Yep. As well as the broken Steam achievements...
As for the evolving card one, it advances. Just not always from the evolving cards... "Follow" that contract so that you get notifications as you play and you'll eventually figure out what cards trigger it. I spent a good part of last month playing a Wild Hunt / Consume hybrid deck and there are a lot of WH cards that seem to advance the counter. I could sometimes gain up to 6 points in a single match. There are also a lot of weird interactions - like Winter Queen doesn't trigger the counter on deployment from dual frost, but she counts towards it when you trigger her thrive ability. And some cards will only count if played in certain rounds or if other cards are played before them.
EDIT - My best guess is that it doesn't advance from the evolving cards at all, but advances whenever a "devotion" ability is triggered. Which would explain why Aen Elle Conquerors tick every time you play them, WInter Queen ticks off her thrive ability, and some of the other consistent triggers. Except there's a lot of weird advancement pop-ups that appear inconsistently. Many of the WH cards that Auberon can spawn will advance the counter (I think ONLY after I play him, though, and then only if they were one of the three cards to choose from). However, I've had semi-regular advances from The Apiarian Phantom and some one time triggers from non-wild hunt cards like Keltullis.
