crosses fingers that

a) there’s a new daily event coming, and
b) all the objectives in it aren’t the “cast 3000 werewolves” objectives Webcore are so fond of

3

We really need a new event that hands out a rare from the current set. And the bonus rare from premium packs should be non dupe. It’s been a lot harder completing rares without some event like RP.

4

I can’t confirm or deny what’s in this event.

for now.

5

Planar Chaos is a great event @Magic_PQ_Support_Team No special supports, only 5 matches, 20 gold and a rare pack (actually forgot to check if it has jewels). Thank you.

6

Agreed, looks good ! Let’s try it

AGree, I love the event. Also, no specific objectives. So just build what you like and have fun!

8

@Magic_PQ_Support_Team no sneak peek for next week? Game shutting down due to lack of staff?

9

The Schedule for the second week of August has been posted. Don’t worry, we’re not disapearing :smile:

10

@Magic_PQ_Support_Team

Good afternoon! Please fix it, according to the schedule today, Stellar Pup should be in the store, but it is not in the store right now.
This Comet has actually disappeared from the store, so to speak, not in the rotation list from August 10 to August 16.

Good to see you are still alive. Now please also answer all the other posts directed at you.

12

Thanks for the Stellar Pup

13

Not a fan of only allowing two losses on Planar Chaos. It’s far too easy to get paired against an event opponent with a very high level, that you previously faced with your full card pool, and lose because you’re stuck with the Standard card pool.

14

Agreed. The pairing seems skewed. I’m Level 41,Silver tier and I’m regularly facing opponents with Rakdos and Assimilation Aegis or almost 500 life. If your going to make me fight those kind of opponents, at least give me more opportunities.

15

@Magic_PQ_Support_Team fateful showdown starts today according to this post but we can’t opt in until the 20th?

16

@Skratched Thanks for reporting!
Fixed.
To clarify, some starting teams were skewed, but the image calendar was correct. FS starts Wednesday 20th.

17

Leaving this comment just to let @GregDreher and @Jacob1know that we’re taking notes on everyone’s experience with this event.

There’s not much to say for now, but you all should know this is all being observed and taken into consideration.

18

It would be great also if you update the standard sets list because it still includes the ones that rotated out

19

I’m not sure that @Magic_PQ_Support_Team realizes that there’s been a rotation? That would explain the mock PVP opponents in Planar Chaos using cards from last rotation and no cards at all from the new set.
