Hey guys,

We strive to keep the competitive environment for Vs. fair and fun, and the arrival of infinite combos has made us decide to issue an errata on the Marvel Evolution card "Black Box".

It has been too easy to pull off combo decks with this card, and the card's intent of providing a simple recursive and anti decking element to the game has been lost in the face of its combo potential.

The text of the card now reads:

"Shuffle up to three target cards not named Black Box from a single player's KO'd pile into his deck. If you control an X-Force character, draw a card."

We don't take the addition of functional errata lightly, but the lack of possible interactions and solutions has meant we needed to act swiftly and absolutely concerning this.

This change will be reflected in the upcoming CRD, and will be updated on the FAQ.

Thanks and good games,
Ben Seck

Skillz.

Nice to hear from you guys.

Whoa... HE LIVES!

hmmm i guess i can break up that deck. now back to exiles being number 1

This is 'prolly the best outcome that could've happened. Good show.

Thank you TBS!

Nice one dude.

Now, what do I have to do to get 3-drop Blink banned? ;)

Hey, we got an announcement! Not the one we wanted, but considering the circumstances this is good news.

Seriously, this was the best way to handle that card. And the fact that they cared enough to make an announcement has to give you at least some hope. I mean, they are still paying attention. That's gotta count for something.

Good show!

(Now, what's the next set going to be?)

Very well-thought out resolution. Thanks, TBS.

How do we know this wasn't the announcement he was going to make?

[flamearmor activate!]

I was wondering how you guys would handle this one...

Thanks

Excellent point. People can now stop whining about the lack of an announcement-- this is clearly what TBS promised we'd get. ;)

For the record, I wasn't complaining/whining about the lack of an announcement with the other thread, more like asking legal questions 'cuz I'm not in the know or something.

[I wish I had flamearmor]

cool deal.
