Collectible Card Game Headquarters

Some new cards:
Mystical Tutor
Rebuild
Spell Pierce
Stifle (seems to work correctly, can counter your own abilities if needed; didn't code Phyrexian Dreadnought, but it's a fun combo with this card 2 mana for 12/12, why not) AI most likely wont know how to use this
Wasteland and Strip Mine (no AI code for this but probably something like if have 1-2 lands in play and 1-2 in hand kill a 1 of dual)

You can apply the patch to SVN r323 (can apply via Eclipse Team>Apply Patch..).

edit: if you downloaded the v1 it contained a bug for wasteland / strip either download v2 or change filters

Code: Select all

public boolean addCard(Card c)
                 {
                  if(card.getName().equals("Wasteland"))
                    return c.getType().contains("Land") && !c.getType().contains("Basic");
                  else
                    return c.getType().contains("Land"); 
                 }

Wow, these are some very cool cards, thanks Snacko!
I could give you committer privileges to the SVN by the way, which might be easier.

Another card that would work well with Phyrexian Dreadnought would be Illusionary Mask, but the Dreadnought is kind of a pain to code.

I'm not sure how hard is it to multi target something in Forge, otherwise Phyrexian Dreadnought is pretty easy to code.

Well, technically, it doesn't target...

Why not just write the input to continue requesting creatures until the condition is satisfied?

Yeah, we're doing exactly that with cards like Cloud of Faeries, Garruk Wildspeaker and Gush / Thwart.
It's definitely doable, but it's still a bit of a pain to get the AI part right (when would it make sense for the AI to cast it?).

Cool, Mystical Tutor.

Snacko truly is the Master Programmer.

Would it work for Mossbridge Troll?

Uh... Stifle + Phyrexian Dreadnought should not work, rules wise.
At least, if I remember correctly, the sacrifice part of the dreadnought is part of its castingcost and not an activated/triggered ability. In other words, you must sacrifice creatures with total power of 12 or greater BEFORE the dreadnought enters play so there is nothing for Stifle to target.

During the second main phase, if it can be cast either:
a)With a possibility of being hit with a Stifle, Trickbind, or Voidslime immediately afterwards.
b)Sacrificing mostly creatures that will be gone at EOT(not sure how to check for this, alternatively any >2/1)
c)Leaving enough blockers to face a full human charge and still be at >4 life. Counting it as one of the blockers obviously.
d)Above check for >0 life, Human at ≤ 12 life has no flyers, playable card in hand containing "Target creature [...] gains [...] Flying". Repeat check for shadow. Tentative.

Or at least that's about what I'd do in most situations.

When ~ = triggered ability

@Marek14
Well yes it doesn't target in the MTG kind of meaning.
