AI Improvements

[Belligerence]

Quite possibly not immediately clear. I was testing a new Arena deck (which is extremely fun to play against ) when I noticed something: I was using SPlat, I had SoSac up, so quite naturally I was hoping the AI wouldn't draw a Purify. It did. It also didn't hesitate to play it. On the Golden Nymph which it had Raged earlier. What? At the time, playing it on me would have given it a definitive win. D:

This screenshot is a few turns after I noticed it, because for some reason my screenshot program didn't record it the first time I tried to take the picture. So imagine me with about 20 HP and SoSac up, and a few less Nymphs on the field.

I've actually noticed this happen to me many times. AI will Purify a creature that can be healed by it, BEFORE using Purify on themselves to remove poison, or their opponent to remove Sacrifice Status. Hopefully this doesn't get patched though, can't tell you how many games I've won where a deck only drew 1 Purify and used it on a creature

I've encountered some more fail AI logic. I'm sure it's well-known but I wasn't able to find it after doing a very brief search.

I see that. It doesn't consider buff-multiplying abilities.

not exactly the best use of armor.

I think there's something inherently wrong with Hermes stacking two heavy armors onto a brimstone eater.

Yeah. He needs a bit more patience.

EP prefers playing fractal'd phoenixes instead of reviving phoenixes.

makes sense for future use of fractal.  unfotunately, he frequently prefers fractaling ash over phoenix.

Not sure if this has been mentioned, but....casting Gravity Pull (the spell) on an Armagio...

Eternal Phoenix, y u fractal ash instead of phoenix?

[russianspy1234]

A.I. played SoF, played adrenaline on it, then played psion in one turn.

Later (same game) I had a hope shield out and a bunch of RoLs, AI had a psion with mitosis and one without and played adrenaline on the one with mitosis (and thus no psion) but even if there was no shield, it makes more sense to play it on the non mito one so that the "value" is spread out on multiple creatures.

AI plays pandy and kills my creature then plays boneyard.

AI casts antimatter on my GotP then immediately casts mitosis on it.
