Trading Card Girl

I spoke with  Blayne Dickerson, the creator of Mana Source: Evolved! Here are his answers to my questions: Q: Please describe your trading card game! A: You're a god. Your deck is Mortals or resources, as you choose. Divinities rest on Shrines, called forth to aid in combat. You have an Event pile to utilize throughout game play for further assistance. Q: What inspired you to create your own TCG? A: I have always been creating games and have many more to come. But I used to do Friday Night Magic (FNM) every week at a local comic shop. One particular night, I made it to the final four and was 'mana screwed' in two games back-to-back. This is a common occurrence in MTG, but twice is pretty bad luck. Anyway, instead of my opponent telling me "tough break" or "that sucks," he said, "If you don't like it, make your own game." So, I did. Q: What TCGs did you grow up playing as a kid? A: I played Magic: the Gathering, YuGiOh, and Pokemon. I collec

Back then I had one idea for a card game that was called Zodiac Inca

A: I loved playing card games as a kid; I think everyone grew up collecting pokemon cards, and my hobby then jumped into playing Yu-Gi-Oh in tournaments, and playing Hearthstone casually. I think when it came to making my own game though, I was most inspired by the early wave of Youtube indie TCG creators; people like Chaos Galaxy and Wrath of Cores.  Q: What TCGs did you grow up playing as a kid? A: The main game I played as a kid was definitely Yu-Gi-Oh. I hopped in around the start of the third generation (5D’s). Yu-Gi-Oh has definitely affected the type of card games I like. It was f
