Good old anaphora resolution, the blackest of linguistic magics. The parser asks "What are 'those spells'?" It walks back through the sentence, and sees "nonland cards", and didn't get the semantics of "from among them". Thanks for the report, I've got a fix ready. #wotc_staff.

With an empty stack, the settings the client sends to the game server make it so that you do not get priority during your opponent's postcombat main phase (with the normally correct justification that you can do whatever you were going to do during the end step). The problem comes up only if the last thing your opponent does is get a permanent that has an end-step trigger.

Basically in order to not make this a spaghetti-code one-situation-exception, we need to pretty heavily rework our approach to how the game gives you priority by default. This is a pretty big undertaking.

Also, we're still working on future cardsets, bugfixes, etc. This problem is significant, but it's not the only task vying for our limited attention. #wotc_staff

PSA: 'NETDECKING' IS A PART OF MAGIC. PEOPLE PLAYING DECKS THAT YOU DON'T LIKE IS ALSO A PART OF MAGIC.


Chill, folks.

This is usually caused by software called Killer Network Manager. It comes by default on some Alienware machines. Fully removing it will resolve the issue, and Killer Networking support may have other ideas as well if you prefer to keep it installed: https://www.killernetworking.com/killersupport/contact

If you don't see Killer services running in Task Manager, contact us ...
