The site has always been wonky on mobile, but as of yesterday it seems a few changes have made the site genuinely unusable.
Firstly: using Android, Chrome. Browser is current version. Haven't done any recent updates as far as I'm aware, so the issue seems to stem from the site side of things?
Listed as follows:
1) on the mobile "homepage" the search and menu buttons (in top bar) now sit directly on top of each other and the menu can't be pressed. This means no access to the different parts of the site such as the forums, except for whatever is directly linked on the homepage (currently just the four most recent forum posts). Very awkward.
2) when in the forums themselves, looking at the text navigation links at the top (which show which sub-forum you are in, like a directory list) are now obscured by the edges of a box, so the only part visible and clickable is "Forums" which takes you back to the root directory. Not good for navigating the forums at all.
3) the "New Thread" button is also obscured by the edges of a box, so you can't make new threads.
4) thread titles are obscured behind a box, when you've navigated to the thread page itself.
5) there's no way when navigating forum threads to jump to the most recent post made in a thread. There's a button which should do this, but it just throws you to page 1 and you have to manually navigate to the final page and scroll down for the post. This uses up mobile data & takes time when added up over a long period.
Image showing the issues described.
Note the menu & search buttons top left corner.
It's got to the point now where I can't use the site on my mobile unless I roll with the full desktop version and quite a lot of the time that's not feasible. problem 4 & 5 is persistent, but points 1-3 are as of yesterday. PLEASE fix this
Several of these issues have now been fixed.
Looking into the rest.
Apologies, our last software update override some of our previous changes.
I can see some of the issues have been fixed. Notably the search and menu button, which was the most compromising in terms of navigation, so thanks! Much appreciated for the speedy look at these issues, although points 2-5 are still there. I can actually use the site now at least.

I'm running into issues with the notification bell not clearing the little red number properly in chrome, both on desktop and mobile. Also, the search icon is overlapping the mtg salvation title on the mobile chrome browser in Android, among other positioning issues.

1. (Ravnica Allegiance): You can't keep a good esper control deck down... Or Wilderness Reclamation... or Gates...
2. (War of the Spark): Guys, I know what we need! We need a cycle of really idiotic flavor text victory cards! Jace's Triumph...
3. (War of the Spark): Lets make the format with control have even more control!
and if so, what device/os/browser versions are you using?
Currently I'm still seeing issues 2-5 presenting themselves with titles etc. Obscured behind boxes. The new thread button can be pressed, despite being partially obscured. The site is usable at the moment although as mentioned, these issues make navigation a bit awkward.
I'm running Android 6.0.1
Chrome version 60.0.3112.116
Thanks!
