Magic: The Gathering Arena

The bot is bugged
Hello, I'm trying decks against the bot, but it's impossible to finish a game. After a few rounds, the bot does nothing and keeps saying "Hmm..." it's been doing this since the update. Has anyone else had this problem?

You folks talking about doing the intro/tutorial stuff before you can play vs real people? Cause I hopped onto basic sparky earlier today and it was working fine

Not always, but it constantly stops reacting to stuff and basically ropes you forever (with no timeouts) until you quit. A bit annoying when you're trying to test out some eldraine stuff.

It happens to me too since the eldraine update.

Came here to make sure I wasn't alone.

Sparky the AI is deep learning from players at an accelerated pace.

She's learned how to rope. Maybe next she'll learn how to spam GG before playing Kumano turn 1.

I just played 3 games to get the sparky challenge done for the stained glass sleeve and it was fine all 3 games, she played pacify on her own creature which was funny lol
That Black/White Phyrexian deck is pretty decent for a prebuild

That happens to me too if you are talking about the colour challange for new players. I'm stuck at the red challenge where your first match up is against blue. the blue deck bot just randomly stops playing (doesn't matter if it's his or my turn).

That's a lil frustrating to be honest. I just want to finish the tutorial. At least I can do the starter deck challange until the bug is fixed.

Update 16.09.2023:
A game update fixed the bot and I could finish the colour challange.

You can skip all that via: Esc for Options->Account->Unlock Play Modes

Same, happens quite often. The AI could use a bit of improvement as well, tends to just take damage instead of blocking.

Thank you very much for this tip! The bot was fixed in the meantime, so I could just finish it the normal way.
Sparky is clearly insane, to the point where she used 3 black kill spells on a single creature of mine. She's a psychopath.

Think my best is she put a pacify on her own creature
