Supernerd gave the second best ruling, so its okay.

[NUKE9.13]

Per the rules:

6) If a card has zero hearts when you play it, it will be destroyed after it does its effect.

[notquitethere]

Supernerd, if the anglerfish dragon deals damage to a creature with only two hearts, will the owner gain 2 hearts or 4?

[NUKE9.13]

Spoiler: Idea (click to show/hide)

*Card Name: Demon Waifu
*Card Picture: [An attractive female Oni or similar]
*Background Color: Orange
Attack: 3
Hearts: 5
Stars: 1
Card Effect: Demons and Waifus you control have +1 Attack.
  While this card is in play you lose 1 heart at the start of each turn.
Flavor Text: Excuse me, I'm actually a yokai, not a demon. You see, in Japanese mythology...[this text should run off the side of the card]
Metadata: Buffs Demons and Waifus. Buffs itself (but only once).
Reference:

[notquitethere]

I like it. How about this for taking the Airbase. It picks up on FB's equipment idea.

Spoiler: Dragon Bi-Plane idea (click to show/hide)

*Card Name: Dragon Rapide
*Card Picture: A bi-plane
*Background Color: White
Attack: 3
Hearts: 4
Stars: 2
Card Effect: Must be piloted by another card in order to attack. When you play a card with hearts, you can assign it to pilot Dragon Rapide. A card cannot attack or be targeted by another card while piloting. Assigning a second pilot puts the first pilot back into normal play. Add the pilot's attack when you attack with Dragon Rapide. Cannot be blocked by non-flying cards.
Flavor Text:
Metadata:

Stick a PGW in there and win two turns later. Also in the airbase it's immune to their boardwipe cards. I made it a dragon-themed plane as it's always nice to double up for extra region support. Gave it the flying effect the broomstick witch has, as airplanes should be able to fly.

If this format gets run again, I would suggest allowing players to create keywords which go into a central glossary. If keywords were a thing, this card could just say: Vehicle. Flying.

[Supernerd]

It would be four.

Here's another idea which could increase our dominance in every region and weaken the opponent's.

Spoiler: Prism (click to show/hide)

*Card Name: Prismatic Shroud
*Card Picture: A prism
*Background Color: White
Attack: 0
Hearts: 0
Stars: 0
Card Effect: At the start of your turn, reveal this card in your hand. This does not count as playing. If you do, name a colour. All cards in play, and all cards that will be played will be considered that background colour only, until the start of your next turn.
Flavor Text: The light reflected changes all manner of things.
Metadata: Card to alter backgrounds for different region effects. If you won't allow cards which have effects from being revealed in a hand, consider making it free to play instead (as changing colours and then not being able to play another card would usually be worthless).

On its own it does literally nothing, and indeed no other cards currently make reference to background colours... but it's a force multiplier in every region. Making it a reveal-only effect means we keep tempo and can keep doing it, but at the expense of using up a hand slot (and the fact multiple draws of this are worthless).

It would be four.

Nice!

[Failbird105]

Very basic concept to think on for the future:


Making just a fuckhuge megacost boss card.

[notquitethere]

Maybe stats something like:

Attack: 21
Hearts: 21
Stars: 13
Card Effect: This card can only leave play if it has 0 hearts. At the start of your turn, all other cards take 1 damage and this card gains hearts equal to the damage dealt.

So, immune to any removal other than creatures, and has a life-drain aura. Definitely final-boss tier. Any super expensive card would have to be made immune to cheap trick removal.

Any other ideas?

I'm playing a game on Discord with DGR, and he just showed off this card:

Which is kind of a scary card, honestly.

E: and also this:

Which seems like it is intended to be a finisher.

[notquitethere]

Finally a use for Ghost Eel's card effect! That's very generous of them to design into a space we'd already accidentally defended.

Hypersummon though... a great card that is absolutely useless in the Mire. This might be the card Tric thought he'd win with.

Not necessarily. It could even work better- it'd just be random.

- Any card effect that allows you to search your deck for a card will instead select a random card for its effect.

Have we ever had a ruling on whether Nightly Sweep sweeper tokens can attack the turn they come into play?

The wording, "Create a sweeper token in play" leaves it a little ambiguous.

[Supernerd]

They cannot attack the turn they come into play. There you go!

[notquitethere]

Damn. I shouldn't have asked. Because literally just saw that the only time they were ever played, it turns out they got away with attacking the turn they were played.

This is almost certainly the correct call though. And you can still attack with cards then convert them in the same turn, so there's that.


If this wasn't going well enough, I have an extra little surprise in my hand for next turn. Something good to spend those stars on...
