Not a bug. Type changes always happen before ability losing:
613.1. The values of an object’s characteristics are determined by starting with the actual object. For a
card, that means the values of the characteristics printed on that card. For a token or a copy of a
spell or card, that means the values of the characteristics defined by the effect that created it. Then
all applicable continuous effects are applied in a series of layers in the following order:
[...]613.1d Layer 4: Type-changing effects are applied. These include effects that change an object’s
card type, subtype, and/or supertype.
[...]613.1f Layer 6: Ability-adding effects, keyword counters, ability-removing effects, and effects that
say an object can’t have an ability are applied.

You are playing on the ladder, which is a tournament environment. And like in paper Magic, in a tournament people bring the best decks they can get their hands on. And there are only a handful of viable dacks for Standard high tier play. Platinum may not be the highest tier on Arena, but it is way above Casual play as you need an above 50% average win rate to advance.
The normal play queue SHOULD have more variety, but too many people only play on the ladder until they reach their desired rank and then switch to the play queue with the same deck. So even that queue is overrun with those decks. That is, however, an inherrent problem with Arena and its daily rewards, not Magic.
The most varied format on Arena is probably Brawl. Maybe try that format.

Count the cards in your hand again. There's 7, and you are required to put one away, leaving you with 6. There is no discard with a mulligan

Mana abilities are abilities that PRODUCE mana.
Plagon's ability is a normal activated ability, and is shut down by Faith's Fetters. So, no cheat, just a fundamental misunderstanding of an important MAGIC term on your part.
Also, no abilities are lost to Faith's Fetters. The card merely makes it impossible to use activated abilities.
--------
605.1. Some activated abilities and some triggered abilities are mana abilities, which are subject to
special rules. Only abilities that meet either of the following two sets of criteria are mana abilities,
regardless of what other effects they may generate or what timing restrictions (such as “Activate
only as an instant”) they may have.605.1a An activated ability is a mana ability if it meets all of the following criteria: it doesn’t
require a target (see rule 115.6), it could add mana to a player’s mana pool when it resolves, and
it’s not a loyalty ability. (See rule 606, “Loyalty Abilities.”)605.1b A triggered ability is a mana ability if it meets all of the following criteria: it doesn’t require
a target (see rule 115.6), it triggers from the activation or resolution of an activated mana ability
(see rule 605.1a) or from mana being added to a player’s mana pool, and it could add mana to a
player’s mana pool when it resolves. -

Do you know how creatures with prepared spells work? The creature has to be on the batlefield and get prepared. Only then can you cast the prepared spell. You cannot cast a prepared spell from hand as an alternative to casting the creature.
So to get the Emeritus of Woe's Swords to Plowshares spell, you have to get the Emeritus onto the battlefield, then you have to fulfil its prepared condition to get it prepared (meaning the ETB trigger has to resolve with an opponent having more creatures than you). And if it is prepared, you can cast the StP at any time, so long as the Emeritus stays prepared.

A deck's specific setting for sleeves and avatars overwrites the default. You have to change the settings for the deck, not the default.

It is precicely because it does not specify a card or spell that is must be a creature permanent on the battlefield.
109.2. If a spell or ability uses a description of an object that includes a card type or subtype, but
doesn’t refer to a specific zone or include the word “card,” “spell,” “source,” or “scheme,” it means
a permanent of that card type or subtype on the battlefield. -

Hexproof does not help against boardwipes, because those usually do not target, they simply kill everything. Even protection from EVERYTHING won't help, Day of Judgment will still kill such a creature.
115.10. Spells and abilities can affect objects and players they don’t target. In general, those objects and
players aren’t chosen until the spell or ability resolves. See rule 608, “Resolving Spells and
Abilities.”115.10a Just because an object or player is being affected by a spell or ability doesn’t make that
object or player a target of that spell or ability. Unless that object or player is identified by the
word “target” in the text of that spell or ability, or the rule for that keyword ability, it’s not a
target.115.10b In particular, the word “you” in an object’s text doesn’t indicate a target.
And you do not have to play every match Arena presents you. If, for whatever reason, you do not want to play that particular match (anymore) you can CONCEDE. Unless you are playing in a ranked match, there is NO DOWNSIDE to conceding. And if you are playing ranked, then you are in a tournament setting, and better be prepared to deal with whatever the opponent is throwing at you.

Only non-permanent cards can be cast for free this way. Permanents will be turned face up. Which will kill any planeswalker (because they don't enter and thus have no loyalty), base 0/0 creatures (because they do not get +1/+1 counters for being turned face up), and auras (because they are not attached).

Jumbo Cactuar cannot fulfil that condition. It attacks as a 1/7, and only afterwards gets +9999/+0. It may be an attacking 10000/7 at that point, but it attacked as a 1/7. To get the achievement you have to declare a creature as attacker that already has 21+ power at the time it gets declared as attacker. That's what it means to attack with a creature: to declare it as attacker during the declare attackers turn based action.

Did you control a Wizard at the time the targeted spell got countered?

It did have hexproof. But Nowhere to Run says to ignore hexproof and ward.

No cheat, no bug. Just your inability to read cards. Eddymurk Crab is a 7 mana Elemental, and thus Sunderflock's own cost reduction makes it cost only 2 mana.

Nowhere to Run is still a card in Standard, and will be for a long while longer.

No, it should not trigger for that. Putting a land onto the battlefield is not the same as playing a land. While both are essentially the same, playing a land specifically refers only to the special action of playing a land.

A sample size of 5 cannot give you useful information. The chance of going second 5 times in a row is 0,5^5=0,3125, so over 3%. That's also the chance of going first 5 times in a row.
You want to have a meaningful sample size, it has to be several HUNDRED samples at least. A test I myself actually did. 750 games, and the ratio of going first vs. going second was petty much 50:50. So no, there is no privileged treatment for people buying stuff. I'm a F2P player, I have not put a single cent into Arena, yet I go first as much as I go second, as it should be.

Wenn du die Karte nach dem Schaden spielen kannst, heißt das, dass der Grund durch den Schaden gestorben ist. Klingt nach Stimme des Sieges, welche den Gegner keine Zaubersprüche während des eigenen Zuges spielen läßt.

Marvel's Spiderman is available as Through the Omenpaths. Wizards did not get the licence to use the Spiderman IP for digital products, so they had to rename the set and the cards in it for Arena.

Not a bug. This is the interaction of layers of continuous effects. Type changing effects happen in layer 4 while ability losing happens in layer 6. Since effects are applied in the order of the layers, Ashaya and all other effects that include a type change (like Magus of the Moon, Kaito, Kudo, and many others) always happen before the ability creating the effect is removed. They always win out over ability losing effects. And due to rule 613.6, once an effect starts to apply, it gets to apply fully, even if parts of the effect happen after the ability creating the effect is removed.
From the card's gatherer rulings:
If you have less than 1 life, damage dealt to you reduces your life total further below 0 (as normal).
