Spectator freezing the game?

[Ket]

Had a spectator join a 2 player commander match, between me and a friend. Actually had no idea spectators are allowed by default, but ended up letting spectator stay. After 20 minutes into the game, spectator disconnects and time out countdown starts. As that happens, both me and a friend end up being stuck in a declare defenders phase, unable to select any cards or progress to the next phase, button never appears. Time out runs out, but game doesn't unfreeze and neither of us are able to concede.

Is that something that just can happen?

This is a common desync error in multiplayer mode: the game does not resync the state after the spectator disconnects, causing you to be stuck at the declare defenders step, unable to click Next, unable to act or exit the match. There is currently no solution in the match, you can only exit the game.
