1. Game crashes with NullReferenceException in TextMeshPro after November 2025 update

   Game crashes with NullReferenceException in TextMeshPro after November 2025 update

   Platform: PC (Windows 10/11, MTG Arena client)

   Steps to Reproduce:

   Launch MTG Arena after the November 2025 update.

   Play a match normally.

   At match end or when UI elements are destroyed/disabled, the client begins stuttering.

   Within seconds, the game freezes and the entire computer becomes unresponsive.

   Expected Result: Game should close connections and clean up UI/audio objects without crashing or freezing the system.

   Actual Result:

   Client stutters, then hard-freezes the PC.

   Logs show repeated NullReferenceException errors in TMP_SubMeshUI.UpdateMaterial() and UnityEngine.Material.GetFloatImpl.

   AudioManager fails to stop UI timer sounds on destroyed objects.

   Network connections close normally, but the client terminates with Input System module state changed to: Shutdown.

   Relevant Log Snippet:

   Code
   NullReferenceException
   at UnityEngine.Material.GetFloat (System.String name)
   at TMPro.TMPSubMeshUI.UpdateMaterial ()
   at TMPro.TMPSubMeshUI.SetMaterialDirty ()
   at UnityEngine.UI.MaskableGraphic.OnDisable ()
   at TMPro.TMP_SubMeshUI.OnDisable ()
   Additional Notes:

   Issue began immediately after the November 2025 Avatar launch patch.

   Repairing the client did not resolve the crash.

   Suspect regression in Unity/TextMeshPro material handling during UI teardown.

2. Ban Doc Aurlock in Standard (or at least BO1)

   This enablement with airbending leads to extremely lengthy turns with no win condition in sight as a player often times slowly assembles a stack of 1/1 tokens and eventually passes the turn or worse (exploit/glitch?) causes their opponent to timeout and lose the ability to react. The latter occurs if the opponent has a response that they must continuously acknowledge. The airbending player never seems to time out and can perform the loop as frequently as they wish while causing their opponent to timeout (certain circumstances). This playloop is reminiscent of copycat in Kaladesh Standard or in more recent times the Nexus of Fate loop from Dominaria/WAR. The nature of Arena makes these sorts of interactions very painful, especially in BO1 play where a player can't even sideboard against it. These decks are an increasing amount of the meta and lead to very long drawn out non games with the primary wincons being scoop to boredom, timeout exploit, or the opponent simply dying of old age. An emergency ban is needed, at least on Arena where the nature of the game engine itself makes it excruciating vs simply demonstrating a loop in paper.

3. GreError with 249 tokens

   I had a game end in a GreError draw due to 249 Scute Swarm tokens, with Ashaya, Blossoming Tortoise, and some earthbent Forests.

   For some weird reason, it hung on the Blossoming Tortoise attack trigger, even though that has nothing to do with the tokens?
   (It's a mill/graveyard/return land action, which would have created more tokens, but never got the chance.)

   249 tokens seems like a reasonable number, so maybe it was the 6 +1/+1 counters on each of them?
   There's got to be a way to efficiently store that many tokens and counters, the game engine should be able to handle it.
   Also, when there's lots of triggers of the same kind, make them resolve faster, it's not like there's anything special about each one.

5. Cards face down in hand

   On Steam / Linux I have never had any issues until today, card in my hand drawn face down. When I played it, the front doesn't load correctly and it gets stuck on the stack, even though the game engine played it correctly and I was able to get to the end of the game, the broken card stayed on the stack the whole time.

   This happened two games in a row, in the first game I just ignored the face down card in my hand but in the second game I tried to play it and it turned into a broken looking Cloud, Midgar Mercenary. The card stayed stuck on the stack but the game proceeded like it had come into play, i searched my library and played another equipment before the game ended. In the screenshot you can see another face down card in my hand, probably another Cloud but IDK.

