Have you folks considered actually going for a flatter payout distribution on one of the events? It'd be nice to have something that mirrored the reliable, low-ceiling collection building of quick drafts.

Well, it's difficult to compete with drafting since there isn't a card pool to add to your collection - but the new constructed event model tries to offer at least a better path than we had before. We did consider some flatter models, but distributing prizes lower means fewer players win their entry fee back. It's always a question of competing desires.

This is an actual error in the distribution - you'll also see that the 2-win reward in that event is 100 gems higher. We'll correct it.

Speaking of this weekend's Play-In, could you clarify when it will happen? Earlier, it was announced as "September 9, 6 a.m.–September 10, 6 a.m." But in today's announcement article, it was "September 10, 6 a.m. PT–September 11, 9 a.m. PT".

It's the dates from today's post, starting on the 10th. The regular best-of-one Play-Ins are always seven days before the QW itself. Sorry about the error in the previous post.

Bonus Play-In

September 24, 6 a.m. PT–September 26, 6 a.m. PT

Stay tuned for more details as we approach the date of the event!

This is a little annoying. I've got 20 Play-In Points to spend, I was going to try the Qualifier this Friday, but now I don't know if I should wait for the mystery box instead.

Especially since it is running after this month's Qualifier Weekend and during the Arena Championship which is just...what?

To clarify, the Bonus event will feed the Qualifier Weekend in October (since the September event will have already happened). You can play this weekend's Play-In with no chance of overlap or conflict.

Glad to be useful, I'm not mad for it. Just speechless couse I didn't think something like that could happen

It definitely shouldn't happen. This bug looks to be specific to piles not working properly on 4:3 devices (like tablets).

Already submitted a ticket, I'm waiting for an answer

I didn't know thanks, just panicked on the moment and grabbed the phone

Thanks for the report; we're actively investigating. Also, the phone video lets us see where you're tapping, which is useful.

What about Jumpstart tokens?

There was an article that inappropriately said there would be jumpstart tokens. That was an error, and it has been corrected

What does the green glow mean on some of the mastery pass levels?

Green glow means they’re part of the Renewal Rewards, special bonuses we add at rotation to help existing players get into the new environment

Did you notice he clicked "auto-pay"? That's the confirmation I'm talking about. You won't drag a spell out from your hand and suddenly go to 0 life from paying mana abilities. #wotc_staff

Time to turn off the auto tapper

Autotap won't automatically pay life for mana ability costs; if it detects a life cost it will prompt you to confirm. #wotc_staff
