Detailed description
• Please copy/paste the error message you see on your screen, if applicable.
My opponent could have easily won the game but he didn't know what to do when tied was triggered. I didn't know he didn't know the tie breaker at that point. Also i think his remaining potion stayed with him after end game triggered, which adds to the confusion that he picked the marbles that matched his potion instead of winning the game.
Would be nice to have a friendly reminder note saying “Player 1 and 2 are tied! Grab the most marble ingredients in one trigger to win”, or similar. Especially when time is ticking, looking up rules last minute could run out of time. Thanks• Please explain what you wanted to do, what you did and what happened

Report history
On the other hand, the rule does not specify if tied players only have the tie breaking action described on page 10 of the rule, or if they can drink one or more potions as in a normal turn, on the understanding that the marbles eventually picked by means of potions do not count for the tie breaking score.
The possibility of drinking potions would make this tie breaking less random.
I've added a fix to the next patch that highlights the situation (with a brief message) in the action bar.
