always on the draw
Every time I create a deck very quickly, the game "understands" that my deck is always very strong when I start playing and starts putting me on the draw. Yesterday I played almost 50 games during the day/night to test this. Only 10 games started the game. This should be balanced. Another thing: it's always the same decks against me. After the game "understands" which decks have cards that hinder my strategy, it starts putting them against me. This harms the experience. I had already created a post with evidence of this in the past, but it mysteriously disappeared from the forum.

Algorithm
Fix your horrible algorithm!!!!!! You can't compete someone gets screwed by land every time it makes your game boring and at best bad. Quit being lazy and do something about it before you lose half your money due to laziness and lack of decency.

Primal Command
!!!!!THIS IS A BUG REPORT, NOT A FEEDBACK POST!!!!!
For whatever reason, intentional or otherwise, Primal Command is both a Rare, and an Epic Rare Simultaneously. The "Printed Card" displays it as an Epic, the alt Art displays it as an Epic, but there is also a rare version of it. I should be able to redeem an EPIC rare card for, considering the default option is EPIC. This needs to be addressed, either specify that it is alt art and cannot be redeemed, or modify it so that it is EPIC, or remove the default option being an epic.

Culling Ritual, Treasure tokens, and Priority
When your opponent is casting culling ritual and you have treasures, if you don’t have a thing to do at instant speed, the game doesn’t give you priority to sacrifice your treasure tokens.
I was on pc when this happened.2 votes -
fiery confluence
I used fiery confluence selecting doing 1 damage to each creature two times and destroying an artifact once. In response he sacrificed the artifact. No counters or fogs were played. Then the fiery confluence did nothing of the above and i lost the game because of that

New Player Experience / Onboarding Existing Magic Players
After watching a new player (who has no Magic knowledge) try to learn Magic via MTGA, it is clear the tutorial isn’t being that helpful.
1) dim most of the screen and show some of the key areas and explain what is the turn structure
2) talk about phases, when you can cast spells. What is the difference between instant/sorcery and permeants
3a) what is summoning sickness (that you cannot tap or attack until your next upkeep - except for force tapping)
3b) that the attacking player choose to attack their opponent’s face or their planeswalker (using your creatures in any combination)
4) show some optional harder teaching problems (like limited examples to let players get engaged with the math). Let the player step back to an earlier board state as well. And give them the average pro player’s response (of how they can be better).Trying to convert existing players to play MTGA:
A) Allow a free account to play any format. They get 6 pass of 48 hour blocks to use ANY cards they please.
B) If you spend 100usd on a welcome constructed pack, you can get a historic mana base (shock lands, pain lands, 3 fast and 3 slow lands and singleton of legendary channel lands). Generous set of wildcards and a choice of ‘precon’ decks (choose 3 from 9 to 12 decks. Pioneer, Historic and Timeless decks that are 80+% there; update these precons as the meta shifts).Generally rework the Mastery Pass so you have a reason to buy it. If you are being too cheap, there should be 3 tracks: Free pass, Drafter’s Bundle, Booster Bundle (wild cards, more boosters and let players pick the sets they want to get boosters from [1]).
[1] I opened 81 boosters from ECL so far and received zero (0) mythic evoking elementals. Seeing larger whales open over 200usd of booster to not complete a set reminds me how **** poor booster packs are. MTGA should be more attractive. Both for pros who want a quick way to test Modern/Pioneer/Standard or supporting casual players.

Timeless Management
Apart from it not existing, could WotC care to manage this better. Ban more regularly (whilst refunding players) to encourage players to test new things. You have the stats but Black decks are probably head and shoulders above other decks. You basically get to play Black or get Blacked.
Could you have restricted Grief and refunded players? YES!!
Could Strip Mine be banned and Wasteland be legal instead? YESSS. (It makes a difference when you can fetch basic island and basic mountain to still play than getting Stripped out of one or more colours; if you have any lands left).
It is like how MTGA devs pushed for Pioneer to be on the client but then there is no official support for Pioneer (basically WotC wasting development time). You have the power to work together (working with executives and tournament organisers than being this wasteful).

PERFECT SPELL NO CARDS
Got to love how the guy always seems to have the perfect spell as his last card in his hand. That wins him the game. You know he can't just have some other spell that doesn't kill my f****** creature. That's protecting me from dying now. Of course he's got the absolute perfect spell to kill my guy so he can win the game. No problem and it happens like 75% of the **** games this is happening. One turn away from changing the tide of the game and the guy has a perfect spell to stop that from happening. Where are my perfect cards? How come I can't replicate whatever the **** the opponent is doing? It gets the same f****** four cards every f****** game and I can't f****** get four f****** lands for f*** sakes. It's absolutely ridiculous. I don't know what the f*** is wrong with the shuffling. I don't know what the *'s going on but it's obviously f*** rigged which makes it kind of f****** pointless to play at all. I mean if you spend your money on this game you're f****** they took you man they took you f****** good cuz they just force you to f****** lose man absolute f****** joke

Ancient Adamantoise below zero and indestructable bug
Ancient Adamantoise can have toughness below zero and giving it indestructible will continue to allow it to live.
Normally of a creature's toughness goes to 0 or lower, it dies and this cannot be stopped by indestructible.
However in this case (see image) it is at -22 and is still able to survive. I'm not sure that is intended.

opponent found a way to force me to lose using server connectivity
I was playing an opponent on ranked when the game "crashed" it locked up and said server disconnected. It force resets the client than i load back up against the same opponent when the client locks up again at the player vs screen. No problem on my opponents before, after or during until I was about to win. This interaction has caused me to receive two loses on ranked against the same player. I have a screen shot of the opponents name. The time was about 13:47 UTC.

"Waiting for server" in the middle of draft
I was in the middle of a powered cube draft, at the end of pack 2, when my game suddenly wouldn't let me draft my pick and crashed abruptly, showing the "waiting for server" screen until I rebooted to find that almost all of the rest of my picks had been auto-selected by the client, destroying my draft.
I would appreciate a refund of my gems because I was unable to complete the experience I paid for.
Thank you.

In this case firdoch core is actually a creature - an artifact creature, but a creature. Nevertheless i can´t cast my requiting hex. What was wrong?

Underworld Breach/Lotus Petal and Priority
Today I discovered an unintended bug where a completely won position was lost becasue of priority being automatically passed while I was still able to take game actions.
Here is an example board state:
Underworld Breach is played on my side, I have a lotus petal in play and 7 cards in my graveyard, and am tapped out of lands; the cards in my graveyard are 6 lands and a brain freeze.
As the game works currently, the priority mechanism looks at my boardstate, decides that I cannot cast any spells by cracking my lotus petal to generate one mana, and passes priority. This means that i cannot ***** petal --> replay petal --> ***** petal --> cast brain freeze, unless I hold full control.
Unfortunately, I did not know this unintended mechanic existed, and lost 2 cube games this way, causing me to lose 2 games which I had won (Breach, petal, brain freeze, with enough cards in yard to loop). I understand that holding full control would stop this occurance, but believe that the system should be smart enough to not pass priority with a breach resolved and a spell I can cast. This cost me real money in the form of gems which I cannot recover.
