Wild Slash, the last card, has been completed as best as I can. It will not work in all situations because there are multiple bugs with the PreventAll() function for damage the severely limit what we can do about redirecting/replacing damage. It will not work with characterisitc damage prevention such as on Fog Bank and Dawn Elemental. Zamboo deserves credit for much of this card as the damage prevention... uh prevention... code was done by him.

DUAL LANDS







With the imminent release of Fate Reforged guaranteed for March 24th I have a question about dual lands that's not really overly important but I would like to gather some opinions. As the screenshots above show, badges are used to indicate which color of mana a land is currently producing and I think that's enough. But Kieran went through and put the 'This land is currently producing [current color] text' in the ones he tested and I thought it was interesting. So my question is: Which method should be included in the official release? Just the badges or badges with reminder text?

Personally, I like the reminder text, but if it's included, then I feel it should definitely be the actual mana ability which is shown. By that, I mean it should be "{T}: Add B to your mana pool." I know it already has the ability, but it'll fit better with all other cards with mana abilities. This way, it looks like the basic lands and any other basic mana ability.

I think I didn't convey my question correctly. The cards will retain their real world appearances. I was wondering if I should remove the 'blue' text at the bottom of the cards and just use the badges to indicate which color of mana is currently being produced. They'll definitely keep the {T}: Add {R} or {U}to your mana pool parts.

Nope, you conveyed yours fine. I didn't convey mine well enough. I meant that if they have the blue text, then I personally feel the blue text should be "{T}: Add {B} to your mana pool" or "{T}: Add {U} to your mana pool" depending on the current setting. Just a preference. It seems like having both the ability with both symbols and the ability with only one might be confusing, but since it'll be blue, I don't think it would.

Indeed. We can include an optional .WAD download similar to how you created the Manual Mana variations of the lands. That way, it's according to preference.

Depends on the time zone you are in, so for Tejahn it may still be the 24th. Then again it could be there was a snag that requires a bit more time. Either way, cut him some slack.
