These include but aren't limited to: How Regeneration is supposed to work (arguably not how Val describes it), how to Wheel (as written in the FAQ the further you wheel around in one go the less you actually move), and how Cannons interact with Monstrous Creatures and Behemoths (currently the cannon ball automatically stops when Crunch happens, so that means you'd automatically hit a monstrous creature or behemoth on anything but a misfire simply by targeting their base).
