i don't care, really, i wasn't actually planning on using one -- until i saw how much everybody feared them . . . 😖hifty:
it does raise a question i was meaning to ask: what if ss had NOT opened one in the past. could i claim he had the ability to do so anyway? it would clearly lie within his powerset, but would this need to be backed up to be accepted? i ask because in attempting to be creative, a scenario may come up where a character does something 'new', and i'd like to know if this is frowned on in tournaments. i don't really recall anything like it happening in the tourny i judged . . .
It's your call. Plenty of people have BS'd about power sets in the past. Hell, I embellished plenty about Apollo way back when. If you get caught, your team is probably screwed, simply because you'll lose face for making something up. But at the same time, it might sometimes be worth a shot. Like I said, your call.
And as for creating a feasible strategy that the character has never used before, again, feel free. It will probably be called into question by a good opponent, but people do it with Flash all the time on the forums. 🙄
