content to MTGPQ prior to Wilds of Eldraine?
   Answer: The next batch of new content is scheduled to join the game with Wilds of Eldraine.

2. Can you please add a feature that allows us to scroll through the leaderboard of a running event? In case we lose an objective or a match, it is sometimes useful to see how many players have a perfect score to assess if it's worthwhile to keep playing matches. Currently it is only possible to see a few players above and below your own score.
   Answer: This is an interesting feature suggestion, thanks for bringing it to our attention. We’ll be discussing the viability with our development team for a future update.

3. Is the dev team still in the process of evaluating whether any changes need to be made to Danitha/Blade of Shared Souls? How many more months will they need to consider this issue?
   Answer: The balancing changes for Danitha, Benalia’s Hope and Kiora, Sovereign of the Deep were announced here

4. What are the plans for the game moving forward? There have been no new developments, or things to look forward to, communicated to the player base, good or bad. Why?
   Answer: As we already mentioned in some Q&A and comments, we recently went through some internal restructuring. We’re excited to share some news with you soon, one that not only connects with but also gives context to this process and its related challenges.

5. What about Lord of The Rings set?
   Answer: Due to the way licensing agreement for this Intellectual Property was structured, it is not currently possible to bring the Lord of the Rings: Tales of Middle Earth set to Magic the Gathering: Puzzle Quest.

6. Can you tell us if the cards from Jumpstart will permanently stay in Standard format? I was unable to find an answer to this question looking for it on the forum.
   Answer: Currently we have no plans of removing our current Jumpstart set from the Standard format, but we might review this decision in the future.

@Oktagon_Support : When can we expect answers to these questions? I would also like to add that there is another turn 1 kill combo because of the bugged Kiora masterpiece. Danitha / Blade is already killing the game. Please nerf both of them asap!

Edit: To be honest, I really don't know why you need this long to make these changes? You've shown in the past that you were able to fix broken things as fast as a single day. This is taking months already, which is unacceptable. Fix your broken game, because players are leaving. No one wants that. Standard doesn't want T1 combos.

Hey guys,
I wanted to let you know that the team asked for a little extra time to answer questions this month, so responses may be a little late. But once all questions are answered, I will post them here for you!
Thanks for your patience.
