Skipped me being able to cast an instant in a ranked match
I was in a long game where I was losing. Then I drew the land I needed for fumigate and undying malice. I meant to target sepheroth fabled soldier. With the undying. But fumigate went off with out a. Chance to respond to it. despite having a dual black/white land up. My turn instantly ended and my opponent reanimated him against me. I cast the undying with my free mana to show the game goofed. Then quite because who wants to play a game that doesn't follow its own rules. I went to copy theog and give it to wizards to work on a patch. But. The report function just doesn't seem to exist or requires 3rdparty applications to do... Which seems dumb. That or it's not simple enough to make reporting glitches/ exploites initiative.

Arena uses the tournament shortcut of pasing priority when you put something on the stack, unless you explicitly state otherwise. To respond to your own spells and abilities, you have to enter Full Control BEFORE casting the spell or activating the ability you want to respond to.
But that is besides the point really. Why did you not just cast the Undying Malice first, let it resolve, and THEN cast your Fumigate? Would have had the exact same intended result, and any interaction an opponent could throw into that sequence would also have disrupted your original approach.
