Small Corrections/clarifications: -"REAP" and "ACTION" are entirely seperate ways to " USE" creature cards. Doing any action that "uses" a creature or artifact exhasts that card. Doing an action does not net the player any effects in addition to those printed on the card. - If you have a card of a house not on your identity card in your hand or battlefield, you can name that house to use and play that turn. You may also name no house to do nothing if forced to by card effects.
I believe that second point got modified in the May 2019 rules update (images-cdn.fantasyflightgames.com/filer_public/f9/a2/f9a28865-cd96-4f36-97e5-0f8ea75288c0/keyforge_rulebook_v9-compressed.pdf): it now specifically says that when choosing a house for the turn, it must be a house from their identity card. If a card's effect requires naming a house, the rule is a little looser; it must be a house from their identity card or they control a card that belongs to that house. So, you cannot name "no house", and you cannot name a house that you don't have anything of, when a card effect forces you to.
You know what i dislike about this How To Play series? No equivalent of Quickmatch. There are stuffs you cant teach without giving the students examples
i actually dont mind it being separated. often im untypically german and not excited to read a manual. having the video being only about the rules, gives me an overview on what to expect and doesnt waste any of my data plan
So as they explained, reaping with a creature. When you ‘reap’ with a creature what you’re doing from a game mechanics sense is exhausting it, and gaining 1 Æmber in the process. The other way is some cards give you Æmber just for playing them l, as indicated by the icon appearing in the top left hand (not all cards do that). I’m actually not sure if they mentioned that or not. Im gonna check the video again now because I don’t think they did. Some creature have fight/reap abilities that also net additional Æmber. Some actions and creatures also have the ability to steal it from your opponent.
I gotta ask. Is there anyone else that misses Tabletop and Wil Wheaton? I dont even know who Becca is, but her voice is kind of annoying. I used to put Tabletop on in the background while I was working and just listened to the new games that they were playing. Ever since it kind of got resurrected, I haven't wanted to do that. I do like the idea of the separated rules videos though. That is a nice touch.
I like Becca as she usually has much enthusiasm, but I do miss TableTop dearly, it is not even remotely the same. We got game exposure and entertainment ... now game exposure, so better than nothing, because learning about new games ... "Play more games!"
@@SwordAgainstChaos See, in that I beg to disagree. Yeah, she is definitely attractive, but just because she is attractive doesnt mean I want to watch and/or listen to her.
@@squattingheads just a lot of stolen mechanics with different names slapped on them. It seems pretty obvious to me although I don't know how copyright law works when it comes to game design, it's just that the glaring rip offs were funny to me is all.
@@DavetheLeg When it comes to game design, mechanics are often fine to copy otherwise no one would ever be able to create new games. However, this game does have major differences from your average ccg, tcg, or lcg. Those being the unique deck aspect, instead of killing the other player you are trying to gain amber, and no land or energy mechanic. At the same time, it isn't surprising that there are similar mechanics. The same designer made both games .
Philigan87 haha, most that have played the game would say the opposite. But it’s understandable, magic is the greatest game ever known to man. All other games are trash and should be burned. All we need is magic. I get you.
Yeah, no. KeyForge is a waste of money. Just because you are buying full decks as opposed to booster packs, doesn't mean it's any less of a scuzzy money-hungry CCG.
You should try the game. I've personally had lots of fun with it, and I bought decks for my family for Christmas. There is nothing wrong with making money, but fortunately you don't have to buy a CCG if you don't want to.
collection games have no addicition effect on me either but the game itself is quite some fun. the rediculus combos will have you rofl alone. and in contrary to mtg you will have fun for at least 3 evenings with one deck. instead of three games. since you first have to understand how to play it. its easy to pick up and thechain mechanic is a nice balance for power gamers
Your not wrong, I bought six decks and one is clearly more powerful than the rest, and a second one is pretty good. Some of the others just *shakes head* didn't come together. I got invited to a XMas dinner somewhat last minute and wanted to give them Keyforge, but the local store was sold out so they inherited my subpar decks, but they did get enough DIY tokens to run two games simo (and I don't even know if they'll try the game) so they made out in the end. Not sure how you can force casual to log games and thereby generate an equalizing amount of chains.
I don't consider it a CCG. Maybe it's a CCG if you have terrible will power and OCD for collecting things that aren't meant to be collected because you feel the need to try to be better than everyone else. But, that's more a personal issue.

Also, creatures aren't discarded they are marked for destruction, then destroyed
This was perfect. Have my first event in a few hours and needed a 6 minute refresher.
I love the way you have fun talking about the games. You are a bit goofy, but in a good way
In love with the idea if unique decks.
Thanks Becca - awesome job in explaining the game and your enthusiasm is always appreciated ;)
Nice summary! Looking forward to seeing some gameplay videos too.
i just got a deck recently, so neat!
Loving this game! Great work, Becca!
An upload today!? What a nice Christmas gift.
Looking forward to seeing the gameplay video

Goofy and funny are good things. Never lose that

Becca is so fire
I’m here for the sweet, sweet... Ah, never mind. You’re awesome, Becca. Merry Christmas!
4:20 is it possible the gamemakers are critical role fans?
Or Noddy Toyland Detective fans?
Thanks
Cool game! love Becca 3>
Such an amazing game!
Power ups increases life too?
I want to know this
One Hundred and Forty Ninth.
Just call it main step Amy

Where's the "I'm here because of Beca" person? I worry.
I'm here because of Taras Basiuk ... said no one ever
It’s you
She is too masculine for me...
great screen reading skills ;)
Can you do a d&d campaign with the players as dragons

Just watch the next vid where they play the game.
Fourth
These rules makes 0 sense. How do you get more aember? Whats the point of fighting?

Her hotness overrides her annoying voice.

Anyone else? Oh, just like one person every single freaking video for months on end. Congrats. You're that guy for this vid.
@@jaypob I never really comment on videos, and I honestly have yet to get more than 2 minutes through one of these.
@@SwordAgainstChaos See, in that I beg to disagree. Yeah, she is definitely attractive, but just because she is attractive doesnt mean I want to watch and/or listen to her.
Becca...watz her full name
Thiz one iz awesome too
Becca Scott Kerns.
@@nightcatarts god bless ya man!
I'm here to look at Becca.
Thanks for the info, btw youre stunning as hell !
Bring back table top. (with Wil Wheaton)
No.
@@jaypob why not
thank you, I just came REALLY hard watching Becca with the sound down - it's a Christmas Miracle!
PAID PROMOTIONAL CONTENT! A COMMENT SECTION OF *OMG IT'S A FEEEEMALE DURRR* ...it must be Geek & Sundry
who are you referring too?
@@squattingheads i added one just so he makes sense
Someone complaining about the content... it must be Sellinga coerwa.
PATHETIC TROLL OP! A COMMENT OF OMG I HATE OTHER PEOPLE'S JOY DURRR ...it must be Sellinga coerwa
hot girl cool game? i guess just hot girl
Good but don’t ham it up, makes me suspect you’re more of an actor than a gamer geek. More of a straight delivery would be better.
This video is a year old dude 😂
@@Xeyyakkenn I am the Necromancer
Does Wizards own this game? If not, I smell a lawsuit LOL.
why?

just FYI, both MtG and KeyForge were designed by the same designer
completely different gamestyles. and its hard to not reuse certain terms in certain types of games.
like "saving throw" in rpgs.
still perfer Wil Wheaton from tabletop
You lost me at “flank”. Just looks like magic without the fun.
