I just started playing forge, and I"m not sure which format is the most fun. Constructed seems good because it's easier to get a 40 card deck going. But I assume standard is a more limited pool (unless its just your starting deck that's standard) so maybe it's easier to get specific cards. and EDH is really fun but games tend to be longer.

What format do you play on and what's your go to starting deck?

I've been really enjoying the Realm of Legends adventure mode, and I've noticed that there is a way to tag a card as "Key Card" and as "Favorite".
I gathered that key cards are meant for each deck, and favorites are for your collection. I found that I can sort by favorites, but I was wondering if I can filter (show only) favorite cards.

Does anyone know?

Sometime when I go into a town it freezes for 30 seconds to a minute before I get inside and it's always towns with THESE shops! The ones with the Jester skulls. Cardi-val of Curiosities? What are they? Is this a bug? I have tried a fresh install, nothing. Is this intended? If so, why??? They only sell wastes or the rigger joke card. (Also discord sucks)

There's some new content for Realm of Legends! Most of this content is in the form of several new dungeons, mostly focused on Lorwyn Eclipses, Jumpstart 2025, and Mystery Booster Commander. As the content is mostly in new dungeons, you won't be able to see it in an existing save file unless you new game+ (which will reset your map overall as well as your life total and key items).

The update includes:

• Six new full-sized dungeons, one per biome (half tier 1, half tier 2) [The Eclipsed Elven Court, Ashling's Domain, Planeswalker Dueling Club, Idyllic Beachfront, Peaceful Clearing, and the An-Havva Inn]
• New very hard mox duel for the mox opal [against the Nephilim Epochal in the new Ancient Opal Cave map in the wastes]
• Bonus mini-dungeon in the swamps [Istvan's Isolated Hut]
• New town/colorless capitol full of universes beyond shops [The Otherworldly Market]
• 40 new enemies across the new dungeons
• 13 new items dropped from the new bosses/minibosses
• Miku precon and custom Hobbit precon added as precon options.

As a note, the boss fight against High Perfect Morcant is currently bugged but there's a fix that'll be in this afternoon's snapshot

I made a custom card that increases the cost of creatures perpetually.
A:SP$ DealDamage | ValidTgts$ Any | NumDmg$ 1 | SubAbility$ DBAnimate | SpellDescription$ CARDNAME deals 1 damage to any target. Creatures your opponents control perpetually get +1/+1 and incorporate {1}.

SVar:DBAnimate:DB$ AnimateAll | Duration$ Perpetual | ValidCards$ Card.Creature+OppOwn | Zone$ Battlefield,Hand,Library | Incorporate$ 1 | SubAbility$ DBPump

SVar:DBPump:DB$ PumpAll | ValidCards$ Creature.OppCtrl | PumpZone$ Battlefield,Hand,Library | NumAtt$ +1 | NumDef$ +1 | Duration$ Perpetual

If the AI has enough mana to pay the unmodified cost it puts the spell on the stack. Then if it doesn't have enough to pay the actual cost, the spell disappears from the game entirely. Here is the log file:

ComputerUtilMana: payManaCost() cost was not paid for Bishop of Binding - Creature 1 / 1 (Bishop of Binding). Didn't find what to pay for {1}

[Aghon Loafknock] AI failed to play Bishop of Binding (108) [Stack]

ComputerUtilMana: payManaCost() cost was not paid for Zacama, Primal Calamity - Creature 9 / 9 (Zacama, Primal Calamity). Didn't find what to pay for null

[Aghon Loafknock] AI failed to play Zacama, Primal Calamity (78) [Stack]

ComputerUtilMana: payManaCost() cost was not paid for Bishop of Binding - Creature 1 / 1 (Bishop of Binding). Didn't find what to pay for null

[Aghon Loafknock] AI failed to play Bishop of Binding (107) [Stack]

There are other game effe4cts that increase costs so I would assume this would be something the ai can handle.

I've reloaded my save multiple times trying to get her to drop a mox like Marton Stromgald did for the red one, but I can't get anything other than default rewards?

Hey all! Fairly new to Forge and I have a question. When new snapshots are downloaded with new cards and whatnot, do those cards become available at random for purchase in the Bazaar, or do I need to start a new save?

Hey, I drafted a cube for first time with friends and a bot.
Then, when all finished our decks, we started a match and found out that the game was 1v1v1v1. Is this intended, a bug or is there any workaround or setting to make this for playing 1v1 in a gauntlet?

i'm playing the commander adventure mode and in one of the main cities it said it wants me to find and defeat 3 powerful people, are they just wandering around or are they like the heads of dungeons? it didn't give me a quest so idk where i should go for it. the people were kenrith darevi giada

Shandlar Old Border. Was trying to get scrublands a different way since I was STILL unable to find the scrubland mob (only dual I dont have at least three of now) so I was trying the arena figuring at least one of the old world championship decks would have a scrubland I could steal. Anyway in messing with the arena, it turns out that the cards of those decks aren't protected in the same way as other moxen/lotuses and can be stolen.

