  1. It's a bug, we're aware, and we're working on a fix.
  2. You do not need to contact support - we'll be automatically fixing this for all affected players as soon as possible. We're aiming for tomorrow, but we need to implement/test the fix first.
  3. Happy Wednesday, everybody!

For clarity: The Wednesday Brawl schedule was changed so that it didn't overlap with the upcoming no entry preconstructed deck Workshop events, which begin next week. Wedneday Brawl was not reduced in length -- it's still 24 hours -- but it has shifted both the beginning and the ending 8 hours into the future relative to the previous schedule.

In addition to avoiding the conflict with the Workshop events, this schedule brings Wednesday Brawl in line with our normal event start and entry-lock times, which generally occur at 8am Pacific (1500 UTC or 1600 UTC, depending on daylight saving time).

Hover over the fervents in the stack and it shows where they're targeting. Took way to long to figure that out.

This is correct. When hovering over an ability on the stack, green arrows will illustrate what object(s), if any, put it onto the stack, and blue arrows* will illustrate what object(s), if any, the ability is targeting.

Formerly the client made the 2/1, 2/1, 2/1 case impossible for the player to attain due to how permanents were piled on the battlefield to conserve space. This issue (and other similar cases) has been fixed by separating the Fervent Champions as needed while stepping through the targeting process.

*Some cards, like Casualties of War, can show many targeting arrows of different colors to distinguish how each target will be affected.
