Collectible Card Game Headquarters

The Veilstone Amulet creates an effect token which does nothing.

 Disciple of Bolas ' effect uses a cards initial power disregarding buffs,
specifically I sacrificed a Quirion Druid with 3 +1/+1 counters and Rancor attached (it was pacified) so I should have gained 6 life and drawn 6 cards but instead I drew 1 and gained 1.
I'm pretty sure that's correct but if not ignore this post.

I was able to use Vile Rebirth to create a 2/2 zombie token by illegally targeting Incinerate in my opponent's graveyard.

Changing SVarCompare$ LE5 to SVarCompare$ LE4 fixes it

This has been fixed already.

Known issue I think with converted mana costs. Spells cast with a mana cost reducer in play are treated as having the converted mana cost used to cast the spell rather than the true converted mana cost. e.g. Goblin Warchief in play cast Mogg War Marshal for one red, this cannot be countered by Spell Snare which it should be.

The AI casts Renegade Troops. I cast Dissipate to counter them. The AI casts Rebuff the Wicked to counter the Dissipate, but Renegade Troops aren't a permanent when they're on the stack.

if you Snapcaster Mage and target a instant or sorcery in your graveyard, cast the spell with flashback ability and cancel while paying the costs you'll lose the spell (it goes to exile and you can't cast it anymore)

Fixed! Thanks muppet.

I can't reproduce this, so it must have been fixed with the big costChange rewrite.

The deck editor won't open! I ran Forge from a command prompt to see what is going on, and there's a stack trace:

I deleted the whole Forge directory and reextracted and it's fine.

I'm not seeing this. It might've been fixed, but what spell were you trying to flashback?

Edit: Look'it that, one thousand on the dot.

Havengul Lich doesn't let me cast creatures from my opponent's graveyard. Unless there's some way of doing it that I'm not seeing - I can target creature cards in the AI's graveyard, and they appear under the flashback icon on the AI's side, but I can't seem to actually cast them.

Have you tried clicking on your flashback icon (even though it shows 0)?

I've tried that - still nothing. The Lich gains the activated abilities of the AI's creature that I target, but I can't figure out how to actually cast it.

It gains the activated abilities? It shouldn't do that unless you actually cast the creature.. Either way, I think I've fixed it. It was *almost* doable in script only, just goes to show how powerful scripting has become

My rules is a bit rusty but I think I've got it right: You shouldn't be able to cast the creature in question outside of your main phases unless it has flash (like usual, in other words), right?

Yea it's basically the same as Yawgmoth's Will or Snapcaster Mage. The card you target allows you to cast it (ignoring normal "be in the hand" requirements) but only if you could normally cast it (timing). You aren't actually casting it as part of resolution.

I've noticed when using the combo of a Black Sun's Zenith and Blood Artist / Falkenrath Noble to board wipe, the damage done by the BA/FN only goes until the game kills the creature, instead of everything dying at the same time, therefore cutting down the damage from killing 8-9 creatures to a mere 3 instead of dealing that much and gaining that much. It saddened me since this is my favourite combo, and my real deck. lol

Quick Question. Am I right in assuming these fixes are first present in the next update, or are there mini patches somewhere?
