2. issues with the game for new/ old players

   There are a ton of issues that are effecting new players and old players that dont have time for best of 3. First is the hand smoothing garbage, it is rally bad as since it has been brought in the shuffler wins more then the players do when playing a crafted deck. It has been about a month at 30 mins a day since I had a game where I didn't have to mulligan twice. And even after the mulligan more often then not its either all lands or no lands. Last 3 games were 17 card land run, 14 card land run, struggling to get 3rd land by turn 9. I have brought in 7 other card players that came in played for a week and then left because of your shuffler. BEST SOLUTION WOULD BE MAKE A GAME MODE FOR BEST OF 1 THAT DOES NOT HAVE HAND SMOOTHING. This would also prevent someone being able to declare you violated the ToS and being able to initiate a legal issue. I have been with MTG since the beginning and I can see that you don't have anyone that actually understnds the game on payroll. MTG was built on epic gam play, while this turn 4 wins may help your profit for now it will kill you in the long run as turn 4-5 games are boring and players will leave because they will realize that there really is nothing there . ANd the power creep is getting ridiculous, you banned fires of invention declaring it was too powerful because of free casts, but it had a lot of built in controls like not being able to ply on your opponents turns, only 3 spells on your turns and limited to the number of lands you have in play. But now you have omniscience that can be cheated into play on turn 3 and has no controls on it, someone can cast any spell in their hand for free at anytime they can cast it. unlimited combos, unlimited turns ( which is another thing you banned cards to prevent ) . Power creep almost killed MTG just after the ice age block. I have been a loyal follower of MTG and I would really hate to see it go down, I know for myself since hand smoothing came in I have not spent any money on any MTG product.

3. impending is not a creature

   if the impending ability specifically states that it's not a creature while it has any time counters on it, why is it that it gains the benefits of when you cast your next creature spell put a +1/+1 counter on it? Does Impending count as a creature or not? If not then why does it get counters ? And if it does why can't it be countered by counter target creature spell? You guys really need to get your act together, instead of worrying so much about trying to rope in new whiney players that wont stay when you have no choice but to balance the game, why not focus on retaining players by fixing the **** in the game , like the many cards that don't follow the rules and how bad the shuffler is?

4. Cheaters

   Game is full of cheaters using tools to manipulate draws/hands/decks. There’s absolutely no reason a 200 card deck gives the person everything they need. There’s absolutely no way every piece of removal someone needs gets into their hand. It’s very obvious when they cheat too, they look at hand, look at nothing, look back at hand, then nothing, and suddenly have a spell to cast. You don’t want us seeing game logs because then you know we could determine more easily who’s cheating and who isn’t. You don’t have a real way to handle cheaters, so you just brush it under the rug. On top of the cheaters, we have to deal with your rigged matchmaking and your rigged shuffler. How do I know my draws aren’t also being rigged by cheaters? Why do I get more lands when I already have 8 on the battlefield, yet my opponents are not? I made it to diamond tier 2 before your win/loss/win/loss mechanic kicked in to try to and convince me to spend money. Your tactics are predatory and downright despicable and disgusting. Went ahead and provided screenshots of the cheaters I reported since you never seem to do anything about it.

5. Stats prove Arena is a joke.

   There are so many things it's tough to know where to start.

   1. Roping is out of control. Get roped constantly when opponent has to mulligan or the game isn't going their way.
   2. Algorithm is terrible. Why do we have to play the same 3 decks constantly?
   3. Randomness of shuffler is unrealistic at best.
   4. Lands? It's either too many or none.

   I personally believe there is coding to benefit some over others. Say people that spend lots of money over those that don't. I have actually been taking notes with a friend. Two different accounts playing the exact same decks. One account gets all the problems listed above 9 out of 10 games. The other gets perfect draws, curve and a better variety of opponents 9 out of 10 times. It's quite baffling and embarrassing for Wizards to look at the data. Anyways, we all know nothing will ever get done as long as players keep spending. Just wanted to feel better by getting my frustration out there.

6. Thunderbond vanguard and user bans

   Please remove or ban thunderbond vanguard. It’s absolutely busted and makes the game completely unfair. Every game vs white is dumb because they’re going to play this three mana, oh look I went from nothing to swinging for over 100 damage, win the game out of nowhere card.

   Another suggestion, is enable users to ban one or two cards in the format. So essentially users pick a card and the matchmaker will not matchmake you against decks with the chosen card. Then MTG arena admins can look at the statistics of what cards the majority of players hate as a form of crowd sourcing problems with balance or un-fun cards.

   You guys kinda already are trying to find out if users are having a good time or not, but the happy smile vs sad face system kinda will give skewed results because players will likely just put a sad face every time they lose. Their bad experience could be a problem with the shuffler, an unfair card, or something the other player was doing like playing too slowly.

