Game keeps crashing. At least every second Match.
Reinstalling, deleting Temp folders, deleting Registry Entry, Reinstalling, Restarting... It keeps happening and won't keep playing this game.
Had a ticket, but from three different support staff member got three stupid answers. after submitting all the logs: Windows events, dxdiag, crashlog... and for sure they didn't even look at it.
From basic Restart/Reinstalling advise to "Don't use wireless connection (broadband with at least 25 Mbps really?" to use VPN (US based, even if this WOULD solve the crashes. This should be a permanent status???WTH?!) and using different wireless network from different ISP... yeah now I should try wireless and for sure it suddenly could be my ISP?! How?!
Those people are so clueless and give standard pre-made advises.
The last one told me to look here for other players with the problem "maybe someone has a solution"
So now I have to do research to play this game?

Freaking FIX YOUR CODE! Has to be since some update.

The game crashes so often, I can't play. At the intro screen, doing nothing, playing someone, building a deck. Can't fix it, I've tried everything short of an OS reinstall.

The Brainac developers have now introduced a new bug with the latest update. Instead of the Unity Error, we now get nothing when MTGA crashed and now MTGA just disappears! No application event codes produced to know what the error was. This is impressive stuff to f.up so badly.

Works for me now. Uninstalled. Reinstalled wifi adapter drivers. Noticed that MTGA troubleshooting was directing me to the Program Files (x86) folder, but MTGA had installed to Program Files. Reinstalled MTGA but to the x86 folder. Installed and launched fine.

I now got rid of it apprently. I had a problem with another game (StarCitizen) not downloading correctly. While looking for a solve someone stated that it is likely to be a problem with outdated network cards/adapters (rest of the discussion was about the winsocket reset via cmd.exe, so they recommend the same solves as here in MTG Arena). The oldest piece that i used on my Computer was a over ten years old Wifi USB Adapter for Windows 7 with its latest driver update in 2012. Seems like nowadays downloads are too much for my old adapter so I got me a new one for 16€ and now everythings perfectly fine.

So maybe you guys just have some outdated hardware.

Download the latest version of Visual C++ then delete Magic Arena and install again. It worked for me.

Stay slightly optimistic and enthusiastic, if your invested in this game. It will always be awesome. Problems are annoying or what not, just have an alternative thing to do. This way its like nothing ever happend and no time passed before the fix.

Issue occuring again after MID update. I had the same problem in Kaldheim, which were then solved by simple reinstall with Revo. STX and AFR were fine though. I have no idea why it randomly strikes every now and then.

I tried reinstalling C++ and .net, also used the .msi installer - no effect. From the log it says the crash is caused by: "The file 'archive:/CAB-25ec4bb73ab3f1701fe92bf50449bb85/CAB-25ec4bb73ab3f1701fe92bf50449bb85' is corrupted! Remove it and launch unity again!" I'm not a dev or engineer, there is probably no sense in trying to fix this myself. I guess it's time to finally give up on this ****** game.

I looked in
C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Temp\Wizards Of The Coast\MTGA\Crashes\<latestcrash>\error.log

and found out that a DLL (AudioDevProps2.dll) caused an Access Violation. I uninstalled "Sonic Studio" which helped me solve the startup crash for me at least.

Admins comment seems useless, there is no updated Technical Troubleshooting article for the Unity Crash.

Hello,

It sounds like you may need some more troubleshooting advice. Please review our Technical Troubleshooting articles for what advice we have available.

Thanks!

I think it's a problem lying within Unity. I have a similiar problem (not working game after new patch) with another Unity Game (Horus Heresy Legions, also a card game).

im also having issues with the unity crash issue and at first I re-installed the program was running fine till now when i get into an online match it crashes again. good thing these matches arnt ranked or id be more angry then i am currently.

I get the same **** Unity error. In reading the comments below it sounds like WoTc problem and not a my computer problem. I've done all the things suggested too. Drivers are all up to date, unistall/reinstall etc. This really makes me mad as I've been playing since Beta and given them quite a bit of money.

Okay.

-Delete the game with revo Uninstaller
- Do a intense search with revo Uninstaller, delete all entries in the Registry
- Go to your Hard Drive with your Operating System, go USER, go your BABYFACEDUSERNAME, go appData, search all the folders for Wizard of the Coast (and maybe Unity, I do not know if it was from another game) and delete it/them
-restart your computer
-be grumpy while reinstalling MTG Arena, knowing you have to do it all over again next moth.

agreed. This happens everytime there is an update

Nevermind the post below this one, I get the Unity Crash after the new patch again

It works for me now after I deleted all Microsoft C++ versions on my PC and reinstalled the most recent one. Dont forget to restart after every step.

hey soooo... maybe i figured it out... i have tried so many different things and they all failed.. heres what i did different and its working..

I downloaded MTGO. it downloaded fine. everything loaded so i said what the heck let me try MTGA for the 50th time.

MTGA started right up with no errors..
I downloaded it straight from the site like it should be

Unity crashes have been quite often resolved by installing .net compatibility pack and VC redistributable pack (VC Redist).
Those two have been a must install for MtGA to work properly since... forever.
While game may work properly for some without those, for some it doesn't.

Have you guys tried installing them?
