Answer: We’re aware of this concern and our GD team is studying some options to better solve this issue. Our main approach to this matter in some sets is the insertion of key cards with the Leader ability, but standardizing most of the game’s tokens is definitely something included in our plans.
Answer: With the exception of a few original Planeswalkers in MagicPQ, like Fblthp, Daxos, Kalemne, or The Eldrazi Desolation, we’re restricted to follow the original Planeswalker’s colors of their paper version. So, we can’t create versions of Tamiyo that is Red or Black, for example, unless she is printed with one of these colors.
However, our creative team has plans to make every single Planeswalker ever-printed to be playable in MagicPQ. Well, they kind of want to give a Spark to a bunch of other characters as well… Such as Colfenor, Zedruu, Phelddagrif, Norin, Stangg, the Sliver Queen, Acornelia, the Myr Battlesphere, Lin Sivvi, some dogs, a few squids, and so on.
20. In the card collection UI, may we have an option to see only unowned cards? and an option to select standard only?
Answer: We will take your feedback into account and will look into optimizing the Card Filter, together with the observations from Question #5.
21. I just learned this page exists. Why hasn’t it been updated with recent sets?
Answer: After the release of War of the Sparks (WAR) the Card Galleries have been moved to the Facebook page of Magic: Puzzle Quest. Access the page here.
22. What is the programmed logic behind the Challenge of the Court charges? I recently played this event to a perfect score and finished 5 points behind 1st place to someone who apparently simply had more charges than I did. I thought I had done everything right to maximize my charges, including winning all four of my 1st matches on each node, playing them all within a handful of hours of joining, and joining fairly early in the event (started in ~60th). Even that did not prove to be enough to secure 1st place with a perfect score. Related to this question: Can this system be improved?
Answer: Thank you for the detailed feedback. Please could you send your UID to the support and explain in detail what happened so that they can take a further look?
23. Have you considered a price cut for legacy packs? It can be really hard for new players to get up to speed on older cards to build up a legacy collection, and that problem will only get worse in a few months when 4 more sets drop into the legacy pool. At some point it will become nearly impossible for a new player to be competitive in legacy due to the card total in that grouping. If I could get SOI or IXL packs for half (or less) of what they are currently for a five-pack, I'd certainly take my chances on a few packs during a relevant event. The price is already cut on crafting orbs - lets just spread the discount love around! Maybe pair this with some set restrictions for legacy events to spice it up, but also encourage people to get some cards for those sets? I would be even more inclined to spend on old packs if I had to play an event limited to just the old set. Keep up the good work!
Answer: Thank you very much for the feedback. Sorry, we can’t say much here yet. But the set restriction idea for Legacy events might be interesting for the future, and this could be something our team might look into.
24. Any plans to speed up gameplay further, either for all players, or just expert players, or just those players who opt to turn off slow FX in their options?
Answer: Thank you for the feedback. Our answer here is similar to Question #14 therefore we have more or less the same answer and we will look into optimizing the Game Experience in terms of FX.
25. Are you planning on making Vanguard cards craftable? WAR vanguards would soon become Legacy cards and I don't see why we shouldn't be able to craft them given the limited use for Legacy cards. Also, those are the only ones that are not non duplicate guaranteed.
Answer: There are no plans yet for the Vanguard Cards to enter Booster Crafting.
26. Why do some supports have no subtype? We have lands, enchantments, artifacts, vanguards... but some (like Nissa's Pilgrimage, or Hixus, some supports created by a Planeswalker) have no subtype! It kinda makes no sense?! Especially as almost every support destruction card now printed targets specific support subtypes. It makes these supports super hard to get rid of, and creates a bottleneck in design around Demolish which blows up everything on the cheap.
Answer: We are updating most of those cards that are typeless with the release of ZNR.
Observation: We know that some of our answers in regards to questions about new features and questions and feedback related to your ideas seem repetitive. It has to do more with the fact that we often can't say much about upcoming features nor give an estimate on when these ideas could potentially come to the game.

Oktagon_Support said: UPDATE12. Are the devs thinking of cleaning up the UI? Like being able to hide unwanted PW's, or removing the exclusive tag on a card that is owned (once you own it, the exclusive serves no purpose)Answer: Thank you for your feedback regarding the Exclusive Cards. We will take it into account. Would you mind giving a little bit more details when you say unwanted Planeswalkers, what do you mean by that?Thank you for all the support,Marcela.

I noticed that a while ago and it drives me completely nuts everytime I search for stuff that is asked frequently.
