I think he is getting confused with the Same and Plus rule.

But then i could be getting confused. It can be a little hard to explain.

Elemental doesn't count for Same or Plus rule, anyway. It takes the original values.

I hate ALL card rules except for Open =P

Imagine a card in the left hand corner with the horizontal numbers 4, 5
Now imagine a card in the right hand corner with horizonal numbers 6, 3
Placing the Carbuncle Card in the middle would utilize its 4, 4 numbers
The plus becomes active because
(4+5) + 4 = 4 + (6+3)

Hope that helps.

That's not how it works. When you place a card, it can only ever use 1 number from a card already placed, not 2.

Say a card in the top left corner has a 5 on the right hand side.
A card in the top right corner has a 5 on the left hand side.
Then you can place Carbuncle in the middle of them to take both of the cards with Plus. 5+4 = 9 & 4+5 = 9.

Ok, let me understand a bit better. Where did you put the Carbuncle card and what cards were surrounding it?
False Prophet Aug 13, 2014 @ 12:36pm

Are you 100% sure Plus was active?
False Prophet Aug 13, 2014 @ 7:48pm 
yes i am because ellone placed a card right after and got a plus combo.

Honestly when the Plus/Same is in effect I literally just win by putting down a card and praying I win lol.
