Liliana of the Veil ultimate UI
Repro: Ultimate Liliana of the Veil, especially if opponent has a pile of tapped lands.
Platform: Android, although I suspect all mobile clients would suffer this problem.
Results: Every permanent has a selector for either pile "1" or pile "2", but for permanents stacked on top of each other such as lands, these are difficult to click, hard to read, and impossible to associate with a specific permanent. This impacts gameplay as you cannot effectively put opponents off a specific color or otherwise create the best/worst pile.
Expected results: Ultimate should either automatically spread out all permanents or utilize a version of e.g. Atris, Oracle of Half Truth's UI to separate piles (this may not be feasible with taplands).
No screenshot taken, unfortunately.
Workaround: Potentially can be worked around on Desktop, although I suspect large piles of creatures or lands might still have issues there as well.

Liliana of the veil -6 makes impossible to make piles, due to all cards get mashed up together so it's imposible to differenciate one or another.
I had tried this several times and it's always the same problem

Experiencing a similar issue on my iPad just now.

Honestly, when I read about how they did it I already had strong doubts it will be convenient but this is just ridiculously bad.
There got to be a better way - drag and drop to two different zones in a browser, or as described above - click to select permanents and the selected permanents go into one group, all the other into the other. -

Whenever an opponent plays her ultimate ability, I am unable to select a pile and thus have to concede. This has happened to me 3 out of 3 times.

I’m having the same issue, screenshot here, I was unable to pick a pile and the result was my timers being run out and all permanent cards being destroyed

I understand that developing a UI/UX for Liliana of the Veil's -6 is challenging, because it involves selecting a large, variable number of cards and separating them in two piles. However, I believe I have a more effective method than the one currently used that is both more intuitive for the user and reduces clicking by at least 50%, as well as already being implemented in client.
The interface for Yorion, Sky Nomad is remarkably similar to the Lili Ult in many ways. You select a group of permanents and separate them into two piles: those that get exiled and those that don't! Now there are some differences, namely that you can select lands and that you select your opponent's cards, not yours, but these are minor adjustments. The UI effects already exist.
To eliminate any chance of confusion, the reminder text should be:
"Select the cards to go in Pile 1.
(The rest go into Pile 2.)"This method allows players to select/deselect cards by simply clicking on/highlighting them, which is far more intuitive with the rest of the client! Hopefully you agree that this is more optimal, and adopt it! Thank you for your time!
