Why is there no announcement about Jumpstart 25 yet? Literally anything.

FDN Constructed MWM - We're hearing you clearly here, and we're going to be changing this to an all-access event.
This was never intended to drive crafting or pack purchase; it was a last-minute change on our part due to scheduling issues, and we didn't think enough about how that change would impact players. We wanted this event to be a place for players to enjoy this fun, new set. Changing this to all access lets us hit that goal better.
Is there any word on what the fix will be? I'm assuming (and hoping) that those affected will be granted the items that they are missing/haven't received?
When this fix goes out, all affected players will get all of the items they've missed out on, yes
Why is there no update or even mention of the mastery pass issue? Currently with no fix I am missing so much and won't even have enough eyes for the mastery unlocks. Every single ticket has been closed by them with a "we're working on it". Meanwhile they are selling the next mastery pass. Frustrated.
I'm sorry you were hit by that bug. Our latest updates there are on Twitter, and the status is still that we've stopped the problem from happening to new players, but are continuing to work on a fix for the players who bought the pass during the window where the bug occurred. We expect to have a fix for players in your state out this week.
Honest question: What should we do here? Pulling it from pack collation feels pretty bad for anyone who wants it for Bo3 Standard (or heck, there's people playing that deck in Timeless right now). But I get that opening one feels bad if you're a Bo1-focused Standard player.
What's the more player-friendly option here?
One of the devs on the Arena team has the in-game name NotVeryGoodAtMagic. If you see that in mythic orange, don't believe it.
Quick update on this: We have deployed a fix that means new Mastery Pass purchases will work properly, players that purchased between 10/15 and that fix are, unfortunately, still unable to properly earn Mastery Pass rewards. We are continuing to work to solve that problem, and we will ensure that all players get all of the Mastery Pass rewards they have earned.

Resolved - We have deployed an update that fixes the bug with Duskmourn: House of Horror Set Mastery Pass rewards. Unfortunately, players who purchased between October 14, 2024 and today's update will still not receive rewards as intended.
We are continuing to work towards a solution, and are committed to ensuring that affected players will receive every Mastery reward they have earned.
Oct 23, 18:19 UTC
Identified - We're aware of an issue affecting players who purchased the Duskmourn: House of Horror Set Mastery on MTG Arena after October 15, 2024 not receiving their rewards. We are working on a fix, and will ensure players receive every reward they've earned.

Weird they didn’t address the mastery rewards thing. Has it been addressed before?
We are still looking into the reports of issues with the Mastery Pass; more info there as we get it
The Patch Notes are great, but the actual patch would be better. Still waiting...
; )
Patch was delayed, but it is live as of ~20 min ago. If you're actively playing, you may need to relaunch to pick it up. (Make sure to use the launcher on desktop, or check the app stores on mobile)
Anyone know who they are?
Ian Adams, Design Manager & Product Owner of Card Sets, is usually the one writing the Patch Notes.
He's a treasure.
Ian is the one writing (most of) the funny bits in the patch notes, yes. The rest of us also write other bits that are not as entertaining (because we're not as funny as Ian).
And you're 100% right that he's a treasure
Hey, thanks for the report! We've looked into this issue generally, and we don't see evidence in our data of players missing Mastery Pass rewards.
If you're still seeing this issue after closing and re-opening the client, please do contact CS ( https://mtgarena-support.wizards.com/hc/en-us/requests/new ) and specify "Account Issues", so they can look into your account directly
This bug made me lose (there was no bug)
It's this sort of thing that really makes my day! (And makes it hurt when there really is a bug, as if it didn't already!). #wotc_staff

📝 Patch notes available soon after.
I’ve played my Rip spawn hunter deck in brawl and the bug happened 3 times the first two times I conceded cause I thought it was going to draw my deck and I was going to lose. The third time I let it play out cause I wanted to see if it actually would and it stopped about 27 cards I won that game and haven’t played it in since. I’m hoping that’s good enough.
You should be fine, yes. That behavior would clearly look non-exploitive in the way we check
Sorry for the disruption here; this bug is now fixed. (If you're actively playing, you may need to restart to pick up the change)
