Fixed Miraculous Recovery, the counter should now be placed on the returned creature.

- Barishi triggers twice when he's put into a graveyard from play

At the moment the function isSpell looks like this:

Code: Select all

public boolean isSpell() {
        return (isInstant() || isSorcery());
    }


We need some better ways to decide wether a source is a spell. Any ideas?

It should be using SpellAbility.isSpell() not Card.isSpell()

Edit: Card.isSpell() is for Spell or Permanent distinctions.

- Got the following exception when AI plays Basal Sliver and afterwards tried to cast Retract:

- This bug is probably related to this bug:

- It's my first main phase, and AI controls Ertai, Wizard Adept (also works when AI has Wizard Replica). When I cast a spell (Augur of Skulls for example), even if AI has not enough mana to acivate his counter, I'm asked to select a spell, with the Augur of Skull as only possibility. When I select it, the rest of my main phase is skipped and I'm directly asked to declare attackers.

If AI controls Lifeforce and plays Smallpox and I respond with activating my Metalworker, I have to select a spell (Smallpox) but get no mana at all neither than having time to play a spell before Smallpox resolves. Is reproducible.
- When I deal 3 damage to AI with Triskelion (not one by one, but all 3 on the stack), AI gets only 1 damage but all 3 +1/+1 counters are gone.
- When I discard a card for Zombie Infestation and then cancel the ability, I don't get the discarded card back
- Psychotic Haze costs 1R
- Cavern Harpy and Stampeding Wildebeests ETB trigger can be canceled
- Silent Arbiter does not restrict the number of attacking creatures

Here's some random things I've discovered recently while questing around.

See Beyond is supposed to draw you 2 cards, then shuffle a card from your hand back into your library. Instead it puts that card on top of your library. I can say this with relative certainty since I drew that card on the following turn 3 out of 3 times I cast the spell. Either that or I'm extremely unlucky.

Triskelion has a strange bug where if you stack multiple activations on top of each other, when the later ones resolve they don't deal any damage. You have to activate once, then let it resolve, then activate again or else the counters come off and nothing happens. EDIT: Wow, I should learn to read. The guy above me just said that.

The computer cast an Animate Dead one time, and I don't know what happened, but it totally did not work. The enchantment came into play briefly, said it was attempting to bring back a creature from the graveyard, and then failed to do so. The enchantment then got put into the graveyard.

The computer doesn't get Immaculate Magistrate. Similar to a problem that I remember from a while ago with Knight of the Reliquary, the creature will just get activated at every opportunity and will never attack, even when it reaches an obscene size and can easy overpower your guys.

- If AI blocks a creature with trample with a creature with toughness higher or equal than my creature's power, I'm asked how to distribute damage which makes no sense since I have to assign all damage to the blocking creature anyway. BTW: Is this true for Deathtouch? Can a creature with Trample and Deathtouch deal a single point of damage to the blocker and the rest to the defending player?
- I blocked AI's attacking Bogardan Firefiend to death and the only remaining creature on the battlefield was AI's Mogg Raider which should have been targeted by Bogardian Firefiend 's put-into-graveyard-trigger, but didn't.
- AI didn't choose a creature type for An-Zerrin Ruins

Fixed Psychotic Haze, the damage all cost is now 2 B B.

No. For trample to work you must deal normal(i.e. equal to the toughness) lethal damage to each blocking creature, deathtouch has no say in the matter.

That's incorrect. They fixed it in M11 where "lethal damage" from deathtouch is 1 point of damage. So to the original question, a trampling deathtoucher can kill X blockers as long as it has X damage to assign.

See Beyond is already fixed in the SVN.

I hate Animate Dead.

The Triskelion problem is a known restriction and has more to do with Targeting than anything else. The target gets reset after the ability which is why this occurs. A few of the devs have tried taking a crack at resolving it with no avail. For now, you'll just have to activate the abilities one at a time until we figure out a way to get it fixed.

Thanks, good to know. Then it should be asked how to distribute the damage only for these attacking creatures who
- have power > 0 and are blocked by more than 1 creature
- have trample and are blocked by 1 creature with toughness less than their power
- have trample, deathtouch and a power > 1 and are blocked by 1 creature
Hope I'm right with this distinction?

- Deglamer seems to put the removed card on top of the library instead of shuffling it into the library
- The text of Spitting Hydra says

Spitting Hydra enters the battlefield with four +1/+1 counters.
Spitting Hydra enters the battlefield with 4 +1/+1 counters on it.
1 R, remove a +1/+1 counter from Spitting Hydra: Spitting Hydra deals 1 damage to target creature.
+1/+1 counters: 4

You mean I've been playing by M10 all this time??

...I really must get out and play paper magic more.

This is now fixed in SVN.
