Flushing out the Good Sports collection

[magic stag]

There's nothing inherently wrong with Good Sports but I feel like the collection has some room for interesting buffers. Anyone that has ideas for Good Sports cards and buffers can put their ideas here.

[finite hare]

The Ancient Greece card literally called the Olympics

[glacial vapor]

Here’s a card that I thought would help Good Sports better integrate into a tiny or bobbit worm deck.

[magic stag]

Great idea! With the draw ability, the play ability might be more balanced at 10 perm, but still really cool!

Or maybe the play abillity could have a condition of winning the round

Wait, is the play abillity meant to be for base power or base energy?

[glacial vapor]

The play ability is for base power, so it’s only targeting 3 cards in the same collection, but could be lowered from an 18 to 9 permanent boost to keep using golf course related numbers.

[magic stag]

OK, I think it's fine as is

King Cricket
Bugs

30

Cricket, Cricket

Your Cricket card, wherever it is, gains +50until played.
If you have played Cricket this game, your Good Sports cards, wherever they are, gain +20permanently.

[strange sky]

finally, Cricket is a good limleg

[urban vigil]

good sports can indeed use some love :D
might make something if I think of it but that’s not often likely

[drifting basalt]

Zodiac, Good Sports, Climate change....
All collections that desperately need buffs just for viability.

Meanwhile boxing gets absurdly OP cards all the time.

We will not stand for this collection inequality Avid 😡🛑

[urban vigil]

good sports only has 2 global buffers rn a good deck would need like 4-5+

and it also has a lot of older cards that are just generally weaker

[strange sky]

you're treating boxing as if it is a collection The problem with boxing is that any 70+ power card is a "boxing" card. A good 70+ card in a niche collection has the power to be a boxing staple. I mean once upon a time is a terrible collection and avid gave them the golden goose. The golden goose just happens to be good in boxing.

[drifting basalt]

MB 💀...

Ok, replace boxing with a meta collection then.

[strange sky]

to be honest the problem with boxing is all the space cards and px imo

[urban vigil]

also climate change idek what that collection wants to do with itself like it might honestly be beyond repair

maybe just a thematic statement of some sort

[drifting basalt]

My point basically is, why are these collections useless while there's some that are OP?

[urban vigil]

ig in a way it’s not possible to balance a card game with this much variety, so I personally see it more as it’s cool if they buff some niche collections but it’s not a must-do at every moment

[magic stag]

I would really love to see this card in the game. If they start taking cards from these forums, I really hope this is the one they take

[rose oriole]

well, the biggest problem 💀

[glacial vapor]

More Good Sports cards! Here’s one that works on its own or could be worked into a tully deck…

And here’s one that actively works against boxing/tully decks…

[high anchor]

This better have a secret combo if played between Chess and Boxing

[glacial vapor]

How bout this Secret ability:
Check-Out
If played adjacent Boxing and Chess, give your Good Sports and Playtime cards, wherever they are, +14 until played.

I imagine the graphic would be two people boxing on a chess board

[high anchor]

yeah thats pretty good

[crystal briar]

Haven’t gotten to it yet, but I have an idea for a basic epic:
Arm Wrestling

9 Energy
61 Power

Toproll
Start: If you are winning the round, this card gains +13 and costs -2 this turn.

[kindred grail]

well idk if this would work

[brazen loom]

still waiting on hula

[magic stag]

Still waiting for this card to be in the game...

[magic stag]

Hoping for golf this week

Surprised wrestlings not in the game, I feel Good Sports is a prime target for Resurrection this season
