Collectible Card Game Headquarters

r8413. Computer cast Disenchant on a Mageta's Boon attached to my Covert Operative. The Boon's bonus is still being applied.

Edit: Instant ueot buffs are also remaining on creatures after their effect should have ended. Example: I cast a Riding The Dilu Horse on a Kresh, the Bloodbraided. The effect is still there the next turn.

Riding the Dilu Horse is a permanent effect

Oops.

r8413... I got an uncommon - Confiscate - as my random rare after winning a match against King Arthur.

This is precisely the case.
Based on this discussion, I think we should just disable the import command in the quest deck editor and add an option at the start of the quest to import a deck (replacing the random initial card pool). This would mean that people would have to start a new quest to test a new deck though.

Sounds fair enough to me.

Another question Fnoed:
Does the new metadata in deck files allow to add quest decks without an entry in the QuestBattle class?

Yeah, there has been several discussions over the last couple of years in reference to importing decks into quest mode.

Some people are looking for a gauntlet type mode where they can play a pre-con deck against high quality AI decks. In this case wining cards, buying and selling cards and developing a deck over time might not be their primary goal.

Other people might not have the time or the interest in re-rolling their starting quest pool while they look for an interesting pool of cards to start with. These people might have an interest in improving their deck as they progress through their quest. They might just want a starter deck to help them save some initial start up time.

I agree with this. I enjoy winning new cards, trying to improve and build alternate decks as I quest. I am not an expert player and for me there is a lot of frustration trying to get started, with a random set of cards from our ever-expanding pool. Playing against early opponents sometimes I can tell by about the third or fourth turn that I have no chance whatsoever of winning the game.

Yep, this would be me, at least until Shandalar is integrated. Though admittedly, I'm not playing much at all currently. I just track the change log, and every once in awhile a new card or other change inspires me to design a new deck to play around with for a bit.

I'm not exactly sure why some people want to make it difficult to import decks into quest mode anyway. I personally played over 1,000 games in quest mode before I got tired of playing hundreds of games to build one deck. Now I just want to be able to tinker with new decks and test them against the creations of others. Why do some people not want me to be able to do this?

Got the following as I was casting Carnifex Demon against quest Darrin Stevens easy. Checking the AI hand afterwards showed one Assert Authority, but I don't know if this actually caused the problem.

Sometimes I really enjoy re-rolling the starting pool of cards and other times I just do not want to be bothered.

Fnoed and Sol came up with an idea in another topic about giving us the ability to import a deck rather than using a random set of cards at the beginning of a quest.

We would not be able to import other cards and decks at a later stage in the quest but this might encourage a few people to create some starter decks that people could consider before starting their quest.

It might be fun to use your quest to improve that starter Goblin/Elf/Counter/Discard type deck.

Yes, this is the plan. There will be some additional lines that will indicate the difficulty of the deck, the description and the opponent image name. We should even be able to define quests' various parameters like initial board setup and reward data in there.
