Im a huge fan of extort.... IRL, I somehow manage to gain all the heat from my opponents but yet come out trumps...


Has anyone managed to fix/create the coding for extort or even to go as far to say create a deck with them.

I don't think I'll make an Extort deck really soon, but I had a nice idea about it so I'll share it:
Code: Select all
  <TRIGGERED_ABILITY dangerous="1">
    <LOCALISED_TEXT LanguageCode="en-US"><![CDATA[Extort]]></LOCALISED_TEXT>
    <LOCALISED_TEXT LanguageCode="fr-FR"><![CDATA[Extorsion]]></LOCALISED_TEXT>

    <LOCALISED_TEXT LanguageCode="ru-RU"><![CDATA[Вымогательство]]></LOCALISED_TEXT>
    <LOCALISED_TEXT LanguageCode="pt-BR"><![CDATA[Extorquir]]></LOCALISED_TEXT>
    <TRIGGER value="SPELL_PLAYED" simple_qualifier="objectyoucontrol" />
    <RESOLUTION_TIME_ACTION>
    local player = EffectController()
    if player:CanAfford("{W/B}") == 1 then
       player:BeginNewMultipleChoice()
       if player:CanAfford("{W}") == 1 then
          player:AddMultipleChoiceAnswer( "CARD_QUERY_OPTION_PAY_W" )
       else
          player:AddMultipleChoiceAnswer( "CARD_QUERY_OPTION_PAY_W", false )
       end
       if player:CanAfford("{B}") == 1 then
          player:AddMultipleChoiceAnswer( "CARD_QUERY_OPTION_PAY_B" )
       else
          player:AddMultipleChoiceAnswer( "CARD_QUERY_OPTION_PAY_B", false )
       end
       player:AddMultipleChoiceAnswer( "CARD_QUERY_DO_NOTHING" )
       player:AskMultipleChoiceQuestion( "CARD_QUERY_MC_EXTORT" )
    end
    </RESOLUTION_TIME_ACTION>
    <RESOLUTION_TIME_ACTION>
    local player = EffectController()
    if player:CanAfford("{W/B}") == 1 then
       local decision = Object():GetMultipleChoiceResult()
       if decision ~= 2 then
          if decision == 0 and player:CanAfford("{W}") == 1 then
             player:TapLand("{W}")
          elseif decision == 1 and player:CanAfford("{B}") == 1 then
             player:TapLand("{B}")
          end
          local lifeloss = 0
          for i=0,MTG():GetNumberOfPlayers()-1 do
             local currentPlayer = MTG():GetNthPlayer(i)
             if currentPlayer ~= nil and currentPlayer:GetTeam() ~= player:GetTeam() then
                currentPlayer:LoseLife(1)
                lifeloss = lifeloss + 1
             end
          end
          player:GainLife(lifeloss)
       end
    end
    </RESOLUTION_TIME_ACTION>
  </TRIGGERED_ABILITY>
This version of extort lets you choose if you want to pay with white or black mana. I'm not sure if conditional costs let you use CTRL (I have never tried :lol:), but if they don't, this would allow more control over the available mana.

just checked the deck out... does it limit the amount of extort?? there is only one or two extort cards..

I was thinking about more of low casting extort... how would i implement that code to select mana?
