Has happened to my brother and i the last several times we tried to do a direct challenge in historic brawl. Been an issue for a while now

Multiple friends and I cant play with one another because of this bug. Whats the point of playing Arena if I cant play with my friends. Please fix this.

Brother just started playing and loves it but we have been able to only play one game a day. Please fix as we would enjoy destroying each other with digital cards

the game has less sense without this feature. Fix this defect quickly please

The issue is with this useless new type of deck, Brawl with 40 cards?? you guys doesnt have a beta server to try things before launch with so many bugs?

My bf and I have been playing this game together for years, with a few occasional difficulties joining a direct match, but usually trying a different method of joining fixes it. We are back to playing after several months hiatus, and now nothing works. We’ve been troubleshooting for 2 hours, he’s restarted his iPad, updated the app, tried from his iPhone, everything, and he still gets the network error when we try a direct match. We had no idea this was such a long-standing issue. We planned on playing nonstop these next couple months throughout this holiday season while we have so much time off, and instead looks like we won’t be playing at all if this isn’t fixed any time soon. :( And I guess gifting each other packs & cometics for Christmas is out.

My friends and I exclusively play on MTG Arena to play this, but we might just swap to Spelltable if this keeps up

Theres no multiplayer on arena either so without being able to play all of the decks we want with the new cards theres no incentive to buy anything or spend time in the game anymore.

Seriously didn't even know this was a thing until this week. Now I can't play with m my wife who I have played together with for years on the client. Come on guys, please fix this.

It's been at least 2 updates since I posted my original ticket and the problem persists

It's really frustrating

Same problem here. How soon should we expect a fix?

I just started playing magic a few weeks ago and I can't even have a friendly match with my friend bc of this bug. After doing some research I found out that this has been an old recurring bug. I am so disappointed and frustrated with this.

P.S I have an alt account and it works just find on my alt account but not my main account... Why is this even a thing?

We haven't been able to brawl sense the last update. Before the update we had no issues because we would often play PC to PC or PC to mobile.

This is taking a lot of fun out of the Online verison of MTG. I imagine lots of people feel the same way because we all spend money on the decks and passes, etc.

Wizards we need you to fix this <3

Same issue - can't play against friends. Absolutely wild that this isn't a bug that was fixed immediately.

they need to fix this already. Brawl hasn't worked on mobile for months. one of us will have to challenge from a laptop. now Brawl isn't working when we're both on desktop.

This is effecting me as well. I cannot play against my brother and we both just got into MTG together a few days ago :(

Same issue: impossible to play against a friend in the last THREE days!

We've experienced this problem not only after the update but from time to time the last few months. It's also been an issue while trying historic brawl. I would have thought that this issue would have been solved already with all the players experiencing this.

Same issue: impossible to play against a friend in the last THREE days!

It is absolutely ridiculous that this bug has been present for as long as it has. I want to test with friends for the upcoming RCQ season and it is literally impossible to do so on Arena.

Yea mine says unable to submit deck. Something along those lines.
