Notable Bug Fixes

Corrected bug showing the end date of ECL Mastery Pass beyond the TMT release. The correct end date to earn orbs is 3/03.

Powered Cube players start the game with one additional timeout. Hopefully, this gives you the extra time you need for that combo without causing people to drag out games.
Autotap will now favor sacrificing two treasures before tapping Manavault or Grim Monolith. It will tap those before sacrificing three treasures, though.
On mobile, an updated slider has been introduced to improve the player experience of scrolling through large hands.

Improved sizing and location of text on the Account Creation screen for mobile.
The Timeless Format is now translated appropriately within the format selector of the Challenge Lobby.
Fixed an issue where the Offline tooltip wasn’t appearing on mobile.

Your opponent’s face down cards exiled with Foretold now have a hanger explaining the mechanic. Just missed the comet, I guess.
