antimaleficio duda/bug
Tenia un 'Orbe de los dragones de jade' con el cual juego un 'Bocahumareda salvaje'.
El juego me pone la animacion de que tiene antimaleficio, pero fue destruida porque fue objetivo de un conjuro con efecto de 'destruye la criatura objetivo'.
Hasta donde yo entiendo no debería ser posible, no?1 vote -

Cards not in my deck are in my deck when playing
I have a “dragon” deck with red/white/blue, no cards exist that can “create” cards into the deck during gameplay. I have had cards with the wrong colors (black/green) appearing in my deck during the game. Totallly bizarre and has cost me a couple of matches

Mac M1 Max – Massive Battery Drain & Overheating on macOS Sequoia
After updating to macOS Sequoia 15.5, MTGA causes extreme battery drain and overheating on my M1 Max MacBook Pro (2021, 32GB RAM). Activity Monitor shows Energy Impact values as high as 2800, even with all graphics settings on low and no other major apps running. Feels like it's going to catch fire.
I’ve verified that I’m using the native (non-Rosetta) version. Other games and apps run normally, so the issue seems specific to MTGA on Sequoia.
I’ve seen older posts from other Mac users requesting native Apple Silicon support and improved optimization.
Continued investment in macOS performance would go a long way in making MTGA feel like a truly inclusive, cross-platform experience. Please advise if optimizations for Apple Silicon and Sequoia are planned.

Bug
While i was playing against my son. My son had Freya Crescent, which the prior turn he had used sheltered by ghosts to take my Preacher of the Schism. So shelter by ghosts was active on his Freya . Then it was my turn i used the spell Claim the first born on freya and had paid the ward 2 to gain control of Freya. Upon paying the ward cost i then gained control of freya but then shelted by ghosts fell off and went to the graveyard and i got my preacher back. As far as i am aware THIS action SHOULD NOT have happened. But it did. Is there something i am missing, because as per the rules i have read the sheltered by ghosts should have remained active on freya for me to attack with her but as i said this didnt happen. It instead when to graveyard and i received my preacher back under my control as if i had destroyed the enchantment which i didnt. If i am missing someone someone please explain

Free Phantom Draft
Draft is the most inclusive way to play Magic. Everybody picks cards from the same limited pool, you can play regardless of how big your collection already is and your opponents, from the newcomer to the veteran, uses the same cards you could have chosen yourself (to some extent). This also allows the skills of each player to emerge and make the difference, more than in Constructed formats.
Yet, on Arena, the most inclusive format to play is not the most inclusive to access: the gold/gem entry fee forces people interested in drafting to play Constructed for days before they can afford just one or two drafts per week. Moreover, drafts radically change from set to set and, most of the time, the available set is the most recent one. After two or three months - therefore after a dozen of drafts, if lucky - players have a totally new draft format to learn from scratches, right after getting good at playing the previous one.
Currently, the only options are either to afford one or two drafts per week, to buy gems with real money or to get good enough to recover the entry fee with the prizes. The last one is extremely difficult with so little events once in a while to practice with. All of these conditions make ranking up the Limited ladder an impossible dream for free to play players and an expensive effort for paying ones.
Some people in other threads have already suggested a solution: free phantom drafts always available. Drafting every day for free (or for little), without getting the cards we draft with, would bring many more players closer to the format and make it effectively inclusive. It'll give new rookies a fair environment to compete, without the frustration of facing unaffordable decks in Constructed over and over again; it'll give Constructed-experts a broader game experience, making them better wizards in multiple formats and letting them manage evenly their in-game resources; it'll give Limited-experts a greater and more enjoyable challenge, since more people would be able to practice, climb the ladder and compete at the highest level. It's a win-win for everybody.
To prevent certain exploits, the system might work the same way as Jump In!: resigning before the end of the card selection would not change the cards you get to find in the boosters. The same small entry fee of 1000 gold / 200 gems may be considered, if it helps discouraging unfairness without compromising on accessibility.
The Final Fantasy set brought so many new people into Magic: The Gathering. A new set is coming and the risk of losing a large majority of fresh players just because they don't have the right cards to have fun playing Constructed is real. We already have phantom drafts once in a while as Midweek Magic events, so the proposal is nothing brand new. It's all about making it a staple instead of an alternative. It's about letting all of us enjoy our favourite game in our favourite way, once per day instead of once per week. Draft deserves more love and our love deserves more drafts.

wrong counters for card (Sazh Chocobo)
Playing in Alchemy Ranked and player had Sazh Chocobo in play with Landfall +1/+1. Player played sorcery to put two lands into play tapped, but the resolve counted 5 +1/+1 instead of two. It was the second time I've experienced bad counter programming. I believe it happens when more than the first land is put into play.

Valkyrie’s Call only returning creatures on death at random
I keep using Valkyrie’s Call during gameplay however the callback effect only works at random. This seems to fail to happen more often when going on the offensive.

Batterskull Smashing is buggy when targeting 2 things
Batterskull Smashing is buggy when targeting 2 things. In my Brawl game, the submit button worked for a single target, but was grayed out when I selected 2 targets. One of the targets was my opponent's Commander, who had died and been recast. After selecting the 2 targets, I was asked to split the damage, but any split wasn't activating the submit button, including correct splits (like 4/3 for X=7 or 3/3 for X=6p).

Has there been consideration to allowing the trade-up of 4 lower wildcards to obtain 1 of the next level
Example: 4 common wild cards —> 1 uncommon wild card
4 uncommon wild cards —> 1 rare wild card
4 rare wild cards —> 1 mythic wild card2 votes -
Crafting a Card Style Steals Wildcards
So, I attempted to click and drag a Card Style of a Mythic Rare (Ugin the Spirit Dragon) and utilize the "craft all" button to finish it. While it did use both of my Mythic Rare wildcards (I attempted it twice before I realized something was wrong), it did not actually give me the card I wanted—neither the original version, nor the Card Style. Would it be possible to get my wildcards back?
I unfortunately do not have any more Mythic Wildcards to demonstrate the glitch, so I repeated it using a Common Alley Evasion card.

Loss not recorded
I have had 3 occasions recently where it seems arena has not recorded a loss. Not posting this in the bug forum as I'm guessing wizards doesn't want this publicized. I have no idea how to reproduce it it just happens. On mobile and pc.

Interaction between Terra, Magical Adept and Rest in Peace.
In Standard Brawl, I had Rest in Peace in play. My opponent played Terra, Magical Adept. When her ETB ability triggered, my opponent was allowed to take one of the milled cards that were put into exile by Rest in Peace into their hand.

Issue with Duplicate cards in Brawl
When building a deck around relentless rats, the game does not recognize the fact that more then one copy is allowed in the deck and invalidates the deck for play.
Playing on PC, not sure about other platforms or gamemodes. This issue has been occurring since the update a few days ago.2 votes -
scratchy crackling audio on mac as of the 2025.49.50 patch
Per the subject, as of the most recent patch I'm experiencing very scratchy audio on macOS Sonoma 14.3 (23D56).
It's consistent throughout all client sessions. This appears to be a resurfacing of a prior Mac audio issue with the Unity engine approximately 2 years ago (circa the 2023.1.0 Unity build).
