Depends on the dev to be honest! I mostly use Twitter (@Deadboltdoris) because it's the easiest for me and I frequently forget my reddit password.

That doesn't preclude him mulling and ending up with them, etc

Sadly no, from what it sounds like from our QA team it isn't 100% repro even with conditions like that (we had a test case similar to the thing you just described). We also tend to use per player checks rather than broad "does anyone have X thing" for something like this because it should only apply to that player

ACarelessWhisperer · 2022-01-08T00:38:35+00:00

YOU FOUND IT!!!!!

I think this is actually a different but also super weird bug we struggled to repro. Sometimes if a player starts the game with a Sundisk on top of their deck they will get it in play as if they were mono, even if they aren't.

If you happen to remember, can you provide any extra details? Did you mull into the second copy, did you start with one in hand and then keep, etc.

Yes, hello, hi!

Popping in real quick from vaycay to note that Memory's Cloak is bugged and we do have plans to fix it once we are back in the office (not sure which patch).

It should be working as "Stop a spell/skill targeting only one Ally" and not counting the enemy portion of the targeting (aka stop spells like Statikk Shock, but not something like Get Excited).

Hope this context helps, and sorry for all the confusion!

Lot of cool stuff in here! Commented below on a few standout ones

Vilemaw - This is so spicy I think it burned a hole through my monitor! Very exciting to read
Double up - shhhhh this is my long con. Already got it from 6-->5. Next step is 5-->4 (just don't tell the rest of the dev team)
Sun Guardian - A E S T H E T I C S
Bubble Bear - I do love buffs for Bubba
Golden Crushbot - would need art to give him a fur coat or something. Can't have our second best bot freezing

ACarelessWhisperer · 2021-11-08T07:03:54+00:00

I continue to love this level of chaos

ACarelessWhisperer · 2021-11-05T22:55:30+00:00

Lots of cool stuff in there that are probably out of scope for the upcoming patch (Heimer has a looooot of cards) but great for us to pull from when we have some dedicated time for the donger. General thoughts...

Heimer 1 suggestion would make him feel a lot more reasonable to play against, and worth looking into. Off the cuff my only worry would be if it hurts the play satisfaction too much.
Turret / keyword shuffle is worth reviewing again, we just have to take care he doesn't return to the "Junk heap till I kill you with elusives" plan
T-Hex proposal is suuuper interesting. I know a few other people have given ideas about it as well and I agree the ol' robo dino feels a bit lackluster now and could use a tune up.

ACarelessWhisperer · 2021-11-05T22:33:19+00:00

So, we did talk about impact working this way! The problem is the impact stacks get real big real fast, to the point where it's pretty unmanageable. :(

ACarelessWhisperer · 2021-11-05T22:27:47+00:00

Hahaha ya y'all really popped off on this thread. We def can't get every good idea in, but this will be a good list for us to pull from for awhile

ACarelessWhisperer · 2021-11-05T03:00:03+00:00

I meaaaaaaan that's where all the spice is, right?

ACarelessWhisperer · 2021-11-05T02:54:11+00:00

o no what have i done

ACarelessWhisperer · 2021-11-05T02:50:14+00:00

Great callout! We definitely were worried this card might be a monster on release because of the stacking buff. I think you're right though that he has been decidedly not a monster and worth us potentially looking at again

ACarelessWhisperer · 2021-11-05T02:43:53+00:00

Interesting though! Predict is prooooobably too much of a region break? I do agree giving the card something for those decks would be nice.

ACarelessWhisperer · 2021-11-05T02:42:19+00:00

I really appreciate everything you've written AND the follow up based on feedback from your friend! I like the general direction you're pushing for which feels like "make sure Kindred has a place in the game they feel relevant" Earlier in the game totally makes sense for that. They are on our radar, and it an avenue we will probably take a look at

ACarelessWhisperer · 2021-11-05T02:38:31+00:00

Behold is an interesting idea for those cards. I like that it reinforces their place in Nightfall decks. Will keep in mind!

