Inappropriate Japanese texts for Suspend granted by Taigam, Master Opportunist
Inappropriate Japanese texts for Suspend granted by Taigam, Master Opportunist
Taigam, Master Opportunist can exile a spell and grant Suspend. If it happens when you are playing under the Japanese locale, you see inappropriate texts for the granted Suspend's triggered abilities on further turns.
- At-the-beginning-of-your-upkeep trigger shows the Japanese keyword "待機" (for "Suspend") with parenthesized rubies like "待(たい)機(き)", which is inappropriate.
- When-the-last-time-counter-is-removed trigger shows a strange inapropriate text "wwwwwwwww" (nine w's) rather than the full rules text for the ability.
Steps to reproduce the bug
- Run MTG Arena under the Jaspanese Locale (Adjust Options > Graphics > Locale > 日本語 (Japanese). You may need to exit and restart the game for the change to take effect.)
- Play a game using a deck containing Taigam, Master Opportunist.
- Cast two spells in a turn when you have Taigam on the battlefield.
- Keep playing the game until the fourth of your further turns begins.

A video containing the following scenes:
1. In my turn, I had Taigam, Master Opportunist (好機を逃さぬ達人、テイガム) on the battlefield and cast Spectral Sailor (幽体の船乗り) then Drake Hatcher (ドレイクの孵卵者).
2. As my next turn begins, Taigam-granted Suspend on the exiled Drake Hatcher triggered, showing an inappropriate text.
3. Several turns later (actually the fourth of my turns after I cast Drake Hatcher), Suspend's abilities triggered in sequence, showing several inappropriate texts.
