Each Leeching Sliver trigger does damage equal to number of attacking slivers, instead of just 1. (Exponential damage).
Issue:
When attacking with Leeching Sliver, it's supposed to deal 1 damage per attacking sliver. For example, if I attack with 4 slivers, it should deal 4 damage, one per trigger. However, currently, each trigger deals damage equal to the number of attacking slivers. So, if I attack with 4 slivers, it's dealing 16 damage(!!).
Platform: Windows.
Workaround: Don't play leeching sliver until it's fixed because I don't wanna be banned, lol.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Enter a game with a deck of slivers that includes Leeching Sliver.
2. During the game, attack with multiple slivers while Leeching Sliver is on the battlefield.
Expected result:
Each trigger of Leeching Sliver's ability does 1 damage.
Actual result:
Each trigger of Leeching Sliver's ability does damage equal to the number of attacking slivers.
Additionally, bug reports really shouldn't be forced to be made public, as people can search the forum for exploits before it's patched. Not a great move.
Marked as critical because this can cause easy game-winning turns with very little effort.

Is there anything being done about this? I cant find anything anywhere about it other than all these bug reports that i haven't seen anyone mention if its being addressed. its become so much of a nuisance that any time I see it hit the board its usually game that turn even though without the bug it wouldn't even be close. I've been seeing more and more people exploiting it and it needs to be addressed.

Thanks for reporting this! I was trying to figure out how I won a game when, by my calculations, my opponent should have had 3 life left. (I'd have won the next turn, so I didn't feel *too* bad about it, but I was concerned that I'd misunderstood something about the play.) Nope. Just a bug. But one I hope they fix soon!

just stumbled on this bug myself, not that i'm going to complain about slivers being playable, but this seems a bit unfair :p

Right now I'm decimating opponents with Leeching Sliver, so have stopped playing my Sliver deck. This is clearly broken

Slight correction. Every time I say Leeching Sliver "does damage", what's actually happening is the player is losing life.

This happened to me as well, few minutes ago. I think this is a bug according the description of Leeching Sliver's card text... it's unbelieveble, I had a thing like 27 health and with an attack with 5-6 slivers I got down to -2 without even having them to finalize the combat phase and hit me... WOTC? HELLO?

Please find attached a video of the bug.
Played in a friendly match with my friend's consent and after all daily quests were already achieved legitimately.
