Game locks when opponent concedes at ranked
Game locks when opponent concedes at ranked.
- The game does not disconect.
- User menu cannot be acces by ESC key. The only way to quit is by closing the game in windows.
- Cards animation and graphics engine still working.
Not the first time that happen. Player concedes inmediatly after played card animation finish.
Always with odd names players. In this case: USBSoundDevice
I think that "Raal, Izzet Viceroy" triggers it... Hard to say if it is a bug or a hack. I was playing murderous raider on him. Or maybe rage quiters are broking the game XD

I had the same issue occur after I casted Nissa, my opponent casted Spell Pierce, I started tapping mana to pay for the cost and my opponent concedes which ends up locking my game. I can still look at cards but my opponent is no longer in the game and I cannot quit the game either.

Happened again today. One "random" disconnect out of many dozen games, and it was during the final attack for the win, changing a 3 game win into a draw.

Just had this happen to me as well. Like so:
I have 5 lands in play, no other permanents. Opponent has 2 lands and a Brineborn CutthroatI cast Teferi, Time Raveler
Opponent Responds with Spell Pierce (I have mana available to pay)
Brineborn Cutthroat Trigger goes on the stack
I begin to tap my lands for mana as my opponent concedes
Game soft locks, with no ability to access the game menu to concede the game or otherwise exit the screen. I end the task via the task manager, and upon restarting the client, I am put directly into the match waiting screen. After 30 seconds or so, I am reconnected with the match, saying that both players have submitted after sideboarding for match 3. When the match screen opens, the sideboarding menu is superimposed on the match screen (see photo). When I hit "Done", it sends me back into the waiting screen, which says I have completed sideboarding, but my opponent has not. Eventually it informs me I have lost the match (see photo).

Just happened 3 times in a row. Via network sniff, it showed I'm connecting to east USA server.

Trying to attach the video again; didn't work the first time.
By the way, I was actually in the process of clicking on the mana color when my opponent conceded. Perhaps knowing that timing will help the developers isolate this issue.

I just had the same issue, but I was choosing the color of mana to get from Domri's +1 loyalty ability when my opponent conceded. No victory screen, and the game continues but can't progress. I recorded a video of the interoperability of the game after this. Everything is responsive, but there's no options menu for me to exit the game, and I can't actually do anything.

I just got the same issue (however I was tapping lands).

My opponent conceded while I was manually tapping Elves for mana, then the game soft locked. No victory screen, no ability to interact, no ability to access game menu. Interactive background elements & card highlighting remained intact as if the game were still proceeding.

Just curious in case it is game servers - what region are you guys playing in? I'm playing from NZ which I guess would be the Asia Pacific or Oceania region.. unless it's all tied up to the Americas.

Same here, sometimes when I concede, or when opponent concedes, the game freezes and shows a disconnected message. The win/loss is correctly accounted in the account though.
Appeared recently after WotS update.

Game disconnects whenever any player concedes the game. Also happens at other random times, but can reproduce reliably by conceding. This did not happen before the recent updates for WotS :(
