Wall of Tears is not sending the blocked attacker back to AI's hand.

Can you be more specific? This is working for me in current SVN. I don't think anything around this has changed since the 12/22 beta.

Not sure how much more specific I can be... I use Wall of Tears as early defense in a Psychatog deck. I was blocking elves, but they were never bounced back to the AI's hand after combat as expected. Just a wall with no abilities. I'm using r4609, I believe. Plain Windows 7 machine with updated Java.
If it works for you, then don't worry about it.
Thanks for checking!

Many of the cards with static pumping like this were fixed for the last beta. Omnath, Locus of Mana was not one of them however. It's on the list. I just need to add counting of mana in the mana pool to the standard code.

Omnath, Locus of Mana now uses the standard code for self pumping. Just checked this into SVN. Please report any new problems.

Hi, the last ability of Nissa Revane (Search your library for any number of Elf creature cards and put them onto the battlefield. Then shuffle your library.) is not working

12/22 beta: Enlightened Tudor does not place the card I selected on top of my deck.

[Zirbert]

I had two face-down copies of Akroma, Angel of Fury on the table. When I paid the morph cost to flip one of them, they both immediately went to the graveyard. Looks like the Legend rule killed them, but it shouldn't have, since the face-down copy was still nameless.

EDIT - I can confirm that this bug still exists in the 12-22 beta (which I just installed).

The AI will repeatedly play Man-o'-War when there are no other creatures on either side of the table, forcing it to bounce itself. It'll do this over and over until it runs out of mana. Granted, there could sometimes be a reason to do this (building up Storm count, triggering a comes-into-play ability on an enchantment, etc.), but that isn't the case here.

More an AI issue than a bug, but I figured it might be worth bringing up.

I can confirm that Wall of Tears and AEther Membrane still don't work for me either (12-22 beta, running in Ubuntu Studio). I block with them, the attacking creatures deal their damage to the walls, and then nothing else happens. Neither one is causing the blocked creatures to get bounced at the end of combat.

Oh, that explains what happened with the AI the other day. AI was playing an Elvish Piper deck and I was getting pwned by an Akroma. The turn he was about to deal lethal damage, his Akroma suddenly disappeared. I checked, and he had 2 Akromas in the yard. Apparently he decided he needed a second one to kill me with. Victory snatched from the jaws of defeat!

Yeah, the AI tends to play second copies of legends, especially lands (Tolarian Academy, Gaea's Cradle). This goes in the same category as the Man-o'-War issue I mentioned a couple of posts back - more an AI matter than an actual bug. The rules are working as they should, but the AI plays suboptimally.

On another note, I've tested it, and the problem of not being able to play Counterspell and variants (my favourite is Mana Drain) off an Isochron Scepter has been fixed in the 12-22 version.

12/22 beta: Enlightened Tudor does not place the card I selected on top of my deck.

`
Hmm. I wonder if the code may be shuffling the Library before or after it places the fetched artifact or enchantment card on top of the library.

Compy played Spreading Seas on my Island of Wak-Wak. My Island of Wak-Wak became a regular Island, but Spreading Seas gained IoWW's ability!

Nice one!

`
I looked at the code for Spreading Seas a few moths ago when someone else mentioned this situation. I remember that the code moved the abilities from the target land and these abilities get moved back if Spreading Seas leaves the battlefield.

I remember trying a test deck and the new abilities listed on Spreading Seas would not activate, no free lunch. It is mainly a cosmetic issue. One of the devs may change the code at some point but this may be viewed as low priority.

It shuffles after. I posted that in the Dev Forum yesterday in the ChangeZone thread.

I don't know how to easily fix it off the top of my head. It may have to wait for whoever wrote that stuff to come back from holiday.

I thought that I had seen a reference to this situation over on the dev board.
