Killing the opponent is for noobs, pros kill the server!

Servers just living there best lives, happily vibing along and then Chris enters the Arena. Dark Lord, the bane of servers.

[@jamesdrummond7684]

There must be a way to complain about the servers/submit error reports: this is happening through the normal play of cards. It should be fixed.

[@robwagner7545]

The current state of affairs at WotC. Doing away with playtest teams was a brilliant move for the health of the game...

[@NoPodcastsHere]

Lol is that a joke? Arena is intentionally designed to cripple if you try any sort of significant combo, they do it to prevent combo decks which they dont want people to play. Attempting to play any number of commonplace combos will lock the game out. Tbh im impressed the tapper let Chris tap a nyxbloom land for 2k mana, generally if I would get over 3~4 nyxbloom on the field the game would just crash from being unable to calculate mana costs.

[@derekharrington8787]

Anytime it crashes while I'm playing I just chalk it up to Chris finding a good combo lol

[@natelagrassa9337]

Another reason I quit playing arena… the fact you can only have 250 permanents on the field, rigged hands, rigged deck matching, rigged shuffling, can’t play combos, or 1000 year storm effects… the servers were trash a year ago and clearly they are worst now.

How can they not deliberately set up shit like this though? Probably is just hasbro not wanting to spend money on the processing power needed

[@oreszteszmurgacs7689]

@@nickna7387 I don't know about it being easy and not wanting to do it. Magic is an incredibly complex game, where each piece of the game changes the game. I make mistakes with only 2-3 cards on the battlefield, and the client has to keep otrack of not only all the effects and interactions on the board, but also all the potential possible interactions (able to cast, target, activate, modify etc.) all at the same time. I'm glad it's working pretty reliably enough that I get to enjoy the game. I would love to see "repeat action" or "record sequence" into "repeat sequence x times" and "auto target" or "always target" options for combo to be more viable.

[@jk6971]

​​​@@nickna7387having 50 ancients so you can tap a single island for 2000 mana is such an edge case though. 95 percent of players will never crash the servers, at most they might play a scuteswarm deck that slows it down for 15 or so seconds. That's what their servers should be able to handle and what they should work to optimise, not exponential, exponential, exponential effects!

I'm in tears: never seen the Dark Lord asking.. no, wait, _pleading_ the server to not crash! Hahahahaha Hilarious!!

[@Tharkon]

Interesting showcase of how the Arena timer works, it continues counting down and whenever you cast something it adds time. And then breaking the servers so hard it doesn't even force a draw, it just doesn't give an end screen at all.

[@HungrImp]

I was reminded of a time when I had 2k scute swarm triggers on the stack. The game took 10 minutes to start resolving the triggers

[@lucagiovanninieddu2603]

GreError, the punishment for jank kings 😜

[@xchronox0]

15:00 the stop when you tried to cast Villainous Wealth was because it was trying to autotap black mana for the 1 black mana you need to cast it 😂

[@ZeroInfiniti2]

Arena devs "oh shit, mono black is on, we need more power!"

[@brianarsuaga5008]

Mana multipliers like nyxbloom and mirari's wake combined with color fixers like leyline or chromatic lamp totally hose the servers. It's been a known issue for YEARS. It's something to do with the autotapper running through an exponential number of combinations to figure out what's activatable and what's not, I'm pretty sure, because it lags horribly any time you get priority, rather than with anything actually on the stack.

[@brianarsuaga5008]

Take out the leyline and use flexible lands and it'll work MUCH better on arena

[@enmanuelrondon9700]

Does this mean disabling autotapper would kill the lag?

[@brianarsuaga5008]

@@enmanuelrondon9700 no I don't think so because I think it still makes the calculation to figure out if priority should auto pass

[@RadCommieGamer]

Great video, Chris. I had several much needed hearty laughs of it. As for crashing the game, it's so sad that companies rely on Unity from the beginning, not realizing that their project would some time in the future just outgrow the capabilities of the engine it was build upon and it will in turn limit their games in what it can do. Same is for MTG: Arena and with Escape From Tarkov, sadly. Anyways, thank you very, very much and have a great one. Love you and what you do.

Lol the unintended result of forced draw could actually be the secret goal, and the best way to get the draw is playing super jank big mana decks. 😂 I've done this so much as a fellow enthusiast lol

[@samdillard1824]

i really wish you would use the artifact that you pay between 2-4 mana to copy target spell you cast (depending on what type it is) as a means to double your spells. When you're paying X+Y where X=X and Y= colored mana pips. As long as you are paying more than 5 for X you're profiting from having it doubled. On top of that you can do your huge X=18 and copy it to prevent it from being countered.

[@Lightmane]

If I were still playing on Arena, I would ALWAYS stay in when playing against you, just so I could see all this naughty nonsense that you are currently engaging in.

[@GustavGans80]

How is this overwhelming the servers? I mean is it really that much to process? Isnt there much more to process on battle royale servers and such?

[@GustavGans80]

What I mean is, could this just be a form of "balancing" or nerfing decks like this?

[@Nostale97]

I think the problem is copying the Nyxbloom, since the game can't handle tripling the mana that a land gives so many times. I remember that copying The World Tree also lags the game due to the auto-tapper. Maybe the game can handle casting dopplegang for x=10+ but not copying the Nyxbloom?

[@GrayP25]

I think it's the multiple instances of allowing a land to tap for mana of any color by having so many Leylines of the Guildpact. I haven't played it in a while but I believe we experience some slight lag if we have 2 permanents that allow lands to tap for any color, like a World Tree and a Chromatic Lantern. Now imagine with 8 Leylines.

The code for tokens seems to be broken these days. I’ve had multiple games where it just wouldn’t create any more tokens for me. I’d attack in with rabble rousing or use the horn of Gondor tapped with Ojer on the field and the game wouldn’t create any more tokens

[@xn85d2]

There's a 255 token limit so you may have been hitting that.

[@alicetheaxolotl]

There's a limit to tokens on Arena because Scute Swarm broke the servers.

[@petersteiman2443]

Does Chris just edit out the games he plays against actual Timeless decks? I’ve said this before and I’ll probably say it again, it would be nice to see his crazy janky stuff happen against an opponent actually playing a real deck. I know he has, because I have seen videos where he is playing at mythic ranking, but I can’t recall a historic or timeless video recently where he plays a single game against someone who is playing a deck that’s part of the meta game that seemingly everyone else plays in.