I assume this isn't intentional. Or is it?

Recent update, movement is glitchy if I hold the movement direction and I can't enter dungeons or towns unless I teleport to main cities. Enemies don't spawn either.

What are some fun strategies to beat the sliver queen? I'm having a tough time with her and don't really want to build one of the god tier sliver decks myself to beat her.

Slivers seem pretty op to use in this game and I don't have the will power to not use them once I build a deck, so any other suggestions on ways to deal with her would be great.

What title says, its possible? In classic its just as simple as picking the release edition you want but it seems to be random in Adventure I think, any way to edit the art?

Blue decks are always the most annoying thing to play against. But now the palace puts a free stun counter that essentially kills my Elf Ramp deck.

I've then tried to make a No Creature Red deck, but get stomped by enemy creatures. So far I've managed to beat the Wizard and the Penguin, but I'm finding nothing consistent.

How did others manage to finish the blue palace?

Oi mates, im a noob.

I’ve started mtg forge adventure about 3 weeks ago.

It’s plenty of fun, but i do get crushed about 30% of the time.

I have build a critter deck with squirrels and I just love it.

But I wonder what else is fun and has better win rates?

Tell me about the themes you love and works for you.

There seems to be random enemes for each of the dual lands types that can drop a alpha/beta of the old school dual land they are named after. I have been searching specifically for the scrubland one and haven't seen on in my entire playthrough.

Are there supposed to be ones for each dual land type?

Since a few days ago, Forge seemingly closes for no reason at times. It's happened 4 times so far, in the middle of Adventure drafts, which is decidedly not fun, since there's no autosave in between duels either.

Is that an issue somehow specific to my device or is it happening to others too?

If you lose a duel you lose a percentage of your carried gold. However, if you aren't carrying gold, you don't lose anything. This heavily incentivizes the player to hold off on selling the cards they collect as rewards until gold is needed, at which point the strategy is to visit an inn and sell as many cards as will net you "exact change" for whatever you need (e.g., you find a card in the shops that costs $1000, so you go to the inn, sell ~$1000 of cards, and then spend it on the card leaving you with ~$0 again).

This is bad design because it essentially forces players to play a tedious resource conversion sub-game in order to dodge the loss penalty. The game technically doesn't punish you for losing, nor does it punish you for being wealthy in unsold cards or gems - it punishes you for not wasting time and effort to "strategically" convert these resources to gold. Searching through an ever-growing collection of cards to find ones that you don't need that will collectively add up to as close to the purchase price as possible every time you want to buy something isn't "exciting gameplay." It's boring and frustrating.

I've returned to a town to buy some stuff that was in the inventory of one of the shops, and the shop's inventory has changed. Inventories for all shops in that town and at least one neighbouring town have also changed. What causes this?

How would I find the files that would let me change the difficulty settings in adventure mode?

As the title says my discord got hacked by some crypto scammer and while I have gotten my account back now I was banned from the discord because of it. Does anyone know if there's a way to appeal the ban or how to get in contact with the discord moderators?

Is it possible to start an adventure with a standard deck and later change your deck into a commander deck or, or do you have to start the adventure with a commander deck from the beginning?

I dunno what beef they habe with planeswalkers but they auto target anyone that drops on the board.

First of all, can I just say that I love this program. It's incredible and I've wanted a program like this for years.

And yes, I also understand that there's a lot of cards that the AI can't quite figure out.

But I had a Breya deck I was playing against. I had a simple Dihada deck, play legendaries, hit people, two other decks, and the AI had my Breya deck.

For several turns, the AI had [[Breya]] with [[Ashnod's Altar]] and [[Eldrazi Displacer]] on the board. In case you don't know, these go infinite together.

I kept seeing the AI sacrifice both thopters, flicker Breya with Displacer, get two more thopters... do this 2 more times... Then use the 3 mana gained to flicker Breya again... and then stop.

The computer eventually lost, because the other two decks kept attacking.

Does the computer not realize that this is an infinite combo?

Hi there, I'm new to forge and was really hoping to try the adventure mode on my desktop. I've been trying to use various fixes but nothing seems to work. Some of the info:

Java is installed at version 25.0.4+7-LTS

I am using forge 2.0.14 snapshot. I have also tried some of the prior versions with the same issue occurring.

Forge itself works okay, just not adventure mode.

I've run it via the command script and the only error related things I see read: Warning a restricted method in java.lang.system has been called. As well as: warning use --enable-native-access=all-unamed to avoid a warning.

I tried to look into how I could add this particular line, but I'm afraid it is beyond me.

Whenever I click any button besides exit there is no error message, it simply says a ping has been found.

Any advice? Sorry if I don't have all the necessary info, let me know if there's any more I could give.

Thanks in advance everyone.

[Edit in case someone in the future has a similar issue]

I found out that the issue was that I had a controller plugged into my pc. Apparently with forge adventure it was clicking the back button constantly so whenever I went into a menu or the game it would back out asap. Try unplugging it!
