Combat Celebrant interaction

[ingmargoudt]

"Combat Celebrant is apparently bugged. I had two of them, swung both, exerted one to untap the rest and get another combat. Second combat, swing with the other celebrant, exert it to untap the rest and get another combat. Third combat, swing everything and I get to exert the one which had already been exerted this turn."

Combat Celebrant might need an "IsExertedThisTurnWatcher" for this?

[ingmargoudt]

ah the watcher is internal to the ExertAbility, makes sense.

add tests

Multiple users confirming this still is an issue. One mentioned possible interaction with Always Watching. Add unit tests.

[drmDev]

Actually cannot unit test this specific scenario due to UT Framework issues with cards having the same name (see #3038) - unable to differentiate between Combat Celebrant #1 and Combat Celebrant #2 .Will need to ask users for game logs and go from there.

Was able to attack again with exerted Celebrant if Always Watching is on battlefield. Also able to reproduce by unit test. Was not able to have infinite combat phases with just one Celebrant or exert more than once per turn.

edit: see later comment - misread card. Did not duplicate being able to exert more than once per turn.

With 2 Celebrants + Always Watching you get two additional combat phases by attacking with one Celebrant and Exerting then attacking with the other and exerting it. However unable to exert either of them more than once per turn

edit: see later comment - misread card. Did not duplicate being able to exert more than once per turn.

Update: I need to RTFC and rules better. Celebrant is allowed to attack again if he is exerted. Just not allowed to be exerted again on the same turn to grant additional combat phases. Not able to duplicate the issue then, just misunderstood the interactions here.

[drmDev]

I'm going to guess then the issue was the users misread the first line as Celebrant not being able to attack again while exerted. Will re-open if someone can produce a log demonstrating infinite turns with it exerting more than once a turn
