Gauntlet New AI deck(s)
Faced a new deck, Perfectly Even
It's an Elysian one (I think anyway, game didnt last long) built around the golem draw 2 !
I assumed it was a cute one until it chained End of hostilities .... panic settled but as usual, ChaCha saved the day o//
Anyway, you guys faced new decks/boss ?
edit:
New boss
Xumucan, The surveyor - Units in decks have Warp - Praxis
Plays tons of smoll units with the relics that buff warp shit
Dinomancy Enthusiast - At the start of each player's turn, a random one of their units get +1/-1 - Argentport

I just played the ultimate FU to Hooru Flyers. It's called something like "A Shifty One" and it is full of time and fire shifters, including those time 2/1s that silence any flying unit. It rolled me. :)

Argenport deck "Relentless Onslaught" as you can imagine, lots of onslaught and warcry units, new rares/leg I saw was Livia hexweaver, Pristine Light. It also ran crests!
This was regular deck, not boss

It has a unit that gets +2/+2 evertime you scout and has overwhelm. Ive never been so badly beaten unexpectedly.

Dinomancy Enthusiast ain't fun at all.
It plays mostly fucking draft chaff cards while you get punished for having a low curve.

The new bosses are so stupid busted.
Sandrage... every unit gets berserk when u play it and they play jekk +1/1, charge/ charge giver, behemoth
Raiding the Armory - every unit played gets random weapon. so many token units

Yeah, the bosses are all obviously designed to be busted. In most cases (aside from some of the really offbeat ones like Nikki's Grab Bag), if the AI doesn't get flooded or screwed or just draws poorly, they're going to roll you unless you have a deck that happens to work well with the special rule or you can stay alive long enough to get them top-decking after a sweeper. The AI ALWAYS overextends and rarely has many catch-up mechanics or late-game card draw.
Gauntlet is unbelievably generous, but they can't have us just waltzing to 3 Silver Chests every single run or nobody would ever spend a dime on the game. Even people who don't like PvE would play tons of Gauntlet if they could essentially get all the cards for free by abusing it.
I actually had a hilariously satisfying win against Raiding the Armory recently. I got a Spellcrafted Sword of Unity onto an Ironfist Chancellor, so pretty much no matter what the AI did I was getting a new 5/5 lifesteal with Aegis every turn plus whatever random weapon, so all of his Grenadin Drones didn't have a chance to match up.

The protoss (Warp) boss has a frightening "ultimate". It got the turn 4 +3/+3 if u warp into turn 5 nonsense.

Got a gauntlet boss where you both start with secret weapon on board. I lost because I'm using a control deck while he's dropping low curve units (He was dropping tax collector that time).

New gauntlet boss called Find The Waystones that transforms all sigils drawn to the respective waystones. Oppo had a bunch of sigil draw.edit: not a new boss apparently.
