What's submachine's purpose of needing a square shaped back of an elements card 

I needed it for this: http://elementscommunity.org/forum/forum-games/elements-demon-tournament/msg1197916/#msg1197916
Before this, i used Magic the Gathering cards as placeholder art.

Special Spins (and therefore, Shard of Patience) are available in all arena leagues, but the amount of consecutive wins needed differ. 5 for Bronze, 4 for Silver, 3 for Gold, and 2 for Plat. Also, Bronze and Silver give unupped rares, while Gold and Plat give upped rares.

Wait, if Shard of Patience is only available via Special Spins which contains the rare card used in the Arena decks while those decks was made by players, how the heck those players got that card in the first place?

There were arena decks before shards were introduced, so they would just go through shardless decks to get to the special spin, which could give shards. Then eventually people had shards. Boom.

So, I can get any shards via Special Spins even though all of my opponents in the Arena I faced didn't have any?

Special spin rares aren't based on the decks you've faced to get to them. They just have four random rares, there's no correlation between decks you've faced and special spins.

If so, why is Shard of Patience the hardest Shard to get? Or is it just Murphy's Law?

There is no "hardest" rare to get, it's all just probability and RNG in deciding which rares are in which slots. The only rare that's significantly harder to get is a nymph, but that's obvious.

For SPECIAL SPINS only there is no hardest rare to get, except of course nymphs because you get relics instead (also relics don't show up in special spins)
For general spins there are harder rares to get because they're based on your opponents deck
Id say the least commonly used rares are: Trident, Morning Star, SoI, Pulveriser, and then the others are all relatively close to one another in how hard to obtain  (note this is when vsing player created decks, not AI0-5)

[iancudorinmarian]

umm, you cant et relics from special spins...

[Monox D. I-Fly]

You guys are right. I just got this card about half an hour ago in the Silver Arena's Special Spin. Played a whole week to get it.

[yee]

I just faced a deck in Silver that was 1344 days old
How is that possible?

It had 2 wins and 108 loses and was at rank 499.

[Ginyu]

This isn't special in Bronze Arena, where less than 500 people submit decks.
In Silver, however... with a 2-108 record, it shouldn't still be there, theoretically. Or Silver is less active than I thought it to be.
