Stuck in Match-making queue "Waiting for opponent"
I was attempting to queue up for a Competitive Brawl match. The queue was taking a long time to find an opponent, but the "cancel" button was no longer on-screen. I ALT+F4 to force close MTG arena, re-opened MTG arena and was immediately back in the match-making queue with the message "Waiting for opponent" displayed. I force closed the game again waited about 15 minutes, re-opened MTG arena and I was still stuck in the match-making queue.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Start Competitive Brawl matchmaking
2. Alt+F4 to force close MTG arena while in matchmaking queue
3. Relaunch MTG arena
4. Still stuck in matchmaking queue "waiting for opponent"

Same. Had been playing several Standard Brawl games and then one of them kicked me into this infinite queue with no cancel button. Now cannot get to anything but the Phyrexian loading screen even after multiple logouts, on both iPad and Windows.

I fixed the issue, you must use the sign out of everywhere and also wait a few hours before logging in again, hopes this helps everyone dealing with this annoying issue

Same here. It has been some 8 hrs stuck already. Tried logging in on the cellphone, same thing. Tried logging out of all plataforms on the Wizards website and it didnt work. Changed my password to force my account comming back to the main page and it didnt work. Still stuck. Hope they realise the problem soon.
