      Well LoR have allways had some really weird mechanics and wording with some cards, but it kinda makes sense, since it cost 1 more, it does one more damage, still weird af, specially if you've ever played MTG xDDD
      PS: I think thermo should have on it's cost something like (-) instead of (0), that way it'd be understanded way better that it allways costs 0.

      I mean if it worked the way Mogwai expected it to, Thermo would never be playable. It would always cost 1 more mana than you have. I imagine they specifically had to code for this interaction, and chose to make it overridden in this case so that you don't just make a card useless while a 2 mana unit is on the board.

      Thermo does not deal more dmg with its cost reduced (with progress day as example) because 1) it already cost 0, and cards can't have negative cost 2) It empties your mana and deals as much dmg. In fact you don't gain one more mana thanks to progress day.
      I agree with the other comment that says there are two parts in the spell : its mana cost (often 0) and the dmg it deals. We often think "deals as much dmg as my mana" because it's the main scenario but it's a shortcut. It's a spell, as all spell first you pay the cost and then it applies its effect. Then you pay 0 (or 1 if augmented) and then you empty your mana and deal as much dmg as the quantity spent.

    I think the Stoney Suppressor/Thermogenic Beam interaction is hard coded to be whatever mana is left in your pool because Thermo would never be able to be physically played if Stoney was on the field. It would always be 1 more than the total mana you have available, therefore it would be dead in your hand til Stoney was removed

  • @Nintendo165

    Thermo and stony's interactions make complete sense on paper. If the card reads "to play, spend all mana." in otherwords he can still cast it whenever (even on 0 mana, it just wont deal any dmg) which is the way the card is just designed. If that was the case and you have it work the way mogwai thinks, the card can never be used vs that deck (because you can never have 1 more mana than you normally should; including ramp decks because the wording on card says spend all mana, meaning all that you have + 1).

      Correct me if im wrong but, If you use targons peak and it hits the thermo it will say it costs 0 but that doesnt mean it will not use any mana. Its in the card text so everything thats logical from using mana is thrown out the window for this card.

    The Thermogenic Beam vs Stony Suppressor is really interesting because you shouldn't be able to cast it at all. TB says "To play, spend all your mana" and Stony says "ALL spell cost one more" so now TB cost is all your mana + 1, but you don't have all your mana + 1, so you shouldn't be able to play it.

    • @leoprotettore5862
      @leoprotettore5862 3 роки тому

      That's not correct. You assume that TB cost is all your mana pool, but in reality it costs 0 mana. What that card does is: pay 0 mana to cast it, THEN it empties your mana pool to deal that amount of damage.
      So, Stony Suppressor is not a direct counter to TB, because that card is always 0 mana regardless of how many mana you have.

    @GearyDigit 3 роки тому

    There's two possible interpretations for Thermobeam, neither of which are accurately displayed in the game.
    1. Thermobeam has a base cost of 0, plus an additional play cost of 'spend all your remaining mana' in the same manner of Spinning Axe's and Get Excited!'s discard play cost. Obviously this means it's not affected by cost reduction since the base cost is still 0, but it should mean that cost increases cause it to deal an equivalent amount of damage less since the increase is added onto the initial 0. This is what the card's actual text implies is the case.
    2. Thermobeam has a base cost of X while in your hand, where X is your current mana. This means it would be affected by both cost reductions and increases and have its damage lowered and raised accordingly. Additionally, this would make it unplayable if it has any net cost increase on it, as its would cost more mana than you would ever have available to play. This is closer to how it behaves in the game, as with Heimer and Tri-beam interactions.
    In either case, Mogwai's Stony Suppressor would be safe, as in the former it only would've taken two damage and in the latter Thermobeam couldn't be cast at all. RIOT should adjust the card's text and/or interactions to make it consistent.

    Normally: 0 Cost, To play spend all mana (3), Damage = mana paid (3).
    Suppressed: 1 Cost, To play spend all mana (2), Damage = mana paid (1+2).

  • @MalleusImperiorum
    @MalleusImperiorum 3 роки тому

    Thermogenic Beam's cost is a bit misleading. In your hand it always costs 0, even with Stony Suppressors on board (the number which you see in the top left corner of the card is the amount of mana you are going to spend), so you can play it even with 0 mana left and a Stony Suppressor in play.
    Its effect is draining all your mana and then deals damage equal to the mana spent. Basically, its cost is a part of its effect, and Stony Suppressors don't change any effects. Otherwise you would not be able to ever play a Beam with a Suppressor in play (it would always cost all your mana + 1).
    However, after you play it, its "cost" shown on board changes if a Stony Suppressor is in play (which can be considered a bug).

    A Lvl 2 Viktor used Spell thief of Thermogenic beam.
    When i used it with 9 mana, it deals 8 damage and spends 8 mana as well.

    My personal belief of how thermo should work is this:
    Normally, it costs 0 to *cast* , then its effect occurs, which drains *all* your mana, and dealing as much damage.
    If its cost gets reducted, it still costs 0 to *cast* since that is its cost, then it drains your mana and deals the same damage as normal
    Now if its cost is increased, it should cost 1 to *cast* and then its effect occurs, draining your remaining mana, just like normal, except now it deals less damage because of the starting cost which doesn't count for its effect

    I think Thermo being usable is justified. This interaction imo is much more fair even if it is not the most intuitive thing in the world. If you are the opponent, you would "intuitively think" that thermo simply acts normally and uses all the mana instead of becoming a card you can never play without other forms of removal. Imagine on turn 10 with 3 thermo with a single stony on board and your three cards are simply unplayable (after using several 3 mana mistics and 4 mana monkeys trying to kill that stony but they just plays a new one), which is overly unfair for the thermo player. I like interactions being more fair than intuitive, hence I like this interaction.