6. Leyline giving bonuses from lifelink before resolution of damages

   In game according to the rule if a creature gets damage equal or superior to its toughness, it die.
   The white leyline (current standard) allows to give bonuses if the controller have more than a certain number of hp.

   Right now I just witness an interaction where the leyline gave bonuses to creature that were 0 in toughness before they die. I understand that lifelink triggers in same time as the damages but the bonus from the leyline that is activated by the life gain from the damage should activate AFTER the resolution of the damage. Because if the damage are not resolved the player do not gain life from lifelink. Thus the creatures that reach 0 toughness during the damage step should die not get a +2/+2 instead of dying.

   This is a bug in the order of resolution in your engine. It might not seem like much but it is a huge issue rule wise.
   Please fix this ASAP.

7. Affordances for Infinite Mana production / Unlimited card draw engines

   I have been playing around with a pet deck in Arena Standard which can generate infinite mana and unlimited card draw, but the effectiveness of doing so has been stymied by games being forced to a draw or me being forced to cease drawing cards and generating mana by Arena's "stall protection". It seems to believe that no progress is being made in the game state, even though I am continuously drawing cards and developing my field, as well as generating enough mana to cast a way to close out the game.

   The specific cards I am using are Agatha's Soul Cauldron with a Sleep-Cursed Faerie exiled by it, two or more copies of Badgermole Cub in order to generate infinite mana -- all creatures that can tap for mana with +1/+1 counters on them, such as a land animated by Earthbending, will tap for [X] plus [G] for each instance of Badgermole Cub, and can then untap themselves for [2] using Sleep-Cursed Faerie's activated ability, adding one mana to the pool each time --

   And Stormchaser's Talent and Boomerang Basics to draw an unlimited number of cards -- [U] to cast Stormchaser's Talent, [3U] to return Boomerang Basics to hand from the graveyard, [U] to cast Boomerang Basics targeting Stormchaser's Talent, drawing a card in the process, which can be repeated indefinitely thanks to generating unlimited mana --

   Which can be then done until a finisher, usually Craterhoof Behemoth or an arbitrarily large Goldvein Hydra can be drawn and cast.

   I recognized that there are severe downsides to using this strategy on a digital client compared to playing in paper -- in paper play, I could simply demonstrate that the mana generation loop is indeed a loop, have my opponent acknowledge it, and say I repeat the process until I generate an arbitrarily large amount of mana, compared to having to click through the abilities manually for each iteration of the loop -- which cannot reasonably be solved due to the limitations of said digital format.

   However, I believe the game being forced to draw in the case of the mana generation loop is not a reasonable result. As long as additional mana is being added to a player's mana pool and has ways to spend it, the game state is progressing, not being stalled. I would appreciate if an affordance for situations like this was made in Arena.

8. Loss of MTGA "Additional" Data

   I've been having to redownload the game multiple times for my Android Samsung 24 Ultra. It is also happened on my windows 10 PC. Approximately 13 GB in my windows 10 case and approximately 3.4 GB large on my phone.i re-downloaded it once on my pc, lots the data again, and I've had to download this five times on my phone as nearly every 2 to 3 days it loses the data and needs to re-download MTGA this started happening after the Edge of Eternities set, not sure if that makes a difference or if anything was changed internally in the game engine of mtga.

   Can we get away to more permanently keep the data on our phone or Windows pc? Redownloading this is using a lot of my data for the month and I do not want to exceed my limit. If it's not corrected I'll just stop buying Magic the Gathering stuff, paper and mtga.

