Then they would go into a quick game play that then draft all 200 picks then go back to RTTC and rinse and repeat.
    The max draft per game in RTTC is 8, so still I can't figure out how you can manage to accumulate 50, unless you got disconnected in the network. Is this only happening during RTTC? Thanks.

      You force close the app. And no it happen at anytime. For instance on Apple what I would do is press the center button twice to bring up all my apps and then swipe up on the app then it would close the app completely and bring me to the home screen. And you do it after every game. Also people during RC use more than 1 device and this will close the game on one device while you play on the second device. You would finish game 1 on your phone. And then not make picks and then go play game time on your tablet. And then phone right after that. And rinse and repeat. Until you reach the end of the event.

        Didn't read thru all the comments so I don't know if this has been asked. Are you guys adjusting the RttC tier drafting so it drafts from your RttC tier and not your QG tier? If you are, removing this feature is punishing us. Why make us draft a whole tier below, that doesn't seem fair.

          Yes they fixed that. They are saying that it helps because you can get dupes which are better than the single in the next tier, which is true.

            It's still 50 people...everyone is acting like it is 10 all of a sudden I usually got it to 45-50 and drafted anyway, hoping to get that early reset I heard about so many times.

            No problem here, keep the news coming that doesn't make the game harder...

              So they're saying, drafting a Leg dupe is better than drafting a Star for someone who is pursuing PO tier? No disrespect to CD, but that's the dumbest thing I've ever heard.

                Woohoo I can't wait to draft 180 boards to get a Leg card that has a 1/(60+)% chance of being a dupe so that I can marginally make my 25 card deck better and then grind out another 180 boards to have another chance at it!

                  I can only see one reason for CD to change this and that's maybe that, the longer you stay on the board menu, the higher your chance of getting a card of your tier?

                  Other than that, this seems unnecessary as it just changes 200 picks to 50, less fun but w/e.

                    Hi I'm new to this page. I'm just wondering why does this make a difference. What's the big deal between a 50 pick limit and 200 pick limit.

                      Welcome man, the main difference to me at least is that it is more fun to pick more at a time. The main worry for others is that they don't want to hit their reset on a lower tier.

                        Sorry - but if I would say what I think about this statement I would be banned for life.
                        If you draft in the higher tier you do have the chance to get a dupe and a card that improves your deck long term.

                        But CD is saying that drafting one Leg is better than drafting one Star + maybe one or even more Legs before your Star Reset :P

                        If you have to play 2000 games before you get your Reset, the last thing you want is a reset from a lower tier.

                        If it would be 50 Boards, then maybe this statement would be valid. But not with maximum resets between 260 and 360 Boards (multiply them by 7 and you have your amount of games you have to play)

                          First off, resets are mythical. Do you really think the game is tracking every users board resets? That's an unnecessary strain in their servers.

                          Resets are just percentage. If the reset is 200 boards, then that only means it has 0.5% chance to drop per board reset. If you're in star tier in quick games then drop to leg++ and drafted a leg, do you really think your chances of drafting a star when you get back to star QG decreases? No, it will still be the same. That's why there are people drafting their "resets" just after 10 boards while others have it after 200+. Its all just percentages.

                            Why should it be mythical? It is confirmed that there is a maximum board reset number.

                            And this means they need to keep track of it - and this counter goes up or resets after you draft a card which equals your tier.

                            Resetting the counter in a lower tier is killing progress.
                            Because if not, it could happen that you draft never a Star card. Because the percentage is always 0.5% no matter how often you reset the board before. It stays 0.5%.

                            The maximum ensure that you will get a 100% reset after a certain amount of boards.

                              It is about both, you have a certain % chance to draft a board clearing card up to the tier you're at, which will then again reset the counter. But as someone said before, if it was only these percentages without any kind of method to make sure you get a draft of your tier, you could face waiting for the card forever.

                              And about the extra strain on servers, cmon man. Adding 1 integer variable to your account while the game is already tracking your cards, the training level on those cards, what enchantments you've put on them and so forth.
