Magic: The Gathering Arena

The new feature is amazing, but how do I turn off the automatic shutdown when I actually want to play magic?
Also very good is the introduction of the freeze mode. Like looking at a digital painting.

I keep coming back to this, sometimes even after months of idling, my favorite game!

Multiple crashes during a single game. Can’t remember the last time it was this instable

Every two weeks they force out a multiple gigs update that you cannot download in the background.

Crashes constantly single the latest update. Every spel i cast force closes the game

The new update fixed the game being playable. Two thumbs up but since I only have the middle fingers available I guess those will have to do instead, just like you releasing this great new update.
Good job on playtesting on devices.
Thanks

The worst way to play magic, ever - toxic, hateful and divisive community and publishers politics; match fixing algorithms; greedy game economy.

The game is trash, a pure money grab. The real game is about daily awards, not playing MTG. The algorithm pairs you with decks you simply cant win, oh look at your jank deck, here are ten games against weenie decks! AVOID THIS HOT GARBAGE!

When you don’t buy diamonds the algorithm won’t let you win much. Freememium game pretending it isn’t

Fun game when it works. Brawl is a great mode for testing out new ideas for the paper version, but it certainly isn’t all that good.
Tried traditional draft for 3 times now with only 1 completed normally.
Getting stuck on loading screen waiting for about 10 minutes restarting only to find out the draft automatically completed.
Now it got stuck halfway through and when the server got back up, another auto pick completion.
Compared to spending gems, it’s about €15 per draft. I hope I get at least something back from reporting a bug. If you go watch a movie you’ll get your money back if the movie crashes halfway through.

I read a lot of older reviews here that describe the same problems I'm struggling with using this app.
Slow, freeze, not loading, crashing......
Its really a disaster! Not able to play without any problems.
Are you going to change anything? Or will it stay that way? Think its the latter case... seeing all the reviews!
A missed opportunity to make one of the best games ever available in an app.

Third level the animations start bugging out. Cannot see what i am doing which makes it unplayable.

Every time I try to buy gems so I can participate in the events. it gives me an error. Been happening for days. It won’t let me buy anything. Unfortunate for the developers as they are leaving money on the table. Please fix this bug, don’t seem to be the only one :(
meanwhile the lord of the rings event is going by and I won’t be able to participate.

The real endboss here: their server - after quite literally every patch there’s server trouble, guaranteed. Don’t throw your money at this game until they actually make it work smoothly.

I had to play very much against anti decks. When I changed my deck, the first 1-6 games went well, but then the anti decks came.
Even very rare decks were my opponent if it was an anti deck.
This not for a few days, but for months.
This relates to historic play and ranked.
And the most frustrating is that you can’t prove to mtg, because they say it is a random matchmaking system.
It frustrated me a lot, so I stopped playing the game.
I wonder if anyone else is has the same experience.

Stond op winnen in een draft
Loopt ie vast en ik heb verloren…
Doe er wat aan!

As stated above. stupid that you need to create a seperate account for this game. very old school solution and how secure is it?

Not sure which game the people that gave this dumpster fire a good review are playing because boy oh boy.
First of all the game is slow in every possible way. Every single screen switch greets you with a two second “Waiting for the Server” message. Every. Single. Screen.
Then they somehow managed to make my brand new iPad Pro struggle with the frame rate in-game. Every click or drag is slightly delayed, animation stutter and so on. And that’s not due to any next level graphics mind you. This has the UX of a 2000’s era card game.
This feels like someone high up at WOTC drunkenly stumbled into a bar one Saturday night, asked who wanted to create an MtG game and run the entire project, and then picked the one random person who happened to have their hand up at the time because they were trying to order a drink. It’s that bad.
