When Sphinx Ambassador deals combat damage to a player, search that player's library for a card and that player names a card. If the card for which you searched is a creature and is not the named card, put the creature onto the battlefield under your control. That player shuffles their library.

How are we going to do this in MWS?

Opponent shows you his library (Show -> Library to opponent)

You choose a card from it and put it face down in play (Shift + drag and drop)

Your opponent names a card (Type in chat box)

You flip over the card (right click the card -> flip card over)

Actually, you can't draw from your opponent's library. In fact, I don't know were you got those ideas from, since you can't do a single thing other than viewing your opponent's cards when he shows you his deck.

The best thing you can do is tell your opponent in which position the card you want is, counting from the top. Then he goes to drag cards from the top of his library face-down to the field until you get the card you want. Don't forget that in this process you're seeing your opponent's library, so you can watch if your opponent makes no mistakes. Then, when you have your card, you tell him to guess what it is. Afterward, whether he guessed correctly or not, he shuffles all dragged cards back into his deck. Mr. Green

That seems like mistakes could be made.. How about..

opponent puts all of his creatures out in play (gives you sight of his library as well).

You put your hand to play face down

You put his creatures in your hand

You put a card face down from your hand to play (make sure it's away from the cards originally in your hand)

Opponent then chooses a card

You flip card face up, give him his creatures, etc

If you're having trouble with this, you could also tell a third person (like, a judge). Then you name what creature you want, and your opponent confirms with the judge.

you cant put his creatures into your hand and you cant draw from opponents library... sadly i think the easiest way might be for you to choose position from top, have him drag face down until that card, then he guesses, and then he flips it up..

ehh yea I guess that's the best way.. if the card is near the bottom you could always have him shuffle his library until it's towards the top too.

If its an M-L game, just join the chatroom, name the card, and have someone as witness, shouldn't be too hard...

Although gotta give it to WoTC, they are trying to undermine ML play by making complicated cards, so complicated MWS cant handle it lol
