Maybe the UI isn't great in an absolute sense (that situation would be really tedious to play), but I don't see how it could be made substantially better. It wouldn't be better if that situation arose in a physical Magic game either... the problem there is the game state, not the UI.
- Benjamin_Dobell 7y agoMy point was that for people that have never seen MtG Arena before, it's non-obvious that there's more going on off-screen. A more intuitive UI would make that situation more explicit and not require explanation. As you've rightly pointed out, a better UI isn't going to solve the UX issue of ridiculous game state; but it could better depict the state itself.
