Man they're fast, I reported that Vengeful Walloper bug yesterday and it's already fixed.
They probably knew about the bugs since the mini-set release which was last Tuesday, so ~ 5 days to fix bugs, not bad.
The card wasn't changed with the release of the mini-set though. And I haven't found it reported on the bugs forum (checked before I posted). Seems weird coincidence.
And now for the Golden Question, have they even tried to look into the mobile issue of Pixel 6 phones encountering lag, drops, black screens, and other problems like looking at your collection?
I went onto the forums and I see that the string was responded to by Blizz, no other information about it.
Update that was posted on Blizzard forums, of course by community vs Blizz:
I did this and it "works". Given that there is a work around like this, I doubt that Blizz would do anything else unless another update destroys our connection. But at least there is an option.
I also have a Pixel 6, and the game has been nearly unplayable lately, usually crashing or black screen multiple times a match. I saw this potential solution on Reddit. I've just made the change, so I haven't played any to see if it makes a difference yet.
A couple of years ago there was a mobile type bug that went on for a very long time depending on your carrier. VPN was the only solution.
It wasn't a device issue. Rather a carrier problem. Doubt it's your Pixel .
