It's only happened to me once out of the 6 Rogues I've faced last few days. But the fact it happens at all, and they're not fixing it, stinks! I don't care what lame excuse they have. They were quick enough to pull back the explorer's hat and forgotten torch when they messed up and released them early. The raptor card should be pulled from the game just the same.
To be fair they have noted they are trying to get it fixed. They're probably gonna have it patched out with other inconsistencies than hotfix the game again. I have seen less Rogues on ladder recently though, and the bug seems to have multiple triggers than what I initially wrote in the OP.

PATCH 4.1.0 has hereby fixed the bug as of today. Nothing to see here, humans. This thread is now defunct.
