[confirmed]Leylines and EDH

by **HarlequinCasts** » 23 Oct 2014, 21:35

Describe the Bug:
Leylines in your opening hand trigger before the EDH card triggers to start the game. As a result, you get the Leyline in play AND you get to draw 7 EDH cards.

Leylines not in your opening hand, but that are in the opening hand given to you by the EDH card (or subsequent EDH mulligans) are not put into play.

It's hard to reproduce this, however if you save a game on the first turn where it happens you get to see it all happen. Please see the attached save for an example with Leyline of the Void in your opening hand before the EDH card triggers.

The reason for the bug is pretty obvious, but I'll leave it to you guys to decide if this is an approximation or if there is any way to alter it so it leylines work with EDH.

Which card did behave improperly ?
Leylines and EDH

Which update are you using?(date,name)Which type(Duel,Gauntlet,Sealed Deck)
m15 mini 5

What exactly should be the correct behavior/interaction ?
Leyline goes into play only after EDH mulligans are finished.

Are any other cards possibly affected by this bug ?
all Leylines.

This also happens with the Chancellor cycle (Chancellor of the Spires etc).

I doubt this is fixable without messing up non-EDH games.

Oh yeah I've seen that too. And I agree, I would not be at all surprised if fixing this just isnt worth it. At least as a workaround for the Leylines you can simply choose not to put them into play and/or cheat them into play to fix it.

Is this still an issue/is it worth fixing?
