"Stop on my upkeep and draw step" failed on an extra turn
Playing an Arena EoE quick draft on a PC. My opponent had milled me to zero cards with Space Time Anomaly, but in my upkeep I played Nexus of Fate, shuffled it into my library and drew it again. Then I attacked with all my creatures and made sure to check off "stop at my upkeep" again. But after untapping I lost immediately anyway.
My expectation was to cast Nexus of Fate on every upkeep until my creatures brought in the win.
The attached image is a screen shot from after I lost.
The bug is either with Nexus of Fate or in the way Arena handles the "stop at my upkeep" check mark.
I have not tested any work-arounds, but I will try switching to full control [Ctrl] the next time I need a stop on my upkeep instead.

You are not alone. There is known non-rules-conformant (bugged) behavior on Arena whenever playing from a 0 card library.
This has been present in Arena for several patches (5?). So far, WotC has failed to fix it or even publicly address this issue.
Given the current implementation, Arena should automatically introduce the stop that you tried to manually engage, but fails to do so and fails to recognize when it's manually set too.
