OK, so I'm not taking crazy pills, this is a problem for everyone.   This should be patched immediately for 1v1 ranked.

And then you're counting on your opponent not to concede with lethal damage on the stack.

For my money, the whole unlock-cards thing should be only vs. AI.

I'm on the iPad, good to hear this bug is across platforms... so it should be a high priority fix.

On PC, there is an option to tick AI takeover. It resets itself every time you open a new lobby to default value (on), and it can be easily missed if you have an avatar with a white background (I have been there).

But I like to play it as on. You basically play the game to see combos, powerful creatures, etc. in late game and that' where it gets sweet at. Returning to a menu because I win is a lackluster for me and for a lot of people.

In RL magic, it can be useful because you do all the work instead of the computer. Imagine you put counters on creatures yourself, you painstakingly write your life on a piece of paper every time it changes and you basically tap all your lands one by one. That's when it becomes like a chess, almost a chore. So you concede and move on to other games.

Digital games dont have to be like that. Or do they?

Just posting to let Wizards/Stainless know, that I think it is stupid, that I cannot turn AI Takeover off in ranked 1 vs. 1. 

If I wanted to play against the AI, then I would play singleplayer. 

When Someone Concedes, then the other player should win. Simple as that. Please fix it in the next update.

Thanks.

An option to accept the victory in the side menu would be great.

Excuse me, but since when has chess been a chore? You move one piece a very short distance during your turn, and you compare it to what's essentially playing vs. an infect deck?
Oh, and writing a number on a piece of paper is painstaking to you? Who are you, Stephen Hawking?


Anyway, I haven't had anyone quit on me without AI takeover yet. What happens in 2013 when someone does that?

QQ all you want, it is a acceptable to play AI takeover set to off, since all you have to do is click things. And you have both options anyway, so I don't understand all the QQ'ing. You can open the lobby yourself if you are so wronged by that option.

Did I say QQ more?
