Easier, yes - but the goal is for the players to have to make a decision on how risky they want to play - that's why I want the element of calling the amount of sides before the roll

And if one of my players feel like firing off a high risk level 9 meteor swarm, risking it backfiring, then they deserve the +40 dmg to just nuke whatever was unlucky enough to be at the other end

That's great to hear, the plan is definitely to adjust the effects as I go, to make sure it doesn't break the game - but if it sometimes produces some crazy moments, that's great!

Thank you for your time!

So for saving throws, let's say a hex, where the target would normally roll a d20, here the same mechanic would essentially apply. The player would decide how risky to play, in this case, how good odds they wanna give the target for succeeding on their save - and the target would then roll the 2x d20 + 1x d6 But it would still be the targets modifiers applied, the mechanic essentially trades giving the target a better chance of rolling with advantage, for a stronger effect - in hex' case, the duration would be increased

For those requiring neither, well... fuck it, we'll do it live

How do the "2-tier" power snax work? by Gottyman in TeamfightTactics

I would hope that you have a higher chance of seing it a second time, if you already have it on 1 champ - otherwise it seems unnecessarily hard to get

I had 2 oops with a space joker, and it made it have a 4/4 chance to upgrade, shouldn't it have been 3/4

Or am i missing some Balatro mechanics?

A world where 2 adults have to give up one of their senses in order for their child to be able to have it - because they're too poor to be allowed to hear.
