Can't enter games for long time (cancel after 11+ min) or can't play when entering
I can't suddenly play. Got up to 9/15 wins, but now I either can't join games or when I rarely enter the game I don't either get cards. Or when I get cards, the game is frozen waiting on opponent to decide if to mulligan, even after the timer has expired. Tried ranked and regular alchemy with two decks. Restarted phone. Fixed game files. Checked that I have latest update in Google store.

Cards not showing in game
Cards do not show up in the game interface, either for myself or my opponent. The playing surface / arena is shown but there are no cards in hand, no library, no graveyard etc. I'm unable to take any actions and the timer visual starts ticking down. I can't even concede the game. When I click concede nothing happens so I have to restart the game and then the match is gone.

MTGA Stalls out when loading a new match and when the timer runs out completely.
Just got back on to finish wins for the day. Joined the Starter Deck league with WG (which worked earlier today).
When loading into a new game it doesn't show any 'my/opponent's turn' UI, it just stalls out until timer starts then runs out and then stalls there too. Exited the first try, entered a second, where "Waiting for Opponent" started almost immediately when it usually only starts when I'm matched up with someone. ~10 secs later I'm matched up, but the same thing happens. Currently still there with stalled timer (pic 4).
Pics supplied, 3 of the first and 1 of the second.

Priority glitch/stall,
As of the latest update, when playing on Android, there will any variety of effects that will proc priority. You see the yellow aura around the opponents HP, signaling priority. I wait and wait, but then the yellow timeout counter pops up. So it's their priority, but I'm the one timing out? I know it's not my service. I might say it's some form of hack/cheat by the other player, but I've been playing for a few months and this issue has only just popped up since the last update. I didn't think to screenshot this secondary issue at the time, and ultimately it's minor, but when I went into edit my decks the decks' avatars were reset to that white cat warrior creature with the pendulum glaive (starting base avatar). Again, minor, but in conjunction with the other issue this game is glitching out hardcore. Ok, this is getting insane, as I'm trying to submit this bug report intermittently it'll make my report go away and show the list of other reports/suggestions. Thankfully, when I tap on post new idea it brings up my report and all I've typed remains; this has happened 4 times trying to make this one report. What is happening? I know wizards of the coast is incompetent what with Dungeons and Dragons 5.5 edition (neutering monks, thinking you buffed rangers but only slightly, barbarian's rage? what in the heck, almost completely taking away damage resistance/immunities, the entirety of character creation, and the list of trash changes go on but I think I've made my point. Literally the only thing worth anything in 5.5 are the secondary effects to weapons, but if I'm being honest, it's broken: basic non-multiclass rogues become irrefutably god-teir bonk characters given the short bow and short sword, vex property, nearly ensuring sneak attack every turn), but the incompetence is bleeding into mtg arena and the webpage to report mtg arena bugs... Do better wizards. Oh my god! It did the last complaint again as I was uploading the screenshot of the first complaint! Wizards of the coast is run by toddlers with railroad spikes in their frontal lobe! Jesus!

Game freezing/ screen locking again
I'm back again, I'm not usually one to complain about too many things, but this bug has literally cost me money at this point. I'm playing on Android, but I've seen it affecting both. It seems totally random, today it happened after I attacked an opponent, and I'm well aware anything is possible, but it sure seemed like I was on my way to winning that match. This has happened every day since the latest update, costing me wins in premier draft events. I don't know why I expected today to be any better.

Triggers/Interactions that cause a card to display on the right side of the screen cause Denial of Service
Prior to the rollout of the TMNT set/scenery, this was not an issue.
What happens:
A card will cause the opposing player to interact with the board/game somehow. For example, a card will cause the opposing player to mill two cards. The card will display on the right side of the screen, which is correct behavior: it's showing me what the player is supposed to do. The problem is this state of the game does not progress. I cannot tell if it's something that is actively being exploited by the opposing player or if it's a lag/race condition of some sort.It should be noted that in almost all the cases, I am not the Active Player at the time. The interaction is up to the opposing player.
This has happened atleast 4 out of my last 10 games.
What this causes:
The game will think that I am not responding to whatever action is currently on the stack, but the only things I can do in the UI are send Emotes, Hold down my finger on any card to see the detailed screen, and sometimes I can click the Cog icon that allows me to access the "Concede" option. This results in me having to use up all my Timeouts (despite all my best efforts to get the game moving).When I click the Cog and go to Concede, all that does is remove the Cog and I'm stuck in a worse spot.
I have to power off my device and then re-enter the app. When I re-enter, the game will say that I need to download 1 Gig worth of assets (I always have to download it if this bug occurs).I mention the phrase "Denial of Service" because I am put in a spot where the only option is to power off then try to start a new game hoping I don't have the same issue.
Device Information:
OS: iPadOS Version 16.7.14
Model Name: iPad (5th Generation)
Model Number: MPGT2LL/A
Network Settings: Connected Via WiFiPrior to the rollout of the TMNT set/scenery, this was not an issue.

Game crashing
I am playing the midweek event on iOS. I am trying to change up my sealed deck and when I remove the lands and add new ones the game crashes then resets. It was repeatable. I tried four or five times.

Turns not processing
For about 5 games since the most recent update, is keep getting an issue where I use an instant or sorcery and the game just doesn't continue. It isn't frozen as I can interact with games (although freezing is an issue on mobile too) The weird thing is timeouts will occur and then they just stop and it doesn't force a concede. Happening to me in ranked standard and midweek magic

Request for Correction of the Korean Translation of “Sneak” (Ninja Turtle Keyword)
I am submitting this request regarding an issue in the Korean localization of keyword abilities.
The keyword “Blitz” has previously been translated into Korean as “기습.” However, the newly introduced keyword “Sneak” has also been translated as “기습” in the Korean version.
“Blitz” and “Sneak” are distinct keyword abilities with different mechanics and rules meanings. Assigning the same Korean term to two separate keyword abilities creates unnecessary confusion for Korean-speaking players.
It makes it difficult to distinguish between the two abilities in gameplay, rules interpretation, and card interactions.
This is a terminology conflict in localization and should be corrected to maintain clarity and accuracy in the Korean version of the game.
I request that the Korean translation of “Sneak” be revised to a different term that clearly distinguishes it from “Blitz.”
I suggest “암습" as an alternative Korean translation to replace the current term “기습.”
