LRRbot: The Hatter (Common) [hand: 4, reserve: 5] | Character — Citizen [5/5/0] | {D} : Target Character with Hand Cost {3} or less gains [[Anchored]]. (Discard me from Reserve to do this.)
calculated_uncertainties: I love how Ben starts explanations with describing the story the mechanics are telling.
kusinohki: should I be concerned about the QR code??
kusinohki: although a QR code that goes to a FAQ wiki about the card might actually be a cool idea...
dheid1: @kusinohki I'm more curious about the website's promoting "one-off in the world cards" as if that's a sought-after mechanic
TheMerricat: The QR codes look like they are effectively NFT fodder.
airylan: my understanding is that it's central database managed by the company, and registering the card allows you to order extra prints of the card. (so ... nothing like an NFT thing)
TheMerricat: "All cards will have their own individual QR code that isn't share by any other card. The exception is standard art token cards. If a card is unowned, like if it was just opened from a booster pack, it can be registered on the official Altered app and added to your collection. We recommend scanning new cards and securely registering them to your collection as soon as possible."
kusinohki: "one off in the world" ?? what does that even mean? only 1 copy of a card exists (like the one ring) ??
dheid1: @kusinohki I believe so, yes.
LRRbot: Ouroboros Croupier (Common) [hand: 4, reserve: 4] | Character — Citizen [0/4/4] | {H} Roll a die. On a 4+, draw a card. On a 1-3, [Resupply]. (Put the top card of your deck in Reserve.)

LRRbot: The Hatter (Common) [hand: 4, reserve: 5] | Character — Citizen [5/5/0] | {D} : Target Character with Hand Cost {3} or less gains [[Anchored]]. (Discard me from Reserve to do this.)
Laserbeaks_Fury: what are the QR codes for, is that for card reading?
TheMerricat: "All cards will have their own individual QR code that isn't share by any other card. The exception is standard art token cards. If a card is unowned, like if it was just opened from a booster pack, it can be registered on the official Altered app and added to your collection. We recommend scanning new cards and securely registering them to your collection as soon as possible."
Juliamon: Laserbeaks_Fury Scroll up a bit, TheMerricat shared the relevant info
vinopinguino: Ooo this boardgames looks cool!
vinopinguino: *boardgame
Laserbeaks_Fury: ahh
Lysander_salamander: do you register the cards for an online version of the game?
PMAvers: I mean, there *is*, but it's a special ability that a card can do. (It's called After You, and using the ability counts as playing a card.)
SeismicLawns: it does have a soft pass, but it's a keyword action that really only purple gets
Mai_Andra: so, uh... have y'all registered all these cards before flashing the QR codes all over the card reader?
Laserbeaks_Fury: "reverse the spin of your card"
itsaysTRUENO: is there a way to stop someone from reverse engineering the QR codes and register every card as their own?
GhostValv: neat as heck
Lysander_salamander: that does sound like an nft
Juliamon: It's explicitly fungible. They're physical cards.
Sarah_Serinde: Well if it's not use blockchain it's automatically way better than NFTs
spethycakes: oooh love some BGA
Lysander_salamander: well, ok
PMAvers: It's like if your magic cards came with a serial number that unlocked the card on MTGO.
couchboyj: Also, you don't need to pump a ton of CO2 into the air to make a QR code
LoadingReadyRun:
Similar to Flesh & Blood, cards can have different stats with the same image, so instead of using the regular card recognizer, I'm experimenting with getting the cards by directly scanning the QR code. Currently it's slightly janky, but hopefully it will work for today

(During Rest, it doesn't go to Reserve and it loses Anchored.) • 2-5, it gains 1 boost. (A boost is a +1/+1/+1 counter. Remove it when it leaves the Expedition zone.) • 1, send it to Reserve.

LoadingReadyRun: currently the API is *in development* so reading the QR codes for the overlay is a little clunky
TheWriterAleph: @LoadingReadyRun game is still Brand New brand-new
kusinohki: I may have the opposite opinion about mulligans...
LRRbot: Brassbug Hub (Common) [hand: 3, reserve: 3] | Permanent — Landmark | {J} I gain three Kelon counters. At Noon — You may pay {1} and spend one of my Kelon counters to create a [Brassbug 2/2/2] Robot token in target Expedition.

