Suggestion: Mechanic Linking

TappedOut forum

Posted on Feb. 6, 2015, 12:30 p.m. by OutspokenFerret

One thing that I felt would be really useful is the ability to hyperlink keywords and mechanics. Especially when new sets come out with new mechanics, it would make it easier for everyone to understand what a card does when, and may avoid the arguments there are over wording until someone posts an image of the card. This becomes useful because not every card explains what each mechanic does. What do you all think?

I like it. The mouse-over could just be oracle text in a box

4th'd. Even if it's just like a little pop up bubble that has the reminder text and a link to the comprehensive rules.

I do have a question though. Are we limiting these keywords to only those listed in rule 702? (There's 108 keywords there btw...) There are other words that have abilities that have been given names (such as Chroma - Primalcrux, Fiery Bombardment), but do similar but not exactly the same thing. I would think we'd just stick to rule 702

I like this as well. Solid idea OutspokenFerret.

I also like the suggestion by Unforgivn_II about mouse over being oracle text in a box. Seems like it wouldn't be any harder (maybe even easier) than linking card name to image.
