No way, sumo codes just like me

[thefiremind]

I know, I just want to know what a special condition that will cause this bug, if there's only one Master Biomancer on the battlefield, then Clone enter the battlefield and copy it, Clone will has two counters, not four, that looks all right. I am using the following code.

  <TRIGGERED_ABILITY replacement_effect="1">
    <LOCALISED_TEXT LanguageCode="en-US"><![CDATA[Each other creature you control enters the battlefield with a number of additional +1/+1 counters on it equal to Master Biomancer’s power and as a Mutant in addition to its other types.]]></LOCALISED_TEXT>

    </TRIGGER>
    <RESOLUTION_TIME_ACTION>
    if TriggerObject() ~= nil then
      local number = EffectSourceLKI():GetCurrentCharacteristics():Power_Get()
       TriggerObject():AddCounters( MTG():PlusOnePlusOneCounters(), number )
       EffectDC():Protect_CardPtr( COMPARTMENT_ID_PARAM_TRIGGER_OBJECT )
    end
    </RESOLUTION_TIME_ACTION>
    <CONTINUOUS_ACTION layer="4">
    if TriggerObject() ~= nil then
       local characteristics = TriggerObject():GetCurrentCharacteristics()
       local subtype = characteristics:SubType_GetWritable()
       subtype:Add( CREATURE_TYPE_MUTANT)
    end
    </CONTINUOUS_ACTION>
    <DURATION>
    return (TriggerObject() == nil)
    </DURATION>
  </TRIGGERED_ABILITY>

In my tests I was copying some other creature (not Master Biomancer) with Clone, and 1 Master Biomancer was giving 4 counters. I don't know, maybe the last update changed something about this...

No way, sumo codes just like me

And me. There's no reason to reinvent existing working code: copy-paste is still the best option for everyone.

[drleg3nd]

thx sumo,when ya put it like that I guess I could've done this myself lol

[OkuuReiuji]

Hello guys.
I've started to code Clear the Land for my Maze's End Deck, and Honden of Night's Reach, but I've got problems with "All players" part for the 1st card, and the discard number for the 2nd...

Can anyone help or will make the cards?

Thanks in advance

[MC Brodie]

Below is what I came up with for the Clear the Land. It reveals all of the cards at the same time (i.e., in a 4 player game it will reveal 20 cards during the reveal step). I don't know how to get to only reveal one player at a time. Maybe multiple resolution time actions? That was the first time I tried a repeating resolution time action. I think that's the right way to do it since they should be put onto the battlefield at the same time.

hey guys, I have no idea how to code cards. i'd really appreciate it if someone could help make these following cards!

Candelabra of Tawnos
Capsize
Meditate
Mind Over Matter
Time Spiral

thanks in advance!

[OkuuReiuji]

Many thanks for your help, that work nicely, now my Maze's End deck is done. =D

[loookaz]

hi guys, is it possible to make Aven Mindcensor? or do the game limitations prevent that?
and if it's possible i would like to request Wirewood Symbiote and Heritage Druid.
it's high time to make some kickass Elves deck:)

[thefiremind]

hi guys, is it possible to make Aven Mindcensor? or do the game limitations prevent that?

I don't think it's possible. I don't even know if the "search library" trigger can be successfully overridden, but even if it is, each card would need a different replacement because searching the top cards for a land is different from searching the top cards for a creature, or an artifact, etc.

[loookaz]

that's a shame. hopefully someone can help me with the elves cards:)

[Kieran]

These are the cards I need to complete a requested tribal Gorgon deck. Thanks in advance!

Curse of Oblivion
Dread Slaver
Gaze of the Gorgon
Gorgon Flail (Never mind, I went ahead and completed it)
Infernal Medusa
Sisters of Stone Death

I've changed activation cost from to for testing purposes. delayDC won't trigger with ABILITY_RESOLVED or anything else, I have no idea how the "end this effect" would work using UTILITY_ABILITY, this not easy transforming a creature into aura, when I use PutOntoBattlefieldAttachedTo it erases the enchantment type. attach_definition only works in SPELL_ABILITY and I have no idea how to fire a SPELL_ABILITY when card is not in hand.

oh well, this one is for the masters !

EDIT:if by any chance, someone's up for another challenge, I request Bruna, Light of Alabaster. not sure if I will manage this one myself.

Here are the elves. Heritage Druid requires Riiak's manual mana functions. I've been playing a legacy elves deck lately. It's been a lot of fun. It's insane how much you can combo with them with limited mana.

[thefiremind]

attach_definition only works in SPELL_ABILITY and I have no idea how to fire a SPELL_ABILITY when card is not in hand.

I'm pretty sure that you don't need to fire the SPELL_ABILITY, just grant the SPELL_ABILITY when the Licid is an Aura, so that it has an attachment definition to use.
About how to end the effect, keep the Licid transformed into an Aura at all times, but only if your LinkedDC flag is set to 1. This way you'll be able to switch the transformation on and off with the 2 activated abilities by just changing the flag.
(Actually, the "effect ending" isn't worded as an activated ability, but I'm aware that there's no other way to code it.)

Talking about cards that aren't always Auras, did someone think about an idea for the new bestow mechanic? The main problem is that targets must be chosen before paying costs, so you can't choose a target for the Aura after deciding to pay the bestow cost. I had an idea, but I haven't tested it yet: make the bestow cards always ask for a target, but with up_to="1" so that it isn't mandatory. If no target is chosen, the card will be cast as it is. If a target is chosen, the mana cost of the card will be increased up to the bestow cost (I don't know if this can be done on time!) and the card will become an Aura. The possibility to choose a target should be shut down if the player can't afford the bestow cost.
I know it sounds good, but it's just an idea that might prove itself totally unfeasible.
