yes this is extremely annoying, i hate losing my timer while the opponent spells trigger, when i already hit auto pass. shift enter might help but usually if i do that i end up losing cuz of it. but the game needs to give you some "free" seconds to click resolve of your opponents **** without it affecting your actual game timer.. most of this could be solve if they would use AUTOYIELDING like the way that MTGO does! make the mtga programmers play mtgo!

Just had this issue today, opponent had a hundred scute triggers as well as the giant that gets a counter every time a scute enters, I hit resolve all *and* I had no mana and nothing I could play, my timer came up and it started using my time extensions. Then I my turn it already had my timer going, so I had about four seconds to do my turn or I was worried it would auto-pass. Somehow it looks like Arena got behind on my end and so while I was watching a couple hundred triggers the game had already moved on to my turn without me being able to see it or do anything. Ended up losing because I had to rush the turn. Meanwhile during all their triggers they never had a timer get near running out. Extremely frustrating that this has evidently been going on and still isn't fixed.

Bump, still an issue.

Repro:
Demonstrate mostly easily versus the current Scute Swarm decks.

Let opponent get a pile of triggers, tap all lands and and hit respond to all so you're 'F6d'. Watch both game clocks. Opponent won't lose any time on their clock, but you will lose 1-2 seconds per each of their triggers! Even though you cannot physically do anything quicker and you've auto passed all priority steps.

[Also note how ridiculous it is that when they have 40 scute swarm triggers you make us sit through all 40 of them and the game doesn't batch them into a single big trigger and just plop the token stack onto the board - just ask players IF and when they want to intercede in the trigger stack - if they don't, then handle all the triggers together].

This is abusable and it will cost people matches when the clock is tight.

my timer runs down while opponent's 100+ triggers of Scute Swarm are resolving

This is still happening in the current version of the game. It's abusable and people are exploiting it to run down the clock when they aren't otherwise capable of actually winning the game. Or at least, maybe you'll win with 20 seconds remaining on turn 50 an hour and a half later, but they're counting on you conceding before that.

Previously, Resolve All quickly and efficiently ran through all the triggers. As of earlier this year, it slowed to a crawl when handling even rudimentary triggers. When players hit 'resolve all' scale the speed of the animations, effects, etc etc depending on how many triggers there are. And you can handle them all en masse as long as you go through and check in advance whether the triggers will actually cause any new triggers. A digital game shouldn't be MORE clunky than handling hundreds of triggers than paper but currently it is!

This is happening to me in my current game. Resolve all, but apparently it's my timer ticking down. Also my opponent has over 2000 triggers on stack so I think we may have broken the server lol...nothing is responding for minutes at a time.

Bump for this. Never noticed before this update, however Arena is now pretty slow at resolving triggers when there's dozens of them on the stack. Too slow to be honest.

At any rate, when one or both players have hit 'resolve all' there's no way they should be losing clock for Arena's server latency.

I probably lost a few minutes in the game from the attached screenshot since I was trying to go wide versus 'Revenge of the Ravens', and every attack step generated a few dozen triggers *for my opponent*, but my clock was ticking down while Arena resolved them one-by-one.

I am sure that players are losing matches to this stuff, as it was, I might have ended up losing the next game to time but my opponent conceded to spare us both the agony.
