Botaoshi- and issue in card description
This card had my head spin a few times until I realized what's wrong with it; the description is misleading! The wiki even has a different description than the game itself.

The card reads "Move monsters in a small radius clockwise to the next hero's slice, swap their section, and deal 2 damage to all monsters in that section."

But what happens if you swap monsters from multiple sections at once? Well, definitely not that! From the few times I was able to deliberately look for it after I realized something was wrong, it dumps the monsters into a section based on the majority of what you moved. So if you have 2 monsters in a near section, and 1 in a far section, all 3 will end up in a far section.

What should be done to fix this? I'm not really sure. Providing more detail in the description would get messy, and I'm not suggesting the functionality itself should change. Assuming this is how it works, maybe updating it to something like "Move monsters in a small radius clockwise to the next hero's slice, swap their section based on the majority of monsters moved, and deal 2 damage to all monsters in that section"

It does make the description longer, but I'm not sure what other way this could be communicated clearly.

Good feedback, thanks! If I recall right the section to which monsters are moved is not the one you are aiming at (so the opposite to the one your cursor is over when playing card).

I will make a task to double-check how it behaves and we will discuss how to address this. Again, since it already changed once (which is why I suspect wiki has a different description).

I think the issue then, in the wording, is it says "swap THEIR section," which makes it sound independent of where you're targeting, and more reliant on the monsters themselves. This part of the description might be what needs to be adjusted.

What section the monster are in does not matter, if you pay close attention, you'll notice that what matters is which section your cursor is in. So if you cursor (middle of the circle) is on the inside, all monsters regardless of which section they are in, will move to the outside of the next slice. Hope that made sense.
