[fixed/clos]Power Sink doesn't empty pool nor taps all lands

by **Nexhro** » 18 Sep 2014, 01:29

Describe the Bug:
~~Power Sink doesn't counter the spell it targets when when that spell's controller doesn't pay .~~ In this case, it also only taps X lands that player controls or just deducts X mana from that player's mana pool instead of tapping all lands that player controls and emptying that player's mana pool.

I'm assuming the X tapped lands / mana from pool are simply used to pay for {X}

.

Which card did behave improperly ?
Power Sink

Which update are you using?(date,name)Which type(Duel,Gauntlet,Sealed Deck)
CoRM15 mini, duel

What exactly should be the correct behavior/interaction ?
Power Sink counters the targetted spell, taps all lands that spell's controller controls and empties that player's mana pool unless that player pays {X}

.

Are any other cards possibly affected by this bug ?

I confirm this partly as the spell is not countered and the lands not tapped if when you are asked for x if you afford,have the mana to pay x but you don't.If you can't pay x as x is too much for your mana then the spell is countered and all lands get tapped.

Well, this one was still in part hardcoded.
I made a new code in 139e991 and tested a bit and it counters the spell, so consider this fixed.

Counters the spell, but doesn't force lands to be tapped. Ex. AI cast a spell with cc 2 leaving 1 untapped land. I cast Power Sink with x=2 and spell was countered but land remained untapped.

Doesn't empty mana pool either.

This was my fault; counterspell_resolve_unless_pay_x() was misdocumented, so this was tapping lands and emptying mana only if {X}

was paid. The difference didn't matter for any other card. Fixed it to work according to its documentation (and made Power Sink empty artifact-only-colorless-mana from Mishra's Workshop, too) in 88bb38f.
