Brawl - Ashaya - Losing abilities
I had enchanted Ashaya with Imprisoned in the Moon. Opponent had 1 creature in play which was enchanted with Eaten By Piranhas. Opponent had no other creatures in play under their control and all lands were tapped. Ashaya was now a non-basic land and had lost all other abilities, totally greyed out.
Go to opponent's turn
Opponent plays a Scute Swarm, and the game reacts as though Scute Swarm was a Forest and triggered itself. Opponent then plays Kona and Scute Swarm reacts again as if Kona was a Forest.
Ashaya is greyed out before these new creature cards are played. Her ability is supposed to be canceled out until the enchantment is removed. This is the point where some other player called Rezzahan#77802 will chime in about layers. I have no idea what these layers are, I only know that when the card is grey'd out it's ongoing abilities are supposed to be negated. So please either fix this bug or explain in non-layer terms why the electronic and paper game are intended to ignore grey-d out ability boxes.

Not as bug. Ability loss does not work against static abilities that grant card types. Because type changes (layer 4) are applied before abilities are lost (layer 6). And once an ability starts to apply, it gtets to apply fully in all subsequent layers if it has effects there. Even if the ability is lost before geting to those layers.
