Palatinus' OverPower Forum

Guys, thanks for updating the results.  I appreciate it.

Week 2 begins.  Good Luck!

Well, my match with DiceK is done.

My team: Lex Luthor, Bastion, Dark Beast, Mr. Sinister (r)  (Any Heroes)

His team: Heroes for Hire, Marauders, Starjammers, Velocity (r) (Outback battlesite)


Game 1 -

I manage to get DoW and Leech by the 2nd hand, putting me in a position to bet for the win in the 3rd hand, taking the game. Short one.

Game 2 -

This one was more of a brawl. He had me on the run for the first three hands. In the 3rd hand, he ventures 3 for the win, and it looked like he had me. After a few exchanges back and forth, I manage to turn the tide and cheat death. From there it's a slow recovery, and a misstep where I bet 4 with my leech, but he has all of his defensive activators and takes the round. I do manage to eventually win by a war of attrition, knocking out his team one-by-one.

Thanks for the games DiceK! Waiting for Breadman in week 3!

Seems like I'll be battling for 4th place, then! at least Week 3 will get rid of one of the undefeated card sharps 

I'm a bit confused on the two rows of rankings. Can anyone please care to explain? 

yeah, the first column shows the weekly results, the second column shows how we got there.

For example, I've lost both my weeks so far, and in both weeks I lost our best-of-three by sweeps. Whereas Zippa lost his first week to BBH by tying that week, then losing that best-of-three tie-breaker. For the standings, we're first using the weekly results, then deferring to the individual match results for tie-breakers on that. So, Breadmaster has an edge on BBH right now because, while they're both 2-0, BBH has lost a match while Breadmaster has not yet lost (although, I'm not sure where DarKBladE09 fits with them at that posted record...)

Yes we played the other day. He spanked me both games...

Yeah, I had him in the first game and got greedy. The 2nd game was more his... the event snafu in question might have saved me, but other than that, the game was his from the get-go.

REVENGE IN THE FINALS! WAAAAARRRGH!

What were the teams?

What were the teams?

I was using my venture deck - Invisible Woman, Commissioner Gordon, Blue Beetle and Deathbird with Morlock's Tunnels as the site

He was using an Any Hero deck consisting of - Reavers, Spawn, X-man and 3 stat Spider Woman.

don't worry about it, man. I know you can also win with quite the creative deck/roster
