If I make my opponent aware of this fact will it affect them too and leave us both mana screwed?

If so, all the more reason we need a way to chat with our opponents.

I just checked the source:

if (player.isFirstToBeAwareOfFact(MANA_SCREW)) {
    this.activateManaScrew(player, EXTREME);
} else {
    this.activateProTopDecks(player);
}

Popping in to give an update. You're right! It is annoying! So we've worked towards addressing it. The fix for this is currently going through internal testing and should reach players soon.

Just curious, if it read "create a goblin token with haste that must attack" instead of its current text, would the haste + 'must attack' carry over onto the angel?

No, in that case, neither carry over- however it would probably read something like:

"Create a 1/1 red Goblin creature token with haste and 'this creature must attack each turn if able'". In this case, both haste and the attack requirement are abilities that the goblin has. Legion Warboss just grants [whatever it creates] haste and an attack requirement.

The weird thing I think with LWB that needs to be addresses is his interaction with [[Devine Visitation]]. Token is a 4/4 angel but it still has the mandate to attack it's first round in.

That's exactly what should happen! Divine Visitation only replaces characteristics of the token itself, not any other effects that apply to it.

Feels like I should be able to say, "I'm an above average player, I should be able to get past gold." Then I remember how many people have played this forever and really know their stuff, and I realized I am certainly below average.

Think I'm fine with gold 3, lol.

If it makes you feel any better, I've been playing for 20 years and still hang out in silver :D

Good ear! It is Jo Wyatt.

Doh. I looked into this. Know exactly why it's happening. It won't be fixed in the 0.12.01.00 update, but we'll try to put it in the next one after that.

I posted on a couple similar threads over the weekend, but I'll give a quick update here. We've found a few issues we think will help at least some of the cases and we have some leads on some other areas we need to look into. We've also added some more reporting and logging so we can get a better picture of what's happening.

We understand the frustration of getting disconnected and we are working hard to resolve it.

(Posting this in both major threads about this)

We are still looking into this. It's not happening in a controlled environment, so we are just trying to get a good look at it in the wild. We have some theories and have added some instrumentation to a custom build. If you see WotC_ChrisClay, hope he disconnects. He's playing with the instrumented build because he has experienced a few disconnects over the past couple days.

Thanks for the reports and the feedback. We'll get this sorted out as soon as we can.

P.S. Only we devs know if any unrelated "instrumentation" went into Chris's build...

Heck yah you can! This is one of my favorite pieces (advanced filters were a weekend project I did for fun).

You can use "owned" or "q" to filter on how many you own

Ravnica Allegiance cards you have a playset of:

e:rna q=4

Ravnica Allegiance card you have less than a playset of:

e:rna q<4

Or let's say you wanted to see what's needed to complete your Common/Uncommon playset of Ravnica Allegience:

e:rna q<4 (r:c or r:u)

I'll post more when I get some time. :D

Oh. But I should note. Because I didn't want to bust the existing functionality for a pet project, the text search is

combined with the button filters. So if you want to see things you don't own from a text search, remember to pop in to the Advanced Filters section (the button by the colors that has sliders on it) and make sure "Not Collected" is turned on.

I tried 'number:x', 'num:x' and 'collected:x', but no joy.

I am in a best of three game with my friend through Discord Challenge. We completed game 1 without issue while i am playing simic nexus, which includes 4x Nexus of Fate. During sideboarding, the game will not allow me to submit my deck even if all 4 copies of the card are taken out.

Oof, yeah it should definitely allow you to play with the card in Best of 3 Direct Challenges and Discord Challenges. We will take a look; thank you for the report!

Awesome improvements, can't wait to see the deck builder improvements. Hey u/WotC_ChrisClay the target date for the patch is in three days, but a lot of the verbiage says features will be available "next week"? Are those being turned on server side next week or is that maybe an earlier draft's language?

Ya when writing ahead of time mistakes like that get made:)
