The most spectacular crash I have ever seen.

I was never able to reproduce this, but it was caused by something very mundane. I believe I cast Cryptic Command on a Wild Nacatl and drew a card? Either way the result was amazing.

-The board was cleared of permanants
-The Ai put >56 tapped Air Elementals into play (with untap icons)
-Each Air Elemental had an uncountable number of counters on it
-Each had 87 points of damage inflicted
-None had any power or toughness
-All had several landwalking abilities and protection from black
-The AI's hand was emptied.
-My hand was filled with 50 swamps.

I believe the game locked up at the next phase. Feel free to try to reproduce. Save game is attached, but I never made a bug report because I could not isolate it. Pretty spectacular though :D

EDIT: My deck was a Battle of Wits deck, hence the large library - that's normal.

Nice one, though so far the only bug I found in your savegame as of minipatch 5 was Jace legacy effect that stay put until eog.

I see also this is a gauntlet savegame, did you previously face some Karn decks by chance? Seems to be a Karn Liberated ultimate with wrong card id...

Ooh! Yes I have recently been using the Karn Ultimate more and/or have seen the AI use it at least once. It is a distinct possibility that it happened earlier in the gauntlet.

Wow!!!

That had to hurt ;)

Not a crash but I experienced something terrifying in a game of SPAT I set up. In the SPAT deck I included a Skeletal Vampire. In the first game a drew it and used it sparingly and wore the AI down and won. Next game, the AI drew it and proceeded to proliferate almost as many bats as you had Air Elementals. Needless to say I removed the Skeletal Vampire. It was either that or festoon my home with 300 crucifixes.
