BG sidebar bug?

I just had a game where Dancin' Deryl had a Hydra. Normally, this wouldn't be surprising. However, I positioned around the fact that the sidebar showed him at tier 3 and only had 1 triple. I figured even if he tripled into a Hydra, it wouldn't be big. I was wrong. I checked and it said the Hydra has dance buffs! It didn't have taunt. I was too shocked and fumbled...missing my chance to screenshot on my phone. Unfortunately, we tied and I couldn't see his tier that way to confirm one way or another.

My minions are also swapping around EVEN MORE now on mobile. Freeze and cycle minions have been sluggish as well... Resulting in several missed freezes. Another time, the sidebar said 3 beasts but when the fight actually happened, he had 1 beast and had 3 Mechs and the sidebar then changed to reflect that.

Aside from all this though, the sidebar showing the wrong tier is pretty significant. At least the animations are a bit faster...

Has anyone else had similar bugs?

    The tribe counter thing is intended. It shows a snapshot of what your opponent had at the start of the last combat.

    Do you recall if you were on mobile or pc? This is the first time i had this issue and i was on mobile. Either way, this is pretty significant... >.>

    Just checked into it, I knew there was an issue that could happen where it showed an empty banner on tier 1 if you moused over right at the start of the game. Didn't realize the root issue could cause this, sorry about that. Thankfully I've figured out what's going on (a timing issue where dirty data is getting stored before it's updated). Hopefully can get it into next Battlegrounds update. For now, just try not to mouse over somebody immediately after they tech up.😭
