Ascension is getting a bit buried in the SW madness despite the 4-set mayhem. Have you guys seen the latest promo card for the physical game? It's pretty insane And don't miss the flavor text

See? In that case they would have FINALLY crossed he line that the Mechana are always dancing around, it seems like such an obvious addition for them.

So after playing a few games with all the sets, I've concluded something.

Games are almost always one-sided. I've lost 110-88, won 108-56 and rarely, rarely, does a game have less than 10 honor in it.

Early game constructs and heroes dictate everything.

I sadly, seem to be the master of close calls. If I win a match at all, even two players, it tends to be some squeaker of 1-5 points.

4-set mayhem does lead to some one-sided games, sometimes because of a lot of the big cards from CotG and sometimes because the center row tends to have a lot of monsters. I've noticed monsters show up a lot more in 4-set games.

I won a few by 1, so I cannot agree with you.
And this with all permutations of cards.

One of the UI changes in the update is that the Nook Hound no longer reveals the card to an opponent. To everyone other than the owner of the card it's shown face down. However, you can just double tap the card to see what it is or you can just pay attention as it goes back to the owner's deck, when it is no longer face down but face up. Hopefully this is something they fix with the PRIME update.

The double tap issue has already been fixed internally and will be included in the next update. If the card is shown face up when animating back to their hand, that's because they chose to discard it. Since you can just look in their discard pile to see which card it is, it's no longer necessary to continue hiding the card.
