[COLOR="Zeal"]You butter your toast how you like, but I'll continue to do so on the bottom side.[/color]

{besides if they wanted us to use teal, then the closest auto-colour they give us shouldn't be called "MediumTorquoise"

They're just asking to be lampooned...}

Nah. He's a bit more zealous in his choice of colors, that's all.

The bottom side gets buttered a lot around here..

Yeppers! Copycat and Maria Hill might be seeing a resurgence.

Spy Theme FTW!

Sandman alone with first turn immunity. Those stop nothing.

Not legal... only 3 characters per 100 points of the build are allowed on the sideline (as the only statement that's ever been made about the sideline in any official rules document/post)... I'm surprised Dragon didn't poop all over this after it made his whiskers tingle.

Also not legal... 1 ID card per figure on your force.
Why not just have 1 Grasshopper on your team if you're going to do this to make an even bigger point?

...and that Michael Jackson is there to read the comments?


Nah, he likes to make a more obvious tongue-in-cheek statement by doing that.

Yeah I know, but it not only makes a better T-shirt, but i was kinda internally betting with myself about who'd be the first to correct me. Colour me surprised that it was actually a poster in this thread and not the D-man.

Sandman with 5 Entities attached to him, 1 ID Card and the Power Plant

Sadly this is my fault. It began as a joke between the group of players I am travelling too UK Nationals with over what is the stupidest team you could play in the constructed qualifier if you've already made it through the sealed qualifier?

It seemed like a silly little joke of mine until one of our players decided that he is indeed playing this whether he has qualified or not.

I'm strongly against it to the point that harsh words have been exchanged and we're not exactly getting on well. I'm very concerned about the way this ruins the experience for people who have taken time off work and spent money travelling to play in the largest event in the country this year.

His argument is that I regularly build frustrating and unique teams and that this is no different than my odd builds frustrating him at a local tournament on a weekday evening. He seems totally, and sadly, blinded to the fact that this isn't just frustrating and it totally removes a player from the game.

If he is going to legitimately try to win 3 roll offs to qualify, go for it. If he just wants to muck up the event, #### him.

What is the difference between those two statements?

That's a serious question.

There's nothing legitimate about it. It's being done as some horrible form of practical joke at the expense of four players.

I've probably allowed myself to get far too wound up about it but his attitude stinks.

Is it too late for me to tell him to #### off and make his own way there as I'm the driver?

Because attitude matters. Believe it or not this is a legitimate strategy. It does not have a high success rate, but then again neither does playing the WildCats.

While it might be fun, in the short term it will likely cause confrontation with other players and he won't be especially liked by anyone with the misfortune to come across him. For me if I drew the short straw to play him I would just concede and not even give him the benefit of rolling dice and just walk away. I do think Wizkids needs to address the issue this figure raises and I think having someone do this in the finals might act as a wake up call but on a personal level the player is the one everyone will end up hating. I hope he is ready for that.
