Notable Bug Fixes

- The white background when attempting to purchasing the Set Mastery on some mobile clients is no longer present.
Additional Bug Fixes
General
- Fixed an issue in Bo3 with Companions that would occur if you added a card from your sideboard that would no longer make your Companion legal to use.
- Fixed an issue in the Credits where the “Universes Beyond Partners” button wasn’t skipping to the desired location.
Gameplay
- Token Vehicles with no mana cost weren’t displaying summoning sickness, now they look good and sick.
- Desertion was getting you extra creatures if there were somehow extra creatures on the stack. Now it’s just really mean instead of super mean.
- We had the wrong translation for Fuse (it was fuse like on a bomb, not fuse as in combine) and now we don’t.
- Starfield of Nyx doesn’t animate itself anymore.
- Fabled Hero wasn’t getting the counter, and now it is.
- There’s a new smart stop at the beginning of your end step when you get new cards in your hand because Necropotence or whatever.
- Timing out while collecting evidence was making the autoresponder choke. The autoresponder now gives up and fails (because the killer has escaped or something I guess).
- Some “Chosen By” hangers were hanging out longer than needed, and now they go away.
- Mistway Spy had the wrong duration.
- Martial Glory has been given custom prompts to read a little more clearly.
- Someone told me that they revealed Ulalek, Fused Atrocity off of Omnath, Locus of All and didn’t get mana, and they should have because mana symbols had colors, and to them I say “no, read how Devoid works again.”
- Static abilities that skip your draw step were still active while face down. This is no longer the case.
- The autotap on Awaken is better.
- P.S. I’m sorry about how the autotap on Awaken was.
- Viewing sideboards during the second match should not display the original sideboard anymore.
- Zilortha and creatures with 0 Power were doing wonky stuff with auto assigning damage. You still need to assign damage! It’s weird!
- Fixed a typo on the Islandwalk hanger (“a island” instead of “an island”). Amusingly to me, the bug referred to it as “Islandwalker” throughout, which is a more significant typo.
- Haha, we have fun.
- Cards with protection from everything abilities had an extra hanger. Now they have a (subjectively) reasonable number of hangers.
- Sacrifice VFX were not sized correctly for Battles.
- Planeswalker VO should not overlap as often (like if you -2 a Planeswalker with 2 loyalty and it dies and does a thing at the same time).
