Power Cards

Post by feliss3366 »

Can someone tell me how to use the King Power card? I figured out the other two but not the K.

K power is to disrupt 2 completed lines (or a square if possible) of an opponent.
However, it's much harder to use than other powers as using K power requires discarding K naturally and the next player can pick the discarded K up.

Re: Power Cards - KING TO XCHANGE 2 CARDS

Post by ArenaRTer »

I now stop pllaying this game any longer. For me this rule, ruins the game fun completly. Getting a King in final move, even when the game was finished by Player 1 with turning the last card, is imho so annoying, it kills any kind of strategy and gaming fun, you can do whatever you want, have an excellent score and then sheer pure stupid luck gives your opponent the king and all effort/work you have done is blown away to a huge pile.... an more than frustrating "option" a pure fun and game killer imo.

You can always opt to not play with a specific option.

I'm meanwhile Realtime Arena-only player (whenever i got my elo100 for a game), there you must live with the options/rules set.

Gurus decide the game format, so you have to either persuade gurus or live with it.
It's an inherent flaw of the Arena mode, not the game itself.

As a player who plays this frequently, I do believe there is skill in considering the chance of each card hitting at any time including the K. I agree with ufm gurus decide. If you play enough, you get a vote.
