Too much battery drain
The power usage is ridiculous. I can only get a few matches in and my battery is spent. For instance I played 1 match before coming here and it drained 20% of my battery

Not only drains fast but also gets very hot.
They should be able to improve that, this is a card game not some high graphically demanding top mobile game... My expectation is they will optimize it eventually, but now probably they have higher priority issues.
But since a road map it's not provided to the public, not really sure what are they prioritizing.

This has been a problem for months now...I'm not sure we're likely to see a fix for it anytime soon. The closest I can get to a less obscene battery drain is to have low power mode on, wifi only (data is NOT an option because it causes device heat even faster regardless of low power mode being enabled), and.....funnily enough, it seems to drain less when I don't have a charger plugged in. It can still actually charge while running the game, but it's much slower to charge, and never really reaches past 80%....
Okay, addendum as I'm writing this, I checked the battery statistics in my phone's settings and it specifically notes "audio" as the main thing the app is using. I already have the ringer (and by extension, external sound) off on my phone when I'm using it, but I'll try manually disabling the sound in-game and see if that makes any difference.

This has been a known problem for months, the staff doesn't seem to be interested in fixing it (or they can't for whatever reason).
In all honesty, it should be something that’s up there in terms of priority when battery overheating can actually damage peoples’ phones and potentially get the app removed from app stores.
