Title: New Cards: Theatre and Inventor
Post by: Gubump on December 15, 2015, 04:46:33 pm
We playtested these two cards a while ago, but I never got around to posting them for some reason.

Inventor:
+1 Card
+1 Action
+$1

When you gain this, put it and a card you have in play on top of your deck.
Cost: $5
Action

Theatre:
+2 Cards
+2 Actions

When you gain this, put your deck into your discard pile. You can't buy this unless you have at least 4 differently named cards in play.
Cost: $6
Action

While it's tricky, I'm pretty sure this can create an infinite loop. I think it can be done with King's Court, Procession, Graverobber and Scrying Pool, although the details still need some work.

You just need 3xKC, 2xProcession, 2xGraverobber, and 6xInventor.  Some of those could be in your deck to start since you will draw.  It is very similar to a recently posted modification of feast that could trash a different action from play.

play:
King's Court 0:
    King's Court 1:
        Procession 1->  3xInventor (+6 cards, +6 Actions, +$6, gain 3 $5 cards, Trash 3 Inventor)
        Graverobber 1-> Gain 3xInventor on top of deck, also topdeck KC1, Proc1, and GR1 from play.
        King's Court 2:
            Procession 2-> 3xInventor (as above, plus draws the cards we topdecked)
            Graverobber 2-> Gain 3xInventor on top of deck, also topdeck KC2, Proc2, and GR2

Add +buy token somewhere for infinite buys and buy out the whole supply.

"Just" has never borne so much weight  ;).

Thanks for working that out. I remembered that the loop with KC/Proc/GR was almost enough for the loop, as long as there was a way to get one of the initial KCs back into your deck while still resolving it, but I couldn't remember the specifics.

That's rare enough that I don't think it matters (once you have all of those cards, you've already won).
