Rope Gone, No Timer
Opponent Rope is over, But timer disappeared. I am being forced to quit the game and lose. This is an absolute injustice. So frustrated especially because i was going to win.

Grievous Wounds
Grievous Wounds states " Whenever enchanted player is dealt damage, they lose half their life, rounded up."
Since using it in MTG ARENA I have noticed that it only activates when you deal combat damage to the player. This should be a simple fix in coding to resolve this issue. Please look into this and fix it <32 votes -
Complaint and proposed solution
The game is a complete scam. Especially the UB sets. I've played three drafts now. Even though I had strong decks, the drafts ended 0-3, 2-3, and 0-3. I spent a bunch of gems on that. Why hasn't the algorithm been revised in years? Why are players so obviously being ripped off? Your opponent topdecks every card from the top of their deck while you only draw lands. And then you get warned when you report bugs like this.
A simpler and more generous refund system should be introduced, where you automatically get your coins or gems back if you have a negative draft result. That would be fair compensation.

Repeated cheating or horrible coding?
I have reported and there is no action being taken. By doing nothing WotC is passively encouraging cheating. I strongly suggest everyone flood their X (twitter) and Facebook pages with messages asking why WotC is supporting cheating. I bet you "Uservoice" isn't doing their job to fix the issue and keeping their client "Wizards of the Coast" in the dark about how badly they have screwed up. Make your voice heard on other platforms that this ****** TechSupport company "Uservoice" cant keep Wizards in the dark about it. Then if WotC does nothing, they will be ACTIVELY supporting cheaters.

Can't make purchase, store hangs on "Waiting for the server"
Running MTGA on Mac OS 15.6, it's impossible to purchase the Planeswalker Bundle. When I confirm the purchase, the application hangs indefinitely on the "Waiting for the server..." modal.
Restarting the app, repairing game files, logging out and back in, and reinstalling Arena did not fix this issue.

Drawing either almost only lands or only no lands
Lately I experience the following situation disproportionately often:
After the starting hand (which seems to be normal), I either draw almost no lands (like 1 out of 7-10 cards) or almost nothing but lands (maybe 1-3 no land cards out of 10 or so). This is in decks which roughly have the standard mix of 40% lands vs. 60% no land cards.
Obviously , this is a situation that can arise, but the frequency at which it does seems against all probability. Frankly, it feels like the drawing/shuffling algorithm is somehow buggy.
It is annoying that this has happened repeatdely during rated games (i.e. paid draft events) and the mere frequency is starting to really take the fun out of the game.Lately I experience the following situation disproportionately often:

error updating data, please check your connection and try again
While waiting to log in, I end up with this message "error updating data, please check your connection and try again" after "retrieving asset manifest".
Nothing has changed (from PC or ISP) from the day before (4/18) as this began yesterday (4/19).
Apparently this has been an known issue for some time.

Drowner of Truth mana auto-tapper jumps over every possible hoop it can do avoid paying colorless mana for a beneficial effect
Over several games I have confirmed that the mana auto-tapper views Downer of Truth's text "When you cast this spell, if {Colorless} was spent to cast it, create two Eldrazi Spawn tokens" as a negative that should be avoided at all costs rather than a boon, I had a bunch of mana and artifacts that could tap for colorless or ping self for 1 to do a color, the auto-tapper pinged me for 7 health rather than generate spawn.

