AI had a Painter's Servant and attacked with it while I had a Frogmite and n Arcbound Worker in play (if you ask me a very suboptimal move).
I choosed to block with my Frogmite and my Arcbound Worker - and he had choosen to soley damage my Frogmite, thus, I didn't even loose a creature

AI will blindly attack into Blood Reckoning, it'll easily attack with two creatures when it has only 1 life left and thus die before the attack happens.

AI has 14 life. I attack with 6/7 Bronzebeak Moa (flying from Call to Serve) and 7/7 Requiem Angel (trample and lifelink from Unflinching Courage). AI has Doran, the Siege Tower in play so my creatures are about to deal 7 damage each, and only flying creature AI has is 0/4 Angelic Wall. It blocks Requiem Angel, getting extra 3 points damage from trample and increasing my life.

AI copied a creature of mine with Phantasmal Image, I played Murder and targeted the copied creature, so it was sacrificed because of the targetting. The AI then played Mana Leak to Counter Murder even though the creature was already gone.

What are you proposing it should be doing instead? If it didn't block your Angel, it would have died, so it blocked it with the Wall.

He proposed that the AI would have blocked it's Bronzebeak Moa instead of the Angel, thus, getting 3 damage less

AI casts Riding the Dilu Horse targeting a Lone Wolf. None of my defending creatures have horsemanship. But it seems that as long as some of them have deathtouch, AI is afraid to attack with the Lone Wolf.

AI suicides into Slumbering Dragon which has 4 counters (will get a 5th immediately on attack declaration, then slumbering dragon can block and destroy ai's attacker)

I attacked with, among others, a 13/11 trample and a 12/12 plain creature. AI blocks 13/11 trampler with a 3/3. (AI was going to lose anyway)

AI attacks w/ Crookclaw Elder while I have a Vodalian Knights and an untapped island. I respond: Vodalian Knights actavated ability: pay U to give it flying. Since Vodalian Knights has first strike, it can kill Crookclaw without Crooklaw even doing any damage.

I'm attacking with a Boros Elite, Lightning Mauler and Boros Reckoner. The AI chumpblocks the Boros Reckoner with a 2/2 Experiment One. This nets me 2 bonus damage compared to chumpblocking the Boros Elite.

AI with 1 life blocked my 2/2 goblin token with a 5/6 when it had Worship on the field. My 2 Goblin Sharpshooter 's finished him off thanks to the dead goblin allowing an additional 4 damage to his creature.

Basically the AI does not understand when its being tricked into blocking something stupid, espically when it gains no clear advantage.

AI is at 6 life and has a 5/8 Sapling of Colfenor in play. I attack with Bloodbraid Elf, Putrid Leech and the Ape pet. The AI blocks the Elf, and dies as I pump the Leech.
