The 4 mana 7/7 card is so funny. It’s a reference to a meme from hearthstone about blizzard creating cards with overpowered 7/7 stats compared to the low 4 mana cost, but they usually came with some big drawback effect

[@n0etic_f0x]

Oh it’s a Hearthstone reference. As an MTG player I am like what is that drawback _”If this creature attacks or blocks lose the game”_ It’s a mono red for red 3 called something like living apocalypse.

[@nl_7523]

overload 2 isn't even that much of a drawback

[@hitthere7722]

@@n0etic_f0xNo no, it would normally be a 1BBB demon with “At the beginning of your upkeep, sacrifice a creature” There’s an actual card with almost this exact stat line, except it’s a 6/6 I believe

[@n0etic_f0x]

@@hitthere7722 God that’s so much power creep, I have not played in about ten years. It’s too expensive.

Inscryption also has a 4 mana 7/7

14:10 there IS a witcher card game, it's called gwent. And Geralds effect in that game is destroying an enemies's card above a certain stren3, just like here. I love all these references

[@Arkouchie]

I like that people just continue calling Geralt Gerald

[@vincentdessalles254]

Holy hell, I did not expect this. So many clever references and inclusions of "cards" in this. I loved the Hearthstone one, very flavorful.

[@Divulsi]

That had me dying

[@matroqueta6825]

My favorite reference was the "Dark Flower" that gives you an ace of each suit when played

[@Ashebrethafe]

27:37 The way the kanban card works is that you choose a card in the draw pile to put it on top of, so that the next time you draw it, you know the next card you draw will be the one you chose.

[@Kavukamari]

the idea of a gambling hall where they basically play calvinball with whatever vaguely card shaped thing anyone brings in is really hilarious to me

[@helloworldmasteredmusic]

6:01 Is that a... _SLAY THE SPIRE CLAW CARD REFERENCE?!_ Edit: 20:04 ok yeah there are slay the spire references

[@mxspokes]

You healed for 5, then took 19

[@SirBroadsword]

Heirophant is honestly one of the worst cards in the game. It should work like Trap Card, but healing you for your opponent's damage instead of reflecting it back.

[@m0002856]

So the way the Hierophant works is that you heal both players for whatever you’ve exceeded the bust limit by, but then damage is still calculated. So you healed for 5 since you had 26 in play, then you took 17 damage because of the opponent’s hand. The best time to use this card is if your opponent has already busted. If both players bust, nobody takes damage and you’ll still heal from your Hierophant card. I know you also said you weren’t sure how damage was calculated: the way it typically works is whoever gets the higher value does damage to the other player minus their opponent’s value. So your hand is your attack value, but it’s also your defense value if you lose. If you have 17 and your opponent has 19, you’ll take 2 damage. If you bust, however, you take damage as though your hand was 0. I believe if you get a Blackjack then it counts your opponent’s hand as zero? Not 100% sure on that one. You also activate any special bonuses from your suits in your hand at that time.

[@Squallshade]

Pin of Assistance.

[@alphapoo132]

Loved the part when olexa said "its busting time" and then proceeded to bust all over the place☺️

[@Apparat8]

I swear... If there's a phrase with the noun "card" in it, it's in this game.

[@hanifarroisimukhlis5989]

I laughed so hard at "the collector". Clever reference dev

[@TransTheVoid]

the Witcher does have a card game, both in-universe and as a separate game from the RPGs - it's called Gwent

[@deepslates]

8:22 there is a strategy in blackjack called counting cards, where you change your play based on the cards left to draw. You have better winning chances with more high cards left (more chances of a blackjack) so you should remove the 2

[@Arkouchie]

Though that strategy relies on the fact that the dealer is playing with the same deck as you, which isn't true here,

[@deepslates]

@@Arkouchie when counting cards you bet more if there are less low cards. What I’m saying is you get better odds by removing a low card

[@Arkouchie]

@@deepslates the reason for that is because it's more likely that the dealer busts. Your opponent here has their own deck, so you can't rely on that.

[@deepslates]

@@Arkouchie it’s because it’s more likely for you to get blackjacks/20s. It also makes the dealer more likely, but u play first

[@deepslates]

@@Arkouchie please don’t talk if you don’t know

[@eternal0paradox202]

I laughed so hard at the memory card, this game is amazing with it's puns and references

[@matroqueta6825]

The victim card is the one that got a good laugh out of me, i was not expecting that

[@indio285]

this game is all ive ever wanted from a deck builder

[@deejaydoubleyou]

Reminds of that Resident Evil 7 blackjack game I got kind of addicted to

[@lordforce5546]

The negative cards are op, you take them almost every time you see them

[@matthewlyons6544]

Yep, they give you the ability to cycle through your deck more, and work great with 4 mana 7/7 and +2

[@CrazyByDefault]

Terminate the Tower, ah yes, my favourite deck building roguelike

[@slayerdrake5901]

It's funny that in the start he said that healing was the worst

[@kinnectar820]

7s are the best to remove because if you draw them with a 10 you havethe highest chance of bust of you draw and its never good to hold

[@lordforce5546]

I have to disagree. The special cards in this game are OP. You want to remove all of the high cards so that you can play more cards every turn to play the special cards more often

[@3v1lp1ngv1n]

damage seems simple, the winner deals the difference in damage, busts are considered a 0 in damage calculation. if you have a blackjack the opponents hand is considered 0.

