This release adds support for the Planeswalker card type and includes 13
Planeswalkers. For those who are curious about what the AI is thinking about,
it is now possible to peak at the AI's hand using the "s" (switch view)
keyboard shortcut. The Minimax AI has been modified to use no more than "AI
level" seconds for each decision, a feature borrowed from the Monte Carlo Tree
Search AI.

See https://code.google.com/p/magarena/wiki ... ntingCards for more
details of how to help add your favourite cards to Magarena.

Includes contributions from melvin, Jak, and sponeta.

Magarena NOW WITH PLANESWALKERS!!! OMFG! Thank you so much, dev team! I follow this project for years and I never get tired of it!

I think this is not the most adequate place to write this, but I really want to see a simple tourney mode with a few AI opponents, with score and standings. This would be EPIC in this game.

Forgive my simple English and my off-topic suggestions, and thanks again for the best single-player card game experience of them all!
