We all hate the flick swish and FIZZLE. Same old sound of Oops you failed. What I suggest is to continue in the humor of the game. So when lets say: SuperJoe casts his heckfire dog. It appears like it worked then when the dog trys to pop out poof! a mouse appears and scamers off screaming. For the Heckafont the elef. steps on a nail and deflaits to nothing at all for his fizzle result. I suggested this to a couple good long time player friends who said "Man! that would be fun cause even though its a negative to not cast your spell you would want to still just see what happens when it does not work. Wouldnt be so obvious either that it worked or not till you seen the spells start up and then go either SIZZLE! or sadly FIZZLE!
No thanks! It's frustrating enough as it is, to think the spell actually cast and then have it fail most of the way through the animation -- not to mention the effort in making all the new animations just for another way to fail -- well, I'd rather the programmers to be spending their time on other things, y'know? :)
No kidding, ElFuego! Here's way to have fun with fizzles. Fizzle like a GrandMaster. Have at least two of the same spell in your hand before you attempt to cast. That way if you fizzle the first time you will have a backup card in your hand already. Want another way? Say, "Excuse ME!" If I have the fizzles, either in game or in real life, I always excuse myself (even if I'm alone). You would be surprised at how much conversation and laughter you can get out of your group if after you fizzle you say, "Pardon me! I must have ate something bad. LOL!"
