Sometimes, I don’t remember exactly what a given troop does, its type (eg, Knight, Marauder…), or the Rare card’s secondary color (it’s hidden behind the Ultra-Rare cards), and I either have to suck it up, or go look somewhere to find out more. Even if I do, I won’t be able to check traits I have unlocked. It’d also be nice to check my weapons before choosing a given troop (for example, if I have covered all colors, but Purple, but I have lots of units that attack the last enemy, it might not be a good idea to count on Silent Night). ---

I agree. Having the option to review previously chosen troops is sometimes necessary when it comes to the colour spread and spells. Traits are irrelevant though, they don’t work in the arena. ---

Oh, they don’t? I’m sure they show as unlocked on the card, though, but I don’t remember if they were active during the battles. ---

Exactly that. 🙂 They show while selecting the troops, but they don’t work in battle. ---

This would work easily enough by converting from the old team layout to the new layout where it’s a list visable on the left instead of the whole card displayed under the current choices. ---

Totally +1 to this. I often forget what color mana I’ve already got covered, especially by the time I get to the third troop. I’m old, okay, I don’t have the best memory anymore, don’t be hating. Anyway, it would be nice to have the previous picks available just so I can keep a strategy straight as I choose my next troop. ---
