Oh no he didn't. (snaps fingers) UNLEASH THE KRAKEN¡!! Lol.

Then play your comic accurate team. But don't expect to win very often. This game isn't balanced, and NEVER will be. I personally don't particularly like Resources as much as the next guy, but I do my best to not complain about them. Your 'fun' is not my problem, all due respect. I reserve the right to play whatever team I feel like, so long as they're legal for the tourney that day. I try to have fun with whatever team i use/face. And you should too.

Yep, these.

Here, let's put the kibosh on alladis:

1. If you have a strong opinion on this subject, it likely isn't changing.

2. People who feel the need to call other people stupid in the course of what should be a civil conversation add nothing to the proceedings.

3. This argument is useless. That one guy who can't bring himself to NOT play without using the top 1- 20 figures/elements in the dominant meta probably won't stop playing that way. Ditto the dude who wants to play Serpent Society from Avengers #whatever.

4. If these various groups hope to coexist within a thriving venue, then the onus is on the players to suggest alternatives and on the judge to implement them from time to time. Period.

And if someone gets bent out of shape that they can't use Resources every week, or that they can't play the GLA week after week without getting stomped, that's on them.

Works for me.

Works for me.

Is it bad that the bolded word took me close to a minute to figure out?

I know I'm a little late to the party, but I think resources are good if only for the fact that they make figures that would otherwise never see the field viable. Does it get frustrating to see Batman's Utility Belt on a Marvel character? Yes. But if it makes it so that they can play a figure that would not otherwise get used and in a new way and make it competitive, I have to give that two thumbs up. Just my 2 cents.

I wasn't prepared to decipher regional internet this morning, so for a second I thought it might have been some sort of ripoff of Alladin.

100% agree with this. A balance must be found Grasshopper...

That's exactly where my brain tried to go first!

Ok, this probably sums it up pretty well.

As good a summation as Thrumble provided, I predict we'll be visiting this topic again by the end of the month.

Meta vs casual is our Groundhog Day.

Convention season is when it really gets ####ing insufferable, IMO. Constant reviewing of strategy + folks trolling for net-deck-ready ideas + "go big or go home brah" crap = Yeah, I'ma take a Realms break.

I agree, none of these people are wrong, in either groups.
But i believe thay CAN'T play together and be happy.
In my experience, to have fun, they mostly have to play separately.

I agree. What i also say is that, having the point cost being adjusted would make casual players happier, without spoiling competitive players from their fun. Why ? Because THEY ALWAYS find some uber-meta-comboes whatever the pieces will be. So having a more balanced game will just make finding the uber-meta-combo harder and thus more fun ! While it will at the same time render the casual play easier and more fun. Everybody wins ! Please wizkids, do it !

This would be avoided if we remember these words from a similar thread long ago.

I should get that engraved on a copper bracelet or one of those wallets that are laced together with the black plastic ribbon.

Please Vlad stop saying things i totally agree with.
Because here i totally agree with you.
Again ! It's the second or third time in like... less than a week...
It's beginning to frighten me now...
LOL
