Brawl is completely unbalanced
Brawl, or historic brawl, has become a completely broken format, unbalanced, unfair and straight out unplayable. Let me elaborate. Brawl has seen in recent years the inclusion of many cards to the format. Some very positive additions include fetch lands and the MH2 elementals just to name a few. I personally was really happy to see these cards added to Arena. On the other hand, there have been some very questionable additions like Chrome Mox and the pool of alchemy cards. At the same time, for completely unintelligible reasons, Wizards decided to extend the nerfs from Historic to Brawl. So cards like Guide of Souls, Ocelot Pride, DRC, Unholy heat, Teferi time raveler, etc. are nerfed in the format. The end result is a format where your opponent can have a turn 1 Chrome Mox, into dark ritual into Rusko Clockmaker, but you have to play with a nerfed guide of souls and cannot cast on turn 1 ocelot pride. To me, after many years of playing Brawl on Arena, this situation has made the format straight unplayable. Especially considering that most of the free counter spells are not yet added (or will they ever be?) to the format, i.e. FoN, FoW, Daze, and even force spike! (Which for also completely unintelligible reasons it is added as a draftable spell from a spell book but not as a standalone card).
I understand that Brawl is the format where players want to test 4-player commander cards, but in actuality, the format is most similar to duel commander, also called French Commander, or 1v1 commander. For obvious reasons, in duel commander, most of the cards that cause trouble in Brawl are banned, i.e. Chrome Mox, Ajani (as a commander), Ragavan, Mana Drain, Temporal Trespass, Treasure Cruise, Dig through time, just to name a few. You can find the complete ban list in here:
https://www.mtgdc.info/banned-restricted
I play competitive duel commander, and I find this ban list equilibrates the format extremely well. Alchemy cards also contribute greatly to break the format. The now infamous Mythweaver Poq, Rusko, Oracle of the Alpha and their absurd alchemy-specific mechanics like seek, conjure and "perpetual", stablish a clear breach of power level for those of us who prefer not to play with Alchemy cards. I have already explained the Alchemy problem in Brawl in another feedback entry, you may find it here:
I feel many players share my opinion. I have a few suggestions for improving the format, that I hope could be implemented for a better play experience:
1 - Ideally, segregate Alchemy from Brawl. You can still have an Alchemy Brawl format for those who wish to play with this card pool.
2 - Remove historic nerfs in Brawl. If cards like Teferi, time Raveler are a problem in the command zone, just ban it as a commander only (or even better, do not allow planeswalkers in the command zone, which is the root cause of the problem, and a terrible idea overall).
3 - Get more in line with the Duel Commander ban list. There is also no reason to ban cards such as Drannith Magistrate or Medling Mage. I get it, people want to cast their commanders, but these are cards that are part of a game of Commander, and you do not need to infantilize your Arena players.
4 - We are still missing an incredibly large card pool in Brawl, even from very recent sets. Some examples include Pyrogoyf, Broadside Bombardiers, etc, etc. While I understand that including all new cards is a big effort, you are at the same time producing new Alchemy cards 95% of your community hates. Why not devoting that effort to actually include cards you release in paper sets?Somehow, I doubt Wizards will listen. But if you made it up to here, thank you for reading :) and I hope you give a thumbs up to this post! Cheers!

Game error. Coins
I paid 4,000 coins to play a draft at approximately 5 PM Argentine time, and I couldn't play. When I logged into the game, it told me there was a "connection error." After 2 hours, I logged back in, and there was no more "Cube" draft, and I lost my 4,000 coins. Please, I need my coins back from the draft I didn't play. Thank you.

Cube Draft Event Did Not Start
I paid for a Cube Draft event in MTG Arena, but the event never started. The draft table took several attempts to launch but failed to gather enough players. After multiple retries, the event simply disappeared from my account, and I never received a refund for my entry fee.

cyclonic rift bug
Cast cyclonic rift for its overload cost on my turn while the opponent was tapped out and did not cast any interaction. Rift resolved and his board was not returned to hand, resulting in my loss on his turn.

Weekly Win Rewards did not reset properly last week
Last week my Weekly Win Rewards didn't reset at the proper time, instead I had to wait a week more than the normal time for them to reload/reset.
It's particularly upsetting since this is the first time I buy the Mastery pass and because of this bug I'll end the season a few levels lower on Mastery than I would have otherwise.
I would really appreciate if somebody from the team actually contacted me about this.

Mastery orb reward
Edge of Eternities Mastery Emporium orbs are not granting the selected cards. I have noticed two instances of this bug happening. The first is when I attempted to get "Sledge-Class Seedship" for 1 mastery orb, I had waited to see if there was some kind of lag with gaining the card...there is not, it just doesn't appear.
The second was today where I attempted to get "Warmaker Gunship" with 1 mastery orb, and again it does not show up in my collection. I verified I owned 2 before using the mastery orb and when used I still only had 2.3 votes -

Starting town tapped pre-combat damage
I am currently running a deck using Essence Channeler and Starting Town. During my opponent's pre-combat or during combat I am unable to tap my Starting Town pinging myself for 1 point of damage for any mana type. This might be because the program doesn't register I have any responses available. I should be able to tap my land during combat giving my Essence Channeler flying in order to respond to an opponent's declaration of attackers.
It should allow the option to tap Starting Town as a response just like how you can pay mana for a creature land when before defenders are declared.

Standard Legal Decks listed as Invalid to Play Standard
When you go to "Find Match", Select "Standard Play", none of my standard legal decks show up. I even copied a pre-built standard deck and added in one standard legal card but now it's listed as invalid.

Sideboarding problem (standard format)
The sideboard is ONLY allowing 7 cards instead 15 in standard format. Problem seems part of recent REPROGRAMMING. The sideboard says invalid with only 8 or more cards.

Brawl deck not working
I can't play 2 decks as error states that there are too many cards of the same name in a deck. 1 deck has Nazguls and the other has Hare Apparents. Shouldn't this still work?

Game freezes
After the new update I can't select a new deck or play any game without the game freezing and taking a long time to update and do anything. I have yet to get to play a game since the update because the cards in my hand never load.

Invalid decks sorrow
HI!
Today I found out that most of my traditional decks (with sideboard) became invalid. While opening them, I found no banned or restricted card in them. I removed the sideboard and some got saved, some didn't. Now I also lost the sideboard for Pioneer and standard. Please help, because it is sad5 votes -

The 15 card sideboard warning prevent editing or building sideboard. Great dissatisfier and devalues this product.
I suggest the sideboard problem be fixed. Screen says I have more than 15 cards. This is not true. It does not allow me to edit my sideboards. Already restarted my computer and repaired game files.

On Arena Brawl playing vs Not Legal Cards
Why am I finding myself playing Brawl format via Arena versus not legal cards? Few days ago I played vs Primevial Titan and today I found myself playing vs Golos. Please keep your rules in tact.
