Ive enjoyed it!! There's some QOL coming for new players!

...opening MSE

transness is a gift. i need every trans woman to understand that by nature of their existence they have been blessed with the ability to pluck the strands of fate with their hands if they choose to. it is not always easy and it is not without hardship but every trans woman is capable of greatness.

congrats on closing your tab eri!!

...i guess a single 👀 was all i needed to go fucking off

but unlike magic where the screw and flood is ENTIRELY random, the only randomness here is the color of your runes. there's no such thing as flood, and screw is entirely SELF INFLICTED

FUCK

the design space for this is so fucking wild, and it means you can do a banger turn and then on the next one you're still rebuilding. so maybe you wait a little, slow play, bide your turn and your resources... or maybe you're like "NAW ILL JUST WIN" and burn it all down

energy is always colorless, any rune generates energy. but POWER requires certain colors. and there's abilities on cards which can require power too! like tap it, spend a power (ie kill a land), do a thing. or a kicker cost paid when casting so a unit enters untapped and ready. its so fucking neat

YES YOU CAN DO THIS TO TAPPED RUNES!!

in this way, powerful cards literally cause you to effectively *lose* lands and reshape your curve. its so fucking WILD

okay so you have a seperate deck of runes from your main deck, and you flip the top 2 each turn. its 12 cards, and you determine the color split. cards cost energy, which you get my tapping them, but certain cards IN ADDITION cost *power* which you get by putting a rune on the bottom of the deck.

i do think that you could have the scoring be more like league in a "destroy your opponents buildings" way, where there's like a little base with turrets and your nexus but maybe thats too complicated and having the battlefields is better

the fact that the screw is very self inflicted is something i LOVE. like MTG lands are the best resource system because of the variance, and this maintains good variance but removes a lot of the bad ones. i look forward to the game also possibly having non-basic runes in some future state

it is very miniaturesy, with the battlefield control, movement, and holding points

double fuck: my favorite deck is teemo. i know i know, you can start stoning me to death whenever

goddamn it now i have to find a weekly near me that fits with my schedule

the mana system... THE MANA SYSTEM!!! fuck im gunna keep rotating how they work in my head holy shit
