Let me know if this is what you had in mind. I'm happy to change the reporting format if something different would be clearer. Unfortunately the forum's autocard feature doesn't seem to work for any of these card names.

[drool66]

Perfect, thank you
[EDIT] All fixed

From drool66's MH2 list: Territorial Kavu through Underworld Hermit

Territorial Kavu - ISSUE: Domain ability setting power / toughness at basic land types + 1 (shouldn't be +1). Also combat ability does not trigger when attacking.
I can't replicate the domain issue -drool
Thought Monitor - OK, including affinity and ETB card draw
Thraben Watcher - OK
Thrasta, Tempest's Roar - ISSUE: Casting cost not reduced by 3 per other spell cast this turn. Trample over planeswalkers ability doesn't work.
Tide Shaper - ISSUE: Without paying the kicker it comes into play fine and properly gets +1/+1 bonus if opp. controls an island. IF the kicker is paid, game crashes to desktop. See tideshaper_dump.txt attached.
Timeless Dragon - OK, including Eternalize and Plainscycling
Timeless Witness - ISSUE: base creature and ETB effect ok, but cannot use Eternalize effect after it goes to GY.
Tireless Provisioner - ISSUE: base creature ok, Landfall ability creates only Treasure tokens but should offer choice of Food or Treasure.
Tizerus Charger - OK, including Escape

Tormods Cryptkeeper - ISSUE, base creature works, including tap/sac ability, however issues came up when Tormod's Cryptkeeper was in GY. In some (but not all) test games, spells that return target card from graveyard were specifically unable to retrieve Tormods Cryptkeeper. I tried Raise Dead (return creature) and Reconstruction (return artifact). Another creature card in GY at same time (Bird of Paradise) was retrievable without issue. See attached savegame tormodscryptkeeper.rar (build: eab1a7b -gauntlet)

Tourach, Dread Cantor - OK, including kicker
Tourachs Canticle - OK
Tragic Fall - OK, including hellbent
Unbounded Potential - OK, including entwine option

All fixed, see note under Territorial Kavu -drool

Squirrel Sanctuary - OK, including return to hand
Squirrel Sovereign - OK, including squirrel bonus
Steel Dromedary - OK, including untap and counters
Steelfin Whale - OK, including affinity and untap
Step Through - OK, including wizardcycling
Storm God's Oracle - OK, including pump and death effect
Strike It Rich - OK, including flashback
Subtlety - ISSUE: Instead of putting target creature/planeswalker spell onto top/bottom of library (owner's choice), it simply counters the spell, sending it to GY. Card otherwise OK, including Evoke option.
Sudden Edict - ISSUE: Upon casting goes directly to GY with no targeting and no effect
Suspend - OK
Svyelun Of Sea And Sky - ISSUE: Base creature ok, invulnerability ok, card draw combat effect ok, but effect that grants 'Ward' to other merfolk doesn't happen
Sweep The Skies - ISSUE: Asks you to pay X cost multiple times, ultimately returns spell to hand without effect
Sword Of Hearth And Home - OK, including combat effects
Sylvan Anthem - OK, including Scry
Sythis Harvests Hand - OK, including life gain and card draw

From drool66's MH2 list: Scion of Draco through Soul of Migration



Scion Of Draco - ISSUE: Domain not working to lower casting cost. Also the abilities it grants other creatures is incorrect for white and green: white should gain vigilance and green should gain trample; instead white is getting both vigilance/trample and green gets nothing. Black, blue and red creatures are granted the correct abilities.

Scour The Desert - OK
Scurry Oak - OK, including evolve/squirrels
Scuttletide - OK, including Delirium
Search The Premises - OK
Serra's Emissary - ISSUE: Base creature ok, but does not grant protection from chosen card type
Shattered Ego - OK, including bounce to deck
Sinister Starfish - OK, including Surveil
Skophos Reaver - OK, including Madness
Skyblade's Boon - OK, including return to hand
Slag Strider - OK, including Affinity and sac/dmg
Smell Fear - OK
So Shiny - OK, including tap n' scry
Sojourners Companion - ISSUE: Affinity for Artifacts not working, otherwise all okay
Sol Talisman - OK
Solitude - OK, including evoke
Soul Of Migration - ISSUE: base creature and ETB tokens ok, but Evoke option not available


I'll add one 'old' card I noticed an issue with in the dev build (eab1a7b). Oath of Nissa is (properly) allowing you to substitute colored mana requirements for planeswalker spells, but it is also eliminating all colorless mana requirements from the casting cost. This bug isn't present in the current live release, so I thought I'd mention it. Thanks!

All fixed, including Oath of Nissa & all alternative costs -drool66

From drool66's MH2 list: Prophetic Titan through Sanctum Weaver


Prophetic Titan - ISSUE: Casting crashes game. No dump.txt created.
Radiant Epicure - ISSUE: Asks you to pay casting cost multiple times, ultimately returning to hand uncast
Ragavan, Nimble Pilferer - OK, including Dash and combat effect

Ravenous Squirrel - ISSUE: Base creature ok, but sacrifice/card draw bugged out when similar effect on Liliana, Dreadhorde General was in play. See attached savegame ravenous_squirrel.rar (build: eab1a7b -gauntlet)

Raving Visionary - ISSUE: Base creature alright, card draw options only work correctly if Delirium condition is met. If your graveyard doesn't meet Delirium condition, clicking Raving Visionary simply draws a card without tapping or charging mana.

