For Accountancy: Through the Breach

If you do, add this card's effects to that spell.)
End

The Splice onto Arcane bit is also partially implemented. When you cast an arcane spell you'll be asked whether you want to splice the spell. If you do, pay the cost and the spell will go onto the stack. So essentially the only difference from the correct implementation is that both parts would have to be countered separately instead of as one enlarged spell, and the spliced bit can be copied because it is a new spell on the stack.

Here's Reap without targeting the opponent (so can still be cast if he has shroud):

What about Memory's Journey? I think it has the same problem as Reap.

End


Those eager to try the new Sorin, here's a half-implemented version of it (and as far as I know will remain incomplete for now). I don't know if this destroy-and-steal is scriptable, so I simplified it a bit for laziness sake. You directly gain control of up to three creatures/planeswalkers without destroying them first.

Bonus: I wanna give Spellskite a try, basically this way:

PU: Copy target spell, then counter target spell.

Makes sense right? Copy the original spell (say Lightning Bolt) and you (human) will necessarily target Spellskite with the copied spell. Then counter the original spell.

I could script it right now, but there's a bug regarding copying spells/new targeting, so this idea becomes pointless.

End


The idea is to abuse Snapcaster Mage 's code and give your spells flashback instead of copying them. That way you can cast the spell twice with distinct targets. Riku of Two Reflections and Chandra, the Firebrand are the cards I'm currently using, but this code can be used in any copy spell, like Twincast or Fork. The add mana WWUUBBRRGG is so that you can cast your flashback spell for free, emulating the act of spell copying.

This card doesn't work exactly as it's printed, in that you're not really making a choice, plus it's 4 abilities instead of just 1, but I note that Umezawa's Jitte 's ability is made with 3 abilities, as well. Plus as usual, there may be other issues I'm just not seeing.

This is a non-functional difference. I don't see a problem with this script and will add it.

The only thing not working is that you can target the same creature twice. I looked at adding IsNotRemembered as a card property but the cards get added to remembered list during resolution which is too late for restricting targets.

Did you try the "TargetUnique$ True" parameter. It should prevent targeting the same creature twice.

That's close enough for a Half-Implementation, but if the first "Fighter" has Wither or Infect the second Fighter will have reduced P/T before it deals damage. The rules state this damage happens simultaneously.

Check the script for Dungeon Geists here:

viewtopic.php?f=52&t=5804&start=120

If your opponent takes control of your Dungeon Geists, there is no current scriptable way to clear the remembered card, but otherwise it works fine.

[SoulStorm]

Thanks Jeff, that is a little better. Is there a close to correct script out there for Curse of Echoes? It's the only card I'm missing from my WU Spirit deck now.

Edit: Actually, I prefer my version. With the version you linked, if you bounce Dungeon Geists you can keep multiple creatures tapped.
