Thanks for all the hard work Marek. I'll take a look at the 7 and see what I could do.

It wasn't THAT hard

As soon as scans are released, I'll refer to this post and upload pic archive.

Any chance the cards that are done will be committed for a nightly build in the next day or two? Playing a few rounds of forge helps get familiar before the prerelease...

Looks like the snapshot just got uploaded, though the draft rankings aren't yet in.

Alright, the release notes are out:

And here's the note for Tragic Arroagance, since there was some discussion about it earlier:

If a permanent has more than one of the affected types, it can count for any of them. For example, you could choose an artifact creature as the artifact you're sparing, another creature as the creature, and an enchantment creature as the enchantment. Similarly, you could choose an enchantment creature as both the creature and the enchantment that you're sparing, even if the player controls another creature and/or another enchantment.

Good to know

I just uploaded an early set of the rankings form bestiare.

I've added all the cards by Marek14. I hope i haven't forgotten anything.

As I've been monitoring the Upcoming page, only 5 cards should be missing now: Talent of the Telepath, Demonic Pact, Touch of Moonglove, The Great Aurora and Pyromancer's Goggles.

i noticed that the older cards need to be updated to get Menace as Keywords too because they get erratad.
like Atarka Pummeler

(that does need to be updated on this page too)

for the code i think:

Code: Select all

AddHiddenKeyword$ CantBeBlockedByAmount LT2
AddKeyword$ CantBeBlockedByAmount LT2


just need to be changed to:

Code: Select all

AddKeyword$ Menace

hm i am just a bit sad that "by more than one creature." ala "CantBeBlockedByAmount GT1" doesnt get Keyworded too ...

[friarsol]

Ok, looks like I found some cards that slipped through the cracks. I'll take care of adding them this morning:

ORI Cards | Open

Alhammarret's Archive
Citadel Castellan
Exquisite Firecraft
Infernal Scarring
Topan Freeblade
Unholy Hunger
Valeron Wardens
Veteran's Sidearm
Woodland Bellower

Give Wizards time. There are lots of abilities that have been Keyworded over the years. There's plenty of time for them to have "Duelist"

I planned to mention this once the rules update is up, which should be next week. That always highlights any changes.

Here's a potential script for Demonic Pact:

ManaCost:2 B B
Types:Enchantment
T:Mode$ Phase | Phase$ Upkeep | ValidPlayer$ You | Execute$ TrigCharm | TriggerZones$ Battlefield | TriggerDescription$ At the beginning of your upkeep, choose one that hasn't been chosen - Demonic Pact deals 4 damage to target creature or player and you gain 4 life; Target opponent discards two cards; Draw two cards; or You lose the game.

Oracle:At the beginning of your upkeep, choose one that hasn't been chosen -\n• Demonic Pact deals 4 damage to target creature or player and you gain 4 life.\n• Target opponent discards two cards.\n• Draw two cards.\n• You lose the game.

Things that still need to be done. When a Charm SA is added to the stack, record the choice (if the SA cares about being recorded). When a Charm SA is determining choices, filter out choices that have already been recorded if there is a choice restriction.
