Also having this happen on Android mobile. Kind of kills the battle when you cant cast a troop and have to take a gem match instead. ---

Here is evidence of the bug on switch. ![1000002799](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/gemsofwar/original/3X/e/4/e4846385682f130c09559427cae6498248b32963.gif) Not being able to cast anything during my turn is super annoying. ---

It’s annoying that this bug exists – and sometimes swings battles in the enemies favor, if you end up having to make a poor 3-match to un-stick the game rather than make the cast that is ready that this bug is blocking. It’s also annoying that mana potion gems _keep on_ getting voted up into the PvP weekly restrictions even though they’re bugged: that just means we bump up against this bug more often. Could mana potion gems be excluded from the restrictions voting until this bug is fixed? ---

When did it begin happening?** Almost every match whete mana potions are active. **Steps to make it happen again** Just play any PvP area with mana potions active and you’ll run into it. ---

How kind of the rigged game) and it does not create a match it gets stuck and you cant cast until you use a turn Devs: how about you nix this horrible immortals update nobody wants and fix the game. And players: heres an easy fix. STOP VOTING FOR POTIONS!!! Even not bugged it makes battles longer and helps the ai as much as you. Especially on blood frenzys where they get takshakas ---
