Time for exciting news, friends ! As finally Mok has returned to our development crew, the possibiliy of breaking the "2000 card limit" is really more near.
As we wait for this, here's another update with a lot of new / updated stuff : I founded some empty slots in Costructed and Limted CSV and put it in good use ;)
Plus, you'll find some changes in Challenge mode too, so finally we got rid of all unnecessary Walls in Costructed.
And finally New Limited is completed, with the whole Innistrad set ready for playing.
So, until we got the "big news", have fun playing ! :)

Bravo, Garagaroz :) I'm very interested in the fixes right now but will not add any of those cards to my Custom since I really hope that soon we shall be able to have all of those cards together in one single set.

EDIT: (after 1 single game) Latest version looks unstable. Until now, my hand size has been resized to 6 cards, one of my creatures has been exiled without being the target of any ability, and my graveryard has been partially re-shuffled into library without any spell, permanent or effect doing that.

No stability problem here beside the usual sneaky bugs in NL, now most of the current standard inny meta game decks are working and are very fun to play :D.

I have to admit that those bugs didn't repeat later on with the same deck. maybe it was just some occasional occurrence.

Gargaroz, are you sure you have uploaded the right files? I've just played Gaea's Blessing to test the game and it has forzen...

I'm sure as I tested it before uploading, plus Gaea's Blessing doesn't use the bugged code. And it seems you've discovered a new bug, I'll check it.

Oh btw it's a very good idea to make the random singleton mode not so random, some options are always nice to choose your deck color and block =D>

The only drawback is that artefacts are eating almost half of the deck size.

Also as Random singleton will activate Deadbox most of the time (you will also know by his presence that you will have a random card that affect graveyard :p) you won't be able to save most of the time, but it's a little nitpick.

If you play Random Singleton with New Limited and choose Innistrad block, you'll probably experience a bit of lag, but that's the usually ones due to cards with Flashback.
