did you not read what i said a few posts back? the coding would be child's play for zanz. he made a full GAME, a mere effect of the game shouldnt be hard at all. besides, there have already been alterations to the game that made poeple "trash" their decks multiple times. for starters, the sundial nerf made elements rather chaotic for a short period, but people got over it, not to mention the gods got stronger because of it (which is what zanz wanted). the fact that immortal creatures are now affected by shields that directly affect creatures COMPLETELY changed MULTIPLE decks. also, wings will be a HUGE change to the gameplay style of most people in the game. these "horrible" changes your so afraid of already happened several times. and people loved them. this is small compared to some of those changes. besides, who are you to talk for the THOUSANDS who play this game? as you attempted to do so here
MY OPINION, I REPEAT, MY OPINION IS AS FOLLOWS!



In my opinion, this game is a solid, well rounded, and decently balanced game. Unfortunately, my problem is as follows. Coding together only a specific group of cards(I.E. Momentum + adrenaline = 3 shield-ignoring attacks) would not only complicate the coding, which opens up possible bugs that are hard to fix, but would make the game itself too complicated, players having to worry about if this person is gunna mix adrenaline and momentum, or worrying if hes going to mix blessing and momentum, or something similar. Also, in the hands of a fale god, this would turn the dificulty level up on most false gods through the roof. If this were ever added to the game, people would have to design decks built on nuetralizing the target's abilities, and thus would yes 'create a new in-depth strategy', but also ruin most of the good, or at least decently balanced, strategies that do exist. This would result in people buying bigger bulkier decks because of the worry that they have about whether or not to bring nuetralizing cards or to bring heavy damage and hope that that adrenalined momentum creature doesnt kill you. I would just absolutely go insane, and most likely quit the game. So in my OPINION, this would just ruin elements for many players. You get my thumbs-down of dissaproval.  ;)
furthermore, most good games have been through MANY changes to the rules/play style in order to become as good as they are. just because ONE person says that they would quite, doesnt mean a massive number of others will quit for that same reason. not to mention the possible monotony that ensues if a game neglects changes. i myself have experienced this monotony in the earlier stages of this game's developement, before zanz started to come out with these AWESOME changes. people get bored of things easily. change is good in most cases

1.) I did not
who are you to talk for the THOUSANDS who play this game? as you attempted to do so here
And I put THIS IS MY OPINION like that for a reason. Why? THAT WAS MY FREAKING OPINION.

2.) Change is good in most cases. Yes. I agree. But...
In my OPINON It is NOT in this case.

3.) Just because Zanzarino coded a game doesnt mean everything is childs play. Im not undermineing his abilities as a professional, but I do regret to inform you that he is not Script Jesus, and he cannot doe everything. Furthermore, you do not know how long it has taken for Zanzarino to make the game what it is today, and you do know how long this game was being created and processed before its alpha release. For all we know, he could have been working on it for 2 years before 0.1 was over..

Three strikes your out. You do put up a well-tuned arguement, but Im afraid I have to disagree. I will no longer respond to this, as it is just a battle of the differences between our opinions. In this event, we cannot be truly 'correct', as it isnt for what in which we know, but what we believe. We do not KNOW if this is a good idea or not, we BELIEVE whether this idea is good or not. Good fight.
Bye.

1) if it were indeed put as an opinion, why did you try and speak for other people?

2) i cannot deny you this argument, however i may disagree

3) i never said "everything" was child's play for him, i simply said this would most likely be.

as for the after-argument, that wasnt 3 strikes, you proved nothing other than it's a battle of opinion and the fact that neither of us can be completely correct, which i completely agree with. therefore, its 0 strikes thus far.
