Accordion Block Issues
TappedOut forum
Posted on Dec. 12, 2017, 7:16 p.m. by LordBlackblade
So as the title says, I've been having issues with my accordion blocks on my decks lately. Below is an example of the coding, and you can see the end result at the deck's page: Ezuri's Unending Progress
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I would like all of my decks to end up looking nice and uniform. My other deck Karlov's Tithes is exactly how I want things to end up. Thanks in advance!
My third EDH deck, and my first non-Black EDH. I chose Ezuri, Claw of Progress because I have always liked the idea of a +1/+1 counter-based deck. Blue/Green (Simic) is an ideal color combination for such a deck, as mechanics like Evolve naturally place counters on your creatures. Coupled with the Proliferate mechanic from New Phyrexia, and you have a deck that easily turns one and two drop creatures into powerhouses.
Coiling Oracle - Mana acceleration or card draw depending on the card revealed.
Cold-Eyed Selkie - Card draw on damage. With all the counter generation in this deck, this card has potential.
Fathom Mage - Draw a card whenever she gets a counter, which in this deck should happen a lot.
Lifecrafter's Bestiary - Pay an additional whenever you cast a creature spell to draw a card.

Prime Speaker Zegana - With all the counter generation in this deck, she should draw you at least seven cards if not more.
Rashmi, Eternities Crafter - If the cast doesn't trigger from her ability, you can put the card in your hand.
Steady Progress - Proliferate and draw a card. Instant speed.
Tezzeret's Gambit - Draw two cards and proliferate.

Champion of Lambholt - Gets a +1/+1 counter whenever a creature enters the battlefield under your control.
Chasm Skulker - Gets a +1/+1 counter whenever you draw a card.

Ezuri, Claw of Progress - Places +1/+1 counters on a creature before each of your combat steps.

Fertilid - Enters the battlefield with two +1/+1 counters on it.
Gyre Sage - See Fathom Mage
Hangarback Walker - Enters the battlefield with X +1/+1 counters on it. Pay and tap it to put a +1/+1 counter on it.
Hardened Scales - Whenever a creature you control would get a +1/+1 counter it gets an additional counter as well.
Hooded Hydra - Pay X mana to have it enter the battlefield with X +1/+1 counters on it.
Kalonian Hydra - Enters with four +1/+1 counters; however, doubles the number of +1/+1 counters on all creatures you control when it attacks.

Walking Ballista - Enters the battlefield with X +1/+1 counters on it. Pay to put an additional +1/+1 counter on it.
Counterspell - As basic as counterspells get.
Disallow - Counters any spell, activated ability, or triggered ability. Potentially a lifesaver.
Fuel for the Cause - Expensive as counterspells go, but does proliferate as well.
Glen Elendra Archmage - Counters noncreature spells. Easily repeatable with the amount of +1/+1 counters the deck generates.
Mystic Snake - A counterspell and a creature that can trigger Ezuri, Claw of Progress.
Plasm Capture -A little expensive for a counterspell, but gives you mana during your next precombat mainphase.

Eternal Witness - A tool for getting back cards that have been used/milled.
Lightning Greaves - Almost exclusively used to protect Ezuri, Claw of Progress from spot removal.
Herald of Secret Streams - Doesn't generate +1/+1 counters, but makes all creatures you control with counters unblockable.
Invisible Stalker - Unblockable 1/1 with Hexproof. Becomes huge when coupled with Ezuri, Claw of Progress.
Panharmonicon - Creates more triggers for Ezuri, Claw of Progress. Synergizes well with enters the battlefield effects as well.

The true essence of the Simic Combine and the bread and butter of this deck. +1/+1 counters beef up creatures and can be used to trigger a variety of abilities.

===panel:Counterspells
There is no more powerful, nor satisfying effect, than a well-timed counterspell. Being able to stop an opponent's big play or infinite combo is an amazing ability.

[[Disallow]] - Counters any spell, activated ability, or triggered ability. Potentially a lifesaver.

===endpanel
===panel:Mana Sources
Mana is required to play spells. This is one of the most basic concepts of magic. More mana allows more spells to be cast. More spells allow for more plays to tilt the game in your favor. Therfore, getting mana as rapidly as possible increases one's chance of victory.

[[Coiling Oracle]] - You either draw a card, or get an additional land onto the battlefield.
[[Cultivate]] - Search for two basic lands, put one into play, and the other into your hand.
[[Devoted Druid]] - Basic mana dork with a twist. Reusable due to +1/+1 and -1/-1 counters negating one another.

[[Sol Ring]] - [[symbol:1]] to get [[symbol:2]]. Few cards are as powerful.

Some cards in a deck don't really fit into the deck's broad categories. This is sort of a catch-all for useful, but perhaps niche effects or supplemental cards.
[[As Foretold]] - Gives you a free spell every turn. Couples well with all of the Proliferate effects in the deck.
[[Blighted Agent]] - Unblockable 1/1 with Infect. Possible win-con coupled with [[Ezuri, Claw of Progress]].

===endpanel
===panel:Token Generation
A minor sub-theme within the deck. Several cards generate tokens upon death. Mainly for use as board wipe recovery. If several small tokens enter the battlefield, can give several triggers for [[Ezuri, Claw of Progress]].
[[Avenger of Zendikar]] - Creates 0/1 Plant toekns equal to the number of lands you control when it enters the battlefield.
[[Blade of Selves]] - Generates multiple temporary tokens on attack of whatever it is equipped to.

Huh. I put your code in a test deck and it worked just fine.
Inspecting the source code of your deck, it just shows what you see anyway: the panel's < div > tag gets closed prematurely. Why it works in comments and in my deck description, no idea.
Suggestions:
- Paste the code into your description and save.
- Create a new deck and see if the description works, then copy/paste your boards.
- If nothing works: Instead of using an empty line to denote a paragraph, use HTML.

Ah, your posts made me realize where the error was. I needed to put a line between the beginning of panel code and the start of my description for a given panel. Once I did that it worked like a charm! Many thanks!

Now see it's bizarre to me that it looks fine here, but it ends up not working on the deck page.
