I’ll give it 10 stars
☝️
Even though I uninstalled it and reinstalled it multiple times, it still said I had an invalid account. But that very account has been used for virtually everything else. I love the game magic and hate to give it this review but it seems to not work for me. I wish anyone seeing this has better luck than me.

Served need to be fixed or make more it should not take 5mins after I bat someone
Glitches so frequently that it makes the game unplayable.
Everything is so ridiculously expensive what's the point of doing this I can just go buy 1 million more cars and waste my money like I have over the last 30 years of my life but no they need more and more and more we're not talking like five bucks 10 bucks everything on there that's worth a damn is 20 to 50 and up, for a freaking game on a cell phone. And the uneven matching for even playing games is absolutely the dumbest thing I've ever seen it's like putting somebody in there when you're new with this with a seasoned bed and all you do but they want you to pay you $50-$100 so you can keep dying or get better if you don't pay it but yeah it's it's just so frustrating I don't even I can't even type right now you should be ashamed yourselves for literally charging as much as you are on stuff like this man don't you have enough money

By far the most toxic and grimy way to interface with magic, everyone is a fat sweaty nerd desperately scouring for the most over performing cards. If you’re ready to see the same tired handful of cards out of millions of options then this is the app for you. You’ll find the worst of humanity here and by that I mean the handful of degenerates mixed in between the copious amounts of bots. My time has been wasted and years have been added to my life.

Look how they massacred my boy. Went from planes to IP. Mtg shouldn’t be set in NYC
I like magic
I love this game it’s really fun but I feel like i don’t get as many gold wildcards as there are gold cards can you please fix this? Otherwise I would give at 5 star review
Terrible experience. Literally the first game it froze and nothing happened. Why would anyone play something that is such trash?
Poorly designed version of magic unless your spending a bunch of money on digital cards it’s not worth it. P2W players can create elite decks and you can’t even get a turn in. Don’t waste your time. Another cash grab from a BS company
This game is amazing and fun, but a lot of reviewers say that the devs are lazy even though the devs are probably just busy porting in sets. If you think it is bad then you try reprograming a game at the same time as adding hundreds of new cards.
Terrible. Was hoping to enjoy this game and learn. Less than 5 minutes into the game I am stuck since the instructions on blocking attack don’t work.
The deck building iud is not the greatest for tablets or phones. Deck building would benefit from a way to favorite cards, respond easier to viewing details on cards without having to add to deck and a more straightforward approach to adding and removing cards as the app touch responses are not always ideal.

This app sucks. Terrible optimization and UI. Trying to do anything with your account is like pulling your own teeth. Hire some people who actually have experience programming an app. How does a multi billion dollar company fail to make an app?
First off, let me say I have been playing Magic for 30 years and I really like it. However…this game is a train wreck and trying to find a match where your opponent doesn’t quit is very challenging. I am very grateful that this game doesn’t allow chat and it’s probably the only thing WOTC has done right. The player base is so entitled and toxic that most opponents quit the second you do anything that creates any sort of resistance to them at all; when they can’t win, they simply quit and this can make some quests take hours to complete. The shuffling algorithm is terrible,the matchmaking is worse (it’s supposed to be ‘random’ but it has a pattern of matching each deck to its opposite polarity) but…here’s the problem: if you want to play digital MTG there is NO other choice (except maybe spelltable). Love the paper game…this is only a shadow of the real game and it’s developed for the company NOT the players.

Great game. Brawl is great but they need to add normal commander with 40 life points. At least add it to custom matches. I understand not online, but when i play with friends we want time to build our board. That is hard to do with only 25 life.
Just a great game
Worst card game I’ve ever played you spent money to play draft or play sealed you think you’re doing a great job until they don’t give you any cards and you Mulligan into nothing again you try to switch to standard you have three cards that have four each in the deck and you don’t even draw a single one and you’re opening hand absolute garbage game don’t spend any money because they’re just stealing it from you.
