It is great most of the timeWhen the game is functioning properly it is a great
Game and a lot of fun. However it crashes a lot and sometimes just doesn’t feel like working.
Fun Game but crashes constantlyPlaying on iOS, was about to win in standard ranked, crashed 3 times in a row and then I tried to get back in and was booted from
the game. Not sure why but this game crashes constantly.
Pretty GoodGood game but if I were the developers I would lighten up a little on the difficulty of the final tutorial match. I’m sure
you’re losing some possible players because of this.
GreatAwesome way to learn magic before committing to the physical game. Even better way to get a full experience with out having to
spend any real money to get great cards
Goood gameIt’s a pretty dang good game so far from what I’ve seen hopefully easy to get cards
2 stars at best.Only rated it 5 so you could see it; this app is extremely and obviously rigged. The deck shuffler gives you only lands one game,
only creatures the next, and it goes on repeat with maybe 30% of the time it being evenly and honestly shuffled. Great game, trash
app.
MagicLike most other games that get popular they start to change for everything 🤷🏾♂️
An Incredible Magic Experience with a Responsive DCongratulations to the whole team who make MTGA a reality. It’s a phenomenal experience of Magic for new players and old ones
like me. It allows us to play more with a wide variety of experiences. The new features and overall upgrades and stability have
been incredible.
ForeverAsk Facebook, once I leave it’s forever.
They worked on it…The issue I was having has been improved.
It’s good but…The indie development company has done a great job for the most part. Their RNG needs work, and they need to talk to the poker god
and tell him to visit less often. Also make stuff cheaper…
Great, but could be Top Deckedthey could have a card scanner yso you could bring your real world cards along with you. when is this goong the one to rule them
all
Finally able to learnI always wanted to learn how to play magic since I was I to Yu-Go-Oh and all that. And since I got this app gotta admit loved it.
And still do to this day so thanks for finally letting me play and against people too! 🥹
Please add a way to trade cards for wild cardsI want to trade my commons for common wildcards
Never stop thisI love tht im able to play woth my cards any time and not have to go all out and buy them everytime truly an awesome gathering for
sure
1Это лучшая коллекционер карточная игра а мире надеюсь скоро выйдет и
на андроиды
Good for Nothing to DoGood game. It’s good for passing the time as well.
Great gameLove playing and developing my skill. Its not entirely pay to win either. I play the ranked historic and do well without having
put any money into it. Only 4 star because the game does freeze but its usually easy to catch. Just need to close out and restart.
Lemon is sun jetsThe first time you have a chance at the top is the second one you get a free pass and you can go on your way back and then go to
your car to pick it out of there so I don’t have any money for that and I can get it back and you could get tyytyt
Great way to play mtgLove the ease of playing mtg anywhere, anytime… only bad thing is if you need to change your email for any reason…
Wonderful gameI have been a long time mtg player very much enjoy being able to play on the go
FunGreat strategy game with lots of options
MTGits magic the gathering nuff said
TitleGreat way to experience and learn the game. In-game economy can be a pain and dailies can be more of a chore at times, though
Great GameThis is the best way to play Magic without physical cards. The only bad thing is they do not keep on top of making sure the
software works properly. For example, for years playing Arena on a M1 Mac is cuts off 1/3 of the graphics. There is no way to
solve
This issue.
Fixed the music problemGreat fun and now I can listen to my background music as I play again.
in game addingi love the game, but can we add people we play while in game?
Last 2 setsBeen playing magic since it all started unfortunately the last 2 sets I personally feel have ruined the game. Although I will
still play it just won’t be as often at all.
Games fun but!Needs a larger battle mode so we can 3v3 or even 2v2
Fun to play and experimentOne of my few daily play games, spent little to no cash on this game.
Great but updatesIt seems like there are huge updates like every 2-3 weeks. Otherwise great adaptation to a mobile game
No real cards no problemWhen I got into magic I didn’t even have cards or a gameStore near me, the closest one was an hour and thirty minutes away, but
now I can play magic on my phone and I love it.
I am in a gay marriage with this gameI have been playing magic for twenty years and this app has allowed me to relive my childhood.
Love it but needs one thingGive me commander! You do that and this would be a slam dunk
???How to I go from winning 3 in a row to losing the next 7. Terrible matchplay… somehow I still comeback to play.
Riiigggddddddddd. Pathetic. Horsepoo. My god….THE SHUFFLER!!! Wow the shuffler!!!
Magic through the decadesI’ve been playing since around revised. This game is amazing, and I love that I can play it anywhere and share with my children.
Love this gameThis is so much fun i love this game
More gameplayThis is definitely the best magic game made yet. I love all the aspects of the game. My only request is to add in more game modes,
like 2 headed giant or even a 4 player free for all. Just a thought, keep up the great work! 👍
Love it! And I’m a real personI absolutely love the traditional card game and this is an amazing way to play on the go without needing your laptop!!
Love the card game and the online versionIt’s a free way to tinker with your decks before investing a boatload of cash. The gameplay is flashy. I dig it
FuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuukThis game is so fun i am a wizard god
Mtg OGBeen in it since 2000, five kids later I don’t have time to go to tourneys anymore.. this was an instant fix and OMG I am
grateful..
Love itHonestly, most of the games glitches have been fixed. The only problem with the game is that it’s hard to do things without
paying money. It’s a good way to play magic.
Me man like gameMe man really enjoy game, oh my orc bois are so muuch funz. When weez killz little human haha
HILove the game sonio is the best.
