Yea, they brought back a lot of classics, and re-designed some old favorites. Buffed healing salve, Jaya planeswalker, new Darigaaz, motherfucking KARN, etc.. I really like the Jaya, as she was a planeswalker card before planeswalker cards existed, makes sense she'd get an actual PW card. I...

OH SHIT!

I like the idea of the Sagas. It's kinda like a planeswalker/level up enchantment. It does bug me that all of them end at exactly 3. They do this a lot with new mechanics, to preserve design space one would assume, but then half the time they don't even revisit the mechanic. It just feels like...

My google search suggested the same thing, that she mentioned it was made from same stuff as Captain America's shield.. but I don't remember that being said in the episode?

Yea, most of the songs were just 'meh'. Kady's dance/outfit was fine, but the song itself was boring imo. The last one was fucking amazing though. Also, if that was everyone's actual voice, HOLY SHIT Kady and Elliot are way better then everyone else. I'm glad they didn't over do it on the...

super helpful... I think he was asking if its a comic book character, but I don't recognize that as any character and a quick google search didn't turn up anything.

I briefly saw a 'full control enabled something something' message in the bottom right corner when i got into one game, but it disappeared before i could read it all and haven't seen it since. I'll try shift+ctrl.

Yea, I haven't had that issue at all. I've only had a problem putting myself into full control mode and not knowing how i did it or how to get back out.

I was gonna say 'fuck you, ive been waiting forever' but then i got an email from them too! Ayyyy!

I missed the last episode, forgot to set DVR to record it, but caught this one. Based on everyone's reactions, and my dwindling interesting, not gonna even bother downloading the previous one to catch up. The trash compactor scene was the best thing in a year on this show, ffs. I'm getting...

Yea, I could see it being for something along those lines. It's also why she started out hating Elliot/Margo/humans, but then when she saw Margo be nice to the boat when the other boat wanted to rape it, the queen said something about she was impressed by Margo's character. The end game will be...

Yea, I was wondering why harriet had such a hard on for the Library, figured there was some kind of history but not THAT. Previews for next week shows it's gonna be a musical episode, likely due to an enchantment on the key causing spontaneous song. I'm fine with this for some reason. Maybe...

The rules I outlined above is pretty simple and intuitive if you had the cards in front of you. Creating a game board with all the states would add more complexity to it. I'm not understanding what part you can't express in cards, though your initial post (the quoted one) made it sound more...

BTW: I'm very interested in helping out with this in some way, maybe a developer? I've played various ccgs for over 20 years, mainly magic, and have always enjoyed coming up with card designs for fun. If I can help develop the different cards, as well as help balance them, once you've decided on...

I don't know if he's doing a hybrid board/card game, but if so then i really like those ideas. Having a board of the US and taking over states. That might be too much work to make each state have different attributes, and making a game board, and kind of punishes the other factions that aren't...

I'd also break it down into phases. Start of turn, generate resources, then there is an exchange phase where you can swap 2 of one for 1 of another resource. You make the cards cost certain resources, so you have to plan out which one(s) you plan to use ahead of time. Then, there is a phase...

1d6 adds waaay too much variance. If you were gonna go that kind of route, i'd say like 2d6, pick best one. Or, choose to take a flat 3 after rolling (if both are 1 or 2). The difference between only getting 1 or getting 6 of a resource, especially if it's important to the core game, is too...

If you haven't watched today's games, don't read

sorry to be annoying, but just my weekly reminder I'm still looking for an arena beta key if anyone ends up with an extra. Alternatively, if you no longer want to play your account (or rarely play it and wanna share time), or otherwise need an incentive to part with the key, I'm willing to pay a...

Sure man. It's a little hard to explain, but when I started playing 2-3 months ago, in almost every game it felt like skill mattered more then anything. If I lost, I could often point to a mistake I made that caused it, or some decision I made that let my opponent outplay me. I thought I had...

Yea, I was still holding out hope that they were just taking time to work out the kinks.. but after this week's performance i finally threw in the towel on them being a top team by end of split. Which, probably means they go undefeated from here on out.. but whatever. It's impossible for us...

theoretically, you could just copy/paste the folder to move it, but it may not work right (or at all) until you move it back. Depends how its setup, maybe someone more knowledgeable can confirm. Worst case scenario, you can keep the .exe on the storage drive and uninstall it from ssd. You'll...

