[fixed]Personal Incarnation can't be activated if stolen

by **Nexhro** » 18 Sep 2014, 00:11

Describe the Bug:
1) Personal Incarnation's activated ability asks for regeneration effects after every single action that takes place in the game, starting with Incarnation enteing the battlefield.

2) Activating said ability results in the game asking the player to choose a damage card. Since the game considers the ability a regeneration effect rather than a damage prevention effect, no damage card is displayed when Incarnation is dealt damage unless its controlelr has another permanent with a prevention ability on the battlefield or a spell with a prevention effect in hand.

3) In case Incarnation's controler has such an prevention ability or spell at the ready at the time Incarnation is dealt damage, damage cards are displayed, but Incarnation is not highlighted and its ability can't be activated when the game asks for damage prevention effects, effectively rendering the ability useless.

[4) Although the ability prompts constant stops for regeneration effects, it can't be activated to regenerate Incarnation when it dies.]

Which card did behave improperly ?
Personal Incarnation

Which update are you using?(date,name)Which type(Duel,Gauntlet,Sealed Deck)
CoRM15 mini, duel

What exactly should be the correct behavior/interaction ?
Personal Incarnation's activated ability prompts the game to display damage cards when Incarnation is dealt damage, and can be activated when the game asks for damage prevention effects.

Personal Incarnation doesn't bother it's controlelr with constant regeneration effects stops.

Are any other cards possibly affected by this bug ?

Also if you steal with Control Magic Personal Incarnation from it's owner and then it dies it will make owner lose half his or her life twice .

First bug fixed in a9cbd4f
Second is related to the Control Magic bug, which is already fixed.

no regeneration effect issues. No Control Magic Issues.

But no ability either (even if there is a stop at damage prevention for a Samite Healer Personal Incarnation can't be activated).

Fixed (and tested) in 45dfdc5
However, I was forced to remove the legacy and add the ability directly to Personal Incarnation. So, if the card is stolen from you, your opponent won't be able to use the ability, neither you. I really don't know how to overcome this.
