Goal: A friendly competition with other players for the highest points possible!
Rules:
Each person commenting on this thread can ‘play’ 1 creature, spell, or support per comment; this counts as the player’s turn. A player may have another turn by commenting again, but only if at least 2 other players have had turns since.
Each player keeps track of their current board state, and has it added to each comment.
Each card can only be played once.
Point System:
Your creatures attack during each of your turns. Damage dealt by creatures during your turn are directly added to your points. (Other players don’t lose life or points by this, your creatures are essentially mining you points).
Killing a creature (or locking it down) via a spell or support gives you half the points of the creatures power, rounded up.
If a card you play allows you to draw cards, you instead gain 3 points for each card you would have drawn.
Life gain is 1 point per 1 life gained.
If a card you play forces your opponent to discard cards, you gain 3 points for each card you would force your opponent to discard (handle this like a 1 vs. 1 MTGPQ match). Credit to Thuran for cool idea!
Gem change awards 1 point per gem changed. Credit to Thuran.
Treasures can be “cashed in” for 3 points during your turn, or held onto for future synergies. Credit to Thuran.
I made this up, in the moment, off the top of my head, so additional rules can be added later to smooth out any arising complexity!
I play dusk legion dreadnought, because its probably the only occasion someone we’ll ever have to play it.
4/6 vigilance … Ahoy matey , ready to sail !
Top empty
Middle empty
Bottom his majesty the dusk legion dreadnought!
My points : whatever, we’re finally at sea old salt!
you have to work your way up. The only free cards to cast are commons. Uncommons, rares, mythics, masterpieces cost points. Otherwise people might just drop Emrakul or Piggy turn 1 lol
Cast Rush of Ice with awaken. Disabling Gilestone’s Rampaging Hippo (wont be able to attack during your next turn but can attack the following turns as it’s a 1-turn disable only). Summons 3 1/1 island elemental tokens with haste.
Gain 3 points from disabling a 5/6 (half its power rounded up). Plus 3 points from swinging with the 3 1/1 island tokens = 6 total points
I cast Rolling Thunder with awaken. An uncommon spell from BFZ. Costs me 5 points.
It deals 2 damage and then 4 damage to each of opponents’ creatures and the opponent.
All opposing creatures DIE!
Total power of dead critters 26, I get 13 points.
I get 6 points for dealing damage to opponent. (do I get 6 for each opponent? Not sure)
top empty
middle empty
Bottom 3/3 island elemental which will be enabled next turn.
I didn’t want life totals here so people wouldn’t be booted out of participating, or have it so you could attack a specific player so no one would feel like they’re being ganged up on. Given we are referencing mtgpq version of cards instead of mtg cards, and that mtgpq is currently 1 vs 1 only, I’d conclude there would only be 1 opponent being hit for 6.
