So, I was playing and faced Firefly Queen.  She didn't spawn ANY elite fireflies most of the battle... she had more than enough quanta to do so, but just didn't... she finally played her first firefly when she had 350+ life quanta... not sure what's going on there... the screenshot from above was right before I played inundation...

hmm... but I had just drawn flood... it was weird, I started slow (no shields / shards) and thought it was going to be over soon, but she just didn't spawn any fireflies...

In the direct chat we (me and one or two others) talked briefly upon this early this morning.

I did not have this problem, exactly. She did spawn them but not every turn even though she were able to as she used to do before today. But then again she had very few emerald towers and was playing bonds at every 5 she got and I got electrocutor early in each game.
I simply thought that she conserved mana for the bonds.

Some more people might have Insight into this. She may very well have been acting faulty.
She was way weaker today.

Her Eagles did not shoot at my RoLs until they were 5 or more either.

maybe it was actually broken, like the coding messed up today or something.
maybe zanz got annoyed at all the people complaining that ais were too hard because of the ff spams.
maybe some random [insert forbidden word]h@#$&r[/insert forbidden word] did it for the above reason

I could've sworn that someone said the AI's gotten smart enough to starve Oty's out.  Obviously there was no Oty there, but I'll bet that response is linked.

I had that problem twice, too. Once it didn't create any Fireflys and another game it created the first one, after having about 100 quanta and 3 Queen lobotimized. I was playing a Rol/Hope-deck, so no flooding nor Otyughs nor any other creature control out.

I have played FQ probably about a dozen times since 1.22 and she definitely is not working correctly (which i actually don't mind  ;)). For some reason she is not spawning fireflies automatically when she has the quanta. I've had 3-4 of the games where she has had 3-4 FFQ's out and did not spawn one firefly the whole game. Other games it's been sporadic. All the games have been with a rainbow and it doesn't matter if my oty is out or not.

I just had the same thing happen to me.  FfQ played nothing but pillars and emp bonds until I had her down to half health then put out 1 Eagle's Eye and that is it.
