Cheap Ass

White Cost Reduction

New 10 Dec 2018 Asked by gman-003 23 Comments

Is Cheap Ass's ability a bend/break for white? I know white can get cost reduction for auras/equipment, and for heavily white tribes like Angels, but nothing else I can see reduces cost of spells in general.


It’s not really a white effect. We bent things a bit for the pun.

Was there ever a "Hard Ass" in Unhinged?


No, but for a blip Cheap Ass was Tight Ass.

Un-Cards Text

No, really, go to the Gatherer page for Cheap Ass. I hardly think this one was intentional.


Gatherer puts down text for Un-cards, but that is not Oracle text.

Are you aware of the Oracle wording on Cheap Ass?


Trick question. There is no Oracle wording for Un-cards.

Gold Digger Collaboration

New 11 Aug 2012 Asked by jtreat 2 Comments

Tell us about working with James Ernest on Gold Digger.


Many years ago James Ernest worked at Wizards of the Coast. He and I were friends. One day, I showed him a little game I had made with a deck of cards. It was a silly, push your luck game. Several years after James left Wizards and started Cheap Ass Games, he called me up and said he wanted to adapt my game into a little game he would give away as a freebie. There was no money it it (as he was giving it away) but I’d get credit on it. I said sure.  Gold Digger is the only non-Wizards game that I have a design credit on.

Cheap Ass Ruling

New 06 Jul 2012 Asked by hakuromatsu-blog 2 Comments

The oracle text for Cheap Ass is "Spells you play cost less to play." What's your ruling on that?


Oracle must not like fractions. The spells cost ½ less (as in a ½ colorless mana).
