17.4 Server Side Patch - Captain Eudora Hero Power In Battlegrounds Hotfix
Blizzard just announced another server-side patch targeting Captain Eudora's Hero Power in Battlegrounds. This change has already been deployed to the game.
Quote from BlizzardHey everyone,
We’re currently rolling out a hotfix for another Battlegrounds bug introduced in the 17.4 Patch:
- Fixed an issue where minions generated by Captain Eudora's Hero Power were not correctly interacting with the minion pool.
This will address multiple Battlegrounds bugs reported recently such as not receiving a minion when playing Murozond, not getting a Murloc when using Fungalmancer Flurgl’s Hero Power, getting 1 less minion when refreshing Bob’s Tavern, and only getting 2 Discover choices.
This update will take place on the server-side, so you won’t have to download anything if you’ve updated to 17.4.
Disagree, the bugs are on an every patch basis now, and are often major, at least in hearthstone wherein they were not major before and not as often. WOW may be blizzard but is a different team.
I think you need to review this Video as well, a lot of bugs was detected by the creator.

I doubt they suck at testing, likely Activision cut employees and insisted on faster development, which is automatically going to be at the expense of testing considering the head count remains the same. Not defending them by the way... Just saying you do a thing you get a certain result.
But its been like this since The Frozen Throne release in WoW so I feel its just there bad testing.
Blizzard: Sorry guys, we suck at testing, every time we release something, we have to realise a patch in the next two days after because we are not able to test.
I suspect that they added some code to the generating minions parts; probably to do with making sure that the generated by eudora cards aren't affecting pools or similar. All the issues are around generating cards from the pool, so I can see how the issues are related. Could be that it was somehow adding a copy that was empty or something odd.
Those are some
Rather odd and seemingly unrelated issues.
How exactly could they mess up the discover mechanic, something that already existed?
Welcome to the life of all programmers and QA devs ... a question they ask themselves every day.
They are related, the minion missing on those effects is the one generated by Eudora's hero power, that was the fix