KeytarCat: Thanks, qrpth!
Laserbeaks_Fury: It's High Noon...
PMAvers: Same with spells, so instead of getting put in reserve after casting it, it'd get discarded.
Laserbeaks_Fury: can a card be Anchored and Fleeting?
RockPusher: Bye Beej!
LRRbot: Esmeralda (Rare) [hand: 2, reserve: 3] | Character — Artist [0/2/2] | {J} [Resupply]. (Put the top card of your deck in Reserve.)

Lysander_salamander:
PMAvers: @Laserbeaks_Fury Yeah, it'd spend the Anchored token to prevent going to reserve first.
KeytarCat: Ah, Alternates
Laserbeaks_Fury: okay so fleeting is like a replacement for going to Reserve
vinopinguino: hmm not my favorite mechanic
RatherLargeToad: I hope they don’t rarity shift things in the future. would get confusing
Divergent_Worldlines: The color is different on everything that's changed from common to rare.
KeytarCat: Sorta like upgrade points, a la slay the spire?
LRRbot: The Ouroboros, Lyra Bastion (Faction-shifted) [hand: 3, reserve: 3] | Permanent — Landmark | {J} [Resupply]. If you would [Resupply], instead reveal the top two cards of your deck. Put one in Reserve, and discard the other.
Lysander_salamander: oh a snake
LRRbot: Kelon Burst (Common) [hand: 3, reserve: 3] | Spell — Disruption | [[Fleeting]]. (Send me to Discard instead of Reserve after my effect resolves.) Choose one: • Send to Reserve target Character with Hand Cost {4} or less. • Discard target Permanent with Hand Cost {4} or less.
wiigamer1995: is the reserve like a 2nd hand?

LRRbot: Tanuki (Common) [hand: 3, reserve: 3] | Character — Spirit [3/3/0] | {H} [Sabotage]. (Discard up to one target card from a Reserve.)
Divergent_Worldlines: Some cards have discard effects while in reserve, but otherwise reserve is just like a second hand.
vinopinguino: listen all of yall, its a sabotagee
LRRbot: Axiom Scrambler (Rare) [hand: 3, reserve: 3] | Character — Engineer [2/4/2] | {H} [Sabotage]. (Discard up to one target card from a Reserve.)
KeytarCat: I think it's a specific reference to the zone, because they have a Discard zone, which is where Discard sends things
KeytarCat: Mourning
TheWriterAleph: also a free action in this one
SeismicLawns: on rares, the yellow thing is what's different from the common card
a_pidgeon: Was curious how much interaction there was going to be. Main play pattern seemed like both players just kinda doing their own thing.

BorealMage: catamaran?

LRRbot: Three Little Pigs (Rare) [hand: 3, reserve: 3] | Character — Engineer [3/3/3] | {J} If you control two or more Landmarks, I gain 2 boosts[]. (Cards in Reserve are not controlled. A boost is a +1/+1/+1 counter. Remove it when it leaves the Expedition zone.)
Dread_Pirate_Westley: A 5/5? 5!
Forgotten_Sanity: waldorf and statler?
Divergent_Worldlines: Pigs should also be fleeting since they were played from reserve.
Kentosaurus: it's weird to say them in that order
LRRbot: Off You Go! (Faction-shifted) [hand: 2, reserve: 4] | Spell — Disruption | Send to Reserve target Character with Hand Cost {3} or less.
PMAvers: Actually, remember that the Pigs got Fleeting from being played from Reserve too
ThePixelSavage: is this from the same people that made the newest Star Wars TCG?
Laserbeaks_Fury: Does Anchored work on any effect that would send a card from Expedition to Reserve, or is it just the Dusk
PMAvers: Fleeting actually cares whenever a card goes to Reserve, not just Dusk
SeismicLawns: fleeting replaces going to reserve for any reason with going to discard yea
KeytarCat: @Orxolon Put more green orange or blue on the left or right than your opponent. Your goal color is based on the center card: there's a little mark on the edge of the track card. You have a left track and a right track that you're trying to make cross, have your two meeples meet
Divergent_Worldlines: A fleeting card is discarded if it's sent to reserve for any reason.
LRRbot: Bravos Tracer (Common) [hand: 2, reserve: 2] | Character — Adventurer [3/3/3] | {J} I gain [[Fleeting]]. (If I would be sent to Reserve, discard me instead.)

