Just Crouton Posted November 30, 2014 Report Share Posted November 30, 2014 So, are we making an entirely new card pool, or building on the existing stuff? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CLG Klavier Posted November 30, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2014 So, we got Channel, Ninjutsu, Bushido and a new twist in form of Level Up. Let's get to making cards at this point, shall we?~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poc Posted November 30, 2014 Report Share Posted November 30, 2014 What are we doing for color, card and rarity distribution? I'm guessing the normal distribution for a large set? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.Rai Posted November 30, 2014 Report Share Posted November 30, 2014 No plans for new mechanics? I could easily see replacing Channel with something new, or indeed just adding a new fifth mechanic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodrigo Posted November 30, 2014 Report Share Posted November 30, 2014 A new mechanic is definitely up for grabs. We need to make something flavorful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gokai-Red Posted November 30, 2014 Report Share Posted November 30, 2014 Clash would fit the theme? XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poc Posted December 1, 2014 Report Share Posted December 1, 2014 How about one that works with equipment? Some kind of affinity like bonus if a creature is equipped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.Rai Posted December 1, 2014 Report Share Posted December 1, 2014 Equipment was never really a Kamigawan theme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodrigo Posted December 1, 2014 Report Share Posted December 1, 2014 Equipment was never really a Kamigawan theme. Yeah, people often associate equipment with Kamigawa because Jitte. But equipment was slightly more relevant on Kamigawa because Mirrodin was the previous set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poc Posted December 1, 2014 Report Share Posted December 1, 2014 It could work, Samurai like swords and shit. I've mocked up some cards with an equipment based keyword. http://imgur.com/a/Zp3W6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.Rai Posted December 1, 2014 Report Share Posted December 1, 2014 Even if Equipment were a theme (which I don't actually mind, fits thematically even if the original Kamigawa didn't really delve into it mechanically), it certainly wouldn't have a keyword dedicated to it. The only reason for it to have a whole keyword is if the majority of the set was based on the theme (which I don't think is good for draft mechanics: even Zendikar and Mirrodin didn't bother keywording their Equipment themes once). At most, a cool implicit draft subtheme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poc Posted December 1, 2014 Report Share Posted December 1, 2014 Alright then, shoot some more ideas for a keyword mechanic then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gokai-Red Posted December 1, 2014 Report Share Posted December 1, 2014 Plus wasn't the Parallel Set meant to get the equipment matters theme? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CLG Klavier Posted December 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2014 Technically it would. We could have a small theme of equips I guess, I mean swords, shurikens and crap, but I wouldn't dedicate a mechanic to this since the other set will have one probably. So, what do we want the Spirits to do is the question? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CLG Klavier Posted December 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2014 Or we could make a collective PM if some people don't have Skype. *glances at Rai* That would be more noticable than this thread if someone gets a PM popup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Crouton Posted December 2, 2014 Report Share Posted December 2, 2014 Regarding equipment, we could have a keyword that swaps an equip already on a creature with an equip in hand or another creature by paying the difference in cost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gokai-Red Posted December 2, 2014 Report Share Posted December 2, 2014 We need a better way to communicate and organize ideas than this thread...Starting to schedule our things shall work too.Regarding equipment, we could have a keyword that swaps an equip already on a creature with an equip in hand or another creature by paying the difference in cost.Sort of like an equipment Take on Aura Swap but better that sounds cool.

.Rai Posted December 2, 2014 Report Share Posted December 2, 2014 I'll sort out Skype and be regular when I get off my arse, I promise! Equipment keyword that swaps equipment is really, really parasitic. I maintain that there is no need for a keyword relating to such a specific theme. Just a nice generic new keyword.

Gokai-Red Posted December 3, 2014 Report Share Posted December 3, 2014 For the equipment matters set, which happen to also be Arthurian Theme, I say we could have any of these- Attachable Equipments ala Cranial Plating.- Fortify (Yay Building Castles FTW)- A legends Cycle- Your Typical Creatures that Get better while holding a Weapon.- DRAGONS, TREEFOLKS, FAERIES.

CLG Klavier Posted December 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2014 Rai, I heard that...way too many times from you now. Making a Skype account is a matter of 2 minutes and you keep putting it away indefinitely :P Yeah, for the Arthurian side, I think it's all pretty generic stuff you can think of. Albeit I wanna have a keyword for "blessed" weapons, think something like this: CARDNAME [2] Artifact - Equipment Bless [2W] (You may cast this card for its bless cost. If you do, it enters the battlefield blessed.) Equipped creature gets +2/+1. If ~ is blessed, it gains lifelink. Equip [2] Of course just a mockup example, but you get my idea.
