No. They had some but they were growing mould on it (customer just brought them in). I was thinking of buying them but they were a health hazard.

EDIT: The Orange King has proposed to do some max-6 matches, so build them and bring them to the October event!
BBH has mentioned that Beyonder is legal in Max 6, but Captain Mar-vell, Reyes and Tiffany are NOT allowed because of their inherents.

Well, not so much that they were illegal per se, but in any Max 6. tournament I was in back in the day they had been banned by the organizers of those tournaments.

Going to change up the ruling which I think is a proper solution to the Captain Mar-vell, Reyes and Tiffany problem.

Instead of banning those three characters; no level 7 or 8 power cards.

I didn't see how banning those 3 characters would have made it a pure max 6 when you could've easily had a boosted Deathlok, Hydra, etc. in your deck. Banning level 7 and 8 power cards makes more sense so that characters would stick to their max 6 grid.

Thoughts?

Love the max-6 tourney idea. Though in my opinion BBH has made the best team of that subgroup, it will be fun to see what folks come up with.  I think getting rid of the 7 and 8 power cards does fix the 'problem'.

I've been extremely busy and I've been experience some software glitches with Premiere Pro. Problems were solved in November but exams were on the horizon.

Here's one for now. I'll try to get the rest up by the first week of January if the glitches don't come back.

It's usually bamf!'s fault.

i've played bamf a few times, and never noticed him playing slowly (maybe we can't recognize other slowpokes)

it just seems to be a trend that videos featuring me tend to be longer.  the june match between bamf and i is almost an hour! and that's casual!

The matches between bamf! and Ted take much longer than the games I have with either of them. Not sure why..
