AI improvements

[UndeadSpider1990]

AI will cremate a creature even if it does nothing with the quantums this turn.

(Obviously if they think they're going to lose that creature, say to an Otyugh, or if it's a low defence creature, or against a Fire element... then there could be grounds for doing this, but generally speaking, nope!)

AI will sacrifice virus/retrovirus even if you have no monsters on the field, and they have nothing that benefits from death effects.

The Nightmare card:

WHen I'm using aether/air, and there are only aether and air creatures around, clever bot decides to Nightmare my Elite wyrm.

This is not a terrible choice because I don't have too many air pillars, but the bots gain of me not drawing a card for 1 turn seems rather less than his loss in giving me 8 new wyrms!

As it happens this nearly cost me the game, coz instead of keeping air quantums around for my (basic) wings card, I was playing wyrms (I won anyway, awww yeah)

Whimsical burrowing.

The AI will practically burrow any time they can, and only unburrow at some absurd point when they think it will finish you off (even if you were already going to be finished with their burrowed ATK, and even if the burrowed creature has no ATK, ie Devourers).

They would have to have some kind of risk assessy-type thing going on, like, burrow against Fire user, Burrow if Eagles Eye is floating about, but maybe not if they have 4+ def eg Elite Shrieker.

Stuff! :]

AI used protect artifact on unstable gas. Then it exploded the gas on the same turn.

ai isnt using sky blitz

AI will plate armor a shrieker then burrow it immediately, even if there are other things for it to heavy armor on the field

[rowcla]

ai is using butterfly effect on creatures which it has already been used on (it was a voodoo doll by the way)

[UndeadSpider1990]

AI tends not to use abilities (Like pulveriser) when it would use up all/most of their quantums of that element (even if they have nothing else to spend that element on, even if it would mean destroying the phase shield between AI and victory)

Priorities disregard Dive?

Morrius the l.5 just blasted a Phase Recluse (7/2) instead of my Elite Wyrm (5/3). I had an abundance of Air quantums. (There was perhaps a yet bigger threat in the Wyrm from Fractal. I don't actually use fractal, but Botty dun kno dat!)

Liquid Shadow is a double-edged sword.

Yet AI uses it when I have an Electrocutor hanging about.

I'm making quite a few comments to this. I wonder if these sort of comments are still even needed after 30 pages..?
