The Everflowing Well // The Myriad Pools - functional bug - copied permanent (now a room) cannot unlock rooms
Give us the steps to reproduce the bug- Have [[The Everflowing Well // The Myriad Pools]] on the battlefield transformed.
- Play any enchantment room (I use [[Solitary Study // Endless Corridor]] in my example files). Use mana from [[The Myriad Pools]] to trigger its copy ability.
- Select the permanent you want to have become a copy of the Room you just played.
- Bug. The permanent you selected did not properly copy the Room you played. Functional: a copy of a room always starts unlocked and may be activated to unlock any of its rooms. Players should be able to click on the copied Room and unlock its rooms (note & working example: this works fine when copying rooms with Surgical Metamorph). Graphical: When copied, only the title line shows, and nothing else.
Note which platform you’re using (PC, Steam, Mac, Android, or iOS)
PC
- Enter the actual results you’re experiencing
Using [[The Myriad Pools]] ability to copy a room fails to properly copy the room. A copy of a room starts with both rooms unlocked and may be unlocked at any time. The copy made by [[The Myriad Pools]] does not have those attributes (in addition, the graphics of the permanent on the board are incorrect and not like how a copy of a room should appear).
- Enter the expected results of the feature
Play room with [[The Myriad Pools]], selected permanent becomes a functional copy of the room that can be interacted with. Just like how coping [[The Myriad Pools]] with [[Surgical Metamorph]] works.
- Add any relevant screenshots/videos
Attached.
- If you found a workaround, please add workaround steps.
Currently as of 25-04-06, there is no workaround.
There is however an example of how the room should interact when its copied ([[Surgical Metamorph]] -> [[The Myriad Pools]] -> can unlock rooms properly)
This post does an excellent job of showing the bug, however I wanted to post this to give more depth to the bug (also this is a functional bug & a visual bug; Pools and Endless Corridor have become two of my favorite cards because of all the wacky interactions that can be made with other cards. Having this bug fixed would allow for neat interactions with rooms like returning new copies of permanents on the board back to hand.): https://feedback.wizards.com/forums/918667-mtg-arena-bugs-product-suggestions/suggestions/48937715-everflowing-well-myriad-pools-optical-copying-gli
While this may be a single post I wanted to elevate it since this bug has been around since Oct 8, 2024.
Thank you!
