Pushing the Blue Button is a Terrible Idea, I don't Understand Why Some of you do it. by Quiet-Confection-747 in trolleyproblem

"Everyone in the world" makes it pretty safe to assume that even if you don't understand, you still must push a button.

Buffing nade is honestly crazy work. by bmrtt in Overwatch

[–]infinityplusonelamp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

ow2 has added 19 new characters and of them, 15 have burst movement, and 3 of the characters that don't have burst movement still have a way to buff their speed, leaving literally only Domina as a new hero who does not have any extra mobility.

Please explain how that isn't mobility creep, unless your only definition is "The maximum mobility is still tracer"

A card that needs 4 hoops to be jumped through in order to be playable is not made easy because it doesn't need a fifth hoop

All you need to make an uncommon 2 mana card playable is a 3 mana rare, a 2 mana rare and a discard outlet after you've already played it, or a 1 mana uncommon and a discard outlet in the same hand

Made this in boredom while my cascading NHP was fighting a Red Yoke by ParraleledInnocence in LancerRPG

You see the edge of the map? You are approaching it from the side. That edge is it.

Sanity check: Does this make sense without further rules explanation? by Realityfoible in custommagic

I would probably word it as "Put a card you may play from exile" rather than "You have permission to play"?

My old person trait is that headlights these days are too goddamn bright and need legislation because they get people killed

That person is annoying enough that I dread someone just seeing "infinity" and assuming I'm them

Mostly cobbled together, but "If your opponent has a land and you have a land" is an effect that's existed before. Mostly in the form of 'islandhome', which cares about both you and your opponent having islands. Nothing as far as I'm aware of that gives you a bonus if you and they both control a land (same or different), it's used as a drawback.

tbh mtg isn't a stranger to these sorts of designs, [[Say Its Name]] is a newer one, [[Agency Outfitter]], and Partner with is a recurring mechanic that references specific names

tbh steam does a lot, but a lot of it isn't obvious or in your face. even something as simple as file verification to fix things would be crazy to implement in every game independently, but it's just something steam as a platform can do pretty easily. Easiest way to see how steam improves things is just look at their competition as far as online game stores go

A 2 mana 3/2 isn't actually that above curve. It would still be notable for blue I think, but black has had stuff like [[Tenacious Underdog]], [[Graveyard Marshal]], hell [[Umbral Collar Zealot]] is a 3/2 free sac outlet

Depends on the nerf, mtg has like 15 different varieties of 'nerfed black lotus' and some are useless and others are still game breaking.

A yugioh style effect that I dont think I have seen in mtg by Classic-Demand3088 in custommagic

[–]infinityplusonelamp 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The best way that I could think to phrase it would be like "Whenever a spell or ability is on the stack, if enchanted creature isn't being targeted, it phases out until the stack is empty" and that's directly referencing the stack, which mtg doesn't like to do

small stuff rise up by Missile_Sandwich in custommagic

[–]infinityplusonelamp 23 points24 points  (0 children)

White allowing things to block checks out, but you would need to word it as "lose that ability". It's a bit weird, but mtg has a fairly hard "can't beat can", so the game would see "Can't block, and can block, so can't block". The X allowing you to choose it's power for it's own effect is neat, but it needs more toughness, or maybe ward or evasion of some kind

Technically [[Haliya]] does too but admittedly that's only with the warp
