Hello everyone!

We will be meeting on February 25th at Dueling Grounds, located at 1193 Bloor St West in Toronto (just west of Bloor and Dufferin). This is a meetup so it will be free to play. We'll be there from ~12PM to store closing at 7PM.

We got about 9 videos today and had 8 people show up. Very good turnout.

Videos will take a while to process as I'm in the midst of a lot of homework.

Great meet-up Jack, thanks for setting it up. Great to see all of the guys again, sorry I had to leave early, I wanted to get some more games in with everyone else in the group.
Hopefully at the next meet-up or tournament.

Yes, 'twas fun as always.

Mike and I had some epic battles with that damned Beyonder deck of his. =)

Videos are slowly making their way onto Youtube, expect them to be all done by this weekend, no promises.

I didn't catch the fact that focus was set to 0 before I recorded my own match so unfortunately they will be somewhat blurry.

Pictures from the meetup will be up shortly, I've been spending most of my time working on adding YouTube videos to the site (in addition to adding the videos to YouTube).

I'm confused...

In the video of match #11, the second hand, Henry appears to Venture 4... but he's using Wundagore Mountain for his Homebase...
Quote* WUNDAGORE MOUNTAIN  <MN> {U}
     DOCTOR DOOM, OMEGA RED, QUICKSILVER, SCARLET WITCH, NIGHTCRAWLER, COLOSSUS
       ~ Wundagore Mountain Team may not Venture more than 2 Mission Cards per
             battle. ~

Was this just an oversight? Or were there other parameters for your meet up?
Title: Re: February's Toronto Meetup
Post by: Jack on March 05, 2012, 05:01:25 PM
Match 11?

I had a feeling he got away with venturing more than 2 with that deck. There's no way Wundagore Mountain can win a match in 7 minutes (video 3).
Title: Re: February's Toronto Meetup
Post by: gameplan.exe on March 05, 2012, 05:08:47 PM
Sorry, I meant match #2, but also, they catch the error in the video of match #4  ;)

Also in match #2, in the placing of hand #2, BBH appears to place duplicate power cards (1M and a 1E), unless I'm not seeing the cards clearly (the one placed to Mysterio). Or, was he using Lv.0 Power cards?
Title: Re: February's Toronto Meetup
Post by: Jack on March 05, 2012, 05:24:31 PM
I think that power card placed on Doc Oct is his 5-multi, it's tough to see with my blurry video.
Title: Re: February's Toronto Meetup
Post by: breadmaster on March 05, 2012, 06:35:04 PM
probably just an oversight

i've noticed on opo, both players tend to forget about negative inherents, so i doubt anything sinister was going on

The venture was just an oversight on both our parts. Later in the match I remembered and mentioned it to him. We were good from there.

That multi 1 was in fact one of my infamous multi 5 proxies... With a magic marker, a multi 1 becomes a multi 5 proxy really easily.

So technically not a dupe, even if the cards were the same.

You should draw a big 5 on it so it shows up better on video -- even blurry ones. You can see some hints of the marker in the video but that's only because I knew it was there.

LoL! that's all good. I was doing the same thing to proxy the 5M and the 6A, 7A, and 8A for a while too. Once I worked out my current printing process, I go with that for all my proxies now (and of course the genuine 7A's that I now have  :))

Now officially dubbed "The Lucky Shirt".  ;)

I just want to say a HUGE thanks to Jack for all the time and effort he's put into recording and cutting and posting these. You do alot for the OP community.  :D

Also thanks for all you guys for branching out and using unique decks and characters. I mean BBH... Hawkman? Really? AWSOME! LOL!  8)

Finally as to the matchplay itself my favorite moments were Breadmaster having the Sebastian Shaw card to block Thing's last level 8 strength attack (should have been a definite KO), and BBH having the level 7 fighting power card plus the laser pistol BASIC UNIVERSE CARD  :o  to block Bamf!'s 2nd attempt at Nightcrawler's level 9 'viscous teleport' attack were great moments.

Kudos guys.
