The future is now. Its time the community dumps lackey and embraces its TTS overlord. TTS is so much more realistic, easy to use and friendlier to the player.

Subscribe to my channel people, that's all I ask in return for giving everyone the how to primer (and also so if/when I do more trek videos you'll be notified!)

If you can find me two others to join you, who wouldn't mind trying it, i'd run a tournament using it exclusively.

Subscribed. I'll have to watch the video later so I can figure out how to turn piles of all the cards into an actual deck.

And hopefully during game play without literally all the cards, it's a lot less resource intensive. I need to buy some more RAM for my current rig one of these days.

Can you give me a sample of the JSON format involved in these deck objects? I'm hoping it's title-based like Lackey, but it's probably still a solvable problem if it's Arbitrary TTS ID Number-based.

What are the actual features that make this better (or have potential to be better)? Destiny needs dice = it needs TTS but when I'm playing destiny online I did myself missing lackey.

I'd be interested to know more about scripting capabilities.

Of course it looks awesome and lackey does have lots of rough edges so I'm glad someone is pushing the boundaries.

Im not super computer literate so I don't know. I know that there are explanations of json format out there and json conversion programs.

TTS is WAYYYYY more stable than lackey. Ie - tts has never crashed in me. It does get buggy on rare occasions if u and ur opp start hitting to many hot keys too quickly at the same time. That's the only big issue, but I'll go over how to do a cheat around save of the board.

Its RNG function is better. When u hit r and it randomized I've seen it succumb way less to the bunching that lackey does.

You can control cards better in tts.

The whole enterprise feels closer to playing like irl.

Eh thats when its on sale, I am not opposed to its usage, but I am opposed to adding a paygate to play online. If folks both have TTS and want to use it thats awesome, but saying you need to go buy xyz just doesn't quite feel right

This used to be a ccg where you had to pay money to obtain the cards to play it. So you couldn't show up to a tourney and play unless you had paid money. So i'm not following your objection. Feels like peeps are spoiled on playing a "free" game. (That isn't free either if you spend money to print the v cards so again, not following.

I answer all the questions brought forward so far. do some demonstrations and then talk to bavariandata open letter style about how I think the table lcars should be organized for a cleaner, more functional look.

Thanks for the videos! I was a little skeptical at first but this looks like it will be a lot of fun.

Once everything is fine tuned, I think this would be a great way to get new and returning players back into the game.
