Hey BBH.  Just wanted to let you know that I am 100% in for next weekends meetup.  Are we allowing the use of proxies for mega rares?  and Marvels?  or is it actual cards only?
I'm rubber and you're glue...

I don't think we care what cards you proxy for casual meetups, though try to keep it sensible (don't print out all 50+ cards in your deck, per se). For tournaments, we'll have a fixed list of allowed proxies. I'll work with BBH on Saturday to narrow down that list to about Marvels + ~10 to 20 cards.

BigBadHarve

Yeah, this week is a casual meet up. Proxy what you like. It's all about fun and experimentation.

Hmmm, maybe I should approach the missus about proxying a new girlfriend...

A list is a good idea as long as you take rarity, cost, and general usefulness into consideration.

Some cards are rare like the Onslaught promos, but don't cost a lot.

Some cards like the Phoenix 11 are rare, costly, and not very useful.


Jack

Well, the proxy list would be comprised of cards that every deck can make use of. Some Any Heroes, Beyonder, A-Next, 5 Multi would be on the list for sure. I don't want to specify character specific cards or heroes except for Malebolgia.

Lies!  I think you're trying to force me to shell out 30$ for a Phoenix 11 if we play BBH's format again!

Well, if I'm running the tournament, I won't be using BBH's rules. :P

But defensive Vertigo + Image Inducer is fun!  I'd play it again.   :P

No one MADE you use Phoenix.   :o

BTW - I've got an X-man character for your Dad. Are you coming for Wednesday? We're hoping to hook up for some rounds.

There's a good chance I'll make it out.

I've pretty much finished my dads deck, so I'm just at the mercy of the "Powers That Be" for a deck to run.

And yeah, he said you wanted a Hideout Discovered?  I don't know how many you need but I think I've still got 6 or 7.

Is Malebolgia a really hard card to get?
