Known Bugs (FIXED = fixed for the next version, v1.731)

• Banish
• Banish can target allies behind mocking armor. Bounty Hunter
• Bounty Hunter not getting resource acceleration in various situations (Breastplate of Life and Sac Lamb) Consuming Fear
• FIXED Consuming Fear still works even when A Legend Rises is attached or Superfocus is in play. Celestial Armor
• FIXED Celestial Armor's ability prevents Banebow's ability from doing damage. Darkwood Wraith
• Darkwood Wraith could bounce back Jade of the Forest after she had used her ability. Divine Connection
• Divine Connection puts attachments to top of deck rather than shuffling them in when destroyed. Details here. Fan of Blades
• If you equip Anklebreaker after using Fan of Blades for only 1-3 attacks, your hero can attack again with Anklebreaker. Jericho Spellbane
• Jericho is removing exhaustion when he also removes disable such as from a poison arrow. Kelvin's Charm
• The wording for Kelvin's Charm is not consistent with what is in the card list. The text on the card does not include the "in combat" qualification. If it's not meant to have that, then there is a bug where using Wrath of Summer's ability doesn't freeze the ally. Layarian Diplomat
• FIXED Layarian Diplomat did not disable the passive ability of a spark gaining the +1 attack/hp when another spark was played. Lost in the Woods
• When you attach Lost in the Woods to Wulven Predator, the disable part is removed at the start of the turn instead on the end. Madelain's Scepter
• FIXED Using Madelain's Scepter's ability will trigger Io Void Leviathan. Morbid Acolyte
• FIXED Morbid Acolyte cannot remove Kairos Doombringer's ability.
• CARDFIX Morbid Acolyte's ability is not working consistently. (see #27 for more details). Morphic Armor
• Morphic Armor may steal attachments and attach them even if it is the same attachment.
• Morphic armor can not target a crippling blow on a Disciple of Aldmor.
• When Morphic Armor tries to move Treasured Heirloom (or probably any attachment) when Divine Connection is in play, the attachment will get shuffled into deck instead.
• FIXED Morphic Armor cannot target Lythite Coating.
• FIXED Morphic Armor cannot target all attachments. See #108, #127, for examples. Mystic of the Vale
• Mystic of the Vale bounces back a stolen attachment to the hand of your opponent rather than the owner. Night Owl
• FIXED When Night Owl is killed by Consuming Fear, no card is drawn.
• FIXED When Night Owl is killed by Contaminated Water, no card is drawn. Ripping Fury
• FIXED Ripping Fury is causing 1 attack weapons to damage Wulven Savage and Ironhide Karash. Rolling Boulders
• FIXED Allies are not acting normally when summoned if they were bounced by Rolling Boulders earlier. (see post #80 and #61 for more details)
• FIXED Rolling boulders is not triggering against steadfast allies. It should trigger, not effect the ally, and then proceed as normal. This goes for snare trap as well. Rothem's Visage
• FIXED You are able to cast a second Rothem's Visage if the first one has Lythite Coating attached. Sever Ties
• Sever Ties couldn't target an attachment (Enrage). Details found here. Spectral Sabre
• Several other cases have been reported where it can't target other attachments like A Legend Rises. Super Focus
• The additional attack that Superfocus provides to a specific ally is shown to similar allies that are on hand and even when Superfocus is transferred to opponent through Morphic Armor.
• Super Focus doesn't activate on the turn it is played.
• Super Focus didn't work for a crippled ally when it became the only ally after the second ally was sac lambed. Synchronicity
• Synchronicity can target behind protector. Treasured Heirloom
• FIXED When Treasure Heirloom is transferred to an opposing ally, when it is destroyed, it still draws cards for the original owner of the card. Happened when Morphic armor was used to transfer it.
• FIXED Treasured Heirloom is triggering when discarded from the hand (check for ruling, currently considered a bug)#74
• FIXED Stolen Treasured Heirlooms are returned to the wrong hand when bounced by Mystic of the Vale.
• FIXED Bug still not fixed where Treasured Heirloom causes a player to draw cards when viewed from the graveyard. Voltar's Ring
• When Voltar's Ring is in play and Nishaven uses his ability against an opponent's ally that has Blackened Heart attached to it, the ally loses 1 HP. Wand of Izikus
• If you already have a transformed Thoughtful Investment, Wand of Izikus will allow you to target another one but it won't change into an ally. Works on Tome of Knowledge though.
• FIXED Items transformed by Wand of Izikus while Voice of Winter is in play, sometimes get frozen. (NOTE: they are NOT supposed to get frozen)
• FIXED A transformed ally will trigger an opponent's Death Trap. It shouldn't as the ally wasn't summoned. Wild Berserker
• Wild Beserker keeps haste if he was to gain it when played, but then an ally is killed by different means. Xar Modulator
• Xar Modulator can use his ability to attach an attachment even if he has one already.

[Shadow Era]

Non-gamebreaking issues:

• Timer does not go up while activating antimatter ability.
• Cards sometimes gets stuck above everything else. I think this is related to drag and drop functionality or maybe from when playing a card when animation for another card is not yet finished
• When multiple allies die at the same time, they still go to the graveyard in random order.
• Morbid Acolyte can target allies with no passive abilities.
• When activating Punisher's Gauntlets, sometimes none of the valid target allies can be targeted. Cancelling and immediately activating the ability again solves the issue.
• Drag and drop functionality doesn't work with stolen cards.
• Some actions seem to make cards larger than normal. (Mystic of the Vale return a hero's Blood Frenzy)
• The health gain animation from Twilight Tribe Harald is not shown.
• When Champion of Irum dies he displays a health gain animation. Same goes for allies under King's Pride.
• When Paladin of Unaxio's ability is used on an ally with Captured Prey attacks, the animation is removed even though it shouldn't be.
• Erika does not have the stealth animation.
• When an ally has a large number of attachments equipped, its impossible to select every one. There needs to be an updated way of selecting attachments.
• Drag and drop functionality is not consistent. There are times when you drag an ally to attack and it will behave as if you clicked it instead even if the ally has no active ability.
• With War Banner in play, Wild Berserker's attack shows as 3 even while he is still in your hand.
• Bloodthirsty and Pride of the Mountain trigger when the hero is killed.

Hope coming to live server soon!

Be sure to refresh test.shadowera.com until it says v1.73 or you will cause sync errors when you play!

Really like how you have done meltdown, very nice. I did notice when I used a mixture of packs one time (1 cotc, 3 DP iirc) that it came up with only 3 heroes to chose from - there were two copies of Darkclaw, bug ?

That's normal. It's random. You might even get 4 of the same!

I remember it happened before.

It for sure happens in physical! I think you might have just been lucky not to run into it. Raphael plays a lot of Meltdown, so maybe he could tell us if he ever got doubles.
