Disable enemy card hovering
Do you approve of the annoyance caused by an opponent constantly swirling there mouse over cards and highlighting / flashing / whatever you call it?
The feature has no value in the game.
Please add a switch to DISABLE MOUSE OVER FUNCTION that causes card animation.

The flashing effect is genuinely unbearable when an opponent does it all the time please add a way to disable this feature

The first time I have played arena on PC in years, and my first game back my opponent is highlighting every card in play constantly. It gave me a migraine. Please make it so you can disable this feature

4 years later and you still can't turn off hover, opponents still do the hover nonsense to troll while waiting out the clock. WOTC seems like they don't give a f#ck.

This effect is beyond irritating. Please disable this effect or add an option to disable it. The annoying thing is, I know this would only take a couple of hours at most to implement an option to disable it.

Please add this!!!! It totally breaks concentration! You try to think and all you see is this ANNOYING flashing of cards and i have to look away from my screen sometimes, but i have to look again, because i have to know the cards etc. What an absolute USELESS feature, get rid of it or at least give us an option to disable it!

Stupid feature, just went up against my first opponent to spam it. If I see it a second time I'm just going to uninstall.

Every single player wants this, but this is especially ******* autistic people like myself. I literally log into arena every couple months waiting for this to be fixed, and log back out each time. I WILL NOT PLAY YOUR GAME UNTIL YOU MAKE IT LESS ABLEIST!

It makes me anxious, that opponent is staring on my cards 20 times a turn. In tabletop play, this would be banished as a waisting time. I know it is digital game, but I should have to be able to turn off this "blinking" animation, which have no use other than play "mental" games. Just get rid of it or allow us to cancel this animation.

Please add this, I find this feature soo distracting, I would rather not know what my opponent is looking at than get flashed around all the time when I'm trying to figure out my own plays. It's super distracting.
At the very least, hide the enemy highlighting when they do not have priority. Anything would be better than what it is now.

I like seeing when my opponent is looking at my cards but when someone is using the highlight to intentionally lag me its just not ok.
This should be considered cheating, my computer runs games like monster hunter world so its not like I have a bad system but yet they still manage to lag me by causing too many highlight inputs.
they should be penalized... this has been a problem at least since magic the gathering online.
As for the value of the feature. it lets me know when the opponent is paying attention to what im playing and when they arent. like theres been times I played an oath sword that made it so I wouldnt lose when my life dropped below 0.
I could tell they were confused and unsure why I wasnt losing because they checked a lot of my cards..... most of them, except the oath card.
it gives me insight into the psychology of my opponent, insight into what my opponent is seeing. Critical insight that helps me better strategize.
that same time with the oath card, the game ended when I hit -50 and im pretty sure its because they did something... allowing to identify they are a cheater as well.
There is absolutely value in the feature. just, it needs to be tweeked a little to prevent abuse. -

Playing on mobile especially, my app grinds to a halt when my opponent starts doing this and it times me out. I try to select game actions and my fuse keeps burning away. It's infuriating and has cost me multiple games.

Get rid of hovering highlight or option to turn off - annoying, distracting and gives away strategic info for nonreason

It also can stop game actions causing you to time out. I just lost a match due to opponent constantly mousing over my cards
