    And even more specifically, any current Known Issues official forum thread that we tend to link to in any of our "Issues & Fixes" articles, as that's where the developers track the posts the most. Sharing the bugs you find in the comments under those respective articles does also help everyone here take notice. 

    A lot of designers are also active on Twitter and do respond to various bug reports over there, even if it's not the designated source (so best don't expect anything, but it might be heard).

    Yep, unfortunately it's become a widespread known issue. As you can probably see now here.

    I was already seeing an occasional Pool 3 card even when at low levels of CL 400+, and it actually hasn't been that scary at 500 CL and above ever since. Most opponents I face hardly seem to have many Series 3 cards at their disposal, either.

    Not everyone, no. You are among the chosen ones. I hear there's been some interesting questions asked.

    Oh yes, I fell for it too once.

    From the 24.6 Patch Notes:

    [Quests] Some Daily and Weekly Quests will now include an arrow at the bottom. Press this arrow to be taken directly to the part of the client where that Quest can be completed.

    Off-topic, the unfortunate thing for me is that I am no longer receiving daily nor weekly quests since this patch, but that is a totally different issue.

    Uhh, how is that even possible, they've managed to break something in very specific cases? I haven't seen it reported yet.

    Interesting insights indeed, thanks for letting us know! So many videos and interviews going out and about, not easy to keep up with everything.

    Quote From sto650

    I'm much further along than most anyone who would be reading this, so here is a list of the best cards that most new players should have before too long. These are just the best early cards in terms of raw power level and utility:

    • Nightcrawler
    • Angela
    • Scarlet Witch
    • Cable
    • Bishop
    • Namor
    • Iron Man

    Whatever else you are doing with your deck, you should have several of these cards in it, if you are a new player. And some of these cards are even still used when you get to Pool 3 decks.

    I keep coming back to your posts and decks now that it's no longer such a strange new land (appreciate sharing ahead of time with us!). Although people's fondness for Angela or Cable surprises me to some extent. Iron Man occasionally feels like a 'win more' type of card. But then once the puzzle pieces actually align...

    Now that sounds busted. Any time I hear something about Onslaught, I hear "nerf candidate".

    As for uploading images, just about any service that allows you to do that while providing you with a link to share (for example, Imgur being the most popular).

    You could say that - if you have Gmail set up, then you basically have a Google Account (that you should see in the top right corner if you use Google as your search engine). It just happens to provide some other functions as well. 

    It's also possible to create a Google Account with a different (non-google e-mail), for what it's worth.

    There is a Steam customer review that seems to go into more detail on this, currently ranked as the 3rd most helpful on the store page. But yes, that's basically it: you would need to link your Google account *after* playing through the tutorial (the way it's been set up, it sounds like it might be safest to play through the tutorial separately on each device, and only then attempt to link to the main Google account afterwards).

    You should've been given an in-game prompt to do so by that point (otherwise it can be found in the settings, the gear icon in the top left corner), and then your collection shoud be shared across all devices.

    No reason why there shouldn't be, following the tradition. It's actually been more or less already confirmed, but we indeed won't know the exact details (which sets etc.) until the patch notes drop.

    That's definitely the first time I hear of such a strange interaction, although the explanations above make some sense (in the weird "Hearthstone coding" sort of way). Still, could be worth checking with devs whether it's actually intended. Unless one of them has already covered this scenario back when these cards were being released, and I missed it.

    It's always been that way? But you had me question this for a moment, so I went to consult my article on the original PvP Season 1. As you can see there with the image included: first ranked chest being 25 coins for 3 Mercs.

    We always aim to make a new card back article within the first days of a month (plus what else to expect), so that gets its time in the spotlight. And we document them ahead of time here (in the navigation menu at the top of the page, you can see "Card Backs" both under "Cards" and "Guides"). Looking at the rest down the line could be a worthy consideration, even though it might not always be simple to tell with the achievements. 

    You can also always filter for new skins by the patch here ("Hero Skins" under the "Cards" on the navigation menu), but it's probably not common knowledge.

    They may not respond or just give you a generic answer, since it's officially listed in the Known Issues now.

    My Phoenix packs timers went like this: 

    EU - 68 packs; Legend - (8,27,46).

    Ame - 67 packs; Legend - (40,49).

    But I also recall somebody else on the team (Avalon?) reporting at one point that guaranteed pity timer Legendary wasn't happening as expected. I don't recall any clear-cut statements from devs on the subject, really.

    Hmm. Sounds like one of the more obscure interactions they might not've tested for. From what you describe it either shouldn't trigger the Secret if the countered thing was the only card played in that turn, or give you the countered thing if Plagarize goes off.
