Utilty Idea - Magic 2014 Random Deck Generator
Posted: 19 Aug 2015, 00:42
I'm thinking of a program that builds a random, but sort of structured archetype deck (like life gain, creature control, etc.) using the cards you have in your current card pool. I envision that the program would look for cards of a certain color with certain code tags and/or text of a card, like for a creature control deck it would build either a black, red, or black & red combo deck full of big creatures and lots of "destroy target creature", "deal X damage to target creature" type cards, auto assign land, use generic Vs. screen pictures , and save to a deck ID that isn't currently in use by you. This is just an idea that I had that came to me while I was playing Origins, it builds random decks on the fly (or so I think anyway) and you can compete against a deck you're not familiar with, which is pretty fun and challenging. I've been playing against virtually the same opponents since I started playing Magic 2014 and I'm pretty sure I know every deck I have now like the back of my hand, anyway, it's always nice to have a variety of opponents to play against. If people here thinks this is a good idea and would use it, I may look into trying to make it, no promises though.
Another random thought, is it possible to make decks not visible, and not able to be picked by the player, but still able to be selected by the "random opponent" function? This way if this tool is made, you'll have a variety of AI only decks that won't flood the deck selection screen.