What aspects of tavern brawl do you feel they are combining with it? It's just a solo draft mode, with 4 choices instead of 3. That's pretty much the same as all the digital ccgs. Other then getting a pod of people together and passing actual packs, there's not really a good way to implement a...

Wish they had shown her changing clothes a bit more, though. -_- I think the dragon was drawn to the key, maybe? It seemed to be waiting for quentin to jump. I dont know if it followed poppy, the key, or both. For all we know, that is the dragon she stole it from and it let her take it just to...

Yea, i was a little pissed that they made relative time into some rare thing Poe figured out how to do. As if no one else ever did it. I didnt mind that they changed synths into shapechangers instead cheap of, ghetto sleeves. Carnage's look is how synths are supposed to all look. Vaguely human...

In the book, doing relative time in VR is somewhat easy to do, though you need very powerful/expense systems to do higher speeds like 20x. Getting 2-5x speed in VR is relatively common place, and is indeed used for training of people as well as other things (the torture sequence, for example...

Ok, I think you are not realizing Bancroft's sense of honor and moral code. I can understand why, the show kept it a bit subtle, but he was a man of extreme honor (at least he thought so). There was a moral line he would never cross, under any circumstances, but anything on the other side of it...

Well, if I don't get one, and anyone doesn't want to use theirs. PM me.

btw: anyone watch LCS this week? Echo Fox has turned out to be quite good, which I'm very happy about. I was so rooting for that roster to work out, Rick Fox is the best owner. Dardoch is really getting a chance to shine on that team. C9 looks great. Licorice has turned out to be a beast, which...

When I'd queue as top/jung or top/mid, id get auto filled every 6-8 games, and then you are protected for a few. Depends on how in demand your main role is. If you are going mid/x, you will get auto filled a lot more. Also, if you don't mind support every so often, then go preferred role/fill...

I remember Miriam even saying 'so what? A criminal makes up a story' and Takeshi had some other response, i think it was about Mary Lou testifying now that they are over ruling the religious coding. So, it's another, independent, testimony that will match the story. In any case, it was enough to...

One of the few entities with any power/authority over Bancroft was the U.N./Protectorate. The fact that he swayed the decision on the one bill, 632? I think it was called, and there was proof of this.. is what got them involved. The public perception had changed, so they were the ones pulling...

Yea, the last episode was great. The alt time line was great, even if I figured they'd un-write it somehow by the end of it. No way they kill off two major characters in a side plot, lol.

He means, you dont have a round of interviews and choose some specific candidate out of a pool. Most of the time its them coming to the studio to pitch it, if they pick it up that person becomes the show runner. There is rarely some other person they can choose. Its either pick up the project...

When I first heard this was gonna be on TV, I immediately thought "Oh, this is one of the few shows, like doctor who, where they can change the lead actor practically at will and it actually works fine". So, I fully expect the lead to be gone for next season, if it's renewed. Unfortunately, if...

You are right, but it's also that their mana system works differently. Once you have 1 of a certain 'influence', all your mana can be used for that. Or, more accurately it's a threshold system. To translate magic cards, if you had one mountain and 5 forests in play, you could cast 6 red 1 drops...

I argued for this exact thing many times in multiple threads on the beta boards. It would have achieved their desired effect of more variance in how games play out, without increasing the chance of screw/flood so much. The aggravating thing is, we never got any kind of response or...

I'll alpha test it for you.

So, imagine a 10 card deck with 5 mana/5 non-mana. You draw a mana, the chance to draw another mana is now 4/9 (4 mana cards out of 9 total). Or, ~44%. If you draw another mana, the chance to draw the 3rd goes down to 3/8, or 37.5%. It naturally balances itself out more and more to reduce the...

i briefly tried hex before, and while it seems ok, if I wanted a non free to play ccg, i'd just play magic/mtgo again. Idk, maybe i didnt give it enough time, but my understanding is the ftp model is pretty slow in that game? While I'm not broke these days, I don't want to get sucked into a...
