Parasite and Headless Horseman

I wanted to make sure I’m clear here, is parasite supposed to uber wreck Headless Horseman?!

Just finished a one-shot and a minion put on parasite right before it died, making my head come back to me. None of us had any removal, so when my turn came again, I had to take 4 dreadful and 3 grim pursuit (7) total damage, and it just kept going until after about 18 total damage from it we finally got a removal.

This seems a little busted from the application from an epic minion that was long, long dead.

My continuing Dice Throne project

My wife and I have been playing Dice Throne for a bit, mainly Adventures, and we've been proper addicted! We have almost all of the regular DT characters, and getting close to having all of the Marvel ones too.

I had been looking for a new dev project, so I decided to try building Dice Throne as a web game. It is 100% vanilla HTML, CSS and JavaScript, no framework, which has been a fun constraint. The hard part has not been the dice or the turn structure, it has been the hero logic and writing an AI opponent that plays sensibly instead of just mashing its biggest ability.

My son has been my playtester, which is the best part of the whole thing. He is pretty good at finding some of the edge cases I didn't handle. Shadow Thief is in a solid spot now and actually feels like the real hero to play against.

Anyway, thought I'd share, I can't wait for the Nexus heroes!!!

Help with Mad King for our Adventure (Alchemist/Deadpool)

My wife and I are playing on Nice Throne, and the Mad Ling is punishing us, even with no kings hand tokens. We’ve lost twice, with my Alchemist really getting punished with parasite tokens.

On parasite, my understanding is that all my potions will trigger damage and if I can get it off somehow, with either a cleansify or other ability, then we take 3 und dmg.

So with all my potions up and no way to remove it during my next upkeep, I’m just taking like 5-10 damage, then remove it and take another 3 all for the cost of an easy to apply token.

Seems pretty busted and makes the adventure almost bricked.
