    Huh? It creates a token so Flicker effects like Serum Snare or Unauthorized Exit will kill it.

    Also, there are a ton counterspells in Standard (frankly too many) atm.

    I routinely play blue tempo, blue control, and blue/black control and have had no issues dealing with this card.

    To DAC169, inherent in the utility of a full text chat is the ability to mute the chat so you wouldn't be giving up anything.

    As it stands, I have "mute emotes" on by default. The only time I ever unmute is to see the animations of new companions. ;)

    I hard agree. I had to quit a few games last week when the sound completely bugged out and a few handfuls of games in prior patches when either graphic glitches made the board inaccurate and/or unreadable or it completely stopped responding reliably to mouse inputs.

    It would've been great to simply say something like "glitched out, restarting, back in 1 minute".

    If you're concerned about "language", aside from basic profanity filters, you can also log some sampling of chat for moderation review as all the big streaming platforms do.

    All of this stuff is both bog-standard commodity moderation policies and bog-standard commodity tech these days and its "lack of" in Arena shows a very low commitment and funding bar by WotC to this platform's success.

    Rezzahan is correct. Cards returned from any final mulligan state are placed on the bottom of the deck--not reshuffled.

    You are aware Rezzahan that "towers of jank" decks are routinely banned from FNMs not because of their lack of probabilistic success, but for the time-wasting and lack of quality play that results from their use.

    There's a reason the designers of a magic format choose a conformant standard deck size and there's a good deal of thought put into card designs, bans, points costs (i.e. Highlander), and now brackets wrt that standard deck size.

    Arena should, by default, only allow on-format or near-format (say ~15%+) decks to be played. I personally snap-concede to any deck greater than +20% off-format. Not because I'm concerned about winning/losing, but because it's very-much an apples to oranges competition.

    If players want to play a "jank tower" of 100+ cards in a 60 card format or want to be open to playing against a "jank tower" (the chaos _can_ be fun in small doses), then Arena should include a simple "on/off-format" checkbox for match-making. Regardless of WotC's official line on the matter, this is no different from the everyday practices at LGSs and home games around the world for years prior to Arena's release.

    Amen. It's long past time for some common sense real-time moderation tools available to every player in-game.

    In my years playing Arena, WotC's "Report A Player" form https://mtgarena-support.wizards.com/hc/en-us/articles/360025191111-Report-a-Player has done absolutely nothing to curb trolling. I no longer bother to use it.

    I've resorted to keeping a private ban-list of trolls I simply refuse to play with and snap-concede. If WotC isn't actively going to take action against trolls, then empower the players to do it. Empower every player with a few "ban-slots" for players they will never be matched against outside of official "events".

    After all this time, my personal ban-list is less than 10 people, but a few bad apples ruins the gestalt experience for all involved.

    I would not say as a single card Unstoppable Slasher is OP, but it is most certainly OP in the current meta.

    It far too cheap & easy to turn its ability into a single-hit-near-win or, a literal, single-hit-win regardless of the rest of the game-state.

    It's far to easy to make it unblockable (e.g. +1U "Enter the Enigma") to get a 50% damage single-hit or to combo it with Bloodletter of Aclazotz for a one-hit-win. It's self re-summon is just icing on the cake.

    We've have the blind 2-card-insta-win combo of Bloodletter of Aclazotz + Rush of Dread since OTJ and it's just amazing how far downhill WotC design has gone so quickly.

    I point a general "lazy game design" finger at ANY card with percentage effects.

    I have not experienced an outright crash, but I have been experiencing many audio glitches in the most recent patch on macOS Sonoma v14.3.

    Based on a little research, I believe this is an issue with Unity (the underlying game engine), but nevertheless it's very frustrating as I must be sure no other potential audio-producing app is running prior to starting Arena.

    FWIW, I've reported a handful of players over the years to that web form with accompanying screenshot evidence etc. and as far as I can tell it's made ZERO impact. You get an auto-generated email with no information other than WotC won't be able to tell you anything regarding any disciplinary actions taken against the player.

    Without exception, those same handful of folks are still on Arena months (sometimes years) later and still pulling those same unsportsmanlike antics.

    I now just snap-concede to known jerks/ropers and have stopped reporting them. It negatively effects my record, but it preserves my sanity. Honestly, if WotC would just give us like just 7 "blacklist slots" that would really improve quality of life in Arena.

    Amen.

    It's so disheartening to have witnessed all the efforts from folks like LRR's Ben Wheeler https://wiki.loadingreadyrun.com/index.php/Benjamin_Wheeler to get alternative "casual" formats into Arena only to have them spoiled by WotC's lack of leadership and common-sense software product management.

    I just had this happen and can confirm the sound bug description and the steps to recreate it are spot-on.

    FWIW, running on MacOS Sonoma v14.3.

    I did not experience this in the prior patch though I can't recall ever being in a game with two of the same unlocked Room enchantments on the board.

    Attached is a screenshot with two Dollmaker's Shop "stacked" rooms for the recent game where I experienced the bug.

    Unless you're playing against off-format decks with > 75 cards (60 cards + 15 sideboard), an all-creatures deck will not have any sort of reliable win-rate in the current meta.

    The closest would be a g/r Explore-Dino deck, but you have to hit just the right Explore cards and you need to be up against control decks that haven't hit their kill/counter spells after the first 4 turns.

    A g/u Manfest Deck can do this too, but it must, likewise, get lucky with the library ordering.

    I feel Leyline of Resonance should be banned for simply allowing Turn 2 kills in Standard, but the general dominance of Mono red in the meta where's there's, essentially, no decision making is also "bad Magic".

    Atm, I snap-concede to ANY Leyline of Resonance on turn zero 'cuz there's no point in continuing to play a game where I'm virtually guaranteed to lose without ANY decisions being made by either player.

    FWIW, you can report individual player conduct here: https://mtgarena-support.wizards.com/hc/en-us/articles/360025191111-Report-a-Player , but I've never seen it have ANY effect.

    I just now snap-concede to known-jerks and ropers.

    It's not "right", but we have no other choice (atm) if we care about actually playing good games of Magic on Arena.

    MTG has, historically, had a few "blind" instant-win combos (e.g. Splinter Twin), but in modern (not "Modern") Standard, there should be absolutely NONE of them. Nor should "turn 2 wins" even be possible.

    Unfortunately, OTJ broke with that blind combo tradition and Duskmourn has only increased it with the Manifest Dread mechanic and Leyline of Resonance.

    Standard Magic (atm), I not what I consider "good Magic" and I've stopped playing it competitively.

    It's not fun when the "peak meta" (atm) are two aggro decks bashing past each other with route-memory plays and the winner being decided, essentially, by a coin-flip.

    As a bit of a follow-up, multiple restarts don't seem to solve the problem.

    Whatever is happening with the audio (at least on my Macs) with the recent patch seems to be some interaction with Arena and the current audio processing state of the system.

    I only get the bug when I've had other audio source processes Apple Music and/or VLC running (but not playing) when starting Arena. I should also try this with a browser with a video plug-in (say YT), but haven't done tests yet.

    I suspect this may be something isolated to MacOS Sonoma and Unity and not, directly, with Arena.
