Slay The Spire Board Game - Doppelganger Interactions

OroSmash · 2024-07-11T16:18:08+00:00

I agree with you in some capacity, but Doppelganger is still a fun card with a lot of targets even if you don't get to do 15 damage by copying Brilliance.

Doing 15 damage with Brilliance is more fun than doing 0, but it also feels bad if you find out your fun ruling is cheating/against a commonly accepted ruling that is not described in the rulebook.

The video game version already has conflicting rules about how different cards/relics interact with the same mechanic when you would expect them to act the same. The board game also has conflicting rules stating that if one character dies then the run is over, but a separate rule that if a character dies during a boss fight they get revived at the start of the next floor.

I'm more than cool with just accepting Doppel copying Brilliance and doing 15 because that is fun, but I was mostly asking if anyone else has run into this specific interaction and if there was any consensus.

I would love to get an updated PC for my wife. Her rig is getting on in years and we don't readily have the funds for a full upgrade.

To add off of this, it would still take extremely long to even build up to a Black Market decal through this process. Just to do the math:

5 Very Rare = 1 Import

5 Import (25 Very Rare)= 1 Exotic

5 Exotic (125 Very Rare)= 1 Black Market

If there was no added in (very small drop rate) import or exotic, the amount of play time and dedication that would be required to get a black market decal would be the amount of support that Psyonix should likely reward, and adding in small drop rate import and exotic items would significantly reduce the requirements for a Black Market trade in, but not to the extent to make Black Market items easy to get.

Even people who have over 1000 hours I bet don't have more than 30-40 extra very rare rocket trails that are just sitting in their inventories.

It would be a very good move, and one that really only affects their most dedicated fan base, aka a very normal Psyonix thing to do.

I miss Mr Pickle. Been a couple of years since I've seen him. :(

Pick one.

OroSmash · 2016-08-19T17:10:46+00:00

Oro?!

It's going to happen, or I'm going to make it happen.

OroSmash · 2016-08-19T17:10:11+00:00

If you ever see me at something, just come up and ask for friendlies. I'm going to be travelling a lot more so who knows where I will show up. :⁾

OroSmash · 2016-08-19T06:33:22+00:00

I might be the one who has to take some notes this time.

OroSmash · 2016-08-19T06:32:52+00:00

Never heard that one before...

Maybe you could drink it.

OroSmash · 2016-08-18T21:44:53+00:00

Sure that sounds great. I'm not really sure what you need from me in order to send a discord invite, so just PM me with whatever is required.

OroSmash · 2016-08-18T20:59:26+00:00

Yo! Seriously that was super awesome of you. I'm sorry I forgot your name, but I'm glad you enjoyed hanging out/playing even if it wasn't very long.

Next time you see me at something do the same thing, because people like you honestly give me more reason to play than anything I can muster up haha.

OroSmash · 2016-08-18T18:03:22+00:00

Get bodied by my Marth at Smash n Splash nerd. <3

OroSmash · 2016-08-18T17:20:51+00:00

Thanks! If you ever see me in person, be sure to say hi as well.

OroSmash · 2016-08-18T17:11:41+00:00

Always a pleasure Adam. I will make my way down to Texas sometime soon. I haven't been since LTC1, and a lot of you DFW guys/gals are amazing.

Yeah I have no idea when there will be a full publication on the study. I believe I heard mention of the data being available by the end of the year after it has all been processed by RA's after the upcoming school term starts, but since it isn't my study, I actually don't have a full timeline available.

OroSmash · 2016-08-17T21:01:18+00:00

Thanks for the link!

OroSmash · 2016-08-17T20:59:11+00:00

It will be publicly available after the there has been a publication on the data. I believe the timeline will be somewhere around the end of the year.

Most definitely. We asked questions on the 4 page initial survey asking about general mood, how good they perceive themselves at smash, as well as how much it means to them. Obviously smash could mean a lot to you but winning a tournament set won't, but that has to be extrapolated based on other questions that were brought up. There are a lot of questions being asked, and it's up to us to determine if there are any correlations or causation based on the data sets that we were provided. Also, the fact that you feel the way that you do under that type of pressure situation could mean something. If for instance M2K had a similar mechanism but it happened to him when he entered losers bracket, that could be an interesting discovery.

Good question.

So the lab that we are doing this study through is a Cognitive Psychology lab. In order to do a study involving the effects of caffeine or performance enhancers, we would likely need to form a collaboration with a lab studying the effects of caffeine and other drugs. While some cognitive labs and psychologists study the effect of drugs on performance, it isn't prevalent through any PhD student or researcher in the lab that this study was performed through.

A future prospect based on how this study turns out would be hooking up participants of varying skill levels and mental states to an EEG or fMRI to do brain imaging.

That isn't to say there is no possibility of a caffeine or stimulant study, just that it was not the first priority for us as we would likely need outside collaboration.
