    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

    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.

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

    for now.

    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.

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

    @Magic:PQ Support Team no sneak peek for next week? Game shutting down due to lack of staff?

    @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.

    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.

    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.