Magic wowI’ve played magic for only six months and wow! I love everything about it (except the Fortnite crossover) I learned how to play
at scout camp and arena is the perfect outlet to play when other people won’t, thank you WOTC!!!!!!
Somebody…Try and stop meh in 2023, I’m just getting warmed up, again again.
I love mtgThis game is great wish they had the ability to let us play actual commander
Love this game butGreat game just can’t figure how how to tap on the actual opponent when the card says to do so to tap all their creatures. If I
tap on the character picture, just shows mute or unmute. Not sure
Magic The Gathering Best Online Card GameI really love what they have done with this game. I play on iPad and PC and really enjoy it. I’ve never really been able to play
in table matches for lack of locations. This is a great way to play with standard rules and online only changes and patches.

Sad performanceThe app is great but crashes, bugs, burnt a friends computer!! and fryed my macs battery. Why a card game performance is worse
than a 99 people battle royale game??
Just to pass timeGood for passing idle time, but events and drafts are a waste, save your money.
Fix App Connection IssuesPlease…fix the mobile app connection issues. 70% of the times I attempt to open the app, it tells me it couldn’t secure a
connection. It is not a problem with my wifi. Please for the love of god. Why would I spend money on an app that I get open
Needs some work…Used this app to get into MTG. Doesn’t explain things in enough detail to fully learn the finer mechanics of the game to
optimize decision making. AND NEEDS TO ADD A DISMANTLING OPTION FOR CARDS YOU DON’T USE!
Game is funOpponents are horrible losers. Like to waste your time because they can’t win
Look how they massacred my boyMagic meets hearthstone. Nearly as expensive as playing in paper. No agency over collection or way to extract your investment. F2P
takes daily login to obtain maximum F2P rewards. F2P weekly rewards max out fast. Alchemy is a mistake.
Clunky sign upI haven’t used the app yet, the account creation in the app is clunky and I didn’t feel like completing it. No apple sign in,
password and email auto fill don’t work. Maybe I’ll try again at some point on my laptop. I don’t feel like running around
copying and pasting atm.
Audio not working on MobileOne of the main reasons why the game becomes enjoyable and very immersive. Please fix soon!!
MehI love magic. But god theres a whole lot of bugs. The time it takes to time out the opponent is absolutely absurd as well they
could cut it in half and it would be better.
Please fix playing with friendsThe game is very fun and provides the opportunity for new and old MTG players to have fun. However, trying to play with friends is
very buggy as it never works. You get the request and you can select your deck but that’s as far as it goes. Please fix this!
Great but could be betterThe only thing i have to say is why isn't there a 2V2 or a 1V4 u know how fun that would be also i wish there was a way to test
commander decks like if the bot had a commander deck to fight u with
Best of one is not magic.Arena is nice to get some games in if that’s all you’re trying to do but if you’re looking to play competitively, “best of
one” is a joke and has nothing to do with actual magic play
Shorten player turnsSome players take way to long ever single phase every turn. Please shorten the time players have to make moves.
Great game, but app builds are inconsistentEvery other update seems to mess with the app. If your not playing on Wi-Fi there is no reason to even attempt ranked. Even
worse if you switch off of Wi-Fi mid match you need to hard restart to reconnect. I write this review now as I was DCd and am
unable to relog.
Random draw?The game is fine but I feel like the randomizer for card draw is sacked. My opponent has exactly what they need but I get mana
blocked or choked
Game is greatGame is great app is no good. Please let me play music in background again while I’m playing on phone.
Fun game with clunky interfaceBeen playing MTG for years on computer and it should be easier on an iPad, but it isn’t. Not sure why other CTG games are able
to get the interface right, while MTG continues to struggle.
Soooo closePlaying this on mobile is a like a dream come true, until you hit all the bugs. The UI was clearly not optimized for touchscreen.
It’s passable at the best of times, and near unplayable at its worst.
Balance Is NeededBlack is too strong early game. Too much Rakdos
Keep banning any popular card that people like toThis is a fun game but y’all ban cards almost every month and makes us have to rebuild an entirely new deck. Even the starter
decks they give you to learn the game in bot matches have been banned. This is ridiculous, you don’t have to ban every card
that’s popular or good to use.
Fun. It still a cash grabI’m enjoying myself, even without spending a dime it’s pretty good early on. A lot events are locked by gems. And to really
succeed you need certain cards which in all reality will cost money unless you’re really lucky.
Love Magic but this app keeps getting worse and woI’m on a brand new iPad and this game is constantly freezing and crashing now. It’s just gotten more and more unstable. It
now crashes at Lisa’s t once during a play session. Fix this.
Pay to win.Yeah you can earn some cards but it takes forever. If you want to compete without dumping money into it you will need the patience
of a Saint. If you remember Magic Duels you’ll understand why i will NEVER spend money on this game.
Start up issuesI have to reinstall everytime I want to pLay.
Good game but limited in varietyThe game is fun but no matter how many different game modes there are that dont allow u to use certain cards it gets dull. I wish
they had a 2v2 game mode or something that mixed up the game play more.
Don’t like the fact that you can’t just use the caI love the concept of this game.
But I hate that you have to 1: unlock a card ( totally reasonable.)
2: but then you have to have another card to use it.
Absolutely annoying
Pay to winThe game is fun, but if you don’t pay money to buy packs then you’ll lose more often than win.
