Re: Boring Book Boar
josh doesn't even play magic; its safe just to assume he doesn't know what he's doing

Re: Boring Book Boar
that seems kinda obvious to me but then comes with the obvious draw back - whatever you want to slay with in slot 1 does not get the support bonus, so you put peep in slot 7 sometimes anywaySkeletor wrote:i liked josh's trick of putting supports on the right and sheep princess in slot 5. you don't have to be a dick, khaos
Re: Boring Book Boar
being a dick is my god given right
speaking of which: did anyone find out why bracketbot just vanished? maybe dual streaming should go to a separate voice channel in the future or something

wow, [you]. that all sounds terrible. i hope it gets better for you
Re: Boring Book Boar
hearthstone battlegrounds is supposed to be like the best version of hearthstone right? i heard that one guy made it so it makes sense that it would be. like we didnt even want that mode but some asshole invented it in their spare time

Re: Boring Book Boar
it's also the best autobattler imo, or was before storybook
the autobattlers make more sense as a card game because you can understand the distinct interactions and think about them while building your deck before watching it autobattle

Re: Boring Book Boar
so you build a deck and then it ... plays itself? i've only heard of battlegrounds. i don't know how it works

Re: Boring Book Boar
okay well the way this all went down starts with the mod for dota, dota auto chess
it's 8 players. each round you get some money to buy a "piece", in this case a dota hero, in hs/sbb it's a card
on round 1 you can really only afford 1 hero/card and you put it on the board. in auto chess it's a board that's kind of the size of a chess board if dota heroes were the size of chess pieces. in hs/sbb it's like the hs board (though sbb has some back row slots)
then you're paired with one of the 8 players, and auto-first happens. loser loses some life. you go back to the shop to buy more pieces, and improve your setup. then another auto battle, over and over until only one player remains
you have a fixed number of units you can put on the board, let's say 7 but it probably varies a little between games. as the game progresses you get more and more
money that lets you buy better and better units and sell the early units back. all these games are based heavily on tribal synergies so you're usually transforming a deck in a way that maintains synergies with your lower level cards
you can also level up your cards/pieces by buying 3 of the same piece. they combine into a mega piece that only uses one slot
that's pretty much the mechanics of it
when the mod got ultra popular i guess every company went oh shit this might be a brand new mega popular genre and everyone wanted to be the league or dota, or the fortnite or pubg of this new goldmine. so that's why a dozen clones all happened at once
wow, [you]. that all sounds terrible. i hope it gets better for you
Re: Boring Book Boar
That's kind of the one-sentence description. You auto-fight many games as you slowly build up your deck, against your opponents as they do the same. The loser isn't eliminated, they just lose some life points (the harder you lose, the more life you lose).
This is interesting because you have to juggle between building towards a powerful mid and late game and taking stuff that's good early so you don't get completely wrecked in the first 10 battles. And you fight each opponent multiple times, so you can often see what kind of a deck they're building towards and try to find a counter for them, so you can beat them in the lategame.
Re: Boring Book Boar
how is this different than like league's auto battler? like, you buy five? cards at a time, because you're building a deck? in tft you have champs on a field and your stuff is pretty static, like you just put guys onto the field and they stay there and to win you have to power them up. so with this i'm guessing that your cards all get shuffled together each time you have to fight somebody and then you get like a hand? so you're like playing the beginning auto chess part every time? where you have to put out cards one at a time or whatever with very low resources but then you build up to more but like in a single match and then you start over for the next one?
Re: Boring Book Boar
There's no shuffling and no deck, you know exactly what your layout is going to be every game. The only randomness is in the battle itself, because each creature randomly decides which enemy creature to attack.
