Collectible Card Game Headquarters

I used Heat Shimmer to copy my Marsh Flitter. The copy didn't get exiled at end of turn (if it makes a difference, during the turn I sacrificed a goblin to make the copy 3/3).

1. I've read FFAQ, and used search feature, but I didn't find the answer, nor a better topic. If it exist, please point to it\move my post.
2. Thank you for keeping Forge "alive".
3. Is there a way to search for lands that produce specific mana ? Typing "u" or "w" doesn't really work with lands.

I attack with Tromokratis and the AI blocks it with only two of its six creatures.
One of the others is tapped so it should no be abled to block at all.

This is a good spot to ask questions like that, since it's a) relevant for this release and b) a place that is commonly checked by mostly everyone.

Did you try {u} or {w}? I believe that's the trick when looking for mana symbols. Similarly you can do things like {2/g} or {s}

There is something not quite right when an opponent has something that increases mana costs e.g. Sphere of Resistance.
Sometimes and its hard to pin down exactly when you can tap a mana and it simply vanishes it does not go into casting the spell or the mana pool and it requires a second mana which works normally. Sorry to be so vague I'll repost if I find a more specific time when it happens. Originally I thought it was when pressing auto rather than taping the land but I have disproved that.

I did now. Thank you, thankyouthankyou ! You saved me from browsing through 2000+ lands.

Is there a list of other "commands"\syntax somewhere ? Because my attempts to find untap "symbol" ({un}, {ut}, {!u}, etc.) didn't work.

Untap symbol should be {Q}.

I really appreciate the work you folks are doing with this!

I'm running the snapshot build posted here: forge-gui-desktop-1.5.24-20140804.163151-1.tar.bz2 and have noticed that the AI does not activate the +1 for planeswalkers Vraska the Unseen and Elspeth, Sun's Champion. No reason not to -- It was using it in build 1.5.22, but not in this build. On the other hand, it did use the +1 for Jace, Architect of Thought and for Xenagos, the Reveler.

I attached screenshot of AI casting but not activating Vraska.

If you play with mana burn activated, every time you destroy a land (or another mana-producing card), the AI taps it and gets mana burn damage. (Seen with 1.5.22 and 1.5.23)

It is. Thank you.

AI used Grisly Spectacle on a creature I stole from AI. AI milled cards, but I should have.

In Quest Mode, when I sell all extras, all of my Shadowborn Apostle are sold except for 4. Instead, this should work similar to Relentless Rats, which are presumably never sold automatically.

Thanks guys for the hard work, keep it up!
