This game needs faster animations.

I use to play Hearthstone religiously for years and recently came back to play some dungeon runs. Its so damn slow. I spend far far more time waiting than thinking about plays. It actually makes the game unplayable for me.

This is something I'm trying to be increasingly conscious of. The time to Spell Finish (when any queued actions start resolving) on FX has been tracking pretty steadily downwards (I only throw this example out because the one I have the clearest numbers on off the top of my head, but the typical time to Spell Finish for a legendary CustomSummon has dropped about in half since MSG going into the next set), and it's largely because you guys have made me aware that this is taking a toll on how you play. I don't think it'll ever be perfect for anyone, because there are a lot of different playstyles and things that people enjoy about the game to balance, but hopefully it'll be better for everyone, and a lot of that comes down to feedback like this.:)

If there are specific cases (or sets of cases, or if it's something as simple as "there are more FX in the game and the net is bogging it down for me") that have really been making you want bang your head on a desk, too, I'd be curious to know what they were. I'm always happy to have more data points for things I need to be keeping an eye on.^^
