Hello everyone
I was wondering, what is the purpose of hiding your enemy's ID? I mean, I'm aware this was meant to prevent you from knowing what your enemy plays if you meet him once again, but in reality, it makes no sense really, for few reasons.
1. His mulligan and first round will not be the same as last game, it will be similar. But that was always the case.
2. There isn't much variety of decks recently, and seeing enemy's hero ability, you will know what cards he holds in his deck and you will play around that anyway. In fact you are a pro, you know the meta very well.
3. You discourage players to use a bigger variety of decks. Hiding your identity allows you to blatantly use one deck. Pros should be flexible, should be encouraged to use more decks in one day, not just one. I mean, they could do that, but that obviously could put them in disadvantage eventually.
4. Many people blatantly go online and copy strongest decks anyway, everyone knows these archtypes and enemies easily read what they will play or might play. Hiding players ID does not help this case.
5. It removes social aspect of the game.
6. You hide nicknames in Pro rank, but you run official tournaments on open decks. What sense does that make?
I would suggest removing feature that hides your enemy's ID.
Thanks for reading, have a nice one!
