Trample not working properly
I blocked a 9/9 Gitrog Monster that was granted trample from Godzilla with my 10/10 Elrond, Master of Healing. I had 9 or 10 health left before combat and somehow Gitrog got through and put me down to 1 health. Trample is defined as "excess damage," but no excess damage should have been dealt. This bug cost me the game.

The Gitrog Monster has deathtouch. With that ability, any amount of damage to a creature is considered lethal, even for combat damage assignment. So trample + deathtouch gets through every blocker with just one damage assigned to each. The rest can trample over.
