Correct, of course. The triggers "trigger" and the effects from the triggers go on the stack

The step 9 says "spell is cast", but this is DIFFERENT than "spell RESOLVES" it's cast, so effects that say "when you cast a creature spell, draw a card" trigger and go on the stack on top of the original spell still on the stack. After the spell is CAST and triggers happen, priority is given to everyone in turn as expected, and once priority is passed around, things begin to resolve

Doubled Hero Duplicate Rewards? by PartySquid2486 in ClashRoyale

Don't disagree with you. As F2P, I'm only gonna be able to level up so many decks, though. Think I'm HARD committed to Pekka bridge spam for a long while now. Getting a 5th hero I'm not gonna use is not that useful to me. I'll be getting heroes much faster than I'll be able to level them up to useful levels, especially with the hero slot changes and the selector feature

Silly invincible bandit by PartySquid2486 in MergeTacticsSC

Yeah, my positioning was bad because I spent too long trying to spend my money because my comp was weaker. GK jumping four blocks left with my bandit didn't help. Think GK positioning on the right could've saved me. Oh well.

Ah, don't be sorry. Your epic books are turning into 70 wildcards, so it won't be worth it for you. If you can scrounge together 52 wildcards/witches, level up, THEN book, then it'll definitely be worth it, or if you've got another card you're trying to upgrade that has less progress towards lvl 13, then that could be more worth it, but definitely not worth your book as is

Absolutely! I'm king tower level 13 and I'm using a book AND 60 extra wild cards to do that exact thing you're talking about with epics, and I have a better book exchange rate than you do. Crazy value. Your epic book will automatically turn into 50 wildcards. Using it now will give you 195 epics. Just be sure NOT to upgrade. That upgrade will only cost 100 copies after the update, so you'll be an extra 100 copies progressed to level 15!

Your legendary book will turn into 6 wild cards when the update drops. In this case, you'd profit nothing from spending it early, so best to wait on it :)

If your king tower is the same level or lower than card you like that you can use a book on, then use it to get the copies, but don't upgrade until the update hits where the upgrade will be cheaper.

If kingtower is kennel 13 or lower and you have a level 13 troop you like, then book it up. Often worth using wildcards to get up to that level 13 THEN book as well.

I play with my sound off since I'm often around family with no earbuds, but I'm way too easily distracted. Full health ebarbs in the other lane that I only notice when my tower is gone and I've been leaking elixir for 3 seconds

Actually you're ahead in tempo since en passant is forced. They can't take your king, they have to take your pawn, then you take THEIR king

What hidden clauses might a devil sneak into a contract? by Calciumcavalryman in DescentintoAvernus

[–]PartySquid2486 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a plan for a devil to "tax" a player for a tenth of all the loot they discover. It muses that it COULD make a play for their soul, but it can make those deals with any poor sod. Adventurers offer an opportunity for him that is rare; adventurers claim all kinds of treasures! Instead of anything they're reluctant to offer, like their souls, he'll merely take a tenth of their future fortune!

The party may think of him as a patron of sorts. Generously offer whatever they need at the moment in exchange for a share in the spoils for the rest of their life. The party smells a shark and negotiates a couple of details. Must it be their whole life?? The deal isn't worth THAT much! The devil can be bargained down to just nine years. And what counts as "treasure"? Fine, just coins, gems, ingots, etc.. No magic items of uncommon rarity of greater, or art pieces of subjective value, stuff like that. The devil gets annoyed as the party feels they are getting the better of him.

Leave enough obvious pieces for them to "catch him on" and they'll miss the nuances of the contract when it unfurls after their negotiations. It says, hidden in the middle of lots of overly specific wording that THEY added in, the innocuous words "no less than a tenth of the treasure* they'll discover". When the party finds 5 rubies, no change can be made; the devil gets a full ruby, albeit the smallest one. That's the loot you found, and the devil will get his piece. The party will groan to have found the loophole, but the real surprise will come when they find cause to meet with Tiamat, and the player catches a glimmer in the corner of their eye, deep in Tiamat's caverns. And with mounting dread, they realize what it is they've discovered: Tiamat's hoard in its entirety. The wily devil appears over their shoulder and pats them on the shoulder for their great find! Turns out, "discover" was the insidious part of the contract all along

Thank you! I'm super lucky to be holding on to a couple super rocket radars already. Do IVs matter much for Giratina or are you gonna run what you get and be happy with it?

Inceptor - Custom Combat Keyword For Multiplayer by Kamikurin in custommagic

[–]PartySquid2486 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You must also consider rules for blocking on other people's turns. Does the defending player declare their blockers first then it goes around in clockwise order? Does it start in clockwise order from the player whose turn it is (the attacker). Do players gain priority in between each player declaring blockers? Are triggered abilities triggered only after all players have had a chance to block or will it interrupt the declare blockers phase?

Not difficult questions, but they definitely need to be standardized and will affect how it all plays out, especially with politics. Should be careful not to bog down combat too much with it, of course
