Spiritomb freezing the game

Options

I've been in 4 games where the game freezes when spiritomb attacks. All they do is get spiritomb out, get something on the bench and attack. After that it's an auto game loss. I'm playing on mobile if that makes a difference.

    I've seen those players that just have decks of 4 spiritombs. I played against a lost/Tina deck that used a spiritomb at the end so it doesn't seem to matter what is on the bench, and the glitch worked against a ting-lu deck so it doesnt seem to matter whether spiritomb is actually shutting off abilities or not.

    I've been in 4 games too.

    @Mod_Champion Please ban Spiritomb( 089/193 ) until the bug is fixed!

    Just tried it and can confirm that it's an auto-win.

    Opponent freeze and then is kicked due to inactivity.

    Yay another autowin bug.

    Is anyone surprised at this point? I know I'm not. I have been on the client for 14 months and it just keep getting progressively more bug-ridden and unplayable. I'm not holding out much hope of this getting fixed nay time soon. I predict Spiritomb will be banned for a few months while we get another 50 cosmetic changes no one asked for.

    I've encountered four of these as well and two in a row just now. The ladder will be full of these losers exploiting and ruining the game

    Surely the least amount of QA you would expect is to play test each new card. You'd understand if it was some strange interaction but this is just an attack....
