I did too, but I changed it and will bug support about it if I don't get the email since I technically opted in and played the game before rotation.

Anybody else have their daily quest progress stop updating?

Edit: I'm stuck on 18/20 red or green spells casted, not the rewards for daily wins.

It's still about 20 minutes till the update hour and my last daily quest (the one I got this morning) stopped recording progress :argh:

e:fb

e2: I'm mad, not necessarily because I don't get four quests today (they didn't need to give three new quests at all) but because it randomly fucks me but presumably not others. I was at 18/20. If I'd managed to cast two more green spells before their arbitrary lockout, I'd have an extra 500 gold.

RIP to the half-pack I thought I could grind out before the update.

I just know it would have contained the half-card that would have turned me into a good player.

I have 1500 gold sitting on my screen needing me to cast two creatures and two green/black spells, respectively. It's ok, I'll live.

I suspect if you had a game where you cast one relevant spell you'd get to 19/20 and you aren't locked out at an arbitrary time (this issue happened to me hours ago) but nobody can finish their quest that started today and it'll just roll over to be finished after rotation.

Looks like my simic flash deck is mostly intact after rotation. Essence Capture is more color intensive than essence scatter so I may look at counters to put in, and then replace the Merfolk Trickster with Brazen Borrower. Not quite a 1:1 exchange but borrower seems good to flash in and beat down with

e; and wildborn preserver holy moly

I mean, I played more games afterwards and it still didn't budge. I admit I didn't try the galaxy brain approach of casting exactly one spell and then conceding, though. :v:

Sorry to hear it happened to others too.

Happy rotation day, I wonder how long I'll play around cards that have rotated out of standard. "Hmmm could face a Settle here, better swing light"

Why did everyone stop playing Settle the Wreckage long before IXA rotated? It' a good card. Teferi?

also going wide with creatures became much more successful, and a lot of those decks could punish you for giving them a bunch of extra lands (sup scapeshift)

Now that I think about it, I’ve always been opted out but I received the last code they emailed which I think was the end of closed beta. Still, I opted in for the upcoming email.

It was already falling out of jeskai control but the gruul hexproof guy hated it out fully (also the hexproof angel) and kayas wrath was much better and all the jeskai turned to esper. Lil teferi had nothing to do with it, it was long gone by then.

Every sealed draft I do always starts the same. 6 rares, all poo poo, all perfectly spread out across 5 colors. It wouldn't hurt so bad if this loving draft type wasn't made to eat gems.

It's become a tradition of mine, doing mock sealed pools on Draftsim and thinking, "Boy I would love to open these packs" over and over.

Then running it live and opening multiples of the 8-mana red enchantment of the set.

There is no way that there aren't huge issues today. I learned a long time ago with WoW: don't plan on playing a whole bunch (and certainly don't take the day off from work) on major patch day.

All the big red enchantments, all the irrationally complicated blue enchantments that always rely on artifacts, and then the one good rare has no good cards behind it in the same color.

Is draft open yet for Eldraine, either traditional or ranked? Want to spend my gold/gems on drafts because I haven't played competitive limited in forever.
