The game does not properly let you respond to spells. I cast a Living End and could've counterspelled but game did not allow. BROKEN GAME
I played a Living End with Violent Outburst. Opponent lets Violent Outburst resolve, Living End goes onto the stack. Opponent casts Reprieve. I have Force of Negation in hand with blue cards to discard. I am not given an opportunity to play my counterspell.
This game does not function properly. This should not have happened. The game does not properly interpret game mechanics. The game designers have obviously not tested this. The game designers are ruining the game. This is not how the game is supposed to work. I am not just mad because someone played a Reprieve and I lost. I'm mad because I was denied an opportunity to actually play and respond using what was in my hand because the game devs did not properly code the stack interactions in the first place. This is unacceptable. I have spent hundreds of dollars on this game. It should at least work properly. I would demand a refund of my purchases if it was at all possible because now, I do not trust the game engine to allow for me to make the proper plays without permanently turning on the slow-play functionality, which makes games tedious and slow. This game is terrible. I will be re-editing my steam review to reflect my interactions with the game.
I have hit Mythic in every season. I know what I'm talking about.

"IF IT'S NOT YOUR TURN, you may exile a blue card from your hand rather than pay this spell's mana cost."
It probably was your turn, so the alternative cost was not available to you.
