Primal Clay turns into a swamp before its etb-replacement effect (fix completed in vcs)

 

When casting Primal Clay that card disappears!

Reason: component Duel Engine->Individual Card; Retitle from "Primal clay not working"; autocard

confirmed, it is also removed from the game if cast from hand, and if debug cast a swamp is put on the bf instead.

[GG] FIX #1295: Primal Clay, Primal Plasma: don't change before selection

Which would (usually) cause them to change into a Swamp, and (always) cause
them never to run their enter-the-battlefield-replacement effect.

Incidental: make their use of info_slot a little more robust to interference
from other cards' functions if they get changed into other cards, or other cards
that also use info_slot get changed into them. (Like other such cards, that'll
cause them to "forget" that a choice was made, rather than getting what looks
like completely random answers as happens in Manalink.) Though that should
currently only be possible with Vesuvan Doppelganger, which has a whole host of
other, much more severe, problems.

Works fine in Hall of the Sultan and earlier series, btw. (Except that the third choice of Primal Clay doesn't add subtype Wall, which wasn't possible until GG - even in the original MicroProse implementation, it only sort of worked because Wall and Defender were conflated.)
