About same. KHM had 4x copies of the five Rare cards from the Kaldheim Theme Booster. This has 5x Mystical Archive ICRs. I haven't seen anyone play theme booster rares but mystical archives have bombs.
If 5x icrs are only rare/mythic that's great, otherwise it sucks.
The Mystical Archive ICRs are only pulled from rare/mythic cards
Read moreHi Jay, I hope you don't mind if I let you know of some other significant mobile app bugs that can be replicated against Sparky. You don't need to reply, just want you to be aware of them and hopefully pass these bugs on to the mobile dev team to have a look at them.
There are two other significant bugs with the mobile app (Android and iOS).
One concerns the mobile app stacking/grouping the same permanents with activated abilities (e.g. Usher of the Fallen). The app only allows you to select or activate the permanent on top, you are not able to select or activate any other permanent in the group/stack:
The other bug concerns a spell or ability targeting a permanent that is off screen. When you try to drag the row of permanents t...
Thanks for the report; I've passed it on to QA to investigate further.
Yes, this is a bug. I've avoided making comments on previous threads on this issue until we had figured out what the exact problem was and identified a fix. Sadly, our release cycle demands that the fix will come with Strixhaven's release. But we did solve it, huzzah. The short version is that some pretty fundamental changes we made to support Learn caused replacement effects to behave incorrectly in cases where multiple simultaneous zone transfers to the battlefield occur. Yeah, sounds crazy, and I suppose I could go into it deeper when we reveal another relevant card in this story. #wotc_staff
This is a bug, and it should be solved with the Strixhaven release. You can fix it with the “pretend cast” method you mention or by opening up a library or graveyard browser. Apologies for the issue.
(In case you're curious, it’s stuck thinking you’re dragging a card, so won’t let you click the buttons.)
My favorite story of finding an arena bug wasn't actually finding an arena bug, but was instead Arena finding a bug.
When they first implemented [[Conqueror's Galleon]] from Ixalan, every time it would attack, after combat... it died. It just died. Went to the graveyard.
Conqueror's Galleon back then read, "When Conqueror's Galleon attacks, transform it at end of combat." This meant that it was still the same permanent. Meaning that it was still under all of the same effects. Meaning that it had been crewed. Meaning that it was a creature. And since Conqueror's Foothold doesn't have power and toughness, its toughness defaulted to 0 and it died instantly.
This was found before print, which is why Galleon exiles itself to transform.
The follow-up story to that (credit to my wife for reminding me!) is that our testers also found the bug with Hostage Taker that resulted in its Oracle update (adding the word "another" to prevent it causing a mandatory draw if it is the only creature or artifact on the battlefield), but sadly that testing happened a little too late to get to print. It's a somewhat more esoteric situation than "do the thing you'd expect to be able to do" that Conqueror's Galleon has! #wotc_staff
Last banned card I believe has been confirmed
[[Abundant Harvest]]
Abundant Harvest will not be banned in Historic.
No more bonuses for getting both? MTGA is getting greedier...
The pet was moved to the Onyx bundle instead.
The schedule says Kaldheim Quick Draft runs until April 2nd, but in the client there's now a 46h clock appearing, so which one is it?
The Quick Draft Kaldheim now live has its end time currently misconfigured to end March 26 instead of April 2. We'll be making a fix on March 25 to correct it, at which point the countdown clock will go away. Apologies for the confusion.
They should be legal in Historic Brawl.
Historic Brawl bans 4 cards from the Mystic Archive. (3 from the same list as Historic, including Demonic Tutor, plus one additional card) 4 of the cards banned in Historic will be legal in Historic Brawl, including Swords to Plowshares.
We're aware of the discrepancy, and we intend to extend the event to April 2 as described on the calendar, once some higher-priority fixes get out the door.
Found A workaround, see my other comment! A Password reset kills the blackscreen upon first start.
edit: But, it reappears after one game is finished :(
If this gets you far enough in that you can access the "Settings Gear" in the upper-right, try hitting "Unlock Play Modes" following the instructions here: https://twitter.com/Wizards_Help/status/1374785031256825856
