I got sidetracked for the last week and a half or so.

Could you implement Yawgmoth's Will ?
It's one of the most broken and abused cards in vintage.

It's such a pain in the ass to write. At some point we'll have enough tools to be able to handle it properly, but for now things will have to wait while we build up other tools to handle it.

Maybe I just don't know how to program, but would it be possible to hack a copy which gives flashback to all the cards in your graveyard?

I'm probably not the right person to suggest that to. I think I might be the most strict of the devs when it comes to *not* hacking things together. I probably cringe everytime I see something given a "close enough" makeover. (Like Chub Toad)

I thought about the "simple" flashback or unearth hack. Sure, flashback for instants and sorceries, would work fine that way... but unearth sacs the returned creature at EOT. Then there's the trigger effect that only needs to last during that turn as well. Yeah... just too hacky to be done soon.

Wait, why is Chub Toad hacked together? Couldn't it be done pretty easily with AF + triggers? Seems like it would need two separate T:Mode$ Blocks lines, once for when it blocks and once for when it becomes blocked, both of which could lead to a single SVar:Trig line giving it the +2/+2 pump. What am I missing here?

And why do I ask that last question so often around here?

Don't answer that one. You might hurt my feelings.

Chub Toad can be done as you say, but it's currently implemented as Bushido 2. It does not have Bushido because it is not a Samurai.

You must admit, however, that a Samurai Frog would be awesome.

Any chance for Songs of the Damned ? It's the only card needed to make a Fluctuator deck fun.

Don't we already have that?

My apologies. Need to check that I have updated version before talking again.

Is Steel Hellkite doable?
