Insidious Roots is Bugged on MTGA
Insidious roots is completely broken - it's supposed to put creatures into play with summoning sickness, like any other spell, but for some reason on MTGA the plants it creates do NOT have summoning sickness, which makes it possible to exploit the triggers from cards like Ichor Drinker, Placid Rotttentail, etc. Needs to make the plant tokens have summoning sickness unless there is an effect giving them haste.

I found a second bug, it's allowed in decks.

Thanks to @Sparks for answering my dumbfounded statement. I just versed an individual that played an insidious roots deck. In the final turn, op tapped out to play tyvar, retrieve a Haywire Mite, and then used a plant token (that I thought had summoning sickness) to trip the mite's ability and blast a zoetic glyph off of one of my fliers.
I was so salty thinking he manipulated a bug with insidious roots, but now I'm just shaking my head that tyvar combos with mana dorks (still gross conceptually)

Most decks play Tyvar which lets creatures activate abilities as if they had haste.
