Battlegrounds: Minion Swapping Error

I had to post to see if this is bothering anyone else. I have to be losing on avg 2-3 games a day because of this.

Mobile player: During recruit phase when playing minions quickly, cycling like an APM board, I’ve noticed the game may lag, or not at all, and swaps 1 or 2 of my minions. Once the game catches up you sold a minion you didn’t intend to ( like your largest stat minion or a key component to your build) resulting in a loss or near loss.

Also when cycling cards quickly on mobile I notice when the game enters combat phase sometimes all my minions are swapped around out of original order from recruit phase but still plays as if they’re in original order. On rarer occasions it swaps the order of my opponents minions. Thats a pain in the behind late game when you’re trying to strategize against opponents boards.

All these seem to only occur when cycling quickly through cards during recruit phase on mobile. These things make it soo tough playing BG on mobile 8k+, because the higher rank you get, the faster you have to play late game in many cases.

This has been reoccurring for years. I dont think they will fix it, much like the ‘ghost gold’ that shows on your UI but is not actually there.

It’s a visual bug on the client side. It doesn’t actually resolve combat that way.

The format generally suffers from visual lag. For example whenever the timer runs out you have no clue if there’s any time left so you have to assume it’s off and leave the rope at least 2 seconds more.

Basically programmer skill issue on their part.

yea, it happens a lot on pc as well. My minions move on their own, into poor positions, making them susceptible to cleave pirates.

I think it’s like it’s missing the Constructed’s code that gives some extra time while you play the last cards. When the rope is about to run out and it needs 2 seconds you may play a magnetic and then it just ends anyway. You have to rush from the first moment.

This happens even when I haven’t moved them. I don’t move them often.
