Oath of Druid

[demeitri1]

is there a specefic reason this card wasnt coded into anyones wad?

It's probable that no one got around to it. There are more than 10,000 cards and I don't think anyone has the time to code and test them all.

I posted some code in the Formal Request Thread, for the sake of keeping all DotP2014 requests together as much as possible. By the way, the errata changed the card a bit: according to the text here, the only requisite for the target is to be an opponent, but now with the errata, the condition for controlling more creatures than the choosing player is a requisite for the target as well (this is much better in DotP because you won't be asked to choose if no opponent controls more creatures than you).

Also you can try code it yourself
Here's something to start with
Name:Oath of Druids
ManaCost:1 G
Types:Enchantment
T:Mode$ Phase | Phase$ Upkeep | Execute$ TrigOathofDruids | TriggerZones$ Battlefield | TriggerDescription$ At the beginning of each player's upkeep, that player chooses target player who controls more creatures than he or she does and is his or her opponent. The first player may reveal cards from the top of his or her library until he or she reveals a creature card. If he or she does, that player puts that card onto the battlefield and all other cards revealed this way into his or her graveyard.

Which engine is that for?

Which engine is that for?

It's for Forge. Sure it looks simple... but it doesn't help a bit in writing code for DotP.

[Morden]

oh yeah, everyone loves this card
I made a deck with it, I'll test when I have time

mhmhmh, I think there's something strange....
if the opponent has fewer creatures than me, it's MY choice to activate or not the oath's ability, FOR HIM.

You're right, the <MAY /> doesn't work with SetTargetAnswerer. I fixed the code, always here.

Now the card works but there's still an issue. In deed, if you don't have any creature in your library, it's the first permanent of your library who is put on the battefield instead of don't put any permanent on the battlefield (and put all cards of the library in your graveyard).

If you have almost one creature in your library, there is no problem.
