Card Requests

[lazylockie]

Just a few cards away from being able to build ANT, (Ad Nauseum Tendrils, the blue-black Legacy storm deck).

Need Ad Nauseum. Doesn't seem like it would be that hard to create, although probably tricky for the AI. Maybe allow the computer to keep flipping until it reaches a certain life total?

Need Lion's Eye Diamond. It's just Black Lotus with "discard your hand" stapled on it. I'm guessing it's not in there because it's another one of those cards the AI doesn't know what to do with.

And Infernal Tutor. This card is probably the most complicated. You can only use it to tutor for cards already in your hand, unless you don't have any cards, then it becomes a full Demonic Tutor.

This is LED's script, since I'm not sure it's a correct implementation, I've put it on Half-Implemented topic. About Infernal Tutor, can't you just "proxy" Infernal with a Demonic Tutor itself? I don't know much about ANT, but it seems Infernal Tutor is only useful when coupled with LED isn't it?

A Redirect AbilityFactory would serve a few of these well. Does not exist yet.

[serrasmurf]

Would it be possible to add Restore Balance?
We already got Balance and suspend....
Thnx

Bloodline Shaman and Tribal Unity

[jeffwadsworth]

Balance is java coded, not scripted. We try not to add any more card-specific code to Forge and instead rely on Ability Factories, etc. Tribal Unity needs the ChooseType AB to accept X in the cost. It does not at the moment.

Cards to play in forge :::

1.Lich's Mirror => (This card have replacement effect )
2. Spellweaver Helix => (I Think this card is scriptable, very difficult to script )
3. Knowledge Pool => (This card could be scriptable if there was a way to cast cards without pay mana cost in script )
4. Abundance => (This card could be scriptable because of the new AF_Charm, but have replacement effect )
5. Thought Prison => (I Think this card is scriptable )
6. Deceiver Exarch => (I Think this card is scriptable because of the new AF_Charm )
7. Mindlock Orb (and similares) => (This card could be scriptable if there was a new AF or keyword that dealt with this )

9. Pyromancer Ascension => (I Think this card is scriptable, but others have tried and failed )
10. Staggershock => (Rebound Effect is not implemented yet )

The only thing that's weird about LED is that its activation is played like an instant instead of a traditional mana ability, so you can't sacrifice it to pay for a spell you just cast. You can however cast a spell (paying for its cost with whatever other mana sources you have) and THEN activate the diamond in response to the effect resolving, which is how the Infernal Tutor combo works. So to make the card work correctly, you simply have to disable whatever function allows you to use a card to generate mana in the middle of playing a spell or ability. (As you can with lands, Llanowar Elves, artifact mana, etc.)

As for the Demonic Tutor idea, that's actually a pretty good work-around, as you can always just enforce your own rules by only tutoring for a card that you'd normally be able to get. In the context of the deck, most of the time you are using it while Hellbent, but if you have multiple Tutors in hand you can also burn through extras to just get more cards and generate more storm.

Is Cloak and Dagger an option at all? It is generally a nice piece of equipment but in rogue decks (like my blue/white "make it rain" one) it really shines. Also Wizards keeps putting out new rogues so it should be evergeen.

Not yet, but when the equipment part of "Attach" is done, I assume it will be possible.

Is possible to script Scuttlemutt with new AF_Charm?
