Cardiators V1.0

Cardiators V1.0ce
(contest entry edition)
Currently entered in the Hiveworkshop contest: Paired Mapping Contest #1.

This is a full version of the map that i'm letting people test and play, after the competitions over i'm going to start working on it again with big plans on introducing a new twist to the battle system that will make this game very addicting.

The map features:
-75 Monsters or "cards", 20 Minigames.
-Custom models and icons from Hiveworkshop.com and wc3campaigns.net
-A unique Battle Randomization system that took over 2 months to develop, designed by me and my wife.
-Idea loosely based off of Mario Party 8's "Cardiators".

The map size is relatively small and downloads quick on b-net, but all official updated versions will be uploaded here.

Let me know what you think, and take a look at the competetion, hope we win :D

-Dedicated to my wife who put so much effort into helping me create this.

Its very weird, ive started a "math minigame" and first comp asked me 60 / 5 , so u know, 12, duuuh, but when i stepped on the pannel, few sec later my hero moved back. confusing. Right answer, wrong answer?
Than 3a+12=21 . Search a. As far as i know 9 / 3 is still 3, but comp didnt think so :D It was a wrong answer... weird

I liked the map for being new, fresh and creative. But i dislike the combat system, since you do have so few possibilities. You can just hope to get a good card and then play it right away. So it´s completely random. When i first played the map the same guy could fight 6 rounds and won every round, due to good cards he draw. Since you do not have any possibility to improve your card deck (think Magic: The Gathering) you can just pray.

ALL card games are based on luck, and honestly I've never played Magic: The Gathering, but that can't be anymore different than any other card game like Yu-gi-oh and Pokemon. The thing with this game is, you're right, you can't improve your card deck, BUT everyone is playing from the same deck. So in this case, everyone is on an even playing field. The thing that you can do to improve your winnings is buy shop cards. If you haven't figure it out by now, you gain money by winning minigames so then you can purchase these cards. We want everyone to have a fair chance at winning and have fun. What would be fun if you always win and the other person always lose and vice versa if you had your own "improved" deck?
