Approach of the Second Sun wins the game on first cast
My opponent won the game by casting Approach of the Second Sun but they had only cast it once. He owned a second copy in exile so I'm assuming that's what was misinterpreted as the first cast.
This is what specifically happened. Opponent had a copy of Approach on hand at the beginning of the game. I made them discard it by casting Thought Erasure. They later on cast Uro by escaping him from the graveyard. One of the cards exiled by Uro was the first copy of Approach. They later on drew another copy of Approach, cast it and won the game on the spot.

same thing just happened to me
*and* this loser had the nerve to rope me....
please ban this card if you can't even get it to work properly!!!1st image we see a completely empty Exile Pile, and theyre playing a Dimir Color Coded Commander. Key to the Archive giving them the only possible use of White mana......(a whole other topic of why this card should be banned)
2nd image is their graveyard
They never possibly cast AotSS before, so this being their first time casting it (from hand too!! Key puts it in their HAND), they should NOT have won the match.....
It's so terribly sad this og post is over 3 years old now, and these negligent employees refuse to fix the thing that's broken Magic the past few years: Alchemy cards.
PLEASE RESPOND OR FIX
Very disappointing -

Lost two times because of this bug!
Opponent just cast Approach once and win the game instantly. No second copy anywhere. Not in a graveyard nor in exile. Not copying spells nothing like what.

My opponent cast Approach the Second Sun for the first time in the game, and then the game ended with a loss. If it had been the second cast, it would have been revealed in their deck as the next draw.

I had the same thing happen. I used Thoughtseize to dump the first Approach of the second sun into the graveyard without being played. He then searched using Narset, found approach of the second sun and then played it and won on the first cast.
This is ridiculous. If you can't trust the win conditions what can you trust?!

I lost twice on Arena cube because of this. I'm not convinced.
