Online Series 2013: Legends Format

Alright. So starting this year I am introducing a ranking system for these tournaments. The way the rankings will work will be as follows.

For Participating In A Tournament Until Completion You Will Get 1 Point.
For Making The Top 4 You Will Get 1 Point.
For Making The Top 2 You Will Get 1 Point.
For Winning A Tournament You Will Get 2 Points.

Once the series comes to a completion, near the end of the year, the top 8 ranked players will be put in a Online Championship Tournament.

So from the last tournament, I gave the winner the ability to choose the format for this tournament, who was j-man. He chose a Legends format with the council approved sets being legal, so here will be the rules.

Deck Stipulations: Each deck must contain at least 12 cards which reference the same character either in its name or game text (reminder text counts as well for this tournament).

Legal Sets: All UDE sets will be legal except for MEV. The four council approved sets will be legal as well, namely...Marvel Factions, Marvel Warzone, DC Lantern's Light, and DC Nightfall.

Bizarro World: Flip only if you control a Revenge Squad character.
Characters you control named Bizarro have all character names and identities.

MWS is required though OCTGN may be used as well if it is agreed upon.

Round Length: Each round will be given a 7-day period, any games not finished will either be given a draw or a default winner based of prudent judgment. Each match set will be best 2/3, unless there is an agreement to make it one match.

Matches: Each match is best 2-out-of-3 and they do not have a time limit.

The Tournament Begins: February 1, 2013.

Players
1) Crusader
2) j-man
3) Neuro2k5
4) Seph1roth
5) DanielTurpin
6) drstrange

Be prepared for a turn 4 hulk win deck. There will be hulk in the tournament!



Edit: Crusader you might want to specify programs required rather than allowed. Otherwise the very reall and had happened before possibility of someone having octgn and the other person having only mws are possible.

im in. is it 12 unique cards or 12 cards total....

if its 12 in total, then one could simply play 4x of a character at 3 drops and never use them in game.

I would like to give it a shot too and join the online fun.
But I have 0 experience with building legend decks and could use some help with restrictions :)
I haven't really played in any BYOT, BYOTT, Legend etc. formats.
Are generics illegal in legend? Could I go wild on teams/team-ups aslong as those 12 cards are met?

The only requirements are having 12 cards with the same name in their card name or game text, and you can use cards only from the listed sets. Otherwise it's just a normal construction format.

Really I'm not sure at this point, for a while MWS was the standard online program, but I've been seeing more and more people using OCTGN.

I use both, but prefer OCTGN. I like the interface better, and you can invite spectators with OCTGN

Quick question for the decks, cards from for example Factions that refer to "Cabal" characters, do those count as legend for Dr. Doom? Since he is refered to in the gametext, because he is one of the cabal.
