> [@Zelarith](#): > > Wasn’t Bone Dragon’s nerf due for this week? I understand the Bone Dragon correction may need a game update to allow it to work: hence delay. What I don’t understand is why we can’t do a minor nerf (increase mana cost to 16-17) in the meantime. ---

You are saying its that much harder yet you are the one sitting on the top? This shows me that even though you are getting less points (2/3 trophy? ) per fight you are still able to keep up with other players on reset. ---

The game just got confused and thought your username was Sheggra so gave you plenty of them 😛 Took me I think 70 or so keys, and got 1 GG, no other legendaries. ---
