Ran into a bug on my second game. Was using the Mage in practice VS the Warlock. We were on the 6th round and he had used all of his diamonds except one. Well then I sat there staring at the screen for about 5 minutes and nothing happened. He wouldn't end his turn. I even clicked on the options menu and selected concede and nothing happened. Ended up just exiting the app altogether.
You may have just got disconnected. They do have a reconnect feature. If it happens again try closing the app and logging back in, it may reconnect you to your game. It also works from iPad to PC and vice versa, if you disconnect on one you can reconnect on the other.
Well I had another unsuccessful run in the arena again (although sadly it's my best record so far at 2-3). I chose mage over warrior (or maybe it was rogue I forget) and warlock, didn't get any polymorphs and I think just one fireball. First match got steamrolled, second match was against a lock, I had him down early but slowly he built up an army of demons and he bested me with only 1 health left I went on to win 2 more then got completely crushed again. Hopefully I can win enough sometime (at least 7) to get my gold back + some packs/goodies. Still no legendaries tho (must resist urge to buy packs)
So, i haven't read through the 43 extant pages of comments, but i've played a few unranked games online and I keep running into people who take forever to loo at their cards and figure out what to do. The last match, the opponent literally triggered the turn timer every other time he went. Is this just cause i haven't played in the ranked matches? I also played a game against someone that was either a complete dick or didnt understand minions can attack the hero directly, cause he had like 6 minions out, and every time he could end the game and not take forever to decided what to do, he'd wait, kill the minion i'd summon, and end the turn. I'm not gonna lie, i played a buncha AI matches with my deck to get the synergy down and learn the cards, and I'm a decent magic player so i understand what it means to have to learn a new CCG. I also consider myself a patient and forgiving human being, but the last 20 minutes of playing this were frustrating. Do these kinds of problems continue in the ranked matches?
From what I've seen in ranked and unranked players usually don't take the entire 90 seconds (I think that's what it is), although there's a minority that do for whatever reason. I will sometimes wait until 10-15 secs are left just to make sure I've explored all my options. If you are in a ranked match or Arena you may see this more than in unranked I guess if the match is coming down to the wire. Also if you are absolutely sure you are going to die after your turn/before your opponent's turn just concede the match (bottom right settings button to find it). Then you don't have to go through the nonsense you described above.
I totally considered conceding, but I've played enough magic games where i pulled a fog card (no damage dealt to anything for one turn) when it looked like i was gonna lose on the next turn, but ended up winning cause of it. I generally don't like to concede unless i have like 4 health left cause i feel like it cheats the other player out of the fun of winning fair and square. I also 100% agree that you should take the extra 10 - 15 secs to double check before you end turn, but when you have one or two mana lmao, your options are kinda limited. The turn limit timer should happen imo before the 4th turn imo, cause there's not much to do before then, strategy wise. I wish ther was a way to give player feedback and drop their matchmaking probability for turn timer issues specifically. Like, if the person triggers it within x parameters y number of times, it should prompt some kind of downvote option after the match. But only if the math in my equation happens, cause otherwise people would be dicks, cause its the internet. I remember back you got punched in mouth if you pulled shit like that with the person you were playing with, in real life lol. I also did not know where the button was lmao, cause i totally would have. I'm glad to hear my experience was the exception to the rule. The kid had a 14/28 creature out in addition to four other 5/5 ones, i feel like he/she was either being a dick or was very young, cause like, clearly they understood the rules well enough to use the card synergy in a priest deck correctly, but damn man...Point being, you're right, shoulda conceded. Thanks for the help.
How come I seem to be the only one with constant crashes on my iPad mini retina? I can play through the tutorial but after that it crashes right on startup or when I try to log in. I already tried restarting my device and re-installing the game. Still have 4gb free space. Guess I have to wait for an update.
It happened to me yesterday for the first time, I lost two games because of this the app got me out the game while playing a minion and got disconnection, I had to reconnect 3-4 times in a rows. I decided to close my iPad completly after this I came back to the game and everything was correct. So sad it happened to me fortunately I wasn't in arena or ranked mode.
Wow ! I've just opened my free "iPack" and it contains : - 1 Legend - 2 Epics - 1 Rare - 1 Common Is it the same for everybody ?? Never had this much luck before
No, it's not. I've been playing this game for months (probably around 500 matches) and I've literally gotten 2 legendaries (both of which are considered extremely crappy on top of that, I've since destroyed them to get some good epics). Well, good thing I don't care about constructed that much and am basically a full on Arena player.
It's totally different for everyone. Blizzard made it that way just like they do for rare drops in WoW (maybe that's why WoW had me hooked and this does too). I liken it to when I used to collect baseball cards, opening a pack might get you that great rookie card or may get you crap cards. I've opened about 15 packs with no legendaries, 3 gold cards and few epics and some rares. I think it's guaranteed to have at least 1 rare or better card in every pack.
They said it will be coming out on the "heels of the ipad relase", then I saw them say it's coming out during summer :/
I've had an amazing pack like that one time. Ironically it was after I did absolutely terrible in the arena.
I'm playing on a iPad 2. I'm not having any problems and everything seems to be running really good. I have a 32GB with a lot of space left. I also play on my Mac and the iOS version is a little slower but still playable. I restarted my iPad 2 after downloading and make sure I have no apps running in the background. Blizzard recommended restarting after downloading especially the old iPads.
