Bug in battlegrounds - damage done to enemy not persisting

Didn't manage to get a screenshot because of the nature of the bug, but here's what happened:

  • Playing a game as Milhouse
  • Twice in game I play and win against Rafaam
  • Both times my damage total as shown at the end of the round based on star total hits the enemy Rafaam correctly, and their health total goes down.
  • However, the Rafaam did not show the correct lost total in the sidebar, and the second time I fought him he had a health total that would not have been possible if he had indeed taken the damage I inflicted.

This was very tilting, obviously, but would be nice to know if there's anything that can be done (or even just to understand wtf is going on)

Thanks x

    Thanks blizzard guy! :) are you one of the devs primarily working on Battlegrounds besides Conor?

    I'm on the engineering side of things.

    This desync bug was at its worst on Day 1 of Patch 16.2, when there were many reports throughout the day of it happening. You saw it all the time on streams and videos too that day.

    It was mostly hotfixed at some unknown time a day or two later, but still happened from time to time.

    In Patch 16.2.3 last week, it was officially stated that the bug had been fixed. I've still seen one or two reports since then though.

    If you're still experiencing it today, the best place to report would be on the bug forums - https://us.forums.blizzard.com/en/hearthstone/c/bug-report

    Yeah, there's still some leftover ones involving Soul Jugglers and deathrattle minions that I haven't been able to track down. Thought for sure I had it all fixed in 16.2.3, but there's another thing causing it to trigger. I'm still working on it 😁
