Challenge 3-1 ? Big dumb Object or gather no Moss?

[Ship-Su]

Ok, I'm getting a bug here or something.

One part of the help section said use only Walls (failed due to every card being illegal)

and the other said artifact only (also failed every card).

Is the challenge something other than what these two?

I'm lost

[Ship-Su]

ok, i took the challenge to be literally nothing EXCEPT artifact creatures

I no longer get illegal cards, but I just auto-lose...

Help?

You may need to restart the game, if you were playing another challenge before this one.

You need to play a deck full of walls, except for up to 4 non-wall cards.

Nope didn't work. The wall deck is 100% illegal (every card)


UPDATE: i got it to actually let me play by using my artifact CREATURE only deck.

However, the 'free sol ring' is not working. And it will not let me use even simple plains or forest cards.

Also crashes it I try and put any artifact mana producers in it

I dont think I can win with just my 4 memnites...


Anyone else have a solution to this? or is it bugged?

Using the April 2012 patch, I am able to play.

I built a deck using only non-colored artifact creatures.
Free Sol Ring works for me.
I have no problem playing mana producing artifact creatures (myr, metalworker)

FYI, beat it pretty easily with this listing:

.1210 4 Silver Myr
.11282 4 Ichorclaw Myr
.11313 4 Myr Galvanizer
.11333 4 Perilous Myr
.1213 4 Gold Myr
.1211 4 Copper Myr
.6850 4 Arcbound Ravager
.11615 4 Hovermyr
.1209 4 Leaden Myr
.11506 4 Plague Myr
.11176 4 Steel Overseer
.4159 4 Metalworker
.1624 4 Frogmite
.1212 4 Iron Myr
.10796 4 Lodestone Golem

It's not optimized, but it worked. The AI seemed to take pity on me a couple rounds b/c I wasn't playing land. Also, there's the bug w/ the AI not knowing the Ichorclaw Myr will pump when blocked. The AI also forgot to take into account potential pumps from Steel Overseer. I also ran into zero decks w/ Wrath which would completely decimate this build.

With all the 2 casting cost artifact dudes, Metalworker literally reads "T: Play your hand". Steel Overseer is ridiculous. Hovermyr was a surprising MVP; the extra 1 toughness plus evasion and vigilance was awesome. Ravager is bugged to not give full +1's, so is pretty average; combos nicely w/ Overseer and Perilous Myr, though. Myr Galvanizer just felt like it should have been more powerful than it was. Lodestone Golem was solid.

I think it needs 4 less mana Myr. There's also gotta be some card draw in there somewhere, but if it's available, I can't find it in the Gatherer.

I did not attempt to use colored artifacts (Etherium Sculptor, Master of Etherium) because I figured they would break the rules. Either would be fantastic if you could get the blue mana.

Big Dumb Object is very easy to beat. I used a deck only with creatures costing 2 or less. You will never Mulligan with this deck. (-;
