[Not Solved] + [Unfixable] Bug Archive

[Aswan jaguar]

What about Aswan Jaguar not be able to target Adaptive Automaton 's (chosen type)?

[Gargaroz]

You should be recoded, Jaguar

[Shantak]

What if there are two Adaptive Automatons of the same selected creature type? Do they boost each other successfully in Manalink?

[stassy]

Well, a screenshot talk more than any explanation :



Don't ask me why AI choose Crocodile subtype for his 1st automaton

: Aeon Chronicler power and toughness looks like X-1, where X is the number of cards in player'shand. For AI, it looks working fine.

[stassy]

confirmed, but it only happen if you cast it with Suspend ability and it start at the last counter, creating a "suspended" card attached to the creature which count your hand with one less card than what you really have.

This bug randomly disappear if AI cast normally another suspend card or if the "enchanted by suspend" creature die.

[Gargaroz]

There is something hardcoded behind this bug and I cannot fix it right now.

Describe the Bug:
Mana from Grand Architect can't be used to add a counter to Titan Forge.

Which card did behave improperly ?
Grand Architect (+ Titan Forge)

Which update are you using?(date,name)Which type(Duel,Gauntlet,Sealed Deck)
28 January 2012 : Manalink 3.0 - Duel

What exactly should be the correct behavior/interaction ?
See above.

Are any other cards possibly affected by this bug ?
No idea.

Is this because the mana generated by Grand Architect is listed under "Artifact" mana, and can be used only to launch artifact spells (but not activate their abilities)?

[Gargaroz]

This is unfixable right now. Grand Architect is only an approximation.

[BlueTemplar]

Shouldn't the card description be modified to reflect this? Also don't you usually add an asterisk to the cards that are not working properly?

[stassy]

The new policy to making cards now is just to modify the text, for coding sake the name is left unmodified

[Althuna]

Is there a way to stop cards from sacrificing immediately after you evoke them? Cards like Mulldrifter and Shriekmaw for example. I'm pretty sure you should be able to use something like momentary blink on them as soon as they land, and then save them from dying. But currently they just die instantly.

[stassy]

Yes it's a legal combo

702.71a. Evoke represents two abilities: a static ability that functions in any zone from which the card with evoke can be cast and a triggered ability that functions on the battlefield. "Evoke [cost]" means "You may cast this card by paying [cost] rather than paying its mana cost" and "When this permanent enters the battlefield, if its evoke cost was paid, its controller sacrifices it." Paying a card's evoke cost follows the rules for paying alternative costs in rules 601.2b and 601.2e-g.

But don't know if it is doable in ML, might require a recoding of the card...