LRRbot: Foundry Armorer (Common) [hand: 3, reserve: 3] | Character — Engineer [2/2/2] | {R} Create a [Brassbug 2/2/2] Robot token in target Expedition.
kusinohki: @nimiphi I don't mind learning games (unless I"m like learning my 5th game for the day). I just like playing games more than once and occasionally attempt to 'master' a game. too many of my group are 'cult of the new' and are trying to play through their collection or whatever and 1 play is enough for them *shrug*
LRRbot: Asmodeus (Common) [hand: 6, reserve: 6] | Character — Deity [5/5/5] | {J} Roll a die. On a 4+, I gain [[Anchored]]. On a 1-3, I gain 3 boosts[]. (During Rest, I don't go to Reserve and I lose Anchored. A boost is a +1/+1/+1 counter. Remove it when it leaves the Expedition zone.)
PMAvers: Oh, you should see the alternate art for Loki.
LRRbot: Foundry Mechanic (Rare) [hand: 1, reserve: 1] | Character — Engineer [1/1/2] | {D} : The next Permanent you play this turn costs {1} less. (Discard me from Reserve to do this.)

Nimiphi: yeah, I got a friend that could open a game shop with how many they collect and it can take a while just to learn one >.<

TheWriterAleph:
rosesmcgee: @kusinohki you were right
PMAvers: But there's a tie-breaker *past* that. The THUNDERDOME
SeismicLawns: the thunderdome rocks
KeytarCat: Just duke it out
Divergent_Worldlines: There is and "overtime" round if the players cross to the same degree.
kusinohki:
I could be wrong, but I think it's close to over....
PMAvers: So on the back of one of the expedition cards (I think it's the Hero one?) there's a special Arena region that gets used for the tiebreaker. Both Hero and Companions are in this region, and they can't get moved. At the end of the day, you sum up the totals from both expeditions. Each element you're winning in gets you a point, most points wins the game.
KeytarCat: Oh there actually is a thunderdome
Strebenherz: Evening. How's the afks tonight?
KeytarCat: I wrote a description of game objectives that I'm pretty proud of, so I'm having a great time
LoadingReadyRun: Unfortunately getting the card id from the QR code requires an API call to the Altered site, which requires an API token and they haven't implemented a way to automatically get that, so I need to manually refresh the token when it expires. I'm sure this will be fixed as they have more dev time
ThePixelSavage: or abandonned
ThePixelSavage: *-n
Juliamon: This game has decent hype, I don't think we need to consider that yet
Divergent_Worldlines: It is sad that a lot of their digital stuff isn't ready yet.
Divergent_Worldlines: Set two is this month, iirc.
Orxolon: woooo,Marvel rivals on CTS return!?
Orxolon: NICE
ThePixelSavage: @Juliamon we live in a world completely made of hype. So much stuff doesnt survive a year anymore
PMAvers: Oh, of course James is playing Ordis
Juliamon: It's still better to focus on the positive.
Mazrae: not going to lie i would want some of the art as a poster or something

LRRbot: Charge! (Common) [hand: 2, reserve: 2] | Spell — Maneuver | [[Fleeting]]. (Send me to Discard instead of Reserve after my effect resolves.) Characters you control gain 1 boost[]. (Cards in Reserve are not controlled. A boost is a +1/+1/+1 counter. Remove it when it leaves the Expedition zone.)
PMAvers: The Muna starter doesn't get any permanents, but in the full set they have a really neat one where it gives all their characters Tough 2, where if you want to target them with stuff you have to pay 2 more.
LRRbot: Beauty Sleep (Common) [hand: 1, reserve: 3] | Spell — Disruption | Target Character gains [[Asleep]]. (During Dusk, ignore its statistics. During Rest, it doesn't go to Reserve and it loses Asleep.)
PMAvers: Note you *can* target your own stuff with Beauty Sleep, if you overplayed in a expedition and want to keep something around for next turn.
Divergent_Worldlines: Boost stays on the gatekeeper.
shendaras: Does the boost go away on the thing that was asleep ?

