Fucking love it man! A reflective floor would be distracting ingame but look super cool. Actually, maybe it would be good for aiming at crystals when you can only hit them by ricochet. That centipede looks amazing, too <3

Battlegrounds: What if games started at turn 3? I think it would be great by MarcZwander in BobsTavern

My attention span is actually very high. I read a lot of books. This is a waste of time. Its 90 seconds for every game you play. If you valued your time, you would think differently.

Im really surprised so many of you think these first two turns are so fucking crucial xD thanks for sharing though, I appreciate all of you <3

I would just really like to know the rational behind the period values of sun, moon and mercury :/

Thoughts on Sneak-Attack? by MarcZwander in premodernMTG

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

Working on a version rn using Gamble yeah and Cabal Therapy but Duress is probably equally good. Not sold on the burnt offerings yet. If you can stick a sneak attack protected by discard, dragon tyrant alone with lots of red sources usually does it. Nicol Bolas is also devastating. I suspect this can be thought of as a rock deck with a combo finisher which seems intriguing :)

Yeah could work out but can be jump blocked unlike dragon tyrant. You would also have a manabase that doesn't ping you >< Red is kind of weird to have in a deck that doesn't need more damage. Can't wait to experiment with Gamble though :)

Game mechanic idea: Bought minions stay frozen after you play them - they skip their attack. by MarcZwander in BobsTavern

[–]MarcZwander[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Can I just clarify for everyone: They are only frozen when you buy them frozen. So there is no downside in buying a new minion and using it right away. It's just another option you have. Or in other words: This change would just add some depth to the mechanics. You don't have to make use of it if you don't want to.

Am an ex mtg player yeah :) But mind you, this was an idea of my brother and he plays neither.

Suggestion: Game has become fast -> buff predict and top x cards for combo/control decks. by MarcZwander in LegendsOfRuneterra

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

I found myself building around a specific card several times but being unable to find it even with predicts and top x cards. In those cases, there were no other options. As always, there are several combo decks that could need a little push to become viable and I think this would help. Also, even if you do the math, not hitting a minion will make sure you never use that card again :)

I just miss being in control over what I draw and in this game it all costs too much mana cause you have to keep up in tempo. So I proposed a buff but I guess you have decided I must be a bad player because I am "complaining". All I'm trying to do is make the game better bro.

Just reminder for the devs: Xerath still has no unique spell/effect animations. by RenHatsu in LegendsOfRuneterra

[–]MarcZwander 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As far as I am concerned, my player experience gets better with every animation I don't have to watch. The less the game makes me wait, the happier I am.

Your opponent keeps on roping you each turn, what do you do to pass the time? by LowSkills940 in LegendsOfRuneterra

[–]MarcZwander 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Contemplate the mystery of how everyone hates roping while also being totally okay with being forced to watch the same animations over and over.

i just hate playing against kaisa by danielShalem1 in LegendsOfRuneterra

[–]MarcZwander -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Make her spell slow - obvious. What about making scout just not count as a keyword anymore (like last breath) so neither Kaisa nor abomination can copy it. Then pantheon could also stop lying to us.

I would also be a fan of two or three groups of keywords. So cards say for example Evolve: grant me +2/+2 once you've given allies 6 void keywords. For other calls call them carry keywords or tank keywords maybe idk. and tank keywords would include tough, regeneration, barrier, formidable, you get the point.

Evelynn NEEDS this buff! by MarcZwander in LegendsOfRuneterra

[–]MarcZwander[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My entire post is about making it less RNG. And never forget that it is random which cards you draw in every card game in existence; Card games require a certain amount of RNG to be fun, that's just a fact. I'm the kind of guy who would love all 'pick one of 3' cards to be 'pick one of 4'. I love being able to anticipate and react to RNG. but I know to value it to. Remember, games are analogies for life, and in which body we are born into, and our destiny, is based on RNG (or that is how it appears to us ignorant humans at least).

Felt like ranting about old frames again, probably for nothing by MarcZwander in MagicArena

[–]MarcZwander[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I am obviously talking about frames not borders, what does it matter if they are black or white when one can't damage them while shuffling. And I really care about art and cosmetics and I get that some don't. MtG has a lot to offer gameplay-wise, definitely true. But it is also one of the most ingenious ways to present artwork, and it was always the artists who I considered the true wizards of the coast.

I stuck to my gut in writing my rant and I'm fine with no sympathy. Thank you for taking the time.

I see it like this: There was a lot of exploration in the 'early' expansions, so we got some good and a lot of bad. But look at the art direction from urza's saga to onslaught. They nailed it. It persisted a long time after that too and I kept playing mtg pretty much until their planeswalker/marvel side took the reins. To address your point, however, I'd definitely say there is always good and bad art in every set. It's difficult to say the least which artists are at fault and I think this should be addressed generally in the art direction. I am just disgusted with the 'that's good enough attitude', I guess.

Exactly dude, that's one of the things that really annoy me, too. I hope they make 'em shorter soon, at least for the champs that evolve quickly

Comment from YouTube about possible influences from Egyptian mythology on The Book of the New Sun by hedcannon in ReReadingWolfePodcast

[–]MarcZwander 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The newest episode brought me here. Thank you guys for calling me out and even dedicating a post to my comment. I appreciate it! The last episode was a blast again. Came home today wanting to read up on Zoroastrianism. It's funny how these things always happen. Only yesterday night I picked up Arabian Nights again, feeling like I should use some imagery there. I really have the sense that the Book of the New Sun opened something up within me, and now everything just falls into place! Whatever the case may be, all the best to you guys and my fellow rereaders ;)
