    Berserk[edit source]

    Button Notation: B
    BMO Notation: B

    Berserk Dice cannot be used in Skill Attacks, but may make Power Attacks normally.

    Berserk Attack: Berserk Dice also have a second attack, called a Berserk Attack, which is the equivalent of a Speed Attack. In this attack, one die can capture any number of dice which add up exactly to its value. However, unlike in a Speed Attack, after making a Berserk Attack the Berserk Die is replaced by a normal die half its size (rounding fractions up) before it is rerolled.

    Berserk Dice were first published in the Bruno set.


    Chance[edit source]

    Button Notation: ©
    BMO Notation: c

    Chance Dice are random versions of Focus Dice. After the starting roll, if you are not going first, you can re-roll your Chance Dice to attempt to go first. Your opponent can respond by re-rolling one of their Chance Dice, and so on until a player can't possibly go first by re-rolling one of their Chance Dice (or does not wish to re-roll any of their chance dice).

    Chance Dice were used in the Yoyodyne button series.


    Poison[edit source]

    Button Notation: p
    BMO Notation: p

    Poison Dice are worth negative points. If you keep one of your own Poison Dice, you subtract its full size from your score. If you capture an opponent’s Poison Die, subtract half its size.


    Shadow[edit source]

    Button Notation: horizontal line above number, s
    BMO Notation: s

    Shadow Dice are normal in all respects, except that they can not make Power Attacks. Instead, they can make inverted Power Attacks, called Shadow Attacks.

    Shadow Attack: Use one of your Shadow Dice to capture one of your opponent’s dice. The target die must show a value equal to or greater than the attacking die, but within its range.

    For example, a Shadow 12 showing 7 can capture any value between 7 and 12.

    Shadow Dice can make Skill Attacks normally.


    Speed[edit source]

    Button Notation: Red frame, lighting bolt
    BMO Notation: z

    Speed Dice are normal in all respects, except that they have an additional attack called a Speed Attack. This is basically an inverted Skill attack.

    Speed Attack: Use one Speed die to capture any number of your opponent’s dice. The dice you capture must add up exactly to the value of the Speed die. Re-roll the Speed Die and take the captured dice out of play.


    S Swing Dice can be any die between 6 and 20. Swing Dice are allowed to be any integral size between their upper and lower limit, including both ends, and including nonstandard die sizes like 17 or 9. Each player chooses his or her Swing Die in secret at the beginning of the match, and thereafter the loser of each round may change their Swing Die between rounds. If a character has any two Swing Dice of the same letter, they must always be the same size.
