    General Probability of the Magic MMO failing

    My impression, back when I watched them, was that they started making MTG content pretty genuinely, because that's what they were into. One of my cube articles was written in response to a Graham tweet, and we had a small, pleasant interaction on Twitter. Mostly I really liked when they...

    My Board Game Prototype [working title]

    Yeah, I agree there needs to be defined icons for the power and range, and don't mind the cost moving to the header. Going to try to play with it a bit so that the text box isn't so filled with stat icons.

    I haven't followed LRR in years. Is this true or just some verbal hyperbole?

    In WoW TCG you draw one card, yes. Versus system has you drawing two cards a turn.

    My Board Game Prototype [working title]

    Ah, sorry, I didn't explain that well. Income is just like, the number of mana you have available to you each turn. So you start the game with 0, then on turn 1 you would get 1 coin, turn 2 you get 2 coins, etc. (assuming you pay the blood bank or card costs each turn). So maybe you would get...

    My Board Game Prototype [working title]

    Grid Drafting was one of my most successful cube designs, and I've always had the idea that you could build a game from the ground up around it. But what if instead of drafting then playing, you draft while you play. I've run several iterations of prototypes for this game, and it's still very...

    In WoW TCG you get a 7-card starting hand (like Magic), and once per turn you can play one of them face down as a "resource" (that game's equivalent of lands). So it's guaranteed, in a way, but you still have to decide which card to put down / how high you want your curve to go. Having played...

    Yeah, this is what I do, I have a black and white template for cards that I printed a couple hundred copies of, then just make things with a pen. I don't actually know graphic design stuff, so not sure what I'll do once things start to get to the polishing stage.

    Hearthstone

    Sequencing is pretty fun with the deck. I do think BR Legacy Sacgro has more interesting decisions, but I don't get golden epics for playing it.

    Right now I have so much time between playtests, because each playtest reveals huge glaring problems. I'm on like, the 4th iteration of my resource system and every time I have to make / rework a ton of cards that are compatible with the new system.

    Hearthstone

    I didn't really play much HS this month, but I did still feel obliged to get to Rank 5 in Wild. Playing against Quest Rogue so much really soured me on Standard, so I became the scourge of Wild: Pirate Warrior. I actually enjoy piloting it, far more than something like Aggro Druid. Been...

    Any of you play the WoW TCG? Did you like the mana system?

    Flayer all day. Even when I ran, like, the most Zombie heavy cube ever, I still cut Lotleth Troll. Flayer is both more likely to make your decks, and more interesting in them.

    It's not exactly cube related, but I did my second playtest of a board/card game prototype I've been working on last night. Still very rough, but it was already infinitely more fun than the first playtest, which only went a few turns before I scratched my head and had enough feedback to know to...