Recalibrate - ISSUE: Bounce effect works, but card draw (if discarded this turn) doesn't happen
Resurgent Belief - OK
Revolutionist - ISSUE: Base creature and ETB fetch from GY are okay, but Madness doesn't trigger when discarded.

Rise And Shine - OK, including Overload
Rishadan Dockhand - OK, including land tap and islandwalk
Road // Ruin - ISSUE: 'Road' casting cost wrong, but effect works. 'Ruin' casting cost correct, but effect doesn't happen.
Said // Done - ISSUE: Casts without effect when attempting either option (Said or Done)
Sanctifier En Vec - ISSUE: Does not have protection black/red, exiles black/red cards from opponent GY only, rather than from all GY
Sanctimony - OK
Sanctuary Raptor - OK, including token bonus
Sanctum Weaver - ISSUE: Base creature ok, mana tap ability doesn't work

Loathsome Curator - ISSUE: Base creature ok, Menace ok, but Exploit effect gives target creature +1/+1 counter rather than destroying it
Lonis Cryptozoologist - ISSUE: Base creature ok, but Investigate ability triggers on lands and token creatures (should trigger only for nontoken creatures) and tap to sacrifice X Clues ability results in neither sacrifice nor effect.
Lucid Dreams - OK
Magus Of The Bridge - OK, including zombies and self-exile

THX gnometry for beta testing.

I'm a bit busy and can't help much myself.

[gnomefry]

From drool66's MH2 list: Ghost-Lit Drifter through Kaleidoscorch


Ghost-Lit Drifter - ISSUE: base creature ok, Channel ok, but ability to give flying to another creature taps Ghost-Lit Drifter. The effect works but activation shouldn't tap Ghost-Lit Drifter.

Gilt-Blade Prowler - ISSUE: base creature ok but card draw ability doesn't become available for use after having discarded during the turn

Glimmer Bairn - ISSUE: base creature ok, but 'sac a token to gain +2/+2' ability grants the bonus without requiring the sacrifice

Glimpse Of Tomorrow - ISSUE: Card draw window refers to "Warp World" (similar spell, perhaps used as template?). Legacy text missing. Otherwise spells works.

Glinting Creeper - ISSUE: Makes you pay casting cost a second time
Glorious Enforcer - OK, including combat ability
Goblin Anarchomancer - OK, including G/R spell mana reduction
Goblin Traprunner - OK, including coin-flip goblins
Goblins Of The Flarg - OK, including mountainwalk
Gouged Zealot - OK, including Delirium

Graceful Restoration - ISSUE: Choosing the first effect results in nothing happening, choosing the second effect works properly

Grief - ISSUE: In the first set of tests everything about it was fine (base creature, discard, Evoke casting). Later I retrieved it from the GY and recast only to have the game hang on the error: "drawcardlib.dll - could not open rarity.dat: No such file or directory"

Grist The Hunger Tide - ISSUE: First ability mills but doesn't create token. Second ability works. Third ability doesn't do anything. Properly counts as creature while in hand or GY (tested with Resurrect and Elvish Piper)

Hard Evidence - OK, including Investigate
Hell Mongrel - OK, including discard pump and Madness
Herd Baloth - OK, including beast tokens
Inevitable Betrayal - ISSUE: OK except for legacy text
Jewel-Eyed Cobra - OK, including deathtouch and treasure token
Junk Winder - OK, including Affinity for Tokens and tap ability

Kaldra Compleat - ISSUE(maybe): OK, including all abilities, exile upon damage and germ token. Only minor issue to report is that when opponent tried to destroy germ token (which had Invulnerable due to Kaldra Compleat), the germ token acquired the slashed dying graphic and a "dying" tooltip for remainder of game. Possibly more of a general issue than this card in particular.

Kaleidoscorch - ISSUE: Normal casting requires casting cost be paid a second time. Flashback cast asks only once, but spell does zero damage.

I wasn't sure if this part of the list needed a look, but I gave it one:

-coded, need testing-
Blossoming Calm - OK, including alt legacy text
Faithless Salvaging - OK, including rebound. Still needs effect text
Gaea's Will - OK, still needs effect text



(I'm embarrassed to say that, working backwards as I was, until I got near the top of the list and saw your notes about 'alt legacy text' I wasn't specifically checking the effect text on some of the earlier suspend/rebound stuff and other effects that hang around. Sorry!)

[drool66]

MH2 is done! I'll have a new beta patch soon for CMR & STX

[gnomefry]

Hi, drool66. In the cards I've looked at so far it doesn't seem like the mechanics for Strixhaven are in. Magecraft isn't working and cards with Learn/Lesson not only fail to work, but also hang or crash the game.


