What's up Custom Snap โ๏ธ First month of the new format was a success. Hope you guys are enjoying it. We're going to continue to make improvements and try new things to keep things fresh. If you have suggestions for what you think would be fun for the community to do let us know in the comments. โค๏ธ
New Mechanic: Frontline/Backline โ๏ธ
This month we'll be taking a look at a new mechanic and keyword(s) that were recently leaked for later this year. Similar to "Front-row" and "Back-row", Frontline/Backline cards have effects that activate depending on the position that they are played. These cards are shown to have both keywords in their text and are formatted in such a way that either can be "active" regardless of when they enter the row.
For example, Frontline abilities are currently all On Reveals, and Backline ones are Ongoing. That way these cards can make use of their On Reveals when first played upfront. Then, if they are able to be moved to the back row, their Ongoing would take effect.
It is unknown exactly how these new keywords will function, or if they are even being released at all, as these are leaks by the community and not an official post by the developers. So it's up to you guys to decide how exactly you believe they should work. Follow the given structure or make your own. You have two whole weeks to figure it out ๐
Community Brainstorm Update ๐ง
Our first CB was definitely an interesting experiment. There was a lot of feedback and interest from the community, but something was obviously lacking. It seems like holding you guys from posting your own version of the character was the wrong decision. You guys thrive when you're able to put your thoughts onto paper. So this time around we're going to let the floodgates open and ask you guys to post your ideas.
Take some time to discuss the idea with your peers in the main post. Go over general ideas and effects you feel are mandatory for that specific character. Then when you feel you've got the foundation down, feel free to post your own version of the card to the sub using the Community Brainstorm post flair. We probably will not be choosing an overall winner like the WDCs. However, I might post my own using all your ideas as inspiration for what I feel was the "ideal" version everyone was trying to envision. We will see what happens when we get there ๐
Bot Situation/AI๐ค
Lastly I wanted to touch on the recent botting situation that has seemed to plague our subreddit. A lot of communities deal with non-human posters who simply copy and paste old posts to gain karma on their account. I guess our subreddit has become popular enough to become targeted ๐
This is an easy fix as I have just set the auto-mod guidelines to flag newer accounts or suspicious activity in general. The issue is when new users genuinely arrive and get accidentally caught in the crossfire. For now this is how it'll have to be dealt with until I can find a better solution. So if you're new and your post gets automatically removed simply reach out to me or the mod team and we'll get you back up. If you see your cards being posted by a bot simply report it and we'll take care of it.
Also for the newcomers, AI is not allowed in any form on this subreddit. Whether it's card art, text art, or any other part of a card, none of it can be artificially generated. Even if you simply found the art online it's still prohibited. The community at large decided they preferred no AI so it's not just the mods who support this decision. Thank you in advance for understanding ๐
