Boss Fight Misc: VS The King in Binds - Power Exchange

[CarrotyReaper]

Maybe but they’d probably have strong abilities to compensate

[Geyde]

@ElizaThePsycho

Service even in Death: Each Servant that dies will grant the King in Binds a single Power that had not been taken from the pool. The King may choose which power, but if they leave it up to chance they do not have to pay the Cost for whatever power they get. The King may not utilize these powers until they actually join the fight.

it’s possible that they have abilities In Addition to this

[Geyde]

but i will ask

[Geyde]

I threw like 5 questions at willow let’s see

[Geyde]

I think supermajority of players at >= 60 starting hp is for the best

[Geyde]

regardless of boss abilities, burst down nearly all servants phase 1

@ElizaThePsycho

Totemic Call - Spend 10 Energy to summon a random totem from the following list. All totems have 10 Health. There may be an infinite amount of Totems out at any given time, even multiple of the same type. (The totems count as an additional allied player, except when calculating win conditions.)

1. Searing Totem: Deals 5 damage to an enemy each round.
2. Healing Totem: Heals each ally 3 Health at the start of each round. May not heal beyond the starting value. (Starting value is the amount of Health you have immediately after the Power Exchange)
3. Taunt Totem: An enemy has all of their single-target attacks redirected to the Taunt totem. (The Power Taunt takes priority)
4. Mana Totem: Grants 5 additional Energy to every ally at the start of each round. (This Energy vanishes at the end of each round as usual)

@ElizaThePsycho

Doppelgangar - Burn 10: Copy an action an ally is performing this round. You must still pay costs for that action as normal.

totemic call can go infinite, and we can make it kinda legit with this

[Geyde]

this = doppelgangar

[Geyde]

burn is 25%
oh my god we can cook with this
INFINITE HEALING

[CarrotyReaper]

Immortality the boss won’t know what hit them (we could stall by leaving 1 enemy alive)

[Geyde]

that seemingly works and would be a good play

[Geyde]

basically burst down all but one enemy for phase 1
then go infinite with totem memes

[CarrotyReaper]

Yeah

[Geyde]

I do acknowledge that this is super fucking lame

[Geyde]

but also it’s free

[CarrotyReaper]

Yeah it is tbf but counterpoint : we need more totems, the stack must grow

[Geyde]

infinite healing totems to outlive burn
then infinite mana totem
then scale training arc to 10 by attacking teammates (lmao)

[Geyde]

@ElizaThePsycho

Bandages: The King in Binds evens the playing field. No Hero may be dealt more than 35 Damage in a single turn. The King may not be dealt more than 80 Damage in a single turn. Does not include Burn damage, and does not apply to the Servants (but does apply to the damage they deal).

haha

@ElizaThePsycho

Hot Potato - At the start of each round, pass this power to an ally who has not held the hot potato. If there are no valid targets, you give it to a single enemy, dealing 40 UNBLOCKABLE damage and discarding this power. If someone dies while carrying the hot potato, it explodes, and a random living ally also dies in the explosion.

[Geyde]

it’s really easy to say it doesn’t bypass since block could be said to specifically refer to the attack → shields interaction

[Geyde]

regardless of team setup, we’re going to want totem player and doppel player
totem is very good even ignoring cheese strategies due to taunt totem

[Garfooled]

Since this is a team game, y’all can just tell me what I should buy. I don’t mind taking any role
