LobbyLens v1.6.2

A correctness and polish pass over the whole plugin.

Fixed

• Recent form now also matches players by their stable account id, so someone who changed their battletag no longer shows a blank form.
• In a lobby where two players picked the same hero, live details (health, tier, comp, encounter count) could attach to the wrong player after the panel refreshed.
• The (last) marker now follows your most recent fight instead of occasionally landing on another opponent.
• The ✕ button now actually closes the panel for the rest of the match (it used to reappear a few seconds later).
• Lobby average is now the average of your opponents, so the "you +/-" number means what you'd expect.

Improved

• Form loads even if a portrait is still un-hovered, and retries if the first request fails.
• Recent form moved to the small detail line, keeping the right column to rating and rank.
• The collapsed pill is properly small now, and the preview tells you how to dismiss it.
• Lighter panel redraws, and a few internal robustness fixes (leaderboard refresh races, leftover update temp files).

Auto-update installs this on your next HDT restart.

LobbyLens v1.6.1

A quick fix on top of v1.6.0.

Fixed

• In Duos, the encounter counter (×N) and the (last) marker could attach to your own teammate. They now only ever mark opposing players.

Everything from v1.6.0 (lobby average, recent form, encounter counts, collapse-to-pill, live preview) is included. Auto-update installs this on your next HDT restart.

LobbyLens v1.6.0

The biggest LobbyLens update yet — new lobby intel, a smarter panel, and better plumbing under the hood.

New

• Lobby average — a header line shows the table's average rating and your delta to it, so you know at a glance how tough the lobby is.
• Recent form — each opponent's recent average placement, built from the community's anonymized match data (opt-in). No third-party site, no accounts.
• Encounter counts — how many times you've fought each player this match (×N), with a (last) marker on your most recent opponent.
• Collapse to a pill — the – button shrinks the panel to a small, draggable, semi-transparent badge; click it to expand. Handy for streaming.
• Preview button in Settings positions and scales the panel without starting a game.

Improved

• Names now resolve through HDT's own lobby data first (more robust across game patches), with the previous method kept as a fallback.

Auto-update installs this on your next HDT restart. Manual install: drop LobbyLens.dll from the zip into %AppData%\HearthstoneDeckTracker\Plugins\ and restart HDT.

LobbyLens v1.5.3

New: the player you fight next is tagged (next) in the panel, styled like the existing (you) marker. In duos the whole opposing team is tagged; a dead player tagged (next) means you're fighting their ghost board. Toggle under Settings → Features (on by default).

Install (first time)

1. Download LobbyLens-v1.5.3.zip below and unzip it
2. Copy LobbyLens.dll into %AppData%\HearthstoneDeckTracker\Plugins\
3. Restart Hearthstone Deck Tracker and enable LobbyLens under Options → Tracker → Plugins

Already installed? Auto-update applies this on your next HDT restart.

LobbyLens is free and ad-free. If it helps you climb, there's a tip jar in the plugin's Settings window.

LobbyLens v1.5.2

Verbose debug logging is now off by default for every install, including ones carrying the always-on setting from early versions. Re-enable any time in Settings (gear button on the panel) — the choice sticks from then on.

Auto-update installs this on the next HDT restart.

LobbyLens v1.5.1

Reliability and polish release.

Fixed

• The plugin now finds Hearthstone installed on any drive (previously only the default C:\Program Files (x86) path attached reliably)
• Conceding early no longer records a fake 1st place in the session tracker
• Board-size leaderboard parsing runs off HDT's UI thread (no more hitch at match start when falling back to the Blizzard API)
• Font-size changes apply immediately
• Mouse wheel over the panel now zooms in the expected direction

Improved

• Stable account ids keep being captured after all names resolve (better anonymized match reports)
• Remote support/update links only ever open https URLs
• Cleaner panel while portraits are unresolved (single countdown line instead of placeholder rows)

Auto-update installs this on the next HDT restart. Manual install: drop LobbyLens.dll from the zip into %AppData%\HearthstoneDeckTracker\Plugins\ and restart HDT.
