I've never played Tarot, but have wanted to. How is it? For context, I've played quite a bit of Spades and some Hearts.
Waiting on a JJBA part 3 tarot deck, that shit would be perfect

Shieeeet son, I've spent all my college years and most of my high school playing this during lunch break.
Where're you from, by the way? Didn't know this was popular outside France.

The rules are simple, but the metagame takes a bit of getting used to. It's most fun when there's five players.
On the whole, I'd say it's not much fun if there's a clear skill gap between players, but I suppose that's true of most card games.

Unfortunately only like a third of the stands in part three at all match their arcana.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

>the moon denotes illusions and mystery
It's a fish-man
>the emperor denotes Structure and authority
it's a gun
>the empress denotes beauty, nature, and fertility
It's a gross wart person.

On the other hand, some of them are spot on. Like Strength being an Orangutang with immense mental power, Strength being all about willpower and courage, not actual physical might.
But yea most of them were just dumb.
>>46139893
Looking back on them I'd say it's about 50/50
>the star denotes creativity and ingenuity.
>Literally every problem it is used to solve is solved with punching.
OP Here.

It's a much simpler trick-taker than, e.g. Bridge, but definitely more complex than Spades or Hearts. Kind of perfect in that respect, really.
This arises from the fact that most of the cards are worthless "filler" and while you get fractional points for taking them in tricks, all the real points are found from taking tricks with face-cards, from playing the Fool (l'excuse), and from tricks containing the Dog (1 trump) and the World (21 trump).

Nebraska and Indiana. Likewise mostly played throughout my schoolin' years (along with similar quantities of Maj Jongg).

Funny enough ,the tarot used in Stardust Crusaderis the Tarot of Marseille and the grampa in my neighborhood play that shit everyday and I hear them saying "haha you can't do shit against The World " and I imagine what would be their reaction if I showed them JJBA

>best card game
But King Mao uses a standard 52 card deck (most of the time). What the fuck are you play- oh you just misspoke. Sorry, carry on with your "almost best" card game.

Dark Blue Moon's user was disguised as someone else.
The Empress manifests as a living organism, not just a ghostly presence.
The Emperor's bullets, rather than moving wherever physics deem they should, go where Hol Horse makes them go, by sheer force of will.

Star Platinum's user uses his own creativity and ingenuity to get himself within punching range, like using its speed to block a knife in the DIO fight but making it look like he was it.
Or look at his poker game against the elder D'arby: his strategy was predicated on a specific bluff: is Star Platinum fast enough to switch out Jotaro's shit hand (engineered by D'arby) for a winning one without D'arby noticing? From there, D'arby had only three outcomes available. Either he calls the bluff, SP isn't fast enough, D'arby wins and wipes out the entire party in one shot OR he calls the bluff, SP is fast enough and DP loses his soul, then DIO kills him for incompetence, OR he folds, DIO kills him for cowardice. Two of three possible futures end in death. D'arby considers himself rightly fucked and ends up admitting defeat inwardly, which is enough for his Stand to turn on him.
This system, along with being rad, makes use of d6 for post-combat resolution rewards.

Tarot cards, not d6. I'm sleepy.
