I suppose another thing that should be touched upon and clarified which was not neccessarily is what happens if I put together a deck which runs 12 cards which reference character A, 12 cards which reference character B, and also 12 cards which reference character C? I realize this is somewhat unlikely but would this be considered a valid dual legend deck? The requirement of dual legend is still met but 3 legends in theory exist in the deck. What if it had 20 cards which referenced character C? The requirement of dual legend is still met but a "third legend" exists in the deck which goes beyond the 12 card limit in this case. The most likely scenario for these are I'd imagine Fantastic 4 decks. Edited by minivan987, Apr 30 2013, 08:34 PM.

1 of the 2 what? @minivan That is a very unlikely situation, and even with the F4, it probably wouldn't be a very good nor consistent. |

If a card refers to one of your legends it counts toward your card limit for that legend unless it also refers to your second legend and you choose for it to count for the second legend. For instance if your two legends are Mr. Fantastic and Invisible Woman, A Child Named Valeria can count toward either one (you choose which one each copy goes toward, if you run 4 copies they don't all have to count toward the same legend), but just because it says Dr. Doom on it doesn't mean that you can say it counts toward neither one. If the name of one of your legend characters appears on a card's game text it counts. Doomstadt says "you are considered to control Dr. Doom" so that counts as a Dr. Doom card. Indebted says "If you discard a card named Spider-man" so it counts as a Spider-man card. Sentinel Mark VII says "While you control Magneto..." so it counts as a Magneto card. For Moloids you may play up to 4 if your legend is Dr. Doom. You may play up to 4 if your legend is Mole Man (Note: the only way for Mole Man to work is to play 4 moloids and 4 copies of both the Mole Man from MHG and the one from MOR). If your legends are Dr. Doom and Mole Man you can play up to 8 copies of Moloids with 4 counting toward each legend. |

Well everyone, looks like Dual Legend wins the format war.. Super Legend put up a fight, but not enough people voted.. So, if the amount of votes here is an indication of how many people show up, I'm thinking this will be my final run.. I'd love to be proven wrong though... 20+ people show up, and I think that will convince me to continue.. That will show me that the people in the Mid-Atlantic area are still interested in VS System, and still want to play in fun, but competitive environments. So be sure to car pool and bring some friends.. Build inventive decks and have fun! On another note: Lets keep these tournaments going. If you aren't willing to travel to other places then, the the tournaments will not come to you.. It's that easy. We started just south of DC because someone brought up wanting to have a DC/VA tournament. The guys from NYC came down 4 hours on a bus, and my brother and I picked them in DC and we drove the rest of the way. For their trouble and effort, their excitement for a game we all love, I decided that they would be the next stop given the want was there. It was at first, and I thought we'd have a much bigger turnout than we had. I was expecting at least 20 people, we had 11. The Baltimore based group (my playgroup) have traveled to both so far, full 6 people at both events. We have that plus about 2-4 that come and go on a weekly basis. We all have full time jobs, we all have bills to pay, and responsibilities.. Heck I've got two kids, a wife, and a dog to take care of on only my income (which is not that impressive). One day on a weekend, planned well enough in advance, no more than 4 hours driving for almost everyone in the area (DE/NY/VA/MD/WV/PA/NJ/DC) and no need to pay for parking or look for food (Wendy's, McDonalds, KFC, & Chinese food all within waking distance) makes this the perfect center stop for all. No excuses for anyone to miss this one.. Take a day off of work, arrange for some one to watch your kid(s)/pet(s), play test decks as much as you can in the time being... Take a day for yourself, and help make a bigger better VS community in the process.. I promise you'll meet awesome peoe and make new friends/remeet people.. |

I'm not for banning Omnipotence. *sarcasm* I also like how the MEV set is banned in the 1st 2 type of formats. WTH!? It's whatever. Um, yeah, I'll go with Dual Legend format. Edited by Ragin' Cajun108, May 4 2013, 07:55 PM.

You're really not going to ban Omni for this? The whole point of this format is to showcase multiple legend characters so it's going to be pretty transparent what most decks want to do. Being able to completely shut down a large majority of the decks in the format with a single card is bad news. If you're not running Omni you're going to get crushed by decks that do. |

I'm hoping people will play for the fun of playing, and there are limited options for plot twist search and there aren't to many slots to just put things in.. If enough people tell me they want it banned, then I will. As of now the only card added to the ban list is 3 drop Blink, as she is banned in any tournament I run. |

I really think you should reconsider banning Omni. As OMB mentioned, shutting down one of 2 legends completely doesn't seem fun or balanced. I think anyone who shows up will be playing for fun but let playing for fun trick you into thinking no one is trying to win. If you're trying to win you'd have to be either oblivious to Omni existing or just that confident that you can win without it. Omni should just be banned in Legend formats altogether. It's a skillless card that takes even less skill to play when you have potentially 12 characters of the same name and such. Edited by SuperAzn, May 5 2013, 11:51 AM.

I'm not usually for banning meta cards but just like ratcatcher in random punks, omni is just not fun in legend format. That being said, my deck is already built! After i finish up exams i'll start testing! Also I apologize for the DC crowd not being up there for NY but it wasn't the distance that was the problem, it was the specific weekend. We are planning to be at this one for sure. |

Legends decks will be 48 card decks with everyone running the same 12 generics. |

What makes you say that? The deck construction for the dual legend format has extremely limited space. Half the deck has to be dedicated to the two legends, leaving very little space for tech/silver bullet cards.. There are a lot of pros and cons to having Omni and PA in the format (and that's only 8 of the generics I assume your referring to). Like I said, if anyone can provide enough proof/sound reason why the two should be banned, then I'll ban them. Until then, they aren't something I'm particularly worried will be ruining the format. |
