About Support removal mechanics: there is a problem about trying to destroy the correct support you need to destroy when there are a lot of them in play and sometimes turns removals useless. For example playing vs PWs like Ajani, Invigorate Leadership who generate lot of supports in play, sometimes removal destroy those supports (I remember there was a time where non token supports were prioritized, I don't know how it exactly works now) and even when you don’t play vs a massive support making pw, you can spend some turns trying to destroy one support and random god are not on your side and finally you lost the game just for this. I think it would be a better way to treat with supports, maybe adding some options to choose when a spell or ability is going to destroy a support like 1-most costly one 2-most shields one, or something like that.Answer: Thank you for sharing your suggestion. The number of support tokens has indeed increased in recent sets. The game design team constantly shifts their focus to introduce new experiences and updates to older interaction styles. The aspect you mentioned has received increased attention recently, but the focus on interactions with these supports too may see a change, in the future.
When will we be getting more filters for cards? I think the community has been asking for legacy/standard filters, is this on your “to-do” list or not and if so, how long can we expect until it’s rolled out?
Would it be possible to add the option to export/import decks like other card games have? With so many expansions, having to save screenshots to have specific decks for events with different objectives becomes tedious if you have to look at the screenshot and then change each card, especially in a mobile game.Answer: Yes, we’d love to have this tool and it is in our backlog. This feature is actually more complicated than it looks so we don’t have a release date for this yet. For the time being, we are focusing our efforts on other features, but we are aware of this one.
The secondary objectives of nearly all current standard events are based on 'game play restrictions/objectives' (cast x things, dont win before x turns, flip X times,etc) as opposed to 'deck construction restrictions/objectives' (deck must contain x, can't contain x, etc) . Is this something that you're conscious of? Is this something you'd consider taking into account in the future?Answer: When we create events, we try to bring some identity to each one and make sure they fit their theme. So we think of an event within itself and not with the goal of balancing objectives among all of them. This way, deck construction or any other kind of restrictions will come up when they make sense with the event’s flavor, lore and intended strategic challenge.
Would it be possible to get a list of (retired) events vs events that are currently being played. Now we do have a full list on wiki. And it may help some players, especially if we can add an edit to Wikipedia.Answer: We now have an updated list of current events available! Here are the Coalition events and here is the rotation for individual events. We’ll keep this list updated as new events are released and some others are fixed or revamped. Also, some surprise events may appear from time to time. As for the ones not listed, they may be out of rotation for a number of reasons and we are not providing a list so as not to create wrong expectations.
Hello, everyone!
Hope you are all well.
Here's another Q&A SESSION. You can send your questions through this link and we'll answer here the ones sent up to December 31st.
This is the same link as previous month because this form with remain open continuously, so you can keep sending questions even if there is not an official post 'open'.
