    Vraska's first specifically targets the support with the highest shield count.  That isn't the same as targeting a non-token support, since it is much less random (you can still hit a 2 shield Gideon's Defeat instead of a 4 shield Starfield with a normal support killer or Haphazard Bombardment, but Vraska's first will always target the Starfield).

    Brigby said he will get clarification from the devs, so hopefully we'll get a definitive answer soon.
    Sure... but that's not my point.  In the scenario where there a treasure with one shield, and hixis with one shield on the board... will Vraska's A1 target Hixis to align with this change to support destruction targeting?

    Of course.. the answer is currently "no" if what khurram says is true.

    Ah, I misunderstood.  I'm not sure how Vraska's First handled ties before, so I can't speak to how it may have changed.

    That being said, if what @khurram says is true, we have bigger problems, since it means Vraska's first no longer targets based on highest shield count like it is supposed to.  That is a really big deal.

    lol... if Vraska works this way... she is pretty useless until that is corrected.

    Vraska does in fact no longer target the support with the highest shield count. She just destroyed a random 1-shield treasure in spite of several supports on the board with shield-counts up to 10. @Brigby

    @Brigby, in hod event this weekend July 15 our coalition members have played for head to head matches, I don't think we should be playing against our own members, when so many people are playing, what do you think

    Heh. @Hatter It's a quandary... Other people love playing their teammates, it's one of the few ways to hear how Greg plays your decks.

    Thanks for the heads up. I'll pass that along to the QA team for investigation.

    I didn't even know you could face your teammates.  I'd only faced a couple of them and that was months after they were no longer part of the group. :o

    Demolish now doesn't target the indestructible supports anymore. It does autocast anyway, even with no other supports on the board, it just fizzles @brigby.

    Tangentially, one thing I would absolutely love is if you could voluntarily play TG-style matches against the decks of your coalition-mates. It'd be tremendous fun.

    Searching an opponent by name solely in the context of TG would be neat, but could also be a lot of work for something quite limited.

    A Sparring Match type where you could select from people in your coalition (or maybe out of a specific coalition) would be neat.  
    But seeing as the purpose would be to try specific decks against each other I don’t think there should be much in way of rewards.  Maybe only 50 Runes per win to disincentivise cheating.
