I agree with Unsung about the passing around a God Pack. A draft is a draft. We should follow the rules. That's the point of drafting.
The rules state if you are unsatisfied with your booster, you RETURN it and get a new one. A rules lawyer would enforce this. If you get a booster that has a problem, return it. If its good, you pass it. Thats what the offical rules say. But I'm not looking to start a whinner war, so I digress.
^^ For the constructed, it WAS a highly valued prize, but now I can just print one out. :P I kid, I kid.
You wouldn't be the first to use a proxy card in a local tourney, so why not - other than the pictures on line so far have been too pixelated to be readable when printed.
I don't want to play a game of chess where dumb luck or money decides whether or not I get to use a rook... Collectibility is a necessary evil of Heroclix, not a boon.
Roland and Eric showed up for clix at Oasis today and I went 0-2
We decided to play different teams.
Team 1:
The t-botls team with Zemo and Contingincy plan.
Rolands Team:
Air Walker
AA Robin (Tim Drake) (the one with the smokecloud + incap SP)
Slave Lantern
Question (female)
We ruled that for Pennance special power adjacency did not matter IE if based with an opposing fig he could still FB another fig 6 squares away.
Could have killed Air walker if he haddn't actually missed hitting Pennance on his Damage SP clicks... (still would have lost) Rolland had forgotten about that power
Team 2
Ragnarok Surtur + Protected, inside info, Fall back, Lunge (which could have changed the game had I remembered to use it...)
Honestly I was just trying to fill points.
Fire Demon x4 + alias on one
New Jeff Ruled (house rule?) that the Fire demons get the bonus from RagS
Erics team (Teen Keyword)
Cosmic boy + contingincy Plan
Young Superman + protected
AA Robin (same as Roland's)
Kid Flash
Bucky
AA Batman (Terry)
I need a 7 to hit Supes with RagS (on his 11 attack click) and I had 3 rolls each time one of my dice was a 1 and I missed each time...
The third round was between Roland and Eric and they made two of the most disgusting teams possible. (for 400 anyway)
Rolands seemed stronger but after a long chess battle Eric came out with the W.
Not sure if they want me to spoil the teams so I will let them discuss it since I didn't really watch the whole game as I went to play some MTG.
In other news:
Thank you Seahawks for beating the 49ers
My day was made seeing the Cards upset the Vikings (well I got to see the second half, but my dad called me with the first half scores).

As predicted my Buccaneers lost again. So I found myself at Oasis trying to forget about the pain. Congrats Justin on the Cards win. No matter what else happened that made your weekend. And Mike's whose Saints can now rest some players at the end of the year.
Once again I decided to support the venue by picking up 1 booster and karma rewarded me. Pulled a SR Valkyrie & a Phyla-Vell!!!!!! Eric also bought 1 booster and pulled a SR Venus. Which he then immediatly sold to ??? (I forget his name, the asian guy with the kid that shows up now and again). Between the two of us the last two weeks that's 4 SR's in 7 packs!
Justin kids about the teams we built. It was Avengers vs Defenders. A classic Roland vs Eric battle.
Next week my Bucs are at home vs the Jets. A "winable" game I guess but the Bucs defense is just what the doctor prescribes to struggling teams. Looks like I'll be drowning my sorrows in clix again.

Reason: Correct Opponent Next Week
All this information and nothing about the chick. What happened to your sense of priorities?

Dont have to worry about getting feats and BFCs anymore, now printed versions are legal according to the new RA.
I would still want an official hard copy, but at least I don't have to sweat getting the feats from this set.
Yes the value of the WK printed feats will go down (once againg people will still want an official copy), but at least now everyone can have access to Protected and Warbound, yes you might see more but at least it makes competitive clixs a little less money driven.

Okay, so here is my rules question that I didn't think of while playing Thor and Loki the other day.
T&L is a duo fig with RS. While adjacent to Roland's Scarlet Witch, I felt compelled to clobber her at close range with my object as my only course of action. While driving home, I wondered . . .
Could I have rolled break away to perform the RS, and if I failed to break away, could I have attempted a second break away to attempt a second RS attack? Based on everything that I just read in the FF Rule Book, I believe I could (should) have done that and not been hampered by that pesky little biatch.
Was this ever a question? Not sure why there was confusion. Duo figs don't get to do everything twice! Just punch or shoot. And Jim answered his own question on the same page.
Yes the value of the WK printed feats will go down...
At this point there isn't much farther the value of the cards can go down. The apparent "end" of clix combined with the current economic difficulties created a vast decline of all HeorClix, especially cardboard, on the secondary market.
In researching ebay: within the last 60 days the most expensive non HoT feat sold was a Warbound for $13.41. The average cost for a feat was between $3-5, and that was for LE's. ICw/O, Nova Blast, etc is down to $2 and change. Protected's aren't even selling.
Some online stores may have some Feats still listed at astronomical values, but they were not selling anyway. They will have to adjust their prices accordingly or just waste fees listing them.
If someone looked at these peices of cardboard as investments, then you just got burned. Welcome to where everyone else's 401K is at.
If someone looks at this as losing a competitive advantage they had over other players since they had something those players did not, then put down your Orange Lantern ring and learn how to play the game.
