Add EDH or Multiplayer confrontation
If possible add EDH (Commander) model to the Arena plz. This is a very interesting model because it is perfect for playing with friends. Same, can 2v2 or multiplayer confrontation modes be added? If it is not convenient to be a public event, can you add this feature to a private challenge? I have many friends who choose to give up MTGA because MTGA does not support multiplayer games although they are interested in MTG

Automate infinite loops
Arena really needs a better way of dealing with loops. Infinite combos are some of my favorite decks to play in paper. But Arena sucks all the fun out of it by having the combo take forever to execute after it’s assembled. There should be some way of demonstrating a loop and repeating it a few dozen times.
An example of a deck that demonstrates this can be found here:

Give Sparky Decks
I think it would be really cool to have the ability to give Sparky access to one of my decks for training. The basic ones Sparky chooses among get old fast, and she very quickly becomes obsolete. The only point of trying out my new decks against Sparky at this point is as a sanity check that I didn't go too off the rails with a new idea.
However, if, for example, I could have given Sparky my Dimir rogues deck during Zendikar Rising, she would have become a very useful training partner. I could try a new anti-Rogues deck…

Matchmaking sucks! I am tired of constant mirror matches
Matchmaking in Arena is unbalanced and unfair and most of all unfun. Constant mirror matches suck! Constantly playing against the same decks regardless of opponent sucks! please do true natural random matchmaking. skill based and deck strength matchmaking sucks and isn't fun.

Crash android
Nearly during every game the app crashes. I'm back in my homescreen and I have to reconnect. After restarting the app I'm back in the game 1 or 2 rounds later.
I already reinstalled the app. No changes.
The error occurred after the last update.

brawl ranked
Can we add a ranked version for brawl and historic brawl? I prefer this game mode and it makes me sad to see it's the only official mode that does not get a ranked version.

Sound not working
I have been playing arena on iOS since lunch without issue but just yesterday my sound completely stopped working in the app and I have no idea why. I have restarted my phone and I have read that others who have had this same issue have had little to no luck even when deleting And reinstalling the app. I tend to rely on the sound for certain cues so this is essentially unplayable for me now. I will try reinstalling the app but if that does not work what is the next step?? It is not my phone because my…

"did you have fun in the match" dialog should always be available
You should always be able to access the "did you have fun in the match" dialog if you want to report that a particular match was fun or unfun. The periodic polling is nice and should probably continue but it doesn't capture all instances of unfun matches nor does it give people a chance to recognize which matches were good. I wouldn't explicitly prompt people most of the time but there should be a button you can push to report a match either way.

Ban exquisite blood
Why hasen't this card been banned? This card in combination with a card that has 'whenever you gain life opponent loses that much life' creates an infinite loop that stops when your life total is zero. Infinite loops shouldn't be part of this game that is just lame.

Sparky needs upgrade, difficulty levels, and more
I play Sparky to get a feel for my decks, but the vs-AI mode could be a fun, more challenging aspect to Arena. There is really a lot of untapped potential here. Here are some thoughts.
- Give Sparky more recent cards. Maybe from the recent beginner decks. The cards feel underpowered and dated. It just isn’t challenging playing with the most recent cards against Sparky’s older sets. I have noticed that the programming only allows it to play cards that have direct interactions (for example, Pacifism on one of my creatures). It is not programmed to play cards with activated…

WHY do you CHEAT your PLAYERS
It’s been officially addressed that opening hands are manipulated.
This is cheating by any standard.
It’s been officially addressed that matchmaking is manipulated by deck content.
This is cheating by any standard.
WHY do you CHEAT your PLAYERS?
The wonderful game of Magic: The Gathering has been turned into this obnoxious exercise in manipulated, cheating corporate greed called Magic: The Gathering Arena.
It is not Magic: The Gathering.
I am done with it.

Sportsmanship and leaving a losing game by timing out
Once it is apparent that a game is hopeless for one player, most players are civil and either concede, or quickly play through their turns to bring the game to an end.
But, I've experienced enough players that just walk away from their computer and let the game finish by timing out, that I've taken the time to write this note.
It is an awful game play experience watching the opponent's timer count down for 3+ minutes. Particularly when it is obvious they are not looking at how they could win (checking card text, looking the graveyards, etc.) and are…

Bugs get buried under general player gripes due to bugs & feedback being handled as a popularity contest
Gameplay bugs/issues need to be recorded independently from general feedback for application improvement. In the first place, voting for what to work on is ridiculous - you're not children; manage your own workflows and don't just outsource it to your player base.
Secondly, by storing these together gameplay bugs are forced to compete against UI improvements, which is nonsense. You're a mature, out-of-beta application. Fix your bugs! "I was issued a game loss due to a bug" shouldn't be competing (and losing by thousands of votes) against "something something shuffler algorithm." These are two totally separate concerns and the former…

Historic Brawl Forever
Historic Brawl is so much more fun than regular Brawl. The larger selection of cards makes it feel more like commander! It's a great way to use older cards other than just playing Historic matches.

too many players timing out of games
Too many players are abandoning games by annoyingly letting the timer run all the way down. I firmly suggest a system whereby a player gets three strikes: one strike per game abandonment by timeout. At three strikes, the player is suspended for 2 days, etc. At three suspensions, the player is suspended for a week. Something like that. There needs to be consequences for this, especially because some of it is malicious, but really all of it is a massive waste of time and it will cause player turnover (aka, fewer players around to participate, access products in the store,…

Allow Sparky to use already built deck that we own
Would be nice to make Sparky use the decks we built to test a deck againt another or having it use a random deck from ours.

Authentication Failed for "User name" bug
When trying to open the game in my PC, I keep getting an error message saying that "Authentication failed for 'username'" instead of logging in to the game.
Regardeless of what I've tried (reinstalling, updating, updating through Epic Games), I can't solve this issue.
I've seen A LOT OF USERS have been affected by this issue, but still there is no answer or workaround.8 votes -
2v2
Hi!
I would really love to get more of my friends playing with me online. I am sure that adding a 2v2 mode would be a lot of fun and a good way to get my friends playing. Right now if you wanna play with friends you play a couple of games and then you get bored. But playing with each other would be a lot more fun and I'm sure would make me pull some all-nighters :D.
Hoping I can get some balls rolling this way :)
Cheers!

Saga glitch
Enchantment Sagas keep glitching on me. There has been a lot of games where sagas either work on step one then not on the rest, the first 2 steps happen simultaneously, or none of the steps work at all and the saga card just enters the battlefield. It can happen when playing the saga from hand or replaying from a Yorion. This happens on both Mac and PC. It has unfairly won me some games but, for the most part, has lost me more than i've won.