9. Searching Cards

   Would be great if WotC made an effort to make it easy to find cards. And allow third party sites to see updated cards on MTGA. You see the s:"cube-52.60" is not an intuitive search for the latest cards added to MTGA that are impossible to find. Where s:TLA and s:TLE are easier and more logical searches…

   I get Cube April doesnt get paid nearly enough to operate Scryfall fully, yet the people who make an effort; they should have an easy enough time, running a better search engine than WotC can. (My understanding is that WotC is still a small indie company, not testing for bugs and releasing half updates, requiring follow up patches shortly thereafter)
   https://scryfall.com/search?as=grid&order=name&q=preordain+%28game%3Apaper%29

   We can see how WotC’s own database is not updated fully, in part cause of how poorly the announcement was made; without a logical set code:

10. [[Case of the Lost Witness]] + [[Ephemerate]] Incorrect rules interactions

    Hello Rules-engine team,

    I belive I encountered a gameplay bug (incorrect rules interaction) while playing arena cube when I attempted to [[Ephemerate]] a [[Fblthp, the Lost]] conjured by [[Case of the Lost Witness]]. Some more observations (log file too big to attach):

    • the spell was put on the stack, but seems to have not fully resolved since the Rebound reminder box didn't get created.
    • the conjured Fblthp did not get put in my hand
    • the ephemerate did go to my graveyard

    This was on PC client.

    Hope this helps spot an issue, and is not me wasting someones time because I missed some rules interatction on board!!

11. Talion the kindly lord

    The interaction between Talion, the Kindly Lord and cloning effects, such as those produced by Clone, Spark Double, or Mirrorhall Mimic, does not consistently function as one might anticipate, due to the intricate interplay of replacement effects and copy mechanics in Magic: The Gathering.

    Talion, the Kindly Lord possesses a characteristic replacement effect: “As Talion enters the battlefield, choose a number between 1 and 10. Whenever an opponent casts a spell with mana value equal to the chosen number, that player loses 2 life and you draw a card.” Critically, the choice of number is made as the permanent enters the battlefield, not as a triggered ability. Consequently, this decision occurs outside the stack and is intrinsically linked to the entering event itself.

    When a clone effect creates a copy of Talion, the game first establishes the cloned permanent’s characteristics and then applies any relevant “as enters the battlefield” replacement effects. In principle, the clone should permit the controller to select a number independently of the original Talion, thereby enabling its associated life-loss and card-drawing triggers to function autonomously.

    In practice, however, some digital implementations fail to maintain the integrity of this linkage. While the interface may correctly prompt the player to choose a number, the subsequent triggered ability frequently does not resolve as intended: the visual cue appears, but the life-loss and card-drawing effects fail to occur. This discrepancy is not a matter of rules ambiguity but rather a technical oversight in the execution of the game engine.

    Under the official rules, a cloned Talion that enters the battlefield should fully replicate the original’s functionality, including independent selection of a number and proper resolution of triggered effects. Each instance operates autonomously, with triggers linked explicitly to the chosen number for that particular permanent.

12. Excessive Timeouts when players leave a match on PC using the X in top right by closing app.

    When playing MTGA on PC, if a player leaves during a game by clicking the X and closing the client, the server does not register this and the other player has to suffer through however many 30 second timers the player has until the player times out.

    This happens in at least 25-30% of matches I play during dailies, players get frustrated or realize they are going to lose and X out. I've tested this myself with friends to reverse engineer what was going on. Initially I thought it was players griefing when they were going to lose, then I figured out they are just Xing out of the application using the X in top right and the server registers that as a disconnect instead of a forfeit.

    My suggestion is when a player Clicks the X, give them the option to forfeit the match, or consider that a forfeit. This is NOT a disconnect and the X should send information to the server instead of just closing the application without tying up loose ends.

    This is beyond annoying and costs me at least 10-15 minutes a day doing dailies, waiting through players timeouts.

    When playing MTGA on PC, if a player leaves during a game by clicking the X and closing the client, the server does not register this and the other player has to suffer through however many 30 second timers the player has until the player times out.

