My first deck composition
by NeoAnderson » 11 Sep 2013, 13:55
Updated with link and pictures.
This is my first deck composition, I would share it with you and please let me know what you think about it.
It is not a simple deck because there are many way to win, it not quick but it give many opportunities to gain time, sometimes it can kill the opponent quickly, and it also have deathly combinations.
DECK NAME : BLUE ANGELS POWER
COLORS : BLUE AND WHITE
TOTAL CARDS : 70
A suggested combination is :
A. Play Omniscience (a way to cast without pay is to use : Dream Halls or Show and Tell )
B. Play Enter the Infinite
C. Cast Any Creatures and Artifact, Enchantments you like and when you are satisfied end the phase casting Time Reversal
With this combination you are able to cast all your deck during one Phase, I think it will be enough to win.
To download the wad : http://www36.zippyshare.com/v/40849279/file.html
Please find below the deck informations :
In game deck selection

In game deck editor

In game action more than 770 points of damage and more than 926 point of life gained in a single shot!
The screen is not right because the opponent died so the game doesn't calculate after fight effects, in that case the point of life should be doubled (around 2000 point of life.)

I had no problems posting external links to my wad and I am a new user. I used google docs for my wads, if that helps.

I am testing the deck and it is strong, but i found some bugs on the follow cards :
Reflecting Pool (RSN_REFLECTING_POOL_152158) = It doesn't recognize special land so if you have tundra on battlefield it won't give mana.
Emrakul, the Aeons Torn (EMRAKUL_THE_AEONS_TORN_627002) = Sometimes the special abilities are not recognized as like annihilator or extra turn.
It That Betrays (IT_THAT_BETRAYS_338017) = Sometimes the special abilities are not recognized as like annihilator or take control of sacrified permanent.
Artisan of Kozilek (ARTISAN_OF_KOZILEK_357892) Same as before not always it recognizes the special abilities.
When you play one of the mentioned cards, if it works it will works for all the match, otherwise it will not work for all the match.
Would be appreciated if someone could check if he founds the same issues.

For this card I can tell you that for Reflecting Pool to recognize anything the lands have to have been made to work with my Manual Mana functions, if the land does not "advertise" what mana it can produce then there is no way for Reflecting Pool to "read" what can be produced by that card. So if Tundra was made to not use my mana functions (at least to advertise what it can produce, regardless of whether it is auto-tap or manual-tap) then Reflecting Pool won't be able to recognize it.NeoAnderson wrote:Reflecting Pool (RSN_REFLECTING_POOL_152158) = It doesn't recognize special land so if you have tundra on battlefield it won't give mana.
So in this case it is either a mistake in how Tundra was written or it is a mistake on the part of the person building the deck for not checking to make sure that they chose a proper version of Tundra to work with Reflecting Pool. My guess is that Tundra is an auto-tap version which was not made to work with manual mana.
As for these, if you are playing online then this is a known problem with the network code for DotP and has nothing to do with the way the cards are written (a problem no modder can fix).NeoAnderson wrote:Emrakul, the Aeons Torn (EMRAKUL_THE_AEONS_TORN_627002) = Sometimes the special abilities are not recognized as like annihilator or extra turn.

Thanks for you detailed explanation about these kind of issues :
About Tundra as you said it doesn't work with auto-tap you have to manual tap and specify which kind of mana you need. So it is logical that Reflecting Pool can't recognize it. Probably you're right is a problem about the code programming of Tundra.
About the other cards
Emrakul, the Aeons Torn (EMRAKUL_THE_AEONS_TORN_627002)
It That Betrays (IT_THAT_BETRAYS_338017)
Artisan of Kozilek (ARTISAN_OF_KOZILEK_357892)
I am not playing online, but i suppose i have undestand where is the problem, if you don't cast one of these creatures, but you just put on battelfield with other cards abilities as like Quicksilver Amulet , these cards doesn't work fine. ( i am not 100% sure right now but i will make some test and i will let you know).

Thanks for you reply Mc Brodie, i have already installed, Riiak's Mana functions and object, as he told was a problem with the version of Tundra i have added to the deck, now with Tundra (MM_TUNDRA_628980) it is working. I know about the complications to use dual lands, but is also obvious isn't so easy to make an automated AI to autotap it. I mean you can also program it for autotap for the current summoning but the AI cannot preview which kind of action you want to do later (except when there are few moves).
About Emrakul, the Aeons Torn (EMRAKUL_THE_AEONS_TORN_627002) i have seen, if you cast it directly it works, if you cast it with Omniscience it works, if you cast it with Quicksilver Amulet it doesn't give extra turn.
Emrakul, the Aeons Torn cast with Quicksilver Amulet

When there are too much cards on the battlefield, the game view isn't nice, many cards are moved out of the screen border, is it connected with the resolution settings? Anyone encountered this issue?
TOP VIEW (the player's one is worst)

That's absolutely normal: Quicksilver Amulet doesn't make you cast the creature, it just puts the creature onto the battlefield.NeoAnderson wrote:About Emrakul, the Aeons Torn (EMRAKUL_THE_AEONS_TORN_627002) i have seen, if you cast it directly it works, if you cast it with Omniscience it works, if you cast it with Quicksilver Amulet it doesn't give extra turn.

I also have this issue and I believe it is related to how WotC and Stainless set up the battlefield layout. The fact that non-basic lands do not stack on the battlefield only makes the problem worse.NeoAnderson wrote:When there are too much cards on the battlefield, the game view isn't nice, many cards are moved out of the screen border, is it connected with the resolution settings?