7. Fix Arena

   Fix Arena - The arena is ....... there are no words to describe the absolute dumpster fire of manipulated gameplay that arena is - I guess since WOTC doesn't really care about the quality of the gameplay, just that they few people who actually spend real money on pixel worthless products, keeps the cash flowing. The is no ingame economy, they matches are so badly manipulated to ensure as close to a 50% win rates as possible to keep the snowflakes happy and spending money to try to become the next "pro gamer", the shuffler seems to have had a mental break from reality and ensures that the 1 of 60 in the deck appears very regularly in the opening hand or the top 10 cards is beyond probability, a 15 land deck somehow floods around a 50% ratio. They don't care, they have sent forums to 3rd party platforms and they never read anything on them - since Beta the players have shown that there are issues with the core of the game, but WOTC just makes more "Alchemy" cards and power creeps the sets to ensure cash flow. Even the ingame daily rewards have become worthless - more skins and valueless garbage. Oh well no one will read this so FU WOTC.

8. Title: MTG Arena is Killing the Game We Love

   I’ve played Magic: The Gathering for 18 years. I’ve put in thousands of hours and spent more money than I want to admit. Arena is the only way I can play now, and it feels like Wizards is using that against us.

   Let’s just be honest. MTG Arena isn’t built to reward skill or time. It’s built to squeeze your wallet.

   The economy is trash. You need 20 or more rares and a stack of mythics just to build one real deck. Want to try something new? Too bad. No trading. No dust system. No refunds. Just keep buying packs and hope you pull something usable. In paper Magic, at least you could trade or sell. In Arena, you get nothing back. Just digital cards locked behind a paywall.

   "It seems pretty difficult to build a card collection." — r/MagicArena
   "This game is a money sink with no soul." — Twitter
   "The algorithm is awful... it consistently gives you games you have no chance of winning." — MTG Arena feedback forums

   Climbing to Mythic is a joke. You grind for hours every month just to get knocked back down and do it all again. There’s no real payoff. The meta is boring. Same decks on repeat. White lifegain. Mono red. Karn. Bolas. The names shift but the decks don’t. You either copy the broken deck or you lose.

   Historic used to be creative. Alchemy ruined it. Now it’s just digital-only junk cards, overpowered garbage, and zero balance. No bans. No fixes. Just more broken mechanics shoved in to push new product.

   This isn’t just me. A 2024 study by 1337.games ranked Arena the most unplayable game on Reddit. Out of all gaming communities, Arena had the highest number of complaints. Almost 30 percent of all posts on r/MagicArena called the game unplayable.

   They made over 1.08 billion dollars last year. A huge chunk of that came from Arena. That money came from us. The players. And in return, we got a broken platform, a rigged ladder, and an economy that feels like a trap.

   This is not the Magic we grew up on. It’s not what Richard Garfield created. Magic used to reward creative decks, smart play, and deep strategy. Arena rewards pay-to-win. It punishes innovation. It ignores player feedback. It sells nostalgia and gives you a slot machine.

   I’m not writing this because I want a lawsuit or some payout. I’m writing this because I want the game fixed. I want to play a version of Magic that respects my time and money.

   Here’s what we deserve:

   A fair economy that rewards effort and gameplay

   Monthly bans in all formats to shake things up

   Real incentives for original decks, not just copying the meta

   A better new player experience

   Full transparency in matchmaking and the shuffler

   If you’re reading this and you’re sick of getting screwed, reach out. I’m organizing. I’m done being quiet.

   Email me: noreservations72032@gmail.com

   I screenshotted this. If it gets deleted, I’ll post it again. This isn’t just my fight. There are thousands of us who feel the same way. The more of us that speak up, the harder we are to ignore.

   We want the game back. The real one.
   The one that treated players like people, not paychecks.

   And yes, I know you can see who posted this. That’s fine. I’m not hiding. I meant every word.

9. 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.

10. all things broken

    Having been around since the birth of MTG, you guys need to pull your heads out of your own arses , because you are repeating the mistakes of the past. I get wanting to want a big profit margin but the way things are headed you are going to put yourselves out of a job. The power creep and catering to the little whiners that think the win is more then the game is going to help temporarily, but is going to do more damage then good in the long run. What has already happened was MTG did this exact thing, when they realized that power creep needed to be stopped , the little whiners left and a lot of the guys that were playing for the game had left long before. In a nutshell thier bottom line took a huge hit when they figured out the game needs balance and the only way power creep could end was in basically a land that says you win when you play it. I love this game and would hate to see it get tanked because of greed. Focus on a quality product and the profits will take care of themselves. I really dont see arena lasting very long with the way the match maker and shuffler are and the fact that you are not fixing the bugs.