    This happens in at least 25-30% of matches I play during dailies, players get frustrated or realize they are going to lose and X out. I've tested this myself with friends to reverse engineer what was going on. Initially I thought it was players griefing when they were going to lose, then… more

13. Network Error – MTG Arena client fails to fall back to IPv4 (RFC 6555)

    On PC (Steam), MTG Arena repeatedly shows “Network Error” or “Unable to get collection” when IPv6 is enabled.
    The issue occurs on a valid dual-stack network: both IPv4 and IPv6 routes are reachable, but the client never retries on IPv4 if IPv6 stalls.

    Steps to reproduce

    Launch MTG Arena on a Windows system with IPv6 preferred (e.g. Fritz!Box router).

    Start the client — it hangs with Network Error.

    Launch again using:

    C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe /c "set PREFERIPV4=true && set UNITYIPV6=0 && start "" "C:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\MTGA\MTGA.exe""

    The game connects normally.

    Actual result:
    Arena fails to connect when IPv6 path is slow or unreachable.

    Expected result:
    Client should automatically fall back to IPv4 per RFC 6555 (“Happy Eyeballs”).

    Workaround:
    Setting PREFERIPV4=true and UNITYIPV6=0 forces IPv4-only sockets and resolves the problem immediately.

14. I have 22 lands in a 65 land deck and draw nothing but lands every game, fix it

    Your draw system is rigged to benefit certain players. There is no way in a deck where there are 22 out of 65 land cards, where i have 10 lands down, 6 in the graveyard, and 6 left in the deck with a total of 37 cards left in the deck, that I pull 5 lands in a row. With draw cards and draw for turn. The odds on the first one would be 16%, the next 13%, then 11%, 8%, then 6%. The chances of getting 5 in a row? That a 0.00109824% chance of happening 5 times in a row. Now that scenario has played out in multiple games, maybe not the exact numbers but close. Meaning your game engine is creating an occurrence with a .001% chance of happening multiple times a day. Please explain how that is possible? The odds of that happening more than once a day? .0001%, just make it fair and not about money. We just want to play magic and will spend money to do it, just dont rig our games. Now my math may be off a bit but not much. I am assuming independency of probability and in this case there is a huge dependency so actually the odds may be even lower as the odds decrease each time. Basic for anyone with any type of coding experience to realize your draw odds are wonky as heck.

    See8ng as how this page is filled with similar reports, you obviously do not care about the game and only want to make it so bad player win and are encouraged to continue spending money and playing. As someone who has played MTG since the early 90s, I am ashamed of what you have become. This game used to be about finding a place to walk the planes with friends, maybe a 1 to 3 sets a year, it meant something when you pulled a great card. Now we are reduced to playing a rigged system on an app where we have to pay for nothing but 1s and 0s just to have that money we spent mean nothing because we never pull the cards we just bought, we only pull lands. Those are free.....

15. Cheating

    MTGA has a serious issue with people summoning and using mana abilities when they don't have any mana available to them. Among other things, some players are just able to ignore the effects of enchantments all together, such ghostly prison, which is supposed to require your oppent to pay 2 for each attack creature. Also, another issuing occurring is watching opponents play cards when they don't have anything in their hand, no abilities triggering to allow then to play from their deck or graveyard. Also there is a rising issue with watching an opponents life total and counters change with no triggering effects to cause it to happen. This more than likely an issue with cheat engines being run on pc developed by third party companies. As it's been an issue for many people as has been recorded on MTGA reporting before you removed the ability for people to actually report something, maybe you guys should look into fixing it or removing PCs ability to play against mobile players. In this last match, in the photos added, this specific player should have had to pay the cost for ghostly prison and wasn't, he was still unhappiness all his dual lands, even though winter moon was in effect. In a match prior to this one, the same issue ghostly prison was in effect and the player had two mana and no treasure tokens, or mana adding anything and was swinging as though the enchantment wasn't there.

16. your mistake is confusing randomness with realism.

