Latency/Networking Issues - Resolved

Update: We deployed a client update Friday, Sept 18 at Noon PT to further address some of these issues. Patch notes are available, here. We're continuing to monitor the situation.

We deployed several updates to alleviate some of the issues related to latency and/or network errors (blackscreens, stuck on "waiting for the server", disconnects, etc.). While this appears to have improved throughout the course of the day, we will continue to monitor the situation overnight and make additional changes if necessary.

Debug Console - REsolved

Update: We deployed a client update Friday, Sept 18 at Noon PT to correct this issue. Patch notes are available, here. We're continuing to monitor the situation.

Some players have inadvertently ended up on the "Debug Console" (a blue window with their screen name across the top, and various match configuration options such as timers, decks, battlefields, etc.). Players who are in this state do not have access to any of these tools. Regardless, this is not indented behavior and we're working to ensure do not end up on this console.

Players who experience this can restart their client to get out of this state.

Zendikar Battlefield and Mouse Detection - Resolved

Update: We deployed a client update Friday, Sept 18 at Noon PT to fix this issue. Patch notes are available, here. We're continuing to monitor the situation.

Under certain circumstances, players may be unable to target/"mouse over zoom" lands and/or planeswalkers on the opponent's side of the battlefield. This is a high priority bug for us, and we are currently testing a fix.
