With a Mixup in the meta so frequently. Stale metas is the WORST part of card games and this helps so much. I'm very excited.
On the Live Balance side, we're likely going to move to every other month, so a balance patch between each content drop. I've considered and talked to the rest of the design team in the past about whether we should do Balance patches alongside content drops- our general stance is to avoid doing this. However, if players find that this new pattern is too slow for balance we can totally shift to doing more balance changes alongside content drops (probably just for the smaller content drops - not new Region drops).
If you have any thoughts around this, let us know!
Appreciate the positive reply to my criticism. It's this particular one. The previous explanatory woman narrator for the bilgewater release was great for talking through all the mechanics and new champs, which made sense for a lower scale announcement/video.
It really just has to do with how big this announcement is. The content is something the devs have put a lot of time and thought into to create a great and captivating future for the game, and the delivery just wasnt commensurate.
The willingness to reply and ask for feedback is a great approach and very appreciated as an active player.
What about compared to these past performances from Jeff and I? (you don't have to watch them if they're too cringeworthy obv :P)

I do not want to hear these guys making an announcement ever again. I'm sure they are good devs, but they are awful at speaking and it was obviously read from a poorly written script while on zoom. Hearing them and comparing it to even post brode HS announcements made me cringe. This is HUGE news with tons of amazing content that I am excited for. The video editing was even great, but the speaking delivery was so emotionless that it detracted from what could have been a great announcement.
Thanks for the feedback! Was it this particular video, or all of our videos? We had to make some accommodations filming this one from home as we all are still working out-of-office due to COVID.
Valid point, who would you wanna see doing the eye roll?
Find out who in patch 1.4
Definitely still a topic for us. We know there’s a bunch that’s not great and we are committed to making it better!
Please also add toss pile, with cards sorted by cost.
Toss pile? As in how can I view the cards I "tossed"? or are you asking for a graveyard?
u/RiotExis is there a hotfix coming for this? Expedition drafting is extremely painful when it's so laggy and we only get two choices per pick.
One of our teams has got a fix and is working hard to get it out to everyone ASAP! Sorry for the pain and the wait.

Yeah this sounds nightmarish. Getting some info.
Totally agree with you on this one. There’s a couple other features with the hands we also want to add. Things like card counts, better warning for max hand, etc. thanks for the feedback!
Hi folks,
This was due to a timing issue with when the new data for the patch went out and when the offers to support that data were pushed. This timing snafu should be resolved in the next patch.
In the meantime, if you restart your client you should now be able to claim the offer. Please give a holler if that's not the case!
