Dark Ascension spoiler season

[ArsenalNut]

The targeting for Flayer of the Hatebound is not quite right. It should allow damage to Planeswalkers also. In cases where the targeting is very basic like just creatures and/or players, I think it is better to use the "Tgt$" syntax rather than "ValidTgts$", otherwise you have to explicitly add planeswalker to the list of valid targets.

I had that at one stage but was getting crashes on resolution. But maybe it was something else I changed afterwards that fixed it. I'll test quickly then commit to DKA branch.

Here's a simple one, made from modifying Clinging Darkness.

Has Chant of the Skifsang been confirmed as it's proper english name and not just a fan-translation from the german card?

Seems legit enough?

[Hellfish]

Looks good to me. I'd only seen the german card on salvation.

Dudes, is it just me or is Grafdigger's Cage an expansion nuclear bomb?

[slapshot5]

Does this work better for you? I made the text slightly whiter and the relevant color swatch about twice as dark.

Yeah, it's better. Thanks.

Not just an expansion bomb. Its going to change the whole standard metagame. Anyone running a Burning Vengeance or Snapcaster Mage deck is going to have to sideboard a few cards to remove the Cage if it shows up. Give it shroud and the nuclear bomb gets a bunch of extra fallout.

Even vintage reanimator decks will keep a wary eye out for this card.

[moomarc]

Thanks DeadSpeak. I've commited those for you.

[DeadSpeak]

Seeing as WotC have made an Emblem token for Sorin, Lord of Innistrad's -2 ability, is it possible to add that picture to Forge, so that it shows up instead of the black box we have now?

Hey ZzzzSleep, the SVar= in SubAbility is no longer required. Please remove it from future scripts as it will soon be unsupported.
