Deckbuilder down?

Hey, it's time for theorycrafting with the new set! and Deckbuilder (Hearthstone) doesn't seem to be working. Instead of normal collectible cards, it's showing hero powers and hero portraits from PvE content.

  • The first pages only show the uncollectible PvE content, but unfortunately, all of the collectible cards seem to be doubled.

  • yeah i searched up Lucentbark and it showed three of them, two of the same card and the dormant version

  • Hey all,

    Sorry for the deckbuilder trouble. I still honestly have no idea what happened.

    I had to crash shortly after we were done with reveal related stuff on the site because I've been super sleep deprived.

    At 4 PM Eastern, I was pinged that there were problems on the site, at the same time this thread was created.

    At 6 PM Eastern, I woke up.

    At 8:22 PM Eastern, a fix was deployed to our live site and our cache server was kicked, fixing the deckbuilder.

    I still do not have an understanding of what changed to cause this problem. The deckbuilder was fine after all the new cards were added into the site and code for the API that powers the deckbuilder has been stable for weeks. Due to the stability of it, the API was not the first thing I looked at but apparently, it should have been because I noticed a bug.

    I believe this bug gave way for a cache-based race condition within the API if and would only happen if we had a large surge in traffic on the deckbuilder. I have not yet created a proper test case to confirm this is the case, but I'm at least confident this won't happen again.

  • Nice, thanks
