Mouse clicks are unreliable on Mac
I've installed Arena on two different Macs, and they’re both having the same issue: mouse interaction is very unreliable. Clicking on things doesn’t always work — I’ll often have to click a button or a card multiple times to get it to register, but then occasionally it’ll work fine on the first try. This is true throughout the interface — from the home screen to in-game actions (for example, when clicking the “Play” button on the home screen, I routinely needed to click at least three times to get the blade to open). Dragging cards has also been very fickle, whether when scrying, mulliganing, or playing from my hand.
The issue seems to be worse when the interface is larger; lowering the game resolution so the window became smaller felt like it helped a bit, though it’s still unreliable (and I’d like to play fullscreen/as large as possible).
System details: One is a 27-inch iMac (2019), the other is a 15-inch MacBook Pro (2013). The iMac is using the standard wireless Magic Mouse, the MBP is using the built-in trackpad. The clicking/dragging issues feel the same on both machines.
P.S. Thanks to the dev team who worked hard to make the Mac version, I'm so excited it's finally here!

I have the exact same issue. The Mac client is unusable at its current state :-/

Not only are mouse clicks unreliable, but the pointer alignment is off. At the bottom of the screen, I have to be slightly lower than the button to click it, at the tope of the screen I have to be slightly higher. I tried changing the graphics settings but it occurs with different resolutions and quality. Taking the application out of full screen does resolve the problem, but as you can see from the screenshot, it's not the optimal viewing experience.

I just tried playing on Mac for the first time tonight and gave up immediately. I couldn't even move one card to mulligan. It sounds like it affects all mice but just in case it's helpful I was using the Logitech MX Master 3 mouse connected wirelessly to a Mac Mini 2018.

Voting up so this can be resolved soon.
I have been playing but at the expense of hammering my wireless mouse left click. -

I find if you 'long click' (like click, hold for 1 second then let go), it wokrs a bit more reliably.
However you don't need to do this in any other apps. -

I have also noted this issue.
It does not seem reliable on either the trackpad or external mouse -
