opo 5. elimination and draft

[breadmaster]

all right. we're going with a lean and mean 4 man tournament.  the draft order is:

odbjosh
chuu
bradness
breadmaster

we eliminate 1 team each.  wait until the person before you chooses, then go.  once 4 are gone, we'll pick our teams

we'll play each other once.  best record gets a bye to finals.  2nd and 3rd place teams play a game to see who plays 1st seed.  tie-breakers are head-to-head record

we're using legion rules, with the marvels cards.

the teams are:

havok: mutant x/thing/malebolgia/iceman: the ice-man
breadmaster
curse/maggot/mojo/war machine (3stat)

mr fantastic/ka-zar/namor (3stat)/captain marvel (DC)

rhino (3stat)/mole man/absorbing man/the flash

angel:horseman/captain mar-vell/x-man/captain Britain
odbjosh
doppelganger(3stat)/nightcrawler/brass/longshot (3stat)

beyonder/rhino/beast: the brute/nightcrawlwer (3stat)
chuu
neron/killrazor/angel: horseman/hawkeye (3stat)
bradness

Guess I'll be making double sure tomorrow that my OPO is up and working! :-P

[odbjosh]

Lets eliminate:

doppelganger(3stat)/nightcrawler/brass/longshot (3stat)

[breadmaster]

and they are outta here!

chuu is up next

btw, bradness, could you pm me your contact info?  are you on Skype?

[chuu]

please eliminate:

rhino (3stat)/mole man/absorbing man/the flash

[breadmaster]

halfway there, bradness is up next

[TheBradness]

Imma eliminate: curse/maggot/mojo/war machine (3stat)

I'll PM you in a bit, breadmaster

[breadmaster]

ok, I got rid of:

mr fantastic/ka-zar/namor (3stat)/captain marvel (DC)

so now it's draft time, josh is up first

[odbjosh]

angel:horseman/captain mar-vell/x-man/captain Britain

Looks like a winner to me!

[chuu]

just wondering, does it matter that the teams are illegal in tournament?

[breadmaster]

nope, sum deck is out the window.  the only restriction I had, was the same character couldn't be on a team twice (came up last time with 3 and 4 stat super skrull on one team, but not this time)

you're up chuu

[chuu]

i'll take:

beyonder/rhino/beast: the brute/nightcrawlwer (3stat)

[TheBradness]

I guess I'll take this band of merry misfits:

neron/killrazor/angel: horseman/hawkeye (3stat)

[odbjosh]

Anyone want to try and get a few test games in before the tournament begins?

[breadmaster]

bummer news about warrior, eh brad?

ok. that leaves me with:

havok: mutant x/thing/malebolgia/iceman: the ice-man

we'll say, a week to play the games.  you play one game against each other person in the tournament, and report the results here

next Thursday, at 12am est is the deadline

if anyone wants to test drive the decks first, that's fine.  just make sure both players agree to when the actual match occurs

good luck!
