I think I just quit the game cause of this card. This is an insane thing to add to the game and it makes it entirely not fun to play.

wont be playing arena again until this card is out of standard. Super boring to deal with, have more entertaining games to play otherwise.

You already know.. 6 mana cost auto-win because it forces people to quit.. this is NOT fun and isn't strategic. This combo should be banned or Exhalted Deeds should not be able to target lands, even if they are changelings.. just change the wording of the card to "target non-land angel" and it's fixed. I thought this combination was already banned from standard play, but as it just happened to me this is obviously not the case.
I refused to "lose" by that combo alone, so I did not resign from the match and continued gathering dragons, draws, and treasure tokens until the "game ended unexpectedly" and gave us a draw.. c'mon.. even the software of the app is telling you this shouldn't be a thing. If this is the way standard is to be played, you're losing players who otherwise would love your game and have for over 20 years without such cheap and unfair combinations being played in Standard format no less..

Tell me how this is in any way ok? Book of exalted deeds is a completely broken card with Faceless Haven. This combo and other completely broken cards make this game a total drag to play and if Wizards doesn't fix these issues then I guess they won't miss all the people who USED to play Magic...Who knows, maybe they don't want customers anymore.

WoTC. This card is so stupid. Who ever designed this card shouldn’t be designing cards…. I played two games today and one game ended with me losing 168 HP to -408 HP due to Faceless Haven combo with Exalted can’t lose. Then in another game I had same thing but I used cleansing wildfire but it ended in a draw. So literally there is no way to win against this card which is not how games are supposed to work. No fun. Moving back to YuGiOh/Flesh n Blood.

Here, too. This is a Standard Ranked best-of-one match in November 2021.

I also just had the Combo with faceless haven happen to me in standard which is a best of 1 format. This card is supposed to be banned in this format, and should be banned in general in my opinion. WOTC please fix this and ban the card correctly and completely as it creates a toxic and frustrating experience.

Just played a game where the scumbag put it on his land so that I couldn't win and eventually wore me down. Not gonna bother with ranked if scummy people can do that kind of stuff. This card needs to be banned.

The Book of Exalted Deeds was banned in Standard 2022, which no longer exists as a format. It is not banned in Standard, and never has been.

Book of Exalted Deeds is somehow not banned when it's supposed to be. Opponent knew and was clearly intentionally abusing a bug.
