Opponent stuck in timeout
Opponent is not losing due to timeout.
I am playing in the arena sealed event and during the opponent's first main phase he went into time out, but the game is stuck after his timeout expired and the game has been stuck in his main phase for 1 hour.

Similar situation in Premier Draft Crimson Vow- clock ran down on opponent's first timeout, then it got stuck with no progress.

Playing on windows PC, this just happened to me, too. Only, I am the one with a stuck timer, blocking the game. There general game seems to be alive - I can hear the music, my pet reacts to my clicks and even cards still get zoomed on hover, but my spell is stuck on the stack with empty timer.
No event, just normal ranked match

Can only add myself to this ever growing list of people experiencing this problem. I was playing MTGA (2021.8.50.295.886957) on an iPad (iOS 14.7.1). Even though I was clearly winning my player was more patient so I eventually conceded.

Experiencing the same issue as described in this thread by dozens of people. After a great deal of waiting, I received a disconnect notification (and a loss).

I'm stuck in that same loop as well. My opponent still has not had a timer after 5 minutes of inactivity. If this is the way to cheat the system then it seems like a pretty easy fix. I'm looking at some pretty old complaints about this and the fact that it hasn't been fixed is concerning. I think it also needs to be made known on the app store as well. This is just straight up cheating.

I just had this happen in MTG Arena on iOS, in the current brawl event. Can't believe people reported this bug over a year ago and this is still happening?
I played vivien, and the opponent took no action and timer ran down, but the game got stuck.

Also happened to me during mulligan phase:
The opponent was choosing whether to mulligan or not, but made no action. The timer burned down and expired. Then nothing happened. No further timeouts. I could tap around in the match, but was stuck waiting on an absent opponent. -

Had my opponent dead to rights. Been stuck in this spot for about a half hour now, in a premier draft match I should have won. Just got into MTGA and I'm extremely disappointed to see so many comments on this thread, and several other threads showing that this seems to be a frequent issue

Singleton tournament today, not even a timeout. ticket #1868081
This is obvisouly an on purpose method to trigger server/game timeout. (yes, sometimes player could be genuinly disconnected, but some statistical analysis would reveal that it is more frequent when players are losing)
