Shadows over Innistrad spoiler season

New card:

Declaration in Stone
{W}
Sorcery
Exile target creature and all other creatures its controller controls with the same name as that creature. That player investigates for each nontoken creature exiled this way.

I'm not implementing it for now because I'm not quite sure how this multiple investigate works -- do the tokens enter the battlefield all at once or one at a time? I suspect that it's one at a time. Plus, for Commander, the code should make sure the card is actually exiled -- if a commander is sent to command zone, it's not "nontoken creature exiled this way", and so it shouldn't let the player investigate.

[Marek14]

Seems the rules for Madness have changed a bit.

From Tabak's Tumbler:

Q: So are the rules for Madness actually changing or does it just have better reminder text now?
magicjudge

A: Both! The reminder text better reflects the fact that a triggered ability is involved. The only functional change is that discarding it into exile is no longer a choice. This probably doesn’t matter, but it could w/r/t Processors or Jace, Vryn’s Prodigy if you have four cards in your graveyard.

[Hanmac]

mechanics and rule changes from:
http://magic.wizards.com/en/articles/ar ... -mechanics

specially that DFC now has converted mana cost is very important.

[Marek14]

As for the unimplemented cards:

Delirium - a proper condition needs to be implemented, either something to count number of card types among a set of cards, or specific Delirium condition. Needed for Hound of the Farbogs, Invasive Surgery, Mindwrack Demon, Pick the Brain, Reaper of Flight Moonsilver, Soul Swallower, Tooth Collector, and Topplegeist.

Skulk - ability needs to be implemented. Needed for Farbog Revenant and Furtive Homunculus.

Declaration in Stone - multiple investigate would probably need to be implemented as a loop (you repeat the action "put a Clue token onto the battlefield" multiple times, you don't put them all at once). Also needs to check that the cards were, in fact, exiled, to remove a Commander loophole.

Relentless Dead - X selection and targeting problems, I already mentioned those.

Ember-Eye Wolf - the spoiled card is incomplete, missing mana cost, so it's put aside until that's known.

Watcher in the Web - with the way extra blocks are implemented, it will need a specific ability.

There is a error with the angel,
but I also had it first. It does trigger on damage to permanent not only planeswalker. (Which does make him even more funky)

Declaration in Stone can use the same Count that Frankenstein's Monster does. Also, I'd like to see the FAQ before saying that Declaration in Stone needs to happen in a loop, but if it does we have support for that. (Similar to Helm of Obedience)

Relentless Dead I'd say just do like Gorilla Shaman, we can look into the issue with Redirection of Target Defined X at some point.

[Marek14]

As for Declaration in Stone, it says that you investigate multiple times, and investigate is defined as creating one token.

[Hanmac]

for Delirium can't we use "Count$CardTypes.Graveyard" like from Tarmogoyf ?
