Batter Up! is a Wish Card that was first seen and printed in the Grotto Beasts! Trading Card Game. The card art references the Jerma Baseball stream

The Card

Card Effect

Choose an awake Beast you have in play
and it rests. Then, flip a number of coins
equal to that Beast's power. If all coins
flipped land on "heads", score cards
equal to that Beast's power. Otherwise,
draw a card.

Rules and Rulings

Universal
  • You do not call the coin flips. The card effect looks for the landing state of the coin(s) that are flipped.
  • For the purpose of card effects that are based on winning or losing the flip, you can only win or lose coin flips if you call them.

Information

Development

Written by Game Designer J. Evan Raitt:

I liked the idea that there could be a coin flipping card that could potentially win you the game if you had crazy luck. Using Power as a specific limiter, it gives the impression that you can pick one of your Beasts to smash a home run and potentially win the game off of it.

Trivia

  • The determination to include cards revolving around baseball were at times added, illustrated and designed before the Baseball Stream's broadcast.
  • The probability of flipping 10 coins and getting Heads for each of them is 0.1%. Good luck!