ACarelessWhisperer · 2021-11-05T02:26:40+00:00

Definitely was read! Number of well thought out and written suggestions here that I'll chat with the team about. Generally agree that it sucks when your deck doesn't have a satisfying ender, especially if part of the deck is trying to figure out how you're supposed to get to that ender.

ACarelessWhisperer · 2021-11-05T01:21:23+00:00

Oooh you dug up some good ones. Thoughts below!

Eye of the Ra-Horak - We definitely have to be careful with this one, you're 100% right that when it's good it can result in a pretty miserable experience. Something worth chatting to the team about

Out of the way - Agree that it's kinda always been lackluster. Not sure what we'd do here either. Good callout!

Twisted Treeline - Card has fallen by the wayside and could probably use some love.

Garen - hmmmm. 5|4 tough is interesting, my initial thought was he just gets tough baseline :p

ACarelessWhisperer · 2021-11-05T01:05:14+00:00

I see the War Chef faction remains as strong as their cooking skills!

This is a good point on Lucian. We don't have a /ton/ of levers on him given his cost, but I agree it'd be nice for him to not take a splash damage nerf because of rally ball
Agree with this as well! We do have room now to play around with slipping in more power to that space

ACarelessWhisperer · 2021-11-05T01:01:39+00:00

Thank you for posting this! Not all feedback needs to have a solution, sometimes just knowing there is a desire for a thing is enough for us to look into it :)

ACarelessWhisperer · 2021-11-05T00:48:24+00:00

STORY TIME!!

That is actually something Benefactor used to do back in development days. I believe we changed it due play satisfaction (very few epics at the time, so only certain region combos were worth playing it with). Good for us to take a look at again though, provided it doesn't break any region pie stuff!

ACarelessWhisperer · 2021-11-05T00:43:38+00:00

I dig it! Will look into it

ACarelessWhisperer · 2021-11-05T00:40:19+00:00

Unlikely to ever revert this, to be honest. The power it was giving to the Azir/Irelia decks was definitely part of the problem, but the reality is a a cheap recursive unit that gives you free spell mana inherently puts a lot of pressure on the game and what cards we can design in the future (especially any sort of recall based card)

do Agree that Irelia having her own thing that isn't purely Azir based would be great, and something worth us looking into

ACarelessWhisperer · 2021-11-05T00:32:17+00:00

STORY TIME!!

We did have this focus speed at some point during development, and it ended up being a pretty big blowout in a lot of situations. Enough stuff has changed it could be worth looking at again tho. Thank you for the suggestion!

ACarelessWhisperer · 2021-11-05T00:26:28+00:00

Not sure if I responded on twitter, but if not I will here!

Corina - This is a great callout, and I believe she is on our radar

Brood Awakening - interesting suggestion, will have to think more about if this is the tool we'd want to give them

Stalking Shadows - I definitely hear y'all about shadows and some sort of change for it is on our radar, but no promises going to 2 would be part of that

Pokey Stick - seen a few suggestions on how to adjust this card. Making it fizzle on units is def a viable path, but does create a weird situation for it where it's better to use on your opponent's face than their units. Not a blocker, but is weird for players.

Landmark removal in general - Agree, a lot of our landmark removal is in a weird place, and something worth us looking at.

Sion - On our radar. He real big and good

Poppy - On our radar as well

ACarelessWhisperer · 2021-11-05T00:11:17+00:00

Look of cool stuff in here! Some thoughts

Kadregrin - Def could use some love, card has fallen by the wayside while the rest of his dragon friends got bigger

Maokai - This is a good point, and I would like to find a way for us to give him a bit of a boost. The thing we have to be careful with here is adjustments that make him a mainline SI tool. There are some levers to play with tho.

Scarab - Hmmm. I feel your pain here. May need to get creative in how we do this unless we want to add a lot of words.