LRRbot: Yong-Su, Verdant Weaver (Common) [hand: 3, reserve: 3] | Character — Druid [3/3/3] | {J} If you control two or more Plants, I gain 2 boosts[]. (Cards in Reserve are not controlled. A boost is a +1/+1/+1 counter. Remove it when it leaves the Expedition zone.)
goombalax: Judge! Mushrooms aren't plants!
kusinohki: how are the center cards decided? just those 3 cards shuffled or is there a larger deck and 3 cards are chosen randomly from it? (I'm assuming the end points are set)
LRRbot: Yong-Su, Verdant Weaver (Rare) [hand: 2, reserve: 2] | Character — Druid [2/2/2] | {J} If you control two or more Plants, I gain 2 boosts[]. (Cards in Reserve are not controlled. A boost is a +1/+1/+1 counter. Remove it when it leaves the Expedition zone.)
KeytarCat: @kusinohki Knowing nothing, I've decided that this set is the Final Destination, No Items set that is used in tourney
Divergent_Worldlines: I believe it's the same three cards, just shuffled.
LoadingReadyRun: are there any heroes with more then 2 landscape and 2 reserve?
SeismicLawns: @LoadingReadyRun not right now but they're leaving the design space open
Divergent_Worldlines: Not yet, but since the'ye printed on the card, there theoretically could be in future.
dasdardly: this is pretty fiddly isn't it
PMAvers: There *are* alt-art region cards coming in the next set where they're more snowy, but they have the same element breakdown

LoadingReadyRun: Deity, but also boring
goombalax: I've seen that anime
Mazrae: James, what does the fox say to you?
HadesLeprechaun: I wonder if there's a convenient, Number display way to show how close either side is to winning, the game pieces are quite small and busy artwork to see at a glance
PMAvers: There *is* some ramp in Bravos (the red faction)
KeytarCat: @HadesLeprechaun It also has the same problem as Skyrim health bars!
PMAvers: But they also have stuff that involves blowing up your own mana orbs
SeismicLawns: the competitive muna deck also has a card that ramps
LRRbot: Ordis Spy (Rare) [hand: 3, reserve: 2] | Character — Citizen [2/2/2] | {H} [Sabotage]. (Discard up to one target card from a Reserve.) {R} Create an [Ordis Recruit 1/1/1] Soldier token in my Expedition.
SeismicLawns: though that's through cost reduction
LRRbot: Daughter of Yggdrasil (Common) [hand: 3, reserve: 3] | Character — Plant [5/5/3] | {H} Target opponent draws a card.
LoadingReadyRun: @HadesLeprechaun we were talking about some kind of overlay to better show the position of the hero and companion and the elements

Dog_of_Myth:
Mazrae: saw that coming
Kentosaurus: James retiring champ: all is as it should be
kusinohki: overlay thought - an ongoing sum total of the area strengths. no idea how difficult that would be though...
LoadingReadyRun: I guess there isn't the equivalent of legends in this
circusofkirkus: James is a Disney adult
MilkInBags:
james wants no challenge in his game or he's gonna scream 
PMAvers: Also it probably helps that you can cast cards twice due to reserves, so burning cards as mana hurts a little less?
SeismicLawns: who cares about Ada Lovelace
destiny_cloud: Is the yellow colored cost number different from a white colored cost number?
KeytarCat: Yellow text marks upgrade text
Divergent_Worldlines: Yellow colored text is the differences between common and rare.
destiny_cloud: Oh I see, thanks.
KeytarCat: Cards have variants and you can only have so many of the rares in your deck
KeytarCat: I've been thinking about it like Slay the Spire upgrades
PMAvers: One could say you have so much... influence... to spend on your deck to upgrade cards with, or to buy faction-shifted cards from other colors.
destiny_cloud: Is that you, Netrunner?
KeytarCat: Somehow I've never cared about Netrunner. Honestly a little surprised
KeytarCat: So I only know it's cyberpunk and deep
destiny_cloud: @KeytarCat Elite hacker vs megacorporation with a fair bit of bluffing involved on the side of the megacorp
LRRbot: Akesha & Taru | Yzmir Hero [reserve: 2, landmarks: 2] | {T} : [After You]. You can only activate this if you are the first player. (End your turn as if you had played a card. You may still play cards later this Day.)
SeismicLawns: fun fact! The winner of the die roll HAS to go first!
Lysander_salamander: so cute
YeomanAres: Just one more thing
PMAvers: So that's the thing, you *have* to normally play a card on your turn, otherwise you take the hard pass.
LRRbot: Kojo & Booda | Bravos Hero [reserve: 2, landmarks: 2] | At Noon — If you are the first player, create a [Booda 2/2/2] Companion token in your Companion Expedition.

