Drawception Trading Card Game

If you really don't feel like reading all of that stuff I wrote, here is the example I made: http://imgur.com/a/nRPnj

Tell me what you think about it :)

Here's what we have so far based on various sources from within the community (especially Tiago3168)

• You lose if you get to 0 hitpoints (HP).
• HP can be equal do 120 ou 150 (similar to 12 or 15 panel games) but is always the same to both players.
• There are creature cards and special cards. Creatures have an attack, hit points and skills. Specials do special stuff.
• You have a deck with 30 to 60 cards.
• Creatures attack your enemy's HP directly, not each other.
• You can summon 1 creature/turn and use as many specials as you like.
• At each turn, the following things happen: 1 - You draw a card; you play your cards; your monsters attack the enemy.

Now here are some card ideas. Creatures are in the following format

NAME (MAXIMUM NUMBER OF THIS CARD IN A DECK) ATK/HP - SKILL: Skill description

Generic Stickman (10) AT:3 HP:1 Easyness: This card doesn't count as a summon, you can play another creature this turn.

Batman (2) AT:8 HP:6 Bat-emergency: If you have no creatures to summon this turn, you can search for a Batman in your deck.

Reed (1) AT: 0 HP:20 Update: Flip a coin every turn. If it's heads, everybody loves the update and Reed receives +5HP. If it's tails, everybody hates it and the enemy creatures will atack Reed's HP instead of yours next turn.

Venom/Spiderman/Deadpool/Strong Bad/Power Ranger (5) AT: 8 HP:3 Metamorphosis: Every turn, choose who this card is among the 5 possibilities and don't tell your opponent. Your opponent must try to guess it. If he guesses it right, the creature looses 1HP. Venom/Spiderman/Deadpool/Strong Bad/Power Ranger cannot be affected by special cards or creature skills.

Corvax (1) AT:7 HP:10 Awesome Drawing Skills: Every creature that you summon when Corvax is already summoned on your side gets a bonus of +3/+3.

Troll (2) AT:20 HP:1 Short-Lived: Trolls loose 1HP every turn.

Trouble Muffin (6) AT:5 HP:X Memetic Badass: Trouble Muffin cannot be destroyed. It may be affected by other cards and skills that don't kill or hurt HPs.

Some ideas for special cards:

Everything Comes Down to Poo (2) All brown creatures (Trouble Muffin, Corvax, etc) become Poo. Poo has AT:0 HP:5 and you loose 1 HP every turn for each poo on your side.

Pokéball (3) Capture an enemy creature with HP = 2 or 1. You can now summon that creature as if it were yours and it will have it's original HP.

New Meme! (1) Choose a creature. On every turn of the player who owns that creature, an identical creature will apear on his side of the field. You cannot choose creatures whose limit per deck is 1.

SEXY dragon cow could cause all male opponent cards to skip a turn with the ability Udder Distraction.

You could have special cards for some of the buttons/tabs on DC. Skip-opponent skips their next attack phase Skip+report-opponent skips turn Search-search your deck for a card Undo-to return a creature to it's owner's hand(especially if certain creatures have abilities that activate when they are played) Etc.

We have to have a Liam Neeson card. His ability can be Seek and Destroy. "I don't know who you are but I will find you and I will kill you." Choose a card in your oponent's hand and destroy it.

So anymore suggestions for cards/ abilities are welcome :) We already have a few people on board to create card images too.

Also- I think this may be in the wrong forum section? Not sure if you can change that or not but since this is kind of a side thing and doesn't really effect the actual game of Drawception may it should be in either the "Art" or "General" forum? IDK just sayin...

