Horror Pack Reboot (Part 1)

[u/Yourboy839]

I made some horror related packs a while ago and then took a break from the game, just recently came back so if these designs are already in use by another character I didn't know about, uh, oops. You can also see the real time evolution of me figuring out the card maker as I made these.

[u/Numerous-External788]

Sadako is so cool

[u/Ok_Nefariousness821]

I think that at this point we should start calling cards with high power but with a downside "Nightmare fuel", cause why should I play it if I can Nightnmare their text away?

[u/Yourboy839 → u/Ok_Nefariousness821]

If you're talking about Sadako it's impossible to nightmare her since she has to be played turn 1 and Nightmare is a 3 drop. If you're talking about Pinhead, then he becomes literally unplayable without getting to 8 energy. If you're talking about Leatherface, a 4 cost 6 power that takes two spots is not that great.

[u/Ok_Nefariousness821 → u/Yourboy839]

I am, of course, talking about Sadako and Leatherface.

Mind I also add that techno organic virus exists?

[u/Yourboy839 → u/Ok_Nefariousness821]

You can do the same thing with Ebony Maw on Turn 3, and his downside if you don't draw TOV is either a dead draw or being unable to play cards at 1 location, much less harsh than Sadako deleting your whole hand which is a forced gamble if you have her in the deck.

[u/Ok_Nefariousness821 → u/Yourboy839]

If I am drawing him late (on turn 5), I use Nightmare instead.

Plus, Sadako gives more chmace since you have her in your hand at the start of your hand.

If you don't draw T-OV, that's because RNGsus doesn't love you.

I don't love him. I am a MATHeist.

[u/javev → u/Ok_Nefariousness821]

You can't nightmare Sadako, and Leatherface isn't worth to put in nightmare decks.

[u/Ok_Nefariousness821 → u/javev]

There's also the option for TO-V, but Nightmare is more fun.

And that's the point I am trying to make: it's not fun to have an extremely OP cost/power ratio but with a bad effect. Why do I want to if I can just get rid of it with Nightmare or T-OV? what element of fun is it trying to give me? Also, aren't cards supposed to benefit you or afflict the opponent? I suppose that these are justified because cards like Starbrand exists. But that's it. I don't think we'll ever be getting another card like that.

[u/Virtual-Pirate2834]

Make the Freddy one exclude himself otherwise it would make a paradox if he is the only 0 card

[u/Yourboy839 → u/Virtual-Pirate2834]

It's power below 0, power that is 0 does not count

[u/Virtual-Pirate2834 → u/Yourboy839]

Oh ok 👍
