A quest strategy question

The A.I. tends to underestimate flanking all the time, at least as far as the pet is concerned.

Bushido also and Deathtouch to a certain extent (99% of the time the 1/4 Plant makes a nice trap haha)

I just found a new combo. Molting Skin and the Plant Wall that can be purchased in the bazaar.

Bladed Pinions into Plant Wall much more cruel. Flying, First Strike, Deathtouch. Pretty much a permanent Pestilent Kathari heh

[timmermac]

Yeah, that works too. I like being able to regenerate my wall for the cost of just returning a card to my hand that I can cast the next turn.

I decided to import my MultipleWaysToWin deck to use in my quest. Oh, man, was that a good idea. See the attached screenshot to see what the deck can do.

[timmermac]

I will now thank the computer for giving me turns to pull this game out of my rump. Computer had me at 8 life and control of an Akroma, Angel of Wrath the he'd stolen from me with a Bribery. The computer used a Nevinyrral's Disk at that point. /facepalm.

Edit: I won 2 turns later with a Battle of Wits.

[timmermac]

Holy crap... The Jund Plainswalker deck has a bunch of Planeswalkers in it. The computer has cast Liliana Vess, Sarkhan Vol and Chandra Nalaar so far in the game. Good thing I've got a Battle of Wits out.

[timmermac]

casting a Coat of Arms when the computer has a bunch of Saprolings out isn't the best of ideas, Dwarf.

[timmermac]

2x Baneslayer Angel each with an Eldrazi Conscription on it = I'm doomed.

[timmermac]

This isn't really a bug report, so I'm going to put it in my Quest topic. Started a new quest after I picked up r6208 off the SVN. After winning my first match with version 5 of my Dragon deck, a dialog box popped up telling me exactly which cards I won after the match. Cool new feature.

[Rob Cashwalker]

Yeah, I just added that. It was a bit of a kludge actually. I broke the "new" rarity in the deck editor, by forcing the rarity of the most recent printing. However, I've since fixed that, but leaving the list in the dialog can't hurt, and has been requested. At some point I want that dialog to be more fully featured to display the card images.

[timmermac]

I think Dennis has something like that working in his Shandalar mod for Forge. I seem to remember after winning a match, I got card pictures.

[Rob Cashwalker]

yep... but keep in mind that currently when you win a random rare it is displayed. I'm sure whatever mechanism that is using can be extended.. I just haven't tried yet.

[friarsol]

Timmer this ones for you. Beastly 3 card, 8 mana combo, that my latest Quest mode started with.
