Throwing my hat into the ring again... Tournament #5

I'm joining the tournament again. As you can see, I have lots of hearts saved up. I think I must have gotten two 50 heart bonuses from the Daily Gift. And now it's time to use them!

I wanted to join early to avoid being flagged for "exploitation" of Deck Wars. I'm going to assume that this account flagging is on a per-tournament basis, and that joining early enough might allow me to avoid this problem in the future. I think last time I joined, I joined the Thursday before the Black Card Tournament ended, and I used up many hearts all at once. Could that be what flagged my account?

In any case, this is Tournament #5, so we are looking at Apple Tree and Good King Wonderful. Kind of... meh. And I don't like playing Nice Lands Decks. They're kind of boring.

Frustrating Deck Wars -- Connection Failed

Lately, I've been running into this problem a lot -- "Connection Failed". As far as I can tell, you just have to keep trying. I usually wait for a few minutes and try again, and sometimes it miraculously works again. I've hit this problem before, but now it's almost constant. I'm guessing that, because the Tournament ends on Saturday, people are hitting the servers pretty hard, and that could be causing connection timeouts.

But even when I can find a match, lately I've found that the matches can be really, really uneven matches. Look at this screen -- how in the world do I have a chance against a Level 50 hero with 260 points!?!? Sure, it's a 10 trophy match, but it would be almost impossible for me to win.

Is it worth it to complain to the developers? I doubt it. There are so many bugs in this game that it doesn't seem like that care.
