Mirror (Uncommon)

[midnight vale]

Doubles base chip value of every counted card. Destroys itself after a face card is played.

Alternativaly: Destroys itself after 5 played hands.

Could synergize perfectly with hiker.

[primal granite]

What’s the theming for faces?

[plush cliff]

Huh

Yeah what’s the theme for faces

Shouldn’t it be the opposite

Since it’s yk a mirror

[hidden island]

permanent exponential scaling??

[plush cliff]

Maybe it’s temporary scaling?

If it’s permanent, it’s a definite for me

[quaint mason]

Since it doubles the value, you could call it seeing double, and becaus it's a mirror and you see 2 objects

[plush cliff]

@midnight vale can you please explain?

[mossy harness]

knight to c2

[plush cliff]

Queen to h5 checkmate

[hidden island]

maybe it could also work with having 2 different suits

[quaint mason]

Qh5+

[grim elbow]

Bxh5

[quaint mason]

Grr

[zenith wave]

maybe one suit could be clubs

[hidden island]

yeah good idea

[grim elbow]

git sniped.

wait do you play chess

[plush cliff]

I play some chess, but I mostly just play Go

[zenith wave]

Just Nxh5 in return smh

[quaint mason]

Nxh5 (from an advisor)

[plush cliff]

Actually did you know that Go is currently the oldest known board game?

[grim elbow]

@quaint mason enough to know that + means check and not checkmate. or were you saying it was check instead of checkmate so that i could take it with my bishop. because if so, then you're playing 6d chess

[grim elbow]

h4

[zenith wave]

AlphaZero ahhh move

[plush cliff]

I dare one of y’all to en passant

[grim elbow]

it attacks the knight

[zenith wave]

...?

a pawn on h4 can not attack a piece on h5

[grim elbow]

i meant g4

[zenith wave]

this gives me brain damage sob

[grim elbow]

that's why chess was made

[quaint mason]

O-O-O

Get wrecked

[plush cliff]

Meh, Go and Shogi has like 5x more brain damage

[grim elbow]

Ne7+

[quaint mason]

I used to play Go, I wouldt say I was good but I completely forgot the rules, it's the one with the black and white dots right?

[plush cliff]

Yeah

And you capture liberties

[quaint mason]

I place a suspicious bush in the pocket

Or fxe7

[grim elbow]

why is you pawn on the 8th row

[quaint mason]

Gonna promote

[plush cliff]

Go is very oversimplified, which makes it an extremely complicated game to stratagise

[quaint mason]

U mean 6th right?

[grim elbow]

are you drunk, or am i. or both probably both. what if on f8

[plush cliff]

And Shogi is the opposite with so many pieces with different moves

[plush cliff]

Rook to Pipi.

[grim elbow]

you long castled then i gave a check with my knight on e7. how do you think that works

[grim elbow]

pipi is you

[plush cliff]

Buddy have you not heard of anarchy chess

[hidden island]

holy hell!

[grim elbow]

yes, a really great video on it

[quaint mason]

I place a suspicious bush in the pocket

[hidden island]

new response just dropped

[quaint mason]

I'm about to 3 crown u if you don't move your knight

[hidden island]

actual zombie

[grim elbow]

[plush cliff]

This is now the anarchy chess thread

[grim elbow]

to the shadow realm

[quaint mason]

Yea for some reason i thought u were attacking ur king

[quaint mason]

Bxe7

[plush cliff]

I change my pawn into a queen, then sacrifice 2 of my queens to summon an Amazon!

[grim elbow]

chess do make your brain go "what the f' did i just do"

[grim elbow]

Ixk9 out for a walk

[quaint mason]

I???

K9 makes sense since we evolved the board

[grim elbow]

i take (x) my dog (k9) out for a walk and leave the board

[quaint mason]

You go follow @plush cliff to the Amazon?

[grim elbow]

no i find a bishop to snipe you with

[quaint mason]

Obviously, from q17

Gosh

I'm so blind

[plush cliff]

The Amazon is a custom piece, it moves like a queen and a Knight

[quaint mason]

Oh, so just bullshit

[plush cliff]

I mean I don’t have any queens anymore

[grim elbow]

no not that one, the one from new zealand

[quaint mason]

I mean, it's like changing a Gros Michel into a Cavendish

[plush cliff]

Yk what I’m gonna make a separate thread for this lol

[midnight vale]

Sorry for not responding it's ment to be permanently. But as said as an alternative it could destroy it self after like 5 played hands. Could also be after like 3 or so but I guess 5 is fine.

[plush cliff]

Yeah, no.

This is insanely broken

Since you could just stack the same few cards for 5 turns

[midnight vale]

Would 3 played hands fix that?

Or what about this:
The joker doesn't destroy itself but it only works once per card.

[plush cliff]

Make it temporary

[midnight vale]

Like resets after every boss blind?

I just think that this would kill the whole point of the joker

[plush cliff]

No, when the card is destroyed, all the stats turn to normal, also it doesn’t stack

[plush cliff]

Because you made hiker but broken

And also because you basically buffed all retrigger cards

[midnight vale]

Oh I get it. What about this then:

• Doubles every base chip value only once
• Destroys itself after 8 played hands (would fit thematicly cause it's symmetrical)
• All buffs turn back to their value before it was doubled

[plush cliff]

Yeah basically that

[midnight vale]

Totally forgot about that aspect of the game

[plush cliff]

Man this joker Can’t get any more broken

Hack:

Also hanged man lol

[midnight vale]

How could I forget about these jokers. I totally get how this would quite literaly break the game.

[plush cliff]

I think you should resuggest this under a new post

With the changes

[midnight vale]

Gonna do that. Thanks for the feedback
