What a bunch of spin and BS.

"monitoring the situation keenly..."

You are hawking 2013 holiday figures in 2014! Get your eyes off that longshoreman and onto a calendar.

Oh yeah, hope the disappointment doesn't kill this game before you flood the market with product.

You say it so much better than me.

-I- would just flame about it for fun but you know.. warnings and all ;D

Interesting. I'll give this Rainbow Draft thing a shot but I suspect that constructed will be the favoured format. Maybe its just the draft that I'm hesitant about.

The more I read about the DM debacle, the happier I am I passed on the game.

Played it for the first time today and it is flat-out awesome.

Too bad it's published by WK. Hopefully the mess it has become won't kill it because it is loads of fun and (relatively) inexpensive to collect.

:shrug: More for me. You're missing out though. .....

How much are those SRs going for again?

I am about done with it already. Got a starter and know no one else with them. Half the characters I am not thrilled with and out of 20 or so boosters have 2 rares, Deadpool and Dr Oct for I could care less about. Might just sell what I have and not look back.

I said "relatively."

I wasn't really thinking singles - more the $1.00 a booster cost, which I think is very reasonable. (Of course, even if you could find them anywhere right now I'm sure they're not $1.00.)

If they were really smart they'd get someone to make an app version of the game. Not only would it fix kaewin's problem, it would tide people over until they can actually release the game proper.

Has there ever been a game with this much hype whose launch was screwed up so badly?

Oh, you mean the FOUR cards, out of almost 140 in the set? Yeah, those are real important, and I'm sure owning all four of those is requisite to enjoying the game. Oh, WAIT, it isn't and that wasn't the poster's suggestion, at all, was it? She said the game was, "...Flat-out awesome."
However, I'm sure grappling with the comment, "Relatively inexpensive.." is what turned on your nego-meter.

Thanks for dropping in, though!

Unless you're a completeist, who cares how much they are? I've beaten gobby and tsarina many times and I've also lost to them. You can field a very competitive team with just uncommons.

Just to clarify.... I'm a he. But I mostly agree. The SR's are essentially chases, which isn't ideal, but they're also not "must-haves."

As far as prices... ALL the prices are inflated at this point because of the release debacle. They'll go down, as will everything else, when they finally release more.

Mea culpa; for some reason, I recalled differently. Forgive an old forgetful fart?

Come on hair, it's not the wait it's the Wizkids. If it was FFG we both know it would've been a minimum of 6 months before the first reprint hit and you would have forgiven them and I would have been the one here complaining. At least with Wizkids the first reprint got here in time I didn't have to complain. I actually had product but was waiting for my friends to get theirs, but I still would've complained about not having opponents.
