sounds like the target costumer (younger children) wont know who these players are.. probable would be better off making a deck with the units in the game, altough i guess that would mean big license money
|
If it was a good game, and the rules were great etc, I'd probably look at it initially. I enjoy CCGs, so assuming it was produced as such I'd definately try and get into it (we have a good CCG scene here).
If it was just trading cards, then no.

Drewbie (The Cookie Monster)
You mean ClouD right ?
|
Why is d'Appolo a sun god? Isnt Ra a sun god? (IE: white-ra?)

Ra is the egyptian sun god, Apollo is the greek one. They should just merge to form the ultimate progaming-casting sun god archon, that would fix things.
|
Flash not as strongest? What is this?
|
Top Trumps StarCraft? Now that's an idea..
|
How would you play with progamers? The rules would probably be ridiculously random unless you made it like Magic, with Att/Def modifiers, but even then it wouldn't make sense.
|
wtf isnt Flash and Bisu on that list?
|
Honestly, while at first it's kind of an interesting idea, I really doubt they'd be anything but a collector's product, and I don't even know how well that'd go down. Emotionally I love the idea, but realisitcally I'd never use them and thus would never buy them.
|
I want a Destiny four infestor hit squad card.
|
Why is Jaedong randomly in that list? In that case just replace all the Foreigners with the Top Korean BW players.
Now that I think about it, How can you include Jaedong without Flash? lol
|
Weird selection of players for strongest card.
|
ClouD is the fucking ![[image loading]](http://img223.imageshack.us/img223/3817/kruemelmonsteryn0.gif)
OK?!
|
I thought you meant having the different units as cards, then having upgrades as enchantments a la M:TG. Shame. I wouldn't buy this version at all, though.
|
If this is a Starcraft 2 card game then Jaedong can't be an option, unless you are merging BW and SC2 somehow?
|
Only thing I'd ever buy them for to use them for Tokens in MTG games. Right now I use Star Wars CCG cards ^_^
|
White Ra Is the strongest Card Duhhhh SPESHUL TACTIX
|
I would suggest making cards off the units in the game and you can have minerals and vespene be be cards as well that are used in the process of getting out a unit. The details and stuff I'll let you work out but I think making it similar to a game of starcraft is your best bet. You could use players as bonus cards or cards with special abilities similar to Magic the Gathering and planeswalkers.
If you made a game like this I would at least give it a shot but to top Magic as my favorite TCG would be difficult.
|
I said under $10 dollars
and < 5 times a week. probably 0.
.. but i would buy them ;p
|
White Ra Card should have the Spell "Speshul Instant win".
|
Why no Flash as strongest card?
|
Wow, if they ever make this, they should make Idra a player card with a special ability. Every time he loses a match, there's a percent chance he'll go on tilt. If he loses consecutive matches, this chance to go on tilt increases until he wins a match whereas it resets.
|
Yeah pretty weird poll. Probably should stick to just one game which I guess would mean Starcraft 2. Strongest card would probably have to be Nestea/MC/MVP or something, if not , then there shouldnt be any koreans at all. In BW Flash (his nickname Ultimate Weapon says it all) would have to be the strongest card, and I say that as a Jaedong fan.
Noones seriously gonna think that Drewbie should be anywhere near the very strongest players in the world, and I dont think Testie really plays SC2.
|
these cards better be holographic.
|
Units would be better cards than players. You may also want to focus on either BW or SC2, as right now you seem to be trying to combine the two.
The problem with using players is that their skill levels change quite often, so therepresentations of them on the cards won't be realistic in a few months.
Based on the player list you've come up with, you also have no idea what you're talking about, so you might want to talk to people who do. (Old foreigner BW player, current BW player, current SC2 koreans and foreigners, and Drewbie, who's bad.)

Card games have don't require you to be connected to battle.net 2.0, obviously.

Yeah I would also be more interested in game unit cards personally, and it seems like it would have better potential to sell to a broader consumer base.

^This.
Either create collectible card, like baseball cards, without a game (not going to happen, because you'll never get the rights use photo's of all top players). Or create a game with good flavour... using the starcraft universe as the setting. Otherwise you'll be wasting your time and money.
If you're serious about this you should start be designing a good game (on a mechanical level), otherwise it's never gonna work.
What is the definition of the strongest card? A very powerful card with marginal use, or a very versatile card that is less "OMG!" at first sight?
|
Wait, players are cards, not units?
|
If they were official Blizzard products, then my answer would probably be yes (simiar to the Warcraft TCG, but with starcraft units instead --not talking about gameplay as I dont know how to play the warcraft tcg), and I'd probably play them at least 5 times a week, more depending on how many differnet people i had to play with.
|
Im a TCG fanatic, so I'd buy + play if it was interesting enough

This was the greatest thing I've ever read on TL.

White Ra - ability: Activate special tactics = autowin.
No but seriously this feels like it belongs with a younger audience and I for one wouldn't buy them.
|
Im not sure how u would play a game with these cards? It'd be alright if they were just stats cards kinda like hockey cards or other sports cards. You could include matchup stats, apm, acomplishments etc.
If u want to make it a playing game like pokemon or something i think using the in-game units would be a better idea, and something tht would appeal to more people.
|
This is a terrible idea imo.
