Thanks guys for looking into it. 

Also, I removed Blinkmoth from my BU ninja deck to make it usable in historic play and now it won't appear in any searches.

That's expected, unfortunately. 2XM was inadvertently removed from the list of sets that should be legal in Historic, so it's no longer showing up when you look for Historic cards

There hasn't been any intentional change here. Thanks for the call out, and we're looking into it.

Edit: This should now be fixed; sorry about the disruption! (If you're in-client, you may need to restart it to pick up the fix)

Sorry about this! There was an error that prevented matchmaking for about 20 min earlier. Everything should be back to normal now

Thanks for the report! It looks like there is something going wrong here, so we've temporarily disabled these bundles in the store. We'll get them fixed up and get you the styles you purchased as quickly as we can!

Ugin, Nexus and Field are still banned despite being perfectly okay by today's power level. Tbh, Oko probably is too.

I really doubt they'll ban anything. Nadu is annoying but not egregiously strong compared to other hell queue commanders.

There's basically no overlap between commander and brawl. In brawl ...

Ugin and Field weren't power level bans; they were banned for ubiquity. They went into basically every deck, which ended up making games feel more similar. One of the goals of Brawl as a format is to offer wide variety, and Ugin and Field worked against that.

It's unlikely it'll ever get banned. Case in point, Golos is banned in Commander but is perfectly playable in Brawl. They'll probably keep increasing Nadu's power level until it's in the depths of hell queue so it doesn't bother 'normal' decks ever again.

Yes, this is basically right. No plans to ban Nadu, and all the evidence suggests we can use the matchmaking to keep him constrained to pairing with people who are also running high-power commanders.

Sounds like this was just a bug. Arena keeps a file on your device of which bans you've seen, so it can know which ones are new. This sounds like that file went missing or failed to load, and so it showed you all the bans (bolt, ritual, etc.) as if they were new.

For at least one internal tester in this state, they were able to force-kill the app, restart their phone, and then successfully launch. This was just one report, though; your mileage may vary.

Hope yall have a good day

If you all are having a bad day, we're having a bad day. Or, at least, a busy day trying to fix it. Working hard with the engineers to understand what's up

Comment

We're looking into this. It would be really interesting to hear from players who are/aren't crashing:
A) Are you on Android?
B) What OS version are you on?

Edit: We now believe we have this issue solved with a new update for Android players. Apologies for the disruption here!
