let's quit complainin about how hard it is to get chase figures!! Man, the bellyaching is killing me!
If we as a human race had just sat around the caves and complained about being cold would we have ever created fire?
If Thomas Edison had just sat in the dark and complained about not being able to read at night would he ever have harnessed electricity and invented the light bulb?
C'mon folks, take the next step in human invention and get those chases!! Sell a couple of super rares and get one off E-bay. Work a little overtime and buy one from a fellow realmser. Stop drinking booze (not recommended) and save up all those nickels and buy a couple of cases!! Trade that 2nd set of Legacy Uniques that you were planning to keep minty fresh and pay for retirement.
Best of all, come to any venue I frequent and for a nominal fee you can play with mine!! I WILL RENT CHASES to all the belly achers out there...man, can't wait to get my hand on Nekron and the new Black Hand, thank you New Wizkids for keeping up with comics!!
Yeah, but the thing is, everything that was invented to counter complaints have been invented....it's 2010, no one can invent anything anymore because, I guess since the invention of the internet to keep people from complaining about dial up.....there's no more solutions or inventions to curtail the CURRENT trend in complaining. LOL
I've started this reply numerous times, and gettier more pissed off as I write this. When I started my thread earlier about making chases easier to get, I was making a suggestion, not bellyaching. I was taking about a huge population of this country who are out of work right now, and I'm sure some of those people play Heroclix. For your information I buy 2-3 cases a set and have a couple chases. I was actually thinking of people who may be less fortunate than me. If you don't like that take a running leap. . .
Can't say I am not a little disappointed that my thread turned into another one where people are complaining about chases...
I like chases, I like that I got Zombies that I can play in Horrorclix, I like that I got an Alfred that totally rocks, I am EXTREMELY happy to have a Thor Frog of Thunder as a fig, I am ok to have 2 cool supermen, and I am OVERWHELMED about having 2 awesome batmen...I like them because they were made and this is how we got them, I don't like them because I have them and other people don't, I don't like them because they are more valuable than other heroclix, I like them because they are cool just the same as I like my 70+ Bouncing Boys, because they are cool...
I have every chase figure and play them frequently at my venue with only 10 year olds and underprivileged children. And I buy a 2nd booster during drafts just in case I pull a god pack so I can use my back up pack instead.

Honestly I don't mind them. Basically in my mind they aren't any harder to pull than an average super rare. That is something that has bothered me. I miss the days of buying a case and getting a set. If it had a chase or not didn't matter one way or the other.
On a different note I don't see why people have such a big problem with them. They made non-chase(ie. SR's) harder to get and it seems like very few people had a problem with that.

At last you posses something cool, because you´re not.
The OP made a thread that is basicly trolling on ppl stating their opinions. If youre fine with Chases, great, say it out loud, but don´t belittle the efforts of other people who don´t share your point of view and, in their opinion, try to change the game for the better. Try to get ppl on your side, without throwing stones and saying that "talk is useless, and you complain because your childish", which you didn´t said, but implied. If you want ppl to "quit complain", next time, try to close the forums and sway their opinion to your side for that "great cause", because if we can´t voice our opinion here, this forum is as useless as OWK forum was.
I find the Rarity of SRs still within the acceptable range.
The over emphasis on pulling two figures in a set, and usually one of the two... dilutes the values of figures in the rest of the set. Its not opinion. You can track it. Go look the prices up. I'll wait. See?
what it really hurts is the trading values. that's an important part of the metagame~!
THERE HAVE BEEN CHASE PIECES SINCE LEGACY! THEY ARE NOT GOING AWAY, ACCEPT REALITY AND MOVE ON WITH YOUR LIFE ALREADY.
Ahem... sorry about that..
I believe Unleash had the Bat Sentry as the first chase.
But in Unleash, Legacy, and Mutant Mayham, it was one chase per case. There was only 1 chase. Then there was a long period without chases.
Then chases came back at high odds with Supernova and Origins.
Then no chases in Avengers, Justice League, and Mutantions & Monsters.
Then the chases came back with Crisis.
So there has been dry spells without chases.
But when people complain about chases they are usually refering to chases in Supernova and sets after Supernova.

I don't think chases suck. I like the few I have managed to get. I'm not some spoiled child where I have to stamp my feet and hold my breath because I might not get something.

Well it used to be when you bought a case you got one of all the figures considered SR. So I don't find it acceptable. This is why I give a rats ### about the rarity of chase figures. I've pulled a chase when there were SR's I would have much rather had.
