Just so Paul will have enough time to "plan," the next SoCal Vs. Day event is tentatively January 28th-29th (Friday/Saturday), 2010. I want to bring Golden Age back in some form, so we will be doing some "test tournaments" in the upcoming weeks to see how some of my changes work out. Ideally, I would like to have it like Magic has Vintage, with a Restricted list and NO BAN list. We'll see.

So? You kissed a guy.

On a serious note, I've been thinking of playing something similar to Luis' build for another upcoming tournament. I'm not sure is the Ultimates aspect of it is worth it, when you could go mono. I'm thinking:

Wolverine on three
Concealed four - you have some good choices between X-23 or Sabertooth
Mystique, Foxx on five.

And you can give Mystique and Masablade too and ur opponent has no good attacks at this point. Not sure would it be better then Ultimate Cyclops, who doesn't need an equip, but this set up would make cards like Adamantium Claws which is awesome with Masablade a whole lot better.

Also SRA but no mobi = mind blown

Some folks out there wanted cards and I was disorganized, pm me your wish list and we'll see what I have in stock....

And I think this thread also addresses to some extent what actions previous council members have taken to advance the game.

Wasn't Patrick on the Council, doesn't he hold weekly (sometimes more often) vs tournaments still, doesn't he host large well organized, well prized events...

If you want to know where the vs events went you need travel no farther than Costa Mesa and MajestiX, apparently a SoCal card Capital, and a legacy of the VS council.

Hey all! This is the other Dennis (from the now famous Minh/Dennis team). I just joined this board because I realized one of the reasons I've never minded making the drive from San Diego for these events is all of you. Over the years I've gotten really used to your familiar faces, and you've made every experience great for me (This one especially cuz I won). I love Vs., and I love being around other passionate fans of the game.

Thanks again for making the effort to get me up and down those stairs (next time, downstairs please). Means a lot to me.

I'll post our team decks when I get off work for anyone who's interested. We really put a lot of thought into the synergy between Revenge Squad/Anti-matter's minus def mechanic and Spidey's stall/minus atk (Feminine Wiles) ability. The Human Torch, Firewall, Heatwave, and Collateral Damage only got added on Friday (thanks Chi). The whole machine just makes Press the Attack too easy, which I was actually pretty sloppy with on that last game. After Spidey and Torch had swung unstunned, I should have teamed Shanna & Kazar into a char with 0 def (Vengeance), then stacked Press and Heatwave mid-combat. Woulda had 3 ready attackers to play with. Oh well. Live and learn.
It was my first time playing you though I have seen you around for years! Glad you posted here, I would like to see your deck lists if you have the time!


Also Bear I would be interested in seeing your pictures as well as any, any one else took!!
Thanks!

This is Kenny, the person that got 3rd place in the main event. The event was really great and looking forward to the next event. Glad there are still VS players around.
I went 4-2 pre-top 8 and lost to Paul's Illuminati//Spider-Friends deck in the Top 8 table. My losts in the pre-top 8 was to Omar's World's Finest deck due to stupid Only Human and the other lost was to Luis' Ultimates deck because of Only Human again... I'm goin gung-ho on that card soon !! And the lost to Paul was due to heavy board control and i could not push enough damage through...

Here is my deck list that I played with:
4 Wasp//Ultimates
18 S.H.I.E.L.D. Agents
3 Speedball//Painmonger
4 Squirrel Girl
2 Nick Fury//Director of S.H.I.E.L.D.
4 Wolverine//Hydra
4 Blinding Rage
4 Origin Story
4 Savage Beatdown
4 Birthing Chamber
4 S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier
3 Torture Chamber
2 Evil Lair
