Hey there

Hey guys. New to the group here and have a question.

If a card states, "a character can not be spectrum or cumulative ko'd by fighting cards", is it supposed to read as "cards with a fighting icon"? If not, which cards are affected?

Thanks in advance.

Which card are you referirng to?

[Tussin]

i am guessing

[Monlikedeeko]

Yes, but I found a homemade for Doomsday that says, "fighting cards", not "cards with a fighting icon". So I just wanted to know what the difference was.

[Jack]

Ask the creator how to interpret it. Can't really know what they wanted with that card.

[Monlikedeeko]

This chat is not allowing me to attach the file. It's Doomsday's OPD and was written just as I wrote it. I'm sure I've seen cards that say cannot be defended by ie "fighting cards". So I'd just like some clarification on what that encompasses.

[Jack]

Then assume it's like this card and it'll be Fighting Power cards.

The card is "Reactive Adaptation".  I believe it was part of Bios' DC OverPower set from a couple of years ago, but since I never kept a log of who made what, I can't swear to it.  I don't think I've seen him post on the site in quite a while.  (The DTR provision makes it more usable.)

Thanks. I guess I'm wondering what the difference is between, "cards with a fighting icon" and "fighting cards".
Can someone please clarify?

Also, if a character has two specials with the same special code, can they both be used or are they considered duplicates?

[Jack]

Cards with Fighting icon could mean activators, teamworks with fighting bonuses -- cards in which their primary function isn't a fighting attack.

Fighting cards, which is not correct current verbiage, means Fighting power cards, which are the 8 cards.

Special cards are only considered duplicates if they have both the same code and the same name. Just to clarify, you can have multiple copies of a special in your deck (unless it says One Per Deck on the card), they only become duplicates when drawn in the same hand or when a second copy is drawn of an already placed special.

Thanks guys. You've been very helpful.
