Grond, The Gatebreaker: Incorrect Trample Calculations
Hi,
While playing in the LOTR Premier Draft event I lost a game due to the MTGa system computing trample incorrectly.
In the first instance, I blocked the 5/5 artifact creature with my 1/4 Mordor Trebuchet. I should have taken 1 damage from that s attack, yet I was assigned 4 damage.
In the second instance, I blocked the 5/5 Grond with my 2/2 Mauhur, Uruk-Hai Captain. I should have received 3 damage from this attack, but again I received 4 damage.
It looks like Grond is only regarding 1 toughness from blockers and ignoring the rest.
Please resolve this issue and compensate me for this loss as this occurred during a premier draft game.

This sounds like Grond also had deathtouch. Deathtouch and trample is a potent combination, that allows the attacker to trample over any blockers for just 1 damage assigned to each. Because deathtouch is taken into consideration when assigning combat damage, and any amount of damage from a source with deathtouch is considered lethal.
