Already? Mtga uses the magic online engine, which is quite old.

This is probably the result of technical debt already in place

In my defense, the stack traces were super misleading! These developers are wizards :D

I never meant it as an insult or anything like that!

The truth is that you're always amassing tech debt, whether you make bad decisions or not.

However, this isn't tech debt, it's not a result of using the MTGO engine (our engine is new), and Mastermind's Acquisition isn't broken (you can play the card and choose the second mode without a sideboard).

Here is the long awaited Fblthp card

it is actually possibly playable while being also incredibly thematic and well designed

Well played WotC, well played

As soon as I saw this, I called dibs on it for Arena (I think something about it having an if-then modifying a trigger that triggers it didn't work). I love this little guy!

This one was !FUN!. Consider Opalescence and TTT any other enchantment. It's not a creature until it's on the battlefield- which means it enters as a creature. However, by the time it's on the battlefield (which is when it's a creature), it's too late for it to enter with a +1/+1 counter on it. Because, you know, Winding Constrictor.

In the end, the AI is basically like: "Yeeeaaah, I think I know what you're looking for." and just makes something up.

When she enters~~~~" and then it starts a new sentence, whenever a creature dies she uses the same effect. So I'm thinking as long as creatures die she'll give out -1/-1 counters, not just the turn she entered

It only works on the turn she enters.
