We feel that this has impacted some players' ability to enjoy the game. As such, we will soon be restricting how the country-specific cards sleeves appear in game:
- Players who previously acquired these sleeves will still see them in their collection and may still apply them to decks.
- During matches, only the player who has these card sleeves applied will see them on their deck; it will appear as the default card back to opponents.
- Players will receive 300 gems per flag card sleeve in their collection when this change goes live, regardless of how they originally obtained the sleeve(s).
