Weird breakup in the mana pie chart

TappedOut forum

Posted on April 28, 2015, 8:59 a.m. by piebandit

In the color distribution in this deck of mine and others Ur-Commnader, the mana base in the pie chart has each color broken down and displayed twice. there doesn't appear to be any rhyme or reason to it either, for example, selecting one slice of green will highlight Rupture Spire and the other will highlight Transguild Promenade which is a functional reprint. What's causing the difference?

One slice highlights your lands that comes into play tapped, and the other highlights the lands that come into play untapped. That's why there are arrows pointing to them labeled "Color (Slow)"

The problem seems to be that half of the tap lands aren't showing as "slow". There would be rhyme and reason to it except that Wedge Lands, Transguild Promenade, and hideaways seem to not be labeled as slow mana in the system.

hmm ... I'm not too sure how yeago signifies that something satisfies the criteria for being a "slow land".

Yeah, it seems like it's not registering all the lands properly, makes it a bit confusing. One thing I noticed is that all the Khans tri-lands are not slow, all the alara ones are.

It would have to be the description, as recent updates to the card submission form allowed markdown syntax to be implemented so we can produce these symbols in the description. It would explain why recent ones don't work, as we went through a lot of changes in what became the "regular" form for implementing symbols.

Not all of them are recent though. The Wedge lands are, but Mosswort Bridge is from Lorwyn. I'm not sure if there is a new card created for each printing or if maybe the description got updated when it was printed in C13, but it is an old card that is doing it. I'll make a deck with all the hideaways and see if they all show as not slow.

All of the hideaways don't show as slow.

@Gidgetimer That's probably because the "comes into play tapped" text is part of the reminder text rather than on the card normally.

Still, it may just be an oversight. But I'm not sure it is because of new formatting on submission form. Transguild Promenade was also before the change that allowed use of mana symbols, not sure about changes to the submission form since I'm not upgraded.
