Chimera transmuted into malignant cell :P

[lordbubyan]

Hello guys, i had 9 Silurian Dragon on the field, 2 of them poisoned with a Death Nymph and 1 of them frozen, after summon a chimera (i expected kill Jezebel with it) happened this:



My chimera dissapeared when i summoned it and appeared a malignant cell with momentum

I could not reproduce it with an aflaed creature in other spot than the first.
But when I tested in spot 1 the Chimera died instantly (and triggered a dead effect).

Had the same thing, what is also remarkable is the second afla-ed Dragon on my field. The Malignant cell created from infestation from the momentum-ed Malignant Cell instantly died and turned into a Malignant cell again just like the Chimera. It appears infection still makes creatures in that slot die after the creature disappears due to Chimera.

Spoiler for Hidden:

Before:

After:

Chimera dies as soon as it's spawned and Momentumed Malignant Cell takes its place.

So in the BL game of me vs Cheesy, it went like this:

I have a death nymph on slot 2, end turn with 7|2, 2 afla counter.
Cheesy RT it using Eternity.
(after a few turns)
I played the death nymph on slot 1.
(after a few turns)
I played a 2nd death nymph on slot 2, end turn and it instantly becomes a cell.

It was all of a sudden and so unexpected that no screenshot has taken.

Looks like the alfa'd status retained and applied to the newly-played victim?

Looks like the same bug as this one: http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,39088.0.html
Apparently cause of removal other than Death combined with Afla all have problems? o.o (SoFo maybe, too)

[AP579]

So, Chimera, RT, and SoFo all cause this with afla, because the slot still registers afla, and it didn't actually die, so the next creature in the slot gets it?

Sounds like Afla is real buggy in general, this also happens to mutants, but some people say that it is logical in that fashion.

This sort of just happened to me.  I was running a Pharoh  hand and one of my Scarabs was Alfa'd.  I used that Scarab to Devoured a Physalia which racked its poison counter up enough to kill it on the next turn.  I RT'd it and played it on the next turn.  It was fine until, on that turn, I Devoured another enemy creature at which point my Scarab instantly turned in to a Malignant Cell.

A similar thing happened to me today: my Lava destroyer got Aftatoxin'ed, i used a stolen Eternity's effect on it and played it again to remove the poison; at the end of the turn, it became a malignant cell.
