Daily Challenges are mind-numbingly annoying.

Does anyone actually have fun playing the Daily Challenges?

There is one challenge each week that takes some thought to win. It is fun.

The other six are awful. They give you a terrible deck that you are expected to eventually get a lucky win from. Sometimes it takes one game, sometimes it takes six. Playing the same thing over and over, and hoping for your lucky break is not fun.

I'm done after today's challenge. I don't need the tickets anyway.

    If they make all 7 challenges Puzzle, it will be much better

    The puzzles are even worse imo. Most of the time they are straight forward. Play a couple of cards in the right lanes in the right order and push a button game over. Not fun at all. There was only one that was complicated and most people probably just looked up how to do it on youtube

    I think the puzzle ones need to be harder, as sometimes I see the answer instantly and am left thinking, "I guess that's today's challenge?".

    Most of the others, I agree are lazily put together. It seems all they are doing is choosing one of their many pre-made decks for the player to use, then matching them  up with a deck that they think they will struggle against. 

    I think it would be much cooler if the challenges were more unique, playing with different mechanics and such (e.g. having 4 water lanes). Stuff like 'each plant and zombie takes 1 damage at the start of each turn' is not nearly adventurous enough.

    I agree with most here.
    It would be interesting to have puzzles on 2 rounds (similar to chess problems: win in 2/3/4) Lots more combinations. I believe with the new set and environments there will be some tough ones coming up.
    As for the rest of the week, it's either a big fail (e.g. use the new berries as much as you can - first zombie move: acid rain) or a pot luck.
    Most times I succeed in 1 go, and there is always 1 per week that will take 10 attempts until all the stars are aligned. Yesterday's challenge was like that.
    Also, if they want us to "try" one of their pre-built decks, it would be better if we could replay the challenges indefinitely (with no reward).
    I fail to see how you can discover a deck when you play once with it and win by round 5/6.

    I echo the frustration of  the situations where you're given decks that seem to be the worst possible pre-built deck to go against the AI Hero.  I'm chasing cheese (tickets), so I suck it up and play until I win, but it'd be nice to be given the option of which pre-built deck we get to use.

    Today's puzzle is the perfect example of why I think puzzles are a dumb daily challenge. A whopping 15 seconds to complete. I'd rather play a full match with deck that has cards I don't have. I do think you should be able to replay the missions though to try out the cards you don't have
