Additional Notes:
1. Auction House Changes from Beta:
- You’re now given a message if you attempt to search without any parameters.
- Your last search will be saved while in the Auction House.
- Pro cards now have two different crowns. Gold Crowns indicate that the Pro was created properly with both single cards max leveled before combining them. The silver/white crown is an improperly Pro’ed card.
- Pro cards now have a special border in the search list so you can ID them easier when next to single cards in a search.
- There are now different minimums on Bids and on Buy It Now prices when you set a card for sale.
- Minimums for bids for most rarities were lowered.
- When bidding on a card the minimum amount a person can raise the bid is now dependent on the card rarity and whether it is Pro or not. This means auctions will go up meaningfully when someone outbids someone else on a card.
- Single cards and Pros of the same rarity have different minimums.
- You can now search for themed cards (Throwback Thursday, Rookie Stars, etc.).
- The number of pages in a Search Result is now displayed and what page you’re currently on.
- Looking at a card in a search does not reset your entire search to the beginning so you will not lose your place.
- Search Filters work properly so you don’t have to put in a Bid amount to see results listed by lowest Bid.
- Searching by stats has been removed.
- You can now search by “Is Pro” to find just Pro cards.
- Rookie Stars are now auctionable.
- You can now search by a player name more easily.
- Players with cards that are not auctionable will no longer appear in the player name list.
- Enhancement searches now only include valid rarities.
- Fully leveled cards appear with a properly filled bar in the search results

- Game Nights are required to play a game in RttC. You start with 5 free Game Nights, and they regenerate once every 15 minutes. You can purchase additional Game Nights with Credits if you don’t want to wait.
- You choose from 3 different decks to play against for each boss that is Easy (+2), Medium (+5), or Hard (+7). Like in Quick Games, the strength of the deck is indicated by the ring next to the possible points. If you win you earn the points. If you lose you win +1 point.
- Hot Streaks can be played to double the possible points you earn when you win a game. Hot Streaks drop from the draft board or you can purchase them. Leftover Hot Streaks do not carry over from one event to the next.