I can't really change it. I could repost. Whoops D:

that sounds awesome

As I said on the DC Facebook page, you guys come up with a cool, agreed upon design, and I'll do it up properly in illustrator. :)

Someone mentioned at the facebook page that captions should be a part of the game (and not just as cards). I thought about it, and... well. let's see what you think of this:

1 - Games have 3 rounds. 2 - At the first round, both players have 150 HP. 3 - As soon as player loses, another round starts. In this round: a) Everybody keeps the monsters that they already have at the game. This includes the player that lost (remember that you lose by having 0HP, so you can still have lots of monsters on your side when this happens). b) The player that lost starts with 120 HP. c) The player that won keeps his HP as it was on the end of the first round. d) The player that lost gets to CAPTION the creatures of the player that won. Captioning is a way of making creatures becoming other creatures that exist in game (this means creatures that are also designed cards in the TCG). If your enemy has a SEXY Dragon Cow you could make it turn into a regular cow, or a robot-cow, or a dragon, or Trogdor (supposing this will all be cards) - but NOT into a stick figure, there would be a list of reasonable captionings for each card (we're not trolls). 4 - The 3rd round plays exactly like the 2nd. Of course, if the same player wins both the 1st and the 2nd round there's no need to a 3rd one.

Also, other stuff:

*The "Troll" card should probably be removed, we don't want to acknowledge trolls (someone pointed this out at the DC facebook page).

*Batman's Skill should probably be changed to Utility Belt: choose any special card from your deck and use it imediately as soon as you summon Batman (it makes more sense).

New Cards:

Creatures:

SEXY Dragon Cow (1) AT:12 HP:5 Udder Distraction: All heterosexual male and homosexual female cards skip a turn while this card is on the field (i.e. not attack on turn 1, attack on turn 2, not attack on turn 3, attack on turn 4 etc)

Specials:

Skip Button (3) Opponent skips their next attack phase

Skip+report (1) Opponent skips turn

Search(2) Search your deck for a creature.

Undo (3) Return a creature to it's owner's hand

(those special cards ideas are not mine, the guy's name is Colin McRae - I don't know what his nick is here. I just changed the Search card to specify creatures so it wouldn't be just a better version of Batman's power)

Also, if we are really going to have the 3 round games, decks should be much larger than 30-60 cards, so that your cards don't end too fast. This would mean we need to change the maximum number of each card. Anyway, let's make this happen!

Last minute idea: BLANK CARDS! Every deck has one blank card so that you can create a card DURING the game by drawing on it. Later, that card will become official. This way we can keep the cards flowing and have unpredictable games.

Stephen Hawking

-1 attack for all enemy cards

Nyan Kermit

All new cards become Nyan Kermit

Trogdor

Negates the influence of SEXY dragon cow

Bacon

+2 HP to all cards

Hypnotoad

All green cards become inactive

Lol. I don't get stephen hawking! Why that effect? Is he a creature or a special? This is becoming huge! :D

Hawking is a special. His immense intelligence counters every single enemy attack, making them less effective.

These are such great ideas! Can somebody link the FB page?

And having the battle cards would be so cool! I would totally go for those over collectors cards! :D

and @Crazylegsmurphy that would be so awesome if you could make it on illustrator. I really like the idea of this being a print your own card game. If you wanted to get ahead you could make a template for it, just to get it set up :D

Should we discuss what things should be on the card? I'm assuming they'll have most things that like Pokemon/magic/yugioh cards have.

This is so bizarre. You are all using words that I individually know the meanings of, yet you are putting them together into an entirely foreign language. Don't anyone try and explain... it's kind of sweet watching a full geek-out in progress.

Actually to be fair, some of the words I don't know. But it would spoil it if anyone explained.

@Tiago3168 Thanks for the ideas. I'm not too hip on the whole actual battling of cards. I was one of those kids that collected Pokemon cards and only battled once. I'm a girl, what can I say. So other people would have to converse about the points and such.

@Ackter Thank you for the links and card ideas! Keep em up! With the stephen Hawking could his power maybe take off 10 points of attack or something like that?

@Pyro thanks for the post over from the FB page! I'll have to go find it! :D

@Moku haha! I just laughed so hard! Just the way you wrote that was so purrrrfect...(sorry lame pun) I'll go hide now.
