Title: MTG Arena stuck searching for opponent – Unable to start matches
Since November 3, 2026, I have been unable to play any matches in MTG Arena.
The game gets stuck indefinitely on the matchmaking screen ("Waiting for Opponent" / "Searching for Opponent").
Steps to reproduce:
- Open MTG Arena on Windows PC.
- Select any game mode.
- Click Play.
- The game searches for an opponent indefinitely without finding one.
Expected result: The game should find an opponent and start the match.
Actual result: Matchmaking continues indefinitely. Restarting the game does not solve the problem.
I have also restarted my computer and checked my internet connection. The issue persists.
This problem has prevented me from playing since yesterday.
Please investigate this matchmaking issue.
Platform: Windows PC.
