Board Game Arena

I moved from Average to Good after a winning game. My stats right after that game were: - 125 games - 79 wins The next game I played was a loss. I went back to Average with stats, pretty obviously, of: - 126 games - 79 wins I then won the next, and moved back to Good again. So this at least confirms...

They're telling us collusion was a problem, we have to take their word on that. They're telling us the new system discourages it, we have to take their word on that as well. Do I think it does enough or works in every case? No, but it's likely better than nothing. BGA most likely doesn't have a larg...

To be honest, I think if you're playing for elo then you're doing it wrong. The system is mostly working as intended if you lose a lot of elo losing to low-rated opponents and gain little for beating them. There shouldn't be an incentive for repeatedly destroying beginners and occasional players. Yo...

The change to Arena matching whereby players must Accept game start has made it far easier to get into the same game as another account. If you don't both have a game starting at the exact same moment, you just Decline to start. I don't play Hearts but I know the game and have been tracking this ind...

I feel you on this. It causes a shift away from simply trying to be good at the game, to learning where the bugs are and exploiting them. In short, knowing the bugs gives you a significant advantage. That's simply wrong, and kills the enjoyment for inexperienced players. The key bug that needs fixin...

You need to report this to the moderators. The more people who report this, the more likely they are to take action against the players doing this. Without naming any accounts, we have had issues lately with team playing in KoT Arena. I've raised reports but the issue hasn't stopped, and in fact is ...

I know exactly who the OP account belongs to. The OP's other accounts have been the subject of unfair play reports in the past. Interesting they would choose to call out others in public, given their own history. Creating moderation reports about cheaters does work, but not enough is done to punish ...

Interesting one. The rule with cultists is that you can heal before taking lethal damage, not during or after. So if you had 5 health and a cultist, and took 5 damage, you can heal to 6 and only after that do you take the 5 damage. In this case you had 10 health, so would have needed to illegally he...

Not sure I like the sound of that expansion tbh. The game doesn't need more ways to gain VP in my opinion, plus this would appear to incentivise staying out of Tokyo to protect your mask(s). Hard to tell how the dynamics will work until you play it, however. We know for sure that the Evos won't be a...

Below the game table, there are options to change backgrounds and fonts. This won't change card fonts, however. There are zoom options on desktop, too. If you're playing on mobile, I'd suggest making sure tooltips are available, and clicking any card you are having trouble reading. Obviously don't d...