From drool66's STX list: Academic Probation through Emergent Sequence

Academic Probation - ISSUE: Effect lasted until EOT rather than until caster's next turn
Access Tunnel - OK, both mana and unblockability

Accomplished Alchemist - ISSUE: Tap-for-single-mana works, tap-for-multiple-mana (= to life gained) doesn't work. Base creature ok.

Ageless Guardian - OK
Arcane Subtraction - Casting Arcane Mastery hangs game with error: drawcardlib.dll: Could not open rarity.dat
Archmage Emeritus - ISSUE: Magecraft card draw doesn't happen. Base creature ok.
Archway Commons - OK

Augmenter Pugilist // Echoing Equation: ISSUE: Augmenter Pugilist ok, including land bonus. Echoing Equation option has wrong casting cost and results in an Air Elemental coming into play.

Baleful Mastery - OK, including both casting options
Basic Conjuration - OK, both fetch and lifegain
Bayou Groff - OK, including casting cost options
Beaming Defiance - OK
Beledros Witherbloom - ISSUE: All ok except pest tokens created don't have life gain upon death.
Biomathematician - OK, including token
Blade Historian - OK, including doublestrike

Blex, Vexing Pest // Search for Blex: ISSUE: Search for Blex casting option not available. Creature Blex requires paying casting twice. Creature Blex gives itself +1/+1 bonus but shouldn't. Creature Blex otherwise OK.

Blood Age General - OK
Blood Researcher - ISSUE: Base creature ok, Menace ok, counters for life gain doesn't happen.
Blot Out the Sky - OK
Body of Research - OK

Callous Bloodmage - ISSUE: Base creature and ETB effects (choose 1 of 3) all okay except pest token doesn't have life gain upon death.

Campus Guide - OK, including land fetch
Clever Lumimancer - ISSUE: Base creature ok, Magecraft ability doesn't happen
Codie, Vociferous Codex - ISSUE: Doesn't allow you to play lands. Otherwise works.
Confront the Past- OK, both options
Containment Breach - OK
Crackle with Power - OK
Cram Session - ISSUE: Casting Cram Session hangs game with error: drawcardlib.dll: Could not open rarity.dat
Crushing Disappointment - OK

Culling Ritual - ISSUE: Rather than destroying all nonland permanents with mana value 2 of less, it destroys all lands. Properly adds B/G mana for each permanent destroyed.

Culmination of Studies - ISSUE: Casting Culmination of Studies hangs game with error: drawcardlib.dll: Could not open rarity.dat

Curate - ISSUE: Casting hangs the game. No error message, must force close.

Daemogoth Titan - ISSUE: OK except game allows you to cancel out of sacrifice and still attack/block. Should be mandatory.

Daemogoth Woe-Eater - OK, including sacrifice and self-sacrifice
Deadly Brew - OK, including GY fetch
Decisive Denial - ISSUE: Casting crashes game. No dump.txt.
Devastating Mastery - OK, including both casting costs
Dina, Soul Steeper - ISSUE: Doesn't cause opponent to lose 1 life each time you gain life. Otherwise all okay.

Divide by Zero - ISSUE: Several issues. Seems to insist on 2 colorless mana as part of casting cost. Prompts you to select target permanent with CMC 0 or 1 (should be 1 or >1 and shouldn't be limited to permanents). Spell effect doesn't happen (neither return to hand or Learn) and hangs game without error or dump.txt (requires force close).
Question: the casting cost of Divide by Zero is {U}, so itshouldinsist on for the casting cost, right? -drool66
The 2U in its cost is asking for a blue mana and two generic mana (mana of any, or no, color). It shouldn't insist on a portion of its cost being paid with strictly colorless mana, such as cards like Spatial Contortion do. - gnomefry

Double Major - OK, including nonlegend status

Draconic Intervention - ISSUE: Only allows additional cast cost to be paid with a sorcery (an instant should also be eligible). Upon successful casting does not exile Draconic Intervention. Otherwise works as advertised.

Dragon's Approach - ISSUE: Works individually, but once 4 are in your GY, instead of triggering the dragon fetch it hangs the game requiring force close.

Dragonsguard Elite - ISSUE: Magecraft ability doesn't happen. Otherwise all okay.
Dramatic Finale - ISSUE: Inkling token not created once per turn upon death of nontoken creature. Otherwise ok.

Dream Strix - ISSUE: Base creature ok, but targeting it with spell (which should force its sacrifice), OR making it dead through other means, hangs the game with error: drawcardlib.dll: Could not open rarity.dat.

Ecological Appreciation - ISSUE: Casting causes error message and hangs the game. Dump.txt attached.

Efreet Flamepainter - ISSUE: Base creature ok, including doublestrike, but combat ability to cast instant/sorcery from GY doesn't happen.

Elemental Expressionist - ISSUE: Base creature ok but Magecraft ability doesn't happen.
Elemental Summoning - OK

Emergent Sequence - ISSUE: Fetched basic land is briefly put into play but gets no counters even if prior lands played that turn. Result is it goes to GY as a 0/0 creature.

Few if any of the STX MDFCs should be working correctly; I'm updating them now and I'll update you when that's finished.