    Your response, assuring me that the algorithms are “working as intended,” only reinforces my concern—not relieves it. If this is the intended behavior, then the design itself is the problem. The company's stated goal is to simulate “true randomness,” but the mistake here is confusing randomness with realism. Magic: The Gathering is not a purely random game—it’s a game of tuned variance and controlled chaos. Real-world shuffling, while imperfect, produces gameplay that feels consistent, engaging, and skill-rewarding. Your system, on the other hand, produces hands and draw sequences so far outside of statistical expectation that it actively punishes strategic deckbuilding and rewards variance abuse. After thousands of games and hundreds of thousands of card draws, I have encountered absurdly improbable patterns that would be laughed out of any serious statistical analysis. The odds of experiencing these anomalies repeatedly are so astronomical that either your shuffle system is misfiring catastrophically or it is deliberately engineered to create artificial swings in game flow. If the latter is true, that’s not a bug—it’s a betrayal. And let’s not hide behind “everyone plays under the same system.” That’s not a defense. If the system is flawed, universally applying that flaw doesn’t make it fair—it just makes it equally broken. A slot machine doesn’t become a skill game just because everyone gets the same odds. You’ve built an excellent digital platform around a game loved for its depth, nuance, and precision. But the shuffler undermines all of that. The data proves it, the community feels it, and your dismissive response ignores it. Fix the foundation. You don’t need to reinvent randomness—you need to reproduce reality.

17. Graveyard cards make it impossible to view/discard a card from hand

    Would like to report a frustrating bug (unless there is an option to avoid this I don’t know about).
    Upon gameplay, I amassed a large amount of cards in my hand and from my graveyard to choose from on my turn. So many cards that I could not choose a card in my hand to discard. All the cards from my graveyard took up all the space, so I could not get to a view where I could choose a card from my hand. As a result, I frantically tried everything I could to pick a card - ANY card - to discard, as the game was pretty much won already I just needed to discard, but because I couldn’t pick one the timer went on without me being able to stop it, and after the multiple timeouts I lost the game. All because I couldn’t pick a dang card from my hand.

    I use IOS.

    I expected to be able to scroll side to side on all the cards I can see from my graveyard and hand, but no matter what I did this was not possible. I was stuck. Being able to scroll was expected results, but actual results was losing the game because I couldn’t friggin’ discard.

    This is both a product suggestion and a bug (I’m a software engineer). If there is a way to scroll your cards, then you may want to make it easier or suggest how to do it because I tried everything. This is going to happen again with the deck I have. Please fix this ASAP or inform us how to handle in game.

    I was unable to get a screen shot as I was trying to get a card picked to discard the whole time. But the only image you would see is a large number of cards from my graveyard visible and no cards from my hand showing because there was no room for them. If I brought my hand down I could see my hand (or see the blue highlight on these cards), but could not pick anything from that view.

18. Incorrect rules interactions

    When I create a temporary token with the effect of Saheeli, Radiant Creator, Worldwaker Helm creates a temporary Map token that I have to sacrifice just like the token created by Saheeli, Radiant Creator. Additionally, I can’t choose the order of the triggers of Brudiclad, Telchor Engineer and Saheeli, Radiant Creator at the beginning of combat.

19. iPad 6th gen with iPadOS 17.7.10 crashes frequently

    It seems that there's a memory leak.
    Long sessions, or long games, cause a crash.
    Even browsing the store and swiping across many items.
    As a software engineer, it seems that cards displayed are not managed and disposed when no longer on screen, and this potentially causes a memory leak.
    While this crash may only be apparent on older or low memory devices, I do believe the fix would boost the interface of all platforms.

20. Lag/Skip post blocks and it appeared like a miscalculation

    PC Windows
    Post blocks blocked a 4/4 Draconotics Engineer with an 8/9 Burrowguard Mentor with shelter on it sheltering a Krenko. Game kind of skipped out post combat and the mentor was gone. It wasn't killed as the krenko did not return to their side of the field, it just disappeared. Maybe I'm missing something but I don't think so