[@Kurobeau]

Yep, and then potential extra damage from card effects or clubs

[@Luigicat11]

Damage works by subtracting the lower number from the higher number, then dealing the remainder to the owner of the lower number, with a bust counting as zero.

[@TalixZen]

4 cost 7/7 is an overpowered card if you can get rid of all your high cards, especially if you add lots of negative cards.

[@PurpleMossCollectors]

Thanks for playing! Hope you had fun playing Jack Black ;)

[@stealthgamer4620]

I’d love to see more of this, I’d like to see this with an irl card adaptation.

[@8829patrickcox8829]

18:29 it said heal by the amount over bust which is 21 and you had a 29 meaning you healed 8 plus the rat dealt damage

[@kielaraneolus]

Four mana 7/7. Whack way to reference Hearthstone, just a Flamewreathed Faceless man.

just realized the collecter is the "trade offer" guy

[@KitoBallard]

The redacted art on the pokemon card haha XD nice. Edit: And then the ps1 memory card hahaha XD

[@Blujay64]

I love playing Jack Black

[@johncopenhaver4311]

Dude never remove a 10 value card or an Ace from the deck. That takes away from your odds to beat the dealer.

[@bbittercoffee]

This game has so many memes in it, I love it

[@xXDoUbLeDDXx38]

When you needed to remove a card and you said "the ace is obviously the worst" I literally made a noise to myself haha. That's how you make a perfect 21!!!! You need it to get a "blackjack" because ace =1 and 11 so to get it you need a 10/face card + ace. If not it's just a normal 21. At casinos you'll normal earn 1.5x chips for a blackjack

[@killzone1643]

You mentioned Jira and it gave me PTSD

[@OlexaYT]

Same brother

[@dieucondorimperial2509]

At the end you could’ve used terminate the tower to double the number on a negative card

[@iliassegha2174]

I'd like to see Olexa try Void Tyrant, it's like this mixed with slay the spire

[@OlexaYT]

I played it on mobile a while back and actually liked it a good bit. It’s just definitely got the mobile vibe that my channel doesn’t really focus on

its him needing to heal and not playing any hearts w the blank card

[@alphapoo132]

"You have busted..." 🤨🤨 excuse me?

[@StarlitNova12]

As a huge fan of slay the spire the references are amazing

[@jackyduh399]

I would say 5 is the best to remove because 15 is considered the worst hand in blackjack

[@matroqueta6825]

I'm surprised that there's not an "Inverse Card" which reads something along the lines of "If you would take damage while this card is in play, your opponent takes damage instead."

[@PopodumMan]

There actually is! It's called the "Trap Card" and it does exactly that effect! It's one of the only cards where it's worthwhile to bust. Edit: oh, you can see it at 20:02

[@matroqueta6825]

@@PopodumMan aaah i missed it, it's more of a Yu-Gi-Oh reference than the direct Uno reference but it checks out How about a "Yellow Card" with an effect along the lines of: once this card is played, your opponent is suspended for the turn and can place no more cards

[@PopodumMan]

@@matroqueta6825 I think the uno card reference is supposed to be the +2 card? Not too sure though. And that yellow card would be pretty powerful! Maybe it should instead force the opponent's next card played to have no effect and be value 0, as though the card was skipped. Edit: Oh. Yellow card as in sports. I am not smart

[@MichaelDarrow-tr1mn]

​@@PopodumManthere's also a reverse card

[@pattmahiney]

The best card to remove in a typical spread of A to K is the 7.

[@zekrom6537]

"if you bust this turn, heal both players BY THE AMOUNT BUST LIMIT WAS EXCEEDED BY" you didnt read it carefully, look at 18:12 top left corner you see the lil +5 and your HP went from 31 to 36 at first but you busted so you taking the damage from your opponent so -17 at 18:14 then its 36 - 17 = 19 hp thats your current health at 18:25

[@kanochoo1012]

If you want to remove a number remove 2-6 you don't want those numbers

[@Ratstail91]

So I'm playing this... I lost to the bartender.

[@beaniiman]

rofl. Who hits on 19 without any negative cards in hand like, what?!?!?

"charred lizard"... charizard lol

[@juansebastiancastillo5575]

This one seems kinde dope

[@jobcarl6039]

I dont understand the damage. Why did the rat take so much damage at 19:13

[@Qeisama]

He got a blackjack (21 total number). This invalidates the opponent making them deals 0. He also chose a club starter which adds the cards played as damage. He played 7 cards so he got 28 dmg. The opponent got 13 shield so 28 - 13 = 15 damage dealt, leaving the opponent with 10 dmg (25 - 15 = 10).

[@iconica9516]
