Attach keyboard should actually read: "You can choose to play me on an ally instead of the board, to give them my stats and keywords while I am attached. When that ally leaves your board to go somewhere else or you attach another unit to that ally, Recall me." It probably was way too long to include in this form, so they erased some key parts from the text explanation. The text we get lacks a lot of the description needed while still being the longest keyword description by far. All the weird interactions stems from the fact that an attach unit is never summon into the board while affecting another unit that actually is in the board. Most buffs are writen in the card they are buffing, attached units aren't like that. The buffs ar writen in a different card that the one receiving buffs. That's the whole difference. For example, units lose their buffs and any other "added text" (such as silence) when they leave the board. Attached units don't lose any buff or added text because they never leave the board (remember, they never were on the board to begin with). Entomb & ancient hourglass interactions came from the fact that those cards text doesn't tell you what they actually do: they obliterate a unit to create an exact copy that will be summon when the landmark countsdown to 0. The weirdness comes because the attached unit is still buffing the original card, not the copy. Since the original copy was obliterated instead of leaving the board (to go elsewhere) means that the attached unit doesn't get recalled. Instead the attached card is now stuck in limbo buffing a unit that's no longer in the board. Making an exact copy does that, it makes an exact copy. It's not like it copies the card AND the attached card, Just the one card. This why the exact copies don't have the buffs that the attached unit grant, because those buffs weren't in the original card to begin with! They were on the attached card!
@christiansesler33952 жыл бұрын
The phrasing "to go elsewhere" is still ambiguous imo. it implies that a unit that dies is going elsewhere but that a unit that is obliterated is not going elsewhere. with the lack of a graveyard system in LoR I think this wording still doesn't work

Here's a REALLY wack one I found against Veigar in the Path of Champions: effects that cause an Attach card to be played twice (or summon a copy of an Attach card you play) cause you to gain a second copy of the Attach card on your board, and if you actually attached them to somthing this second copy will be an on-board unit with the text of the Attached version (complete with the Attach keyword marker) but it actually counts as being on-board and you can attach somthing else to it - also note that since it has the wrong text a Yuumi made in this way won't work properly - she doesn't grow, she can't advance her own level-up condition and generally has no effect, although she CAN level-up as a result of the Yuumi that was actually attached to a unit attacking, which will give her the +1/+1 and Spellshield from the level-up increasing her base stats, but won't give her the extra +1/+1 and second spellshield from the level-up triggering her Round Start effect.

Even ignoring the inconsistencys it's very bizzare design Most Voltron (ie: stacking buffs) strategys are vulnerable to singular removal. Remove the buffed creature and they lose the equivalent of several cards This is how it works on most games. Stack enchantments on Magic the Gathering and you lose them all when the creature dies But attach works in reverse. You can stack buffs all you want and never lose card advantage because (save onbliterate) you allways get everything back

@@pedropradacarciofi2517 but you really haven't argued why it's bizarre design. You've only argued that it works different than in other games, which is fine or even good. And there are even examples of cards and mechanics in other card games that work similarly (equipment in magic, val'anyr in hearthstone from the top of my head). Not losing card advantage when the buffed unit dies has upsides and downsides designwise. The upside is that the cards become playable without needing incredibly strong effects/support. For example equip spell cards in yugioh are almost unplayable unless the card is mega broken, or the archetype the card is played in has insane equip support. The potential downside for not losing card advantage, is that the cards provide a certain amount of inevitability, since the opponent will eventually run out of answers, while you keep the buff cards in hand. But in my opinion this really isn't a problem in LoR. If anything LoR could use some more inevitability.
@Yous01472 жыл бұрын
@@Boguinnn I agree here, I think the reason why attach works the way it does is exactly because the designers looked into equip and aura cards from other card games and wanted to facilitate something better that actually works. Similarly in MTG, both equip and aura cards are either never played, or they're broken or they're really just an engine card masquerading as an eqiup/aura. The fact that they managed to make the concept work so well in LoR relatively speaking (despite how weird it is) is a marvel really. Besides, one cool aspect of the weirdness is that it brings about an exploratory aspect that you rarely have in card games, usually that only comes about in deck building, and having it be consistent is both important and a big plus in making the unorthodox rules actually seem legitimate and fair despite the learning curve.

@rheyn83562 жыл бұрын
Definitely not to the same extent of being unintuitive but granting keywords isn't fully explained either. There's no in-client list of keywords that Viktor/Hothead/Porobot can get and the list they can access is different from the list of keywords that can be shared by Sivir/Zoe/Give it All. E.g. Deep can be shared and instantly buff your board +3/+3 with Zoe but Viktor can't roll Deep as a keyword. Same goes for Double Attack, Lurk, Formidable and a few others. There's a funny interaction with Capture where if the original captor card is cloned, e.g. by Splinter Soul, both bodies are considered to be capturing the same target, so if either dies, the target is released. Found that one out the hard way in PoC. Stunned units can still battle if by another effect cast on them after being stunned, like Ruined Reckoner or Cataclysm. Units that summon extra bodies on summon, e.g. House Spider, appear to create the main body first, but the secondary body hits the board first when resolving effects like Roiling Sands. If a unit is summoned to a full board on the stack during combat that would kill a unit to make space, like by Concussive Palm, the new unit is still obliterated as the board is full when it tries to enter, but if it's summoned by an in-combat effect, like Braum, it waits until combat resolves to land on board. It's never been as usable as Attach, but card games, especially digital card games, have always and will always have weird fringe interactions between card effects. It's just part of the genre.

@Yous01472 жыл бұрын
I think a dev cleared out that the reason behind not making fast speed silences and freezes is because of their binary nature, if you respond with a stat or skill buff while it's on the stack you'll end up surprised that your buff gets shut down because your buff goes first, then the freeze/silence second. This feels horrible, especially if you're new and learning the game you might fall for this a couple of times and it might be a deal breaker. Some people would argue that's just part of learning a competetive card game, but I'm sure the devs would argue that that kind of design is what makes LoR in general feel much less punishing than a lot of other card games.

If Zed has a Yuumi attached to him, and he creates a shadow "with his stats" and the shadow includes the Yuumi stats, then that implies those stats are part of Zed's body. This is consistent with Mask Mother, who copies all of the stats as if they were on one body, despite sending the Attach unit back to hand. So far so good. The problem here is that making an "exact copy" of a unit that has a card Attached to it does NOT replicate the Attach stats. This implies that the Attach stats are NOT part of the main unit's body, which is inconsistent with the other two interactions.

@@jalcome4201 I think the problem is in wording. I understand that mechanically, stuff like Zed and Mask Mother are just looking at the stat number and copying it unconditionally. But that's not what the wording implies. Zed doesn't say that he makes a shadow with his stats plus the stats of another unit that is attached to him, he says he makes a shadow with HIS stats. This implies the stats that belong to Zed and nothing else. The shadow including Yuumi's stats implies that Yuumi's stats count as "Zed's stats" because that's what it's supposedly copying. But when you create an exact copy of Zed he doesn't get those stats, which contradictorily implies that they AREN'T "Zed's stats". Basically, the way things are worded, it sounds like "create a shadow with Zed's stats" and "create an exact copy of Zed" should produce units with identical stats, but they don't. They do different things under the hood in a way that is not communicated to the user. This is a UX issue.
