  1. alchemy

    It's being said 1000 times over here, but simply upvoting others is not enough. I thought Alchemy was a joke when announced and said "Oh well, I'll never play that." Now after it launches we learn that the card changes affect Historic with no option to turn it off.

    Absolutely unacceptable.

    I will not play Arena again until this change is reverted.

  2. Players with excessive triggers on the stack will cause the opponent to start using timeouts and eventually lose

    Any deck that has an infinite combo that puts triggers on the stack can cause this bug.

    1.   Give us the steps to reproduce the bug
      

      Create an infinite loop of a flavor of your choosing. Scute, Oak... Whatever floats your boat.

    2.   Note which platform you’re using (PC, Mac, Android, or iOS)
      

      PC, but this is across all platforms.

    3.   Enter the actual results you’re experiencing
      

      After opponent puts an absurd number of triggers on the stack, eventually they use all of their timeouts and the game goes into an auto-resolve situation where the game will mandatorily choose a response to occur…

  3. Permanent Pauper Historic Format!

    Many of us look forward to pauper events, but it's never enough. It would be awesome to be able to use our thousands of common wildcards to build pauper decks. Imagine being able to play pauper in free or ranked mode.

  4. Forcing alchemy

    Stop putting alchemy as the default for decks and playing. I dont want to play alchemy. I hate it, the implementation is awful and has pushed me to not even want to touch historic.

    On top of that I get put into alchemy que accidentally because y'all are trying to force it down our throats by putting it as the default deck building format and default que. I have never once wanted to play alchemy or make a deck for it.

    If your going to put that garbage into arena at least stop trying to force me to "try it…

  5. Alchemy makes me quit Arena

    I'm a long time magic player and have spent several thousands of dollars on this game but after yesterday's Alchemy announcement I am sorry to say that I am done playing constructed on Arena. You're losing me as a customer.

    I don't like the idea of digital cards changing so that they don't match the real world physical cards. This is a cognitive load that is unnecessary. Change the card name to something else if you're planning on rebalancing cards. Paper and the original digital version of the card should be in sync. I'm done with constructed on Arena. I'm…

  6. No Alchemy WHY?

    William Gaston
    Dec 10, 2021, 11:51 AM PST

    Alchemy is a terrible decision, and I hate it beyond words. You just have a major championship in Historic, people get excited about the format then you wreck it by introducing Alchemy cards and changes to nerf or boost cards that affect cards we already spent wildcards on for historic. The Alchemy cards should only be played in Alchemy, I don't think they should exist at all....especially if you want people to be able to go back and forth between MTG arena and paper MTG. I've been playing this game off an…

  7. freezes after timer

    The game shortly says reconnecting.
    Then the timer runs out and the game is stuck!
    Not like completely frozen, because the animation og the pet keeps going smooth, and i can open the menu, but the game does not continue to pass on the turn after the timer runs out.

  8. Report Function for roping intentionally

    Countless times in my experience (and I'm sure thousands of others experiences) has the opponent decided that they are losing the match or that it is not going their way. No one is a stranger to flooding out, getting mana screwed, or simply not finding the answers that your deck can provide and I understand this frustration; it is simply in the nature of a game where you draw cards at random and sometimes it sucks. Taking the intentional action of AFK'ing or simply waiting for all of your ropes or accumulated time-outs in spite of this frustration is, however,…

    Playing on iOS iPad

    Opponent attacks, I declare blockers, ollenbock escort and another creature. Before damage I want to sac the ollenbock escort to pump the other creature. I am not given the option to sac the ollenbock escort and both my creatures die.

  14. Server issues

    Prioritize server-related issues. Fix refresh issues when temporarily losing connection to the server (higher than stated planeswalker loyalty, lands remaining untapped, dead creatures remaining on the field, spell stuck in stack display, etc. ). Buy new, more efficient servers, and recruit developers. Feasible given this year's record profits.

    Stuck on Retrieving Asset Manifest screen
    Tried uninstalling/reinstalling. Playing on Pixel 4A. Never encountered this before but it seems many others have on Macs.

    1. Start game
    2. Android - Pixel 4A phone
    3. Stuck on the initial "Retrieving Asset Manifest" screen for a very long time until it says "Error Updating Data, Please check your connection and try again". ( I was able to download other things with this same connection, on the same device)
    4. Should not be stuck on this screen.

  16. Provide an eternal format for MTGA

    I am not opposed to Alchemy or Historic being a unique digital only format, but an eternal format where cards are unchanged needs to be implemented on Arena. Pioneer and/or Modern being the most logical. It could even be another unique format (Pioneer plus fetch lands because shuffling isn’t an issue in digital) like Historic was prior to the digital only cards. But consistency with paper cards and allowing cards to live on post-standard rotation is something that a significant portion of the player base wants, and I believe is necessary for the long-term health of MTGA.

  17. Two Headed Giant

    Something which my friend and I have repeatedly lamented is the lack of sufficient multiplayer options in Magic Arena. Currently Arena offers the capability to play private 1v1s as the only direct method of enjoying the game communally. While we do discuss our decks and current matches together, the lack of a format such as Two Headed Giant certainly hinders the ability to play the game cooperatively. Seeing as how this feature was present in Arena's predecessor Magic Duels, as well as the prior 2012/2013/2014 Duels of the Planeswalkers games, it makes Arena's lack of 2HG or private free for…

  19. Alchemy

    I can't see why we need another format, that is also messing with existing formats. This bombardment with new cards (and lame digitalonly mechanics) is becoming more and more tedious.
    Alchemy is just a slap in the face of every enfranchised player, as it implies that you are going to care even less about quality carddesigns.
    That leads to a situation where if Standard is in a good place,
    Alchemy will only set itself apart from standard by the new (*******) cards you shoved into it and if standard is in a bad place and needs to be changed you…

    Alchemy is garbage. I have deleted my clients and won't be reinstalling them until this change is rolled back or I am refunded every cent I've ever spent on this game.
