Monster Gate refuses to Special Summon a valid excavated monster

Hi, I’m playing on Mac, Reasoning gate in GOAT format and i have a bug

Bug description:
When activating Monster Gate, the excavated monster (a Normal Summonable/Settable monster) is not Special Summoned, even though I had open Monster Card Zones and confirmed the Special Summon prompt. The monster was sent to the Graveyard instead, and the effect ended without summoning anything.

Bug reproduction steps:

  1. [ex: Tribute a monster you control (e.g. a Sheep Token) to activate Monster Gate]
  2. [ex: Excavate a monster that can be Normal Summoned/Set, e.g. Jinzo]
  3. [What happened: the monster went straight to the GY instead of being Special Summoned]

Expected behavior:
The excavated monster should have been Special Summoned since it’s a valid, Normal Summonable/Settable monster and I had free Monster Zones.

As you can see in the replay, it has happened 2 times in a row. Sometimes monster gate is normal but other times it doesn’t work and it’s pretty often. This card is one the keys in this deck (monster GATE) and people can’t play this deck with this bug.

Thanks for your help :folded_hands:
