Take out all the Soul Plagues from a player's deck.

Code:
void beforeStart()
{
   Player player=getHumanPlayer(0);
   
   ds=player.deckSize();
   for(int n=0; n<ds; n++)
   {
      if( player.getDeckCard(n).getName()=="Soul Plague")
      {
         player.removeDeckCard(n);
         n--;
      }
   }   
}

it is both exciting and terrifying that this is the API that has been exposed to players. anyway, if I am interpreting the code correctly, I think it will break (unless there is some embedded exception handling for accessing a card with an index greater than the deck size).

in general, try to avoid changing the loop iterator (n, in this case) outside the loop definition. e.g.,

Code:
void beforeStart()
{
  Player p = getHumanPlayer(0);
 
  for ( int n = p.deckSize()-1; n >= 0; n-- )
  {
    if ( p.getDeckCard(n).getName() == "Soul Plague" )
    {
      p.removeDeckCard(n);
    }
  }   
}

Yeah it wont break. It will just return an invalid card at the end which will return "" on getName.
But your version is probably cleaner.

Yeah I wish I had done this a looooong time ago.