Spooky_Noises: Oh damn altered! I love this game so much, how are we liking it?
SnowBunSarah: Me, playing my Muna anchor deck that keeps a character out the entire game
PMAvers: It's nice that you can't really go all-in on a specific element, you're going to need a bit of all of it. Unless you're Kraken'ing.

shendaras:
DireMacTire: GG
Orxolon: and what do we think/feel about comebacks in this game?are they possible?,you always have a chance?or is it like Lorcana,at one point opp is just out of reach?
SnowBunSarah: @orxolon Depends on the faction. Some factions are better late game, some factions tend to be better early
PMAvers: I mean, Wheeler was on the back foot that game, and was able to push back and took it
DireMacTire: yup, also with unique cards, you can have some cards from other factions in your faction colors
DireMacTire: Also, you can draft in this game as well
Spooky_Noises: @DireMacTire notably uniques can only be in their rare colours, but yea every card is in a second colour
JDogg2K4: Looking forward to the marketplace opening, to get the end of the starter decks printed off and have a battle box
DireMacTire: also $90 usd for a whole box arent bad
DireMacTire: ain't*
BrowneePointz: immediately hate it
JDogg2K4: deckbuilding limits rares/uniques per deck as well
Jadaris: so like keyforge decks
JDogg2K4: so you can't have a deck of uniques for instance
PMAvers: Yeah, all the Uniques I've seen so far have been interesting sidegrades.
KeytarCat: It's like Vault of the Void gems
DireMacTire: 15 rares, and I think 5 unique per deck?
Spooky_Noises: 3 uniques per deck
DireMacTire: yeah 3, my B
DireMacTire: ASMODEUS yeahhh
Spooky_Noises: from what ive seen the 'meta' is basically you just run a playset of uniques with the same effect.
SnowBunSarah: Costs and stats are easy to tweak
Spooky_Noises: like all jellyfish that let them sac themselves
TheWriterAleph: eh, one character has been wide-open cracked, they've already banned it
DireMacTire: 1000 split between 6 colors
SnowBunSarah: @diremactire Only split between 2 colors. Each character can only occur in two factions
DireMacTire: really, thought some are more than 2
Spooky_Noises: Ben put it best though; it is such a polarising thing, its a little hard to sell people on it
PMAvers: I think it means you also get to play around more with deck-building too, where you might try to figure out something that actually works with that unique you pulled instead of just net-decking.
TheAwkes: I'm sure there's going to be some amount of chasing best-in-slot.
Veshnikard: I hear unique and think serialized card not just a mythic
Orxolon: Kaiba has a Blue eyes white dragon
Spooky_Noises: @Veshnikard its essentially serialized since its truely unique
SnowBunSarah: @theawkes There certainly was for the card that later got errata because the ability was too strong
DireMacTire: yeah, but when their marketplace and trades open, I dont think it will be as bad as serialized
JDogg2K4: 1 card(Robin hood) has been errataed
SeismicLawns: it got errata to be a trinisphere instead of a thalia
lamina5432: gnight
Spooky_Noises: Limited is awesome, 3 colours!
DireMacTire: also you can get special promos for play events, but winning doesnt matter, just showing up does
TheWriterAleph: 30 in limited
LordZarano: Personally I like the weird blob. Much better than the ball and stick they had before
PMAvers: I mean, there's a empty slot on the schedule this month, maybe some bonus card game streams? winkyface
Juliamon: LordZarano I feel the same way honestly
Mai_Andra: That's just Canada, right? Two whole cities and a vast wilderness...
NotCainNorAbel:
500
Juliamon: the ball and stick was *SO* dumb, at least they had a reasonable excuse for the bean blob
Jadaris: anyone know how many drinks Wheeler had?
Mai_Andra: hear me out: 400 cards
BrowneePointz: YEAAAAAAAAAA
BrowneePointz: RIGHT IN TIME FOR F4!
BrowneePointz: Reed is SO HOT
DireMacTire: also if you buy a box, you get 2 of each hero pretty much guarantee
BrowneePointz: Sue is SO HOT
Mai_Andra: Would you rather play with 10 40-card decks or 40 10-card decks?
BrowneePointz: they're adding them in batches
LPS_97: 2 of them this friday right?
JDogg2K4: They adding the robot?
BrowneePointz: Reed and Sue and then Johnny and Ben
BrowneePointz: Season 1 Part 1 then Part 2

Cptasparagus: kid richards who just happesn to be the most OP mutant ever?
BrowneePointz: No longer a Mutant
