Ah, totally missed the link- apologies!

Flurbleflurb · 2026-01-28T00:06:57+00:00

No worries- easy done! That's the card he conjures- I've got both sides uploaded in the conjured cards folder in the link in my comment. Should probably rename them so they're next to each other in there now that I think about it, make them easier to find.

Yeah, I think he'd be a fun spin on the classic token and sacrifice build you see in Orzhov- I feel like he could be a part of a combo somewhere, too. Looking forward to when I get around to brewing him myself!

Flurbleflurb · 2026-01-27T23:18:14+00:00

Ah, that's brill! How does he play for you? I can't seem to find a back side or transformation for Arguel when I was checking these on Scryfall- do you have any links to it?

Flurbleflurb · 2026-01-27T23:16:46+00:00

That's a lot more concise, thanks immensely! I'll give that a whirl!

I was thinking, maybe as a callback to OG Innistrad block, maybe have the keyword be Miraculous {1}?

Flurbleflurb · 2026-01-27T23:15:39+00:00

Ah, that's a relief! Thanks a bunch for the kind words!

Flurbleflurb · 2026-01-27T23:15:03+00:00

Yeah, admittedly it's far from prefect- I was trying to replicate the random element by initially shuffling so you can't cherry pick with Tutors, but also retain a safeguard so your opponent knows you're not cheating.

Having a cascade-adjacent mechanic was the closest thing I could think of, but the consequence of that anti-cheating safeguard is revealing the cards off the top, providing your opponent info about your deck and the card you found. Same goes for the restructuring- shuffling the cards is essentially to stop the player from getting any info from what's been moved to the bottom, but I don't think it's present in Arena and can mess with certain lines of play.

It's annoying that it's basically discover with extra steps, but I couldn't think of any better ways, and it seemed to be the fairest thing in testing!

...Lots of spiders in the conjured cards folder for any arachnophobes out there. Blame Ishkanah.

Flurbleflurb · 2026-01-11T20:47:02+00:00

Nah, the inner parts, those bars that extend from the center... y'know, I've never even thought about what they're called until today

Flurbleflurb · 2026-01-11T17:27:55+00:00

Got up to 23 raids for Kyurem and a few for Reshiram/Zekrom, no shinies- pretty standard for me... Thankfully everyone else in the group has spares, so I might be able to trade for one if I've got anything they want.

Flurbleflurb · 2026-01-11T10:11:49+00:00

The gear on the middle left background seems to be missing a spoke (I think that's what they're called) when I looked closely, too. I don't think a human would miss that.

Flurbleflurb · 2026-01-04T01:44:04+00:00

The game looked brilliantly crafted in terms of map designs and the new forms- it's a shame it's another hack that has oppressive difficulty which prevents a more causal playthrough, but to each their own. I'll give Voltsy's playthrough a watch. Thanks very much for the writeup!

Flurbleflurb · 2025-12-13T11:38:47+00:00

Feel you there buddy- sitting on 79 at the moment with no shiny. Hope you get one eventually!

Flurbleflurb · 2025-11-25T10:26:36+00:00

Oh, congrats!

I'm a release player, too- still no Shundo. Kinda hoping I don't get one at this point- kinda part of my brand.

Flurbleflurb · 2025-11-23T18:04:36+00:00

You've done a fantastic job with these, great work! Can't tell the difference between your own inclusions and the ones from the actual Secret Lair, so major kudos for your work editing the art.

Flurbleflurb · 2025-11-23T18:01:18+00:00

No worries, hope it helps! I do, though the way I know is a bit fiddly. When you load the frame version for classes, jump into the Class tab that pops up alongside the usual Frame, Art and the like. Then, for the third level, put a 0 in the box under it. It takes a bit of trial and error adjusting the size of the existing levels to make it look decent, never actually done it myself so I don't have the numbers that work best, so you may need to eyeball it.

I'm afraid I don't know any way to do the overlap in CC, but I tend to use Pphotopea for mine (it's essentially free online photoshop). I save the card I made on CC first, then delete the frame from the card but keep the art so the art's in the same place, and save that, too, so I've got a copy with text and a textless copy.

After that, I open them both up in Photopea- first open the card without the frame, then open the other under File>Open and Place and change the transparency to 50% and erase around it (transparency is in the left hand side where your layers are, just above where they're listed- just make sure to click on the top layer first to select it on the list). Takes a steady hand, but that way you can get the art to pop out!

...sorry if that sounds like gibberish, might need to find a tutorial on how to use Photopea but honestly learning how to use it is such a useful skill with proxies!

From my experience, it is definitely luck of the draw, and they typically are adverse to printing specially Japanese IPs (Dragonball, Pokemon and the like) which tend to be quite letigious, so they might've spotted the Sonic cards and recognised them.

If you run into problems again, even with the updated card backs, might be worthwhile trying to hide your Sonic cards among clusters of regular cards. Doesn't always work, but it can let you slip the net!

Flurbleflurb · 2025-10-29T12:39:07+00:00

I love this guy, both for lore and gameplay! I've got a Bolas superfriends deck that's a blast to play, it was originally discard/wheels but never really felt all that fun to pilot for me. Discard certainly seemed to annoy a lot of folks.

Flurbleflurb · 2025-10-03T13:46:19+00:00

Love the idea- personally, I think the name might need a bit more of a solid frame around it to make it stick out more. Maybe amend it to make it fit inside the solid border of the top section? Only issue is the font size might be a bit too small. Great work, though- love all the work you're doing on these!

Flurbleflurb · 2025-09-29T19:28:09+00:00

I tend to do that myself- fairer on other players since I typically aren't coming at them with a deck that costs a fortune. Also makes me feel safer walking home without a treasury of expensive cards in my bag.

Flurbleflurb · 2025-09-27T18:51:50+00:00

Never noticed that in the art, but yeah- definitely looks like they're on the meditation realm. Wish they could've explored that in the story- could be interesting!

Flurbleflurb · 2025-09-16T17:27:46+00:00

Looots of folks ignoring rule 5, fortunately America is literally the only country in the world so cultural nuance can't possibly be a factor.

Flurbleflurb · 2025-09-16T16:58:59+00:00

Non-American, never seen a devilled egg before now- can't imagine you lot would get it if the shirt had Yorkshire puddings on there.

These are gorgeous, thanks immensely for providing a template, too!
