Here are the patch notes for today's Puzzle Strike update:
- Fixed various Quick Match-related bugs
- Fixed a Puzzlebot hang when playing Wartime Tactics while Sale Prices is active
- The Cancel button on the initial character select screen of a QM or "Practice vs CPU" game now properly quits back to the main manu
- Fixed Midori Puzzlebot's Dragon Form often deactivating after the bot does a counter-crash
I'm not sure whether this fixes all known Puzzle Strike QM bugs. Those are really hard to test though, so if you see some more glitchy QMs, I'd like to know about it.
Enjoy the game!

Puzzle Strike is a deckbuilding puzzle game played amongst Fantasy Strike characters. It's inspired by puzzle games such as Puzzle Fighter. Gems fall into each player's gem pile every turn, and whoever's gem pile fills up first loses. Improve your deck (of chips!) by purchasing new chips as the game unfolds. Will you go heavy on economy, offense, or build an intricate engine? In any case, make sure to adapt to your opponents because Puzzle Strike has a lot more interactivity than most other deckbuilders. And like the other games in the Fantasy Strike universe, Puzzle Strike is designed to hold up to thousands of games at the expert level, and we fully embrace the philosophy of even-playfield competition.
