I prophesy that the OP GOD prediction will come to pass.

Yes, sometime, in the unspecified future,  the North shall be victorious.  To quote agent Smith, "It is...inevitable!"

If the field remains unchanged from K2; I will look forward to winning.

I think someone needs to remember their performance at the LAST Peace bridge tournament before making any such claims.

Hi all,

No proxies at the DC3 Can/Am tourney on Friday night. All the cards are readily available. I will have DC/JLA/D3 cards available on Friday before the tourney as well.

As of right now, the DC Code Rule will apply. That means if you are a H deck you must not use any V code cards (that includes the Battlesite).

Let me know if you have any other questions.

So on the DC decks, you must either choose to play all H's or all V's? My question I suppose is: If I'm running a deck that has a mixture of H and V code character's, that means on the battle site I must use a V coded activator with a V coded character and vise versa?

I hope you at least gave him a spoon for that humble pie.

The competition level is growing.  Too bad Canadians are so good at this game.  Not really fair for all you the American players.

Maybe "y'all" should practice more.

The time is near.

On a side note :  Larry, I personally will not play Friday if you cannot proxy DC3
This set was never released and should allow proxies.  Please confirm this ASAP.

He will have DC3 cards for everyone on the day

Ditto.

Can you also confirm a list of cards (non-Character and non-Special) that are included in this DC3 play test? Currently, for the "Stryker's Island" location, I can't find any information about Tactic: Artifact cards.

Indeed, I figured my atrocious luck during the last tournament into the equation.  I remember well having 8 discards after two hands in the first match, and having to discard DoW 2nd hand in the next.

For the record; I eat my pie with a fork, monsieur Lojet.

I'll be expecting one when I'm served my victory pie.

so villain - hero teams are not allowed or would simply have bad synergy?  If heroes play ONLY H codes and villains ONLY play V codes are they PERMITTED?  Some link me to rule or meta's that spell it out...and thanks in advance for relieving this frustration....

The Hero Villain code means that characters can only use specials or Universe cards with a corresponding code.

So heroes (H code) can not use any card coded with a 'V' and Vice versa.

Cards that are not coded can be used by either.

The wrinkle comes with Battlesites, which don't normally exist in DC Overpower. Since the code is being applied, if you're using a Battlesite you have to make sure to pay attention to your team. You can mix and match your team with Heroes and villains, but you won't be able to use Hero coded cards from a site for the Villain on your team, and vice versa.

Make sense?

Yes.  Of course obvious exceptions would be black Adam playing captain marvel specials and thorn, a villain who has hero code specials... Thanks again, BBH

I think that's a mistake, though. Thorn is supposed to be a hero.

another idea for a tournament archetype... a 3 stat tournament.

rules? nothing major. just any character from the first 3 sets of overpower is legal plus promos (Doppleganger, Adam Warlock and Galactus) play the game like usual... but im thinking for a homebase it is useable if all characters have 3 stats, and for battlesites i would say let anything go, but if you want to restrict battlesites you can just ban the ones that don't all have a 3 stat character involved, or just make battlesite specials only useable with characters that have a 3 stat equivalent.

Avalon

During the Discard Phase, Opponent may remove 1 Hit from any Character.

Colossus      1-5-7-4 (17)
Bishop         6-7-4-3 (20)
Acolytes       7-6-3-3 (19)
Cable           7-7-4-5 (23)
Professor X  8-2-1-7 (18)
Magneto      8-5-3-6 (22)

ok so under the banning of battlesites this would not make it into play because the Acolytes is listed on this base, but if playing under alternate restrictions you could just use battlesite specials from all the other 5 since they have a 3 stat version.

but if you wanted also you could just focus on having all 4 of your characters 3 stat and whatever the battlesite is... all activator characters are legal.

many different options.

Thorn will be treated as a H code for the Peace Bridge tourney.

Also, a follow up on Battlesites. I am thinking that if you use a DC3 location card that has all heroes, then your Battlesite must not contain villain activators.  Thoughts?

Orange King,
What time will the Tournament start Friday night?
