Is it me or is the card timer not working correctly ... it counts down to about 9 seconds and poof your round is up. I have been skipped over for spells way to many times. Also try and buy a henchman lol what a joke ... the shop doesn't stay open long enough to buy one and your round is up......

Mine gets down to around 4 seconds before it skips me if I'm working in a group for a battle. I always assumed it was due to an intentional lag between computers to keep the battle somewhat consistent for players working in groups? Or maybe it's just messed up. >,< It's super annoying either way.

sounds like you have a slow connection. I have no problem buying henchmen and the timer goes all the way down to 1 for me.

but I have a fast connection.

Yeah, it is connection speed. The games timer may be up, but lag makes the one you see fall behind. I have a slow connection and it is pretty normal for me.
