3 Oct 2022:

tl;dr - many cards are stronger now, there are some new cards, there is a new relic, there are more mod settings options, thank you for playing, you are awesome

A bit more love for Kill la Kill: The Mod.

I plan on fixing bugs as I become aware of issues.

Before this update, Ryuko struggled to find good card draw and block generation at higher ascensions. Many cards have been given small buffs and small re-works in order to help compensate for this weakness. Also, I have added 2 new cards and 1 new relic to Ryuko's arsenal.

The other major change in this update is the inclusion of 4 new mod settings:

Toggle custom Ryuko animations, Toggle scaling ascension difficulty, Toggle starting with Senketsu Blood Vial, Replace 'Note For Yourself' event



Blood Drive - Rare Power - 2(1) energy - At the start of your turn, Bloodthirst 1 and draw 1 card. If you lose HP from negative Blood, draw 1 additional card.



Torrent - Rare Skill - 1 energy - Spend 6(5) Blood and obtain one: Bloodfire Spirits, Senketsu Blood Vial, or Corrosive Cocktail. Exhaust. Only usable if you have >= 6(5) Blood. Insert NordVPN joke here.



Hi-Hat - Uncommon Relic - At the start of combat, choose one: Closed, Half, or Open Hi-Hat.

Closed: Whenever you discard a card, gain 3 Block.
Half: For every 3 cards discarded, gain 6 Block now and draw 1 extra card next turn.
Open: For every 3 cards discarded, gain 1 energy next turn and draw 1 extra card next turn.



Toggle custom Ryuko animations - If you "hated the mod because it looks like Ryuko is having a seizure every time you play a card," now you can disable almost all of them. The idle and death animations will still play. Note: this setting affects only Ryuko's sprite skeleton movements. The custom VFX (attack impacts, projectiles, particles, and Seni Soshitsu letters, etc) will not be changed by this setting.

Toggle scaling ascension difficulty - You can now disable the advanced Blood difficulty and play Ascension 8+ without the harsher Blood penalties (less starting Blood, -2 HP from negative Blood)

Toggle start with Senketsu Blood Vial (+4 Blood, +2 Blood Regen) - This option is no longer automatically tied to ascension, it is now a free option to enable or disable on whatever ascension you wish to play. Note: this action is coded into the Kamui Senketsu (Ryuko's starter) relic, so it will not work if you choose to boss swap at Neow. If you're the courageous type to boss swap in the first place, you probably don't need this potion anyway.

Replace 'Note For Yourself' event will replace that event with the 'The Gate' event from my mod. Personally, I think the Note For Yourself event is meme-tier bad, so I created an event to replace it. Note: this event already existed in the mod and already replaced 'Note For Yourself,' but now you have the option to disable it in case you really like 'Note For Yourself'
