Bot match
Playing a bot match. It was the bots turn. Stuck on initial phase. Kept saying "hmm...". Game wasn't frozen as I could stick click everything on the screen. Server status page says everything operational. Using android. Had to concede the match to get off screen.

Patchnotes said it was being fixed. Had no issues since then.

Sometimes, I like to see how powerful I can get playing against a bot, just for a change of pace. The most recent update changed the way the bot responds to this. It used to just keep trying, but recently it will stop and just keep saying "Hmm ..." over and over again on its turn and then the match eventually ends with me conceding (even though it's not my turn). I would love it if I could just keep building my army sometimes without attacking until I finally do in one huge turn at the end.

Same thing happens to me on windows laptop and ipad. Both frustrating and ridiculous. Can Wizards not handle IT, server space or what? Im a long time MTG player and this is their 2nd or 3rd try at digital game play and none of it is "free". Invest time and $ into this game to end like that?

Significant number of creatures nothing. As soon as the bot doesn't have any "good" moves left it gets bogged down. I do not understand why they tried to change the bot from what it was.

Sometimes it eventually unfreezes, sometimes not

This bug existed before, but since last update it happens pretty much every long game, very annoying.

Hello,
Thank you for the suggestion but the Technical Troubleshooting is not helpful here. This happens lately in almost all the games against Sparky and on all platforms. It already feels like Sparky is programmed to stall.
Kind regards

I often use boot match mode to test new deck ideas. After the last update, Spark has been freezing during gameplay. And this has happened very often. I have to abandon the game and try again. This is frustrating. Please fix this!

Same thing since upate. After a while came just conceds. Yes I would like a few harder decks with the bot or a little more of a challenge but I'll take the basic bot with its 40 lands over whatever this update did. I just want to test a few decks and have fun.

This happens to me almost every game, usually in the main phase of sparky's 7th or 8th turn since the WOE update.

Against Red Deck, on Sparky's turn. -

I am also seeing this since this week (since the WOE release) ,but only with a specific set of cards: usually Dennick, Pious Apprentice, Invasion of Segovia and Sungold Sentinel on my side of the Battlefield.
In one case the game crashed, in another the bot apparently conceded or lost.
Attached logs. -

It's gotten to the point that it is happening with every single bot match now. Are they ever going to bother acknowledging this?

Bug - Bot stuck on "hmm..." forever when trying to test game mechanics after Wilds of Eldraine release. I tried twice to test some game mechanics and both times I had not got all the pieces into play to see how they interact and the bot gets stuck it's turn and it gets stuck saying "hmm..." over and over, and it only looks at my permanents over and over and over. I sat their for 5 minutes the first time before I conceded and started a new match, which ended up in the same situation, not all the pieces to test not in play yet and the bot got stuff repeatedly saying "hmm..." and the second time I waited for 15 minutes before I conceded again. I could not even scry while I waited for the bot to do something. On the scry note, why can't I scry at my choosing during an opponents turn? I literally cannot scry at all on opponents turn UNTIL my opponent takes an action.
I have supplied 2 log files and they were captured 12 minutes apart while I waited for the bot to do something other than "hmm..."
