Uniformity of sacrifices, also Smokestack
by Niv-Mizzet » 03 Mar 2012, 19:27
When you sacrifice permanents I notice that some cards give you a list to choose from and some have mouse functionality. I much prefer the mouse version because it's easier to tell which card is which. (For instance if you want to sacrifice your single tapped Plains instead of an untapped one, but you don't know which ID number corresponds to which Plains.)
Is there any plan to make these various cards work the same way? I would definitely vote for the mouse version, if so.
Also you could streamline the card Smokestack by reversing the order that it offers to stack its effects. You are almost always going to want to trigger the sacrifice before you trigger the counter-adding. And in fact if you go by the Oracle text, that's the order they appear on the card anyway -- with the counter ability first so it resolves last. Right now when the effects pop up to add to the stack they're in the opposite order than you want, so you can't just hit enter like you can with, say, Hero of Bladehold that gives you the effects in the order you want.
