When you set a formation in your normal formation window, then open CWF and put those SAME heroes where you want them and push "Upload" it simply takes a snapshot of those heroes, with whatever gear and runes they are wearing, and uses them.

Now, if you close CWF and change formation in your normal game formation window you will still be fine AS LONG AS YOU DO NOT GO BACK INTO CWF AND PUSH UPLOAD AGAIN.

If you go back into CWF and change ANYTHING AT ALL (even if you just change locations) in your formation, it will take a NEW SNAPSHOT of those heroes (Now maybe without any runes and gear on them) and use that.

There is a simple way to stop this.
During CWF DO NOT change your NORMAL GAME formation from what you are using in CWF. If you change your CWF formation, make sure you change Game Formation also. I know it's setup to look like you can do other things during CWF, but you can't if you want to properly compete. Also, in answer to the formation upload issue, it seems that if you push upload about 10 times RIGHT BEFORE the timer hits 1:00, it takes it correctly.

There is a long term solution to this issue.
Allow players to set Gear and Rune Presets and Assign them to Any heroes. Each player could be allowed 12 presets that would include Gear AND Rune configurations and save them accordingly. IE: CalvinBanishSetup, LancePvPSetup or HIGHATTACK and MAGESetup1, etc... I'm sure this isn't easy, but it seems to be the only logical long term solution to this problem.

I hope I explained this clear enough for all to understand.
