I finished this day RT in the morning, but want to test a little. I ended with 15 card deck in play, the pw (Ral) even had 9 of possible 8 spells. 
I think one card decks are possible too. I am not payed for testing... yet. :) 

I send a ticket because this is a major bug and probably the reason how legacy cards end up in standard events.

And no I won't put the method here. I send it to support for a fix. 

So watch out for decks that pull the same card over and over again.

    They definitely fixed that bug before.  I wonder if 3.0 messed up the patch?

    Could you message me the steps?  I'll see if I can verify it before we hit the panic button.

    Hey, I am genuinely curious.  I've never heard of a bug that lets you exceed the deckbuilding limits of a walker.  I want to make Samut completely broken (instead of just kind of broken)

    Confirming I was also able to replicate this, making a deck with 13 cards I was able to play in RT event.  Will report to Customer Service.  Going to experiment again to see if system will also allow one to play a deck less than 10 cards.  If so, will report that to CS as well.

    Can confirm as well.
    It is indeed a very different thing than the legacy exploit, but I really hope it won't take several months to fix

    Thanks for reporting this. I'll go ahead and pass this information to the team so that they can look into this.

    Also reporting that I was able to select and play a 10 card deck in Elspeth that had 9 supports when her support limit is 5.  It did not,  allow me to play decks with incorrect colored card or less than 10 card decks, which is at least some good news.

    Less than 10 card decks would have made things miserable until a patch issued to fix exploit.  Combo decks would run rampant, killing people or locking games in infinite loops on early turns regularly.  Trolls could do things like submit a 1 card Talent of the Telepath decks.  No thank you!
