Known Bugs

Date Run App Version Node Fixed Bug Description
2018-07-19 3.6 1.2 Spark Reaper's "Ravnica at War" ability only destroys the player's creatures, description says "Destroy all nontoken creatures and supports."
2019-07-19 3.6 2.3 Creatures with Partner do not count towards the Partnership achievement, but spells do.
2019-07-19 3.6 3.2 Proliferate objective is haphazard. Speculation is that it may effectively be "Cast 4 cards with Proliferate in one turn". 2019-07-19 3.6 4.3 Nicol Bolas, Dragon-God's "Spark Gatherer" ability as listed in game appears to be incorrect. Instead of drawing a card, the ability appears to function as though the text were "Your opponent exiles the last card in their hand. Create (or reinforce if applicable) a blue, black, and red Gathering Sparks support Token  with 3 shields and 'Whenever your opponent activates a Loyalty ability or a Vanguard  ability, gain 2 Loyalty.'"
