Cards you’d like to play in Wagic ?
I’m currently spending lots of times on the game engine itself, and didn’t add any new cards recently. If I were to add a few new cards, what would be your top 5 ?
Note that if you’re desperately looking for new cards, we have a small but very active community on the forums, and around a hundred new cards are already available !
In the end, of course, the decision is mine. Adding new cards adds bugs and maintenance, so it’s less important than improving the engine itself, but it’s generally more fun for me 🙂
counterspell
cancel
fork
chainlightning
icy manipulator
zuran orb ice age
clone several sets
vesuvian doppleganger revised
copy artifact revised
boomerrang unknown sets
i could go on, but some of these are quite lofty endeavors…..
all 4th edition =P
4th edition is probably more doable than any copy spell at the moment :p
okay, okay, i know i ask for lofty things (see all my posts)
1. zuran orb (very do able)
2. boomerang (a much better version of unsummon because you can “unsummon” any permanent)
3. Stripmine (tap for colorless or tap to bury target land…..FUN!!)
4. demonic tutor (a “regrowth” for your library….)
5. drain life or soul burn (IA, much better for R/B)
and i will cheat a little…….
6. Mishra’s Factory….. a land that can become a creature and then a land again (i know lofty again..)
7. Maze of Ith (the dark)…. so much better than Ice Flow (IA), again willow will be tested and will suceed
8.”Charge” lands (intially from Fallen Emp., ex. bottomless vault)..leave it tapped it gains a counter, untap/tap remove X counters and add X (color) mana to manapool. fun for so many spells, much less reminds me of mana battery artifacts, but the land s are much cooler..
9. Ancestral recall, way unbalanced and way easy to implement (i think, i know willow knows better)
10. and why not, Time walk….another chance to do another turn and only for 2 mana….
maybe the focus should just be implementing abilities, because as sets are released “old card text” becomes a single word ability (ex. vigilance, lifelink, haste, etc)
Just because of my fascination for an old deck of mine:
– balance
– demonic tutor
– zuran orb
– ancestral recall
– Juzaam Djinn
– well, the moxes, black lotus and any over the top spoilers (well, thinking back, everything I am asking for is spoiler)
I haven’t tested them, but I think the moxes are available in the “user created content” forum
It’s just me that dont like the unbalanced cards?
I say, there’s a reason for cards like ancestrall recall and copy spell are never printed on later versions, and banned/restricted from tournaments.
I still beg you for a way to apply rules restricting cards on a later version of *** =)
oops, WTH no ***, sorry =)
Haha, that’s a funny one 🙂
Just one question : what is the reason you wouldn’t create yourself the decks that match the rules you want to play with (rather than having the game decide for you) ?
Is it because you want to make sure that if you select a given mode, the AI won’t play with some banned cards ?
The boomerang should be exacly the same as unsommon…. also it should contain:
alias=1229
target=*¦opponentinplay
The cards I wil like:
1. zuran Orb (definitely feasible)
2. Icy manipulator (this one too)
Grüssi
Abra
I think boomerang should be
target=*
rather than
target=*|opponentinplay
since the text doesn’t say the card has to be controlled by an opponent
