Captain_Howel on List of Bugs and Feature …

I'm surprised no one else has mentioned, in the Checkout Acquireboard window the buttons to enter that list into CardKingdom, TCGPlayer, and CardHoarder are missing.

Meanwhile, here's an odd one: in a decklist I'm working on, Pick Your Poison (a 1 mana green card) is reading in the bar graph as a 5 mana gold card, reflected in both the quantities and highlighting when clicking the graph.

The original costs and keywords for Pick Your Poison are correct as that was the first printing of the card with this name. We cannot accommodate two cards of different effects under the same name so the first printing is what we are going with. Even if it's a playtest card it was still sold in official WotC product, and thus an official card.

It looks like this got mentioned about a month ago, so it's a known issue (and a unique and minor inconvenience), but are there any workarounds for Pick Your Poison being marked as a green/black card thanks to Pick Your Poison?

To be honest, that is a hard question to answer. Taking an additional 8 cards to do a full sb swap would probably be disastrous in some form or another. Either we cut way back on creatures which means we go late (and you're not set up for that) or we cut the interaction spells which means you're vulnerable to almost anything an opponent might sb. My gut says klothys will be your all-star either way. What I would expect to happen is your opponent will take the game long since their card quality will probably be higher so I might actually cut a couple 2-3 lands in favor of the 2nd klothys, 4th arbor elf, and the 3rd blood moon. That would probably be as far as I would go myself. It will be challenging either plan you choose. However if you are playing against a green deck, I might go as far as swapping birds for the utopia sprawls as a hedge against Pick Your Poison.

Pick Your Poison is giving a colour identity of {B} instead of {G} in decks. All other details showing as correct for card.
