Servos causing extreme lag

starfall

Trying to play with Tezzeret 2 is a nightmare. His second ability is great, but the more Servos appear on the board, the more the game lags.

Somehow this doesn't seem to be a natural outcome of having more game elements in play, since the same level of lag does not happen with large numbers of treasures or activated gems.

I'm playing on a Samsung Galaxy A5 2017

Same for my saheeli legacy - hok deck. Ultimating takes a while, and then finishing the turn even more

This happened a lot during the Kaladesh Block.  Having a lot of servos and/or energy really stresses the game out.

Its one of those bugs that were fixed ages ago but periodically comes back.  Just be very careful running those kinds of decks

Be careful... how?

Well for starters just don't run that kind of deck lol.

But if you are going to lag your game out, take some precautions.
Fully closing the app and restarting it between matches usually helps (clearing the cache too doesn't hurt)
Don't cast any cards that cause lag (like Chord of Calling or something) if you know the game is already going to be laggy
Don't cast any big-effect spells that could freeze a laggy app (something like Shatterstorm with so many targets, or Rebuke with a full enemy board)
Do not pause the game ever no matter what
Don't rapid-tap through animations

Stuff like that.  But yeah, maybe avoid decks like that in matches you care about.

Pardon me for saying so, but this is the bug fixing forum, and I feel like bugs reported in it should not be dismissed by other players.

Wow, ok.

I wasn't dismissing the bug report initially, just providing some historical clarification for it (I do that a lot with repeating bugs here, if you haven't noticed).

When you asked a question about my response, I answered it.  I guess technically it should have been in a new General thread, but I didn't feel like doing that just to clarify an offhand comment I made.

Sorry if I caused any offense with my posting.
