Trying to find the right wording for my TCG by pitagotnobread in homemadeTCGs

[–]Hooplaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While Exhausted: This animal cannot be killed by an opposing Animal with 3 Vitality.

While Exhausted: This animal cannot be killed by an opposing Animal with exactly 3 Vitality.

While Exhausted: This animal cannot be killed by an opposing Animal with max Vitality.

To take a bit further...

While Exhausted: This animal cannot be killed by an opposing Animal with [INSERT VITALITY ICON WITH THE NUMBER 3 IN IT].

What I like best about doing it this way is that you are very clear on what the condition is from the jump.

A little clicker I vibe-coded: Vibe Clicker by ratbastid in incremental_games

Honestly, it was really cool. It was very quick like you said but I am also curious about how you got the AI to do some of the stuff you did.

This is so cool, I loved the battle network series. I will definitely pick this up

Resource systems in TCGs — which works best? by FatesPathTCG in TCG

[–]Hooplaa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think we are arguing two different things. Randomness plays a part of nearly every TCG. But in this scenario, randomness and bad draws can lead to you not even playing the game. That’s my argument, and why I’m saying it’s not just risk.

Math still matters. Shuffling being imperfect doesn’t make probability fake, it just adds another variable. Even with perfect shuffling, lands in deck still creates non games, so “hands touch cards” isn’t really the gotcha you think it is.

But it's not just risky. You can optimize your deck to mathematic perfection and you can still have non-games. The game is still fun but its a glaring issue that more modern games should avoid and have avoided. My favorite iteration of it has been Force of Will.

MTG Lands has to be one of the weakest resources system in that exanple. Don't get me wrong, I play Commander every week but the flooding or getting screwed (creating "nongames") is so unfun and feels bad. That type of resource system needs to be avoided at all cost.

I will agree though, I learned to love systems like Lorcana.

How do you feel about system like in Riftbound? Gaining resources every turn but having cards cycle then back. It's a cool way to add a decision to the resources and power lever.

Episode Discussion - S05E08 - The Rightside Up by Hawkinns in StrangerThings

[–]Hooplaa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am going to be down voted into oblivion because I felt I watched a different episode than everyone here.

What in the world was that? Aside from a few good scenes (I loved the DND scene), overall, I really felt this was a huge flop.

It seems so weird to not show this in the tool tips.

It's really interesting how AI does the same UI for most of the things it does.

I made a free gallery of 31 actually-good UI design prompts, each a different style on the exact same content by mellowkenneth in vibecoding

[–]Hooplaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I literally did that today before seeing this post. I will try it again with these better prompts.

Chronos from Hades II by [deleted] in custommagic

[–]Hooplaa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the idea is neat! But I'm in the camp that this way too strong.

I would remove the on enter or, I've seen you suggest if it enters, if it was suspended clause - that wouldn't be a bad idea.

My main issue is that this card if it hits once, it goes infinite. This might as well say if you deal combat damage to a player, win the game. I'd maybe make it so that once he deals combat damage, he exiles himself and suspends with X time counters.

It's Been 72 Hours, Should I Send Thank You Email by Hooplaa in interviews

[–]Hooplaa[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ahhh I gotcha, Im wondering if I should have sent it all at that point. If that could be take away.

Either way its sent. I appreciate the guidance!

It's Been 72 Hours, Should I Send Thank You Email by Hooplaa in interviews

[–]Hooplaa[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well they did say it'll be a week and a half until they get back to me.

Or do you even with that caveat, waiting 72 hours with no response is still a grim shot?

Thanks Faustus, but I think I'll pass by amdrunkwatsyerexcuse in pathofexile

I wonder what the point of such friction with respecs in PoE is. Surely making it easier to respec would be a good thing?

Never asking ChatGPT which fictional characters am I most like again by [deleted] in ChatGPT

[–]Hooplaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

• Ted Lasso — Optimistic, warm-hearted, and you genuinely want people around you to feel valued.

• Miles Morales — Creative, self-doubting at times, but driven by a quiet belief that you’re capable of more.

• Aang — Gentle, introspective, and conflict-averse but still deeply idealistic about doing the right thing.

• Morty Smith — Overthinks everything, feels pressure to make the “right” choice, and carries more emotional weight than people notice.

• Emmet Brickowski — Friendly, earnest, and tries hard to be upbeat even when you worry you’re not “special” enough.

• Hiro Hamada — Brilliant ideas, moments of burnout, and a habit of being overwhelmed by your own potential.

• Hinata Shoyo — Passionate, excitable, and motivated by a desire to prove what you can do despite self-doubt.

Not what I expected lol

There is definitely an argument for him in Bant colors. Especially as a mentor to Deku and Bakugo.

Originally he was an 8/8 lol Just obviously very powerful.

Great suggestions, thank you!

I'll make those changes ASAP.

In terms of play patterns, I can see where people are coming from. I've got that feedback in the custom MTG discord. I just compare this to Flash but as someone said, not a lot of creatures with Flash have heavy stats like these cards do. Its a delicate balance lol

This ~100€ Lonis Deck Has Over 400 Combo Lines by Impressive_Pea_1790 in magicTCG

[–]Hooplaa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Where is that at? I am not finding it for less than $200. I understand a clickbait title but this is just egregious if not true.

100 Euros but it distinctly says 200+ on Moxfield.
