New quest decks

[Agetian]

If anyone is interested, here's my update pack for the icons - I actually made a point in the past of looking for a good enough picture for an icon and putting it in my Forge cache whenever a new quest deck came out, so this pack should cover at least most of the new decks that became a part of Forge since last summer. Feel free to use as well as to upload any of them to the server if you find missing ones and are in need of a picture.

Dang, your pics are really good. Then again, you had prepared for this while I spent a late night hustling some quick images. I tried looking for official art and such.

Thanks! Glad you like them!
Let me know if you're missing any others, I have a full set so I can upload more of them. Actually, I can also upload my entire quest icon cache, but I think that it's quite messy because it also includes a lot of pics for various quest worlds and such, including some "unofficial" quest worlds. Would anyone be interested in getting a snapshot of that? (despite the messiness).

Well, do you have an icon for the Imperial Guard? That's one opponent you missed in your uploaded pack. (And I think my picks aren't good enough) Most likely you also have one for the other quest decks we haven't covered yet as well as one for the mirrodin opponents. I don't even know half the non-MtG characters referenced. (e.g. Which Maria?)


At least my Dracula icon's stylin'. "What is a man!?" and all that.

[Agetian]

Yep, I added Imperial Guard to the pack above. Here: viewtopic.php?f=48&t=4458&p=179809#p179809
And haha I have no idea who Maria is too...

I got bored, I hope no one minds me flooding the thread with more half-baked deck ideas. Suggestions are welcome.

Does the AI know not to sacrifice to its own suspended Curse of the Cabal yet?

Is this only for the main world or do you want the package to also include the oppenents icons from the other quest worlds?
Anything needed for that? (in my case ravnica & mirrodin).

I've just commited a fix for this.

Sweet! Thanks to that...

Flandre Scarlet 3 | Open

Main:

4 Marsh Flats

3 Swamp

1 Mox Pearl
1 Mox Ruby

2 Dead Drop
4 Imperial Edict
2 Night's Whisper
4 Sinkhole
4 Vindicate


As long as something hits the opponent's graveyard, Nihilith will arrive faster, which serves as the secondary win condition along with the Gravelord token. Primary win condition is cast enough spells and kill enough creatures to win via attrition. I'm pondering on whether or not to add Exquisite Blood somewhere.

4 Tundra
4 Veil of Birds

Needs more Aven Brigadier, Kangee, Aerie Keeper and maybe Cloudreach Cavalry, Soraya the Falconer.

Judge's Familiar, Gustcloak Skirmisher, Dovescape, Azorius Charm could/should have some AI problems.

Unnamed 2-3 | Open

Main:
1 Arid Mesa

Could be harder

We sorely need a deck with Parallel Lives (it isn't used yet), but is there any reason all the token generators are death triggers? I don't see any cards that have synergy with it (normal token makers would fit just as well).

On it.

I thought it was cool at the time. Plus, the death triggers give a second chance from board wipes and the like. I'll revise it.

EDIT: Do Parallel Lives work with spells? (e.g. Raise the Alarm) Nevermind, I figured it out.

Thanks for answering though.
