Can't be done at the moment. Basically we can't target spells or abilities on the stack with damage prevention at this stage. Same with all "a source of your choice" cards.

[sagephoenix]

1 Cost Restrictions
2 Mana Restrictions
3 Multiblocking
4 Any Blocking
5 Changing Color of Spells.
6 Banding

About when would targeting spells and sources to prevent be implemented? If you're that far yet.

Probably somewhere around number 5.

Is Manamorphose doable?

With the following cards

• Consume Spirit
• Bramble Elemental
• Urge to Feed
• Dead Reckoning
• Reiver Demon
• Phyrexian Colossus

the following precrafted WotC decks will become forgable:
DotP12 Auramancer, DotP12 Blood Hunger, DotP12 Grave Whisper, DotP12 Machinations, Divine vs Demonic: Demonic (Divine is already complete), Phyrexia vs Coalition: Phyrexia.
Consume Spirit is used in two of those decks and will complete Grave Whisper.

To complete Phyrexia vs Coalition, the Coalition deck needs most work:

• Darigaaz, the Igniter
• Gerrard Capashen
• Sunscape Battlemage
• Coalition Relic
• Rith's Charm

[Iran]

.Homeward Path, Martyr's Bond, Semblance Anvil, Puca's Mischief.

With the replacement effects avaible in script:
Vigor, Abundance, Tomorrow, Azami's Familiar, Possessed Portal, Lich's Mirror

Thanks

Just so everyone knows, I am currently entertaining myself with an idea on how to make Chaos Orb and Falling Star possible to play in Forge. I've messed around with scripting some custom cards, and I basically get the general idea of it. Once I find a way to make it for certain possible in Forge, I'll see if any programmers want to help. =p

Can't wait for... "Now pick up your laptop and throw it in the air"

Care to share? I have given Chaos Orb some consideration recently. And I understand the new UI just enough to be dangerous.

Lol! I chuckled for a good 5 minutes at that.

Well, as we obviously know, we can't physically move a digital object. We could emulate it very well, but that's a ridiculous amount of work involved. The difficult way to do it, is to make a statistical simulation. Basically each card has an X% chance of being touched by Chaos Orb. But then we have to consider those cards being positioned near each other (Idk if that's even possible to check in Forge). [So we don't have a land on the far right destroyed and an enchantment on the far left also destroyed.] The flipping over part is easy though, we could just get away with a 50/50 like a coin flip. Though it will have to be coded differently because of the thumb artifact that lets you ignore coin flips.

An easier way is to have an option "Do you want to tear up this card and sprinkle it over pieces?" Which is basically a one-sided board wipe. Which is legal as long as it's immediately replaced (which is no problem in the digital world). That does make it an extremely overpowered card though.

So we have two choices, difficult or easy.

My thought were more along these lines:

During the resolve:
1. prompt the user to click somewhere on the battlefield
2. We can get an X,Y position from that click.
3. Randomly orient the Chaos Orb card (drawn same size as battlefield cards) on the battlefield (include some sort of X,Y offset generated randomly to account for dropping from 1 foot +)
4. Include some random percentage to simulate the card not flipping completely over. Though I'd expect this to be small. May take some play-testing with a real Magic Card!
5. Destroy any card that has a part of it exposed (which should be every card of the battlefield) and the part that is exposed is within the randomly oriented rectangle or the Chaos Orb. <--This is probably the hard part.

I think this is fair, and pretty realistic. I've never played with an actual Chaos Orb myself. I'm not going to add the ability to tear it up (though, that may be a fun easter egg to put in Forge. Hmmm...). I can also probably do something with the Animation class (used when you draw a card for example) to have some kind of realistic animation.

Thoughts?

I was hoping to see Rathi Dragon since last xmas... I know it is not the most popular dragon but I had fond memories using them for ultra fast red deck in the Tempest block. I can't believe Rainbow Efreet beats it to show up first.

Desolation is a black card I would love to see. I used it in a pure black creature-less deck. I am not sure but there is no Drain Life too. It was such a common black staple card? May be it got banned or something.. sorry I didn't play for years.

How about those licid? Dominating Licid was a great member in the blue control deck.

Harvest Wurm is also a card I missed seeing. It is fast and great for green deck.

Just a couple of wishes