Booster turor does not reveal cards
Booster tutor does not do what it has written in text box.
It reads: Open sealed Magic Booster pack, reveal cards, choose one of them and put it into your hand.
What it does: Open sealed Magic booster, put one card into your hand.It should reveal card selection to opponent to provide information about mana and card availability and also it should reveal the choice.
I played multiple events and the card does not work all its text as it should.1 vote -
Cannot use some collected cards in decks
Steps to reproduce:
- Open the game client, go to Decks, create a new deck.
- Select the Standard format, filter for collected cards.
- Some collected cards will appear dulled out (brightness is reduced like they are not collected).
- Hovering over the counters above a card in the list will display "Owned" in a tooltip.
- Add a collected (dulled out) card to deck, then save the deck.
- A warning message appears saying the collected card is not in my collection.I have tried:
- Restarting the game client and the Steam client
- Restarting my computer
- Options -> Report a Bug -> Repair Game Files (then restarted my computer after it finished)Platform:
Steam, Windows 11, Game Version 2026.58.0.11950.1257485Actual results:
Some collected cards cannot be used in a deck. The UI gives contradictory info about whether such cards are collected or uncollected. The warning on save says the collected card is not in my collection.Expected results:
Owned cards should be usable in a deck, and the UI should present consistent info about which cards are collected or uncollected.No workarounds found.
Steps to reproduce:
- Open the game client, go to Decks, create a new deck.

Glissa, Herald of Predation is broken
My opponent had Glissa, Herald of Predation as his commander. He was able to do all three of the options on each combat, even though it says choose one. There were no cards to cause it to trigger multiple times, so it's clearly bugged.

Demilich does not consider perpetual modifiers on cards in the graveyard.
When Demilich effect triggers, allowing you to cast a card from the graveyard, it does not allow you to pay the alternative cost applied by a perpetual card effect (i.e. mana of any colour can be spent to cast this); it required me to play white mana (on a modified light's hope, conjured by Tome of the Infinite.
As far as I can tell I should be able to cast the cost paying any colour of mana as indicated by the modified card.

Targeting bug with Mockingbird
Mockingbird reads 'you may have this creature enter as a copy of any creature on the battlefield with mana value LESS THAN OR EQUAL TO the amount of mana spent to cast this creature'. I play Mockingbird, paying 2U (total of 3 mana). On my field I have:
Druneth, Reviver of the Hive (GU = 2MV)
Avatar of the Resolute (GG = 2MV)
Pond Prophet ({G/U}{G/U} = 2MV)I'm unable to target ANY of them. They do not appear as clickable (highlighted). I'm also unable to target any of the creatures on my opponents' boards (except their 2/2 zombie druid tokens for some reason). Attempts to click on any of them does nothing. This breaks my deck entirely as it depends on being able to pay variable mana costs. Please fix this.

Blighted Nightmare and Garvitic Herald Interaction
Gravitoc herald allows to seek a permanent (non land) with mana value 3 or less. Moreover it allows within the same turn to play that card for a warp cost of 0.
Using that I can find blighted nightmare (assuming it’s the only permanent with cost 3 or less in my deck or that I luck out and find it). Blighted nightmare comes back to my hand if I trigger its secondary effect (blight a creature, return one from graveyard with mana value equal or lower than highest thoughness on my board).
That means I should be able to infinitely cycle blighted nightmare as long as I have creatures to feed it (warp for 0, trigger secondary effect, blighted nightmare comes back to hand, repeat).
I tried this in game and after the first time I play blighted nightmare for a warp cost of 0, once it comes back to my hand I can no longer warp it despite the fact that Gravitic herald started the card gets a 0 warp cost till end of the turn.
Appreciate your attention.

Bug / Wildcards lost
"Yesterday, I used wildcards to craft 3 copies of Kona, Rescue Beastie for a new deck and played several matches with it. Today, the game is telling me that the deck is incomplete.
Upon checking my collection, the 3 copies of Kona are missing, even though my wildcard count has decreased accordingly. Could you please check my account logs and restore the missing cards or the spent wildcards? Thank you!"

Arena kicked me out of the game and then wouldn't let me perform actions.
Arena kicked me out of the game. When I exited the game and reconnected, I was unable to click anything on the battlefield. I would like to be refunded for this draft.

deck builder - Bugged decklist checking
I have my client open and I noticed at the bottom of my selection of decks that on of my decks I have used in the past suddenly says I am missing a card and it is no longer in my collection. I go into the decklist to find the card but it still shows 100/100 for the quantity. No recent ban changes that I can see have affected this list. See attached
