Won't update (and won't load) on IPv6
Magic: Arena won't connect to the update server (and therefore won't run) while IPv6 is activated.
Load screen terminates at "Retrieving asset manifest" with a connection error.
Turning off IPv6 in Windows Networking settings resolves the issue, starts as normal.

I experience this after an update ever so often, and it's happening now. I can only use the workaround above on my PC to play, not my Samsung/Android phone, but my wife's older Apple phone works on the same network.
