Posted Mar 30, 2023 (March of the Lich King)Dude u nuts xD
I sure hope you bring these reasons next time blizzard fix something pack-related(more legendaries, free packs, remember?) in less than 2-3 hours.
Lemme copy this text. It will make a great copypasta.

Posted Mar 30, 2023 (March of the Lich King)As I am sure you may know, I don't actually work at Blizzard and the above outline of a development cycle is pretty standard across the industry.
Are you going to complain that Blizzard fix something TOO quickly?
Not to mention that (for Blizzard) fixing something that is literally losing them money in real-time like that, and requires immediate action that overrides anything else (called "pulling the Andon Chord", which means that ALL development on anything else stops until this is fixed) is VASTLY different to a bog standard functionality bug that is fixed in the standard development cycle.

Posted Mar 29, 2023 (March of the Lich King)That's a pretty short turnaround for most Development teams, when you take into consideration the process for creating a fix:
Investigation of a Bug
Replication of Bug
Project Planning for Scrum Development
Proritisation of Changes
Implementation of Bug Fix in the Code
Development Testing of Code
Implementation of further Code Fixes
QA Testing of Changes
Implementation of Code Changes for knock on effects / Regression
QA Testing of Further Changes
UAT Testing
Content and Release Notes Creation and Checking
QA Testing of Content Changes
Merge Testing and Smoke Tests
Development Fixes for Merge Conflictions
QA Regression Testing and UAT
Release Planning
Production Release Cycle
Getting all that done in a few weeks for a large scale production cycle is pretty good.

Posted Mar 28, 2023 (March of the Lich King)Paying attention to the superior mode of the game is probably wise. Standard is going to be aggro forever and wild is a lost cause.

Posted Mar 29, 2023 (March of the Lich King)But they still wont give us compensation for losing vs this bug.
It's not the first (Elise signature bug) and definitely not the last situation where we just wasting gold to be screw over.
It's not the ladder where you just waste some stars because of bugs, we pay gold.
Duels used to be my favorite game mode, but since this paladin bug im not touching it anymore
