Curryman's Meta-Amalgam Tourney!

Started by Badabing90 pages

Has anybody reached out to Id, Smurph, Jake or Scoobless about participating? They all have game in tournies. Curryman, you can make a thread for your tournament in the CBvF and I'll pin it.

And excellent! I'll type up something for the VS forum then.

So far I've tried to PM these people;

Rage
Zop
Pym-ftw
Endless Mike
ODG
King Kandy
Philsophia
Celehyga
ID
Zack Fair
PR
Existere

I'm not familiar with Scoobless, but I'll try and write up a PM for him. These personal invitations are getting trickier by the minute 😆

I'll also try to PM Galan, Naija and maybe a few others who've participated in former Battlezone-threads.

I'll contact Smurph. He rarely comes to KMC anymore.

The thread is up, badabing badaboom.

Thanks!

Any suggestions on numbers of Judges pr. Match? Thinking 3, unless we get like a ton, in which case we can roll with 5.

I've been contacted.

Thanks Blair!

I want to participate soooooo badly... but it's not something I can realistically commit to for the next two months, bar the odd day of being able to post. If our start date were September or if there were partners, I'd be down in a heartbeat.

As it is, I'll keep my eye on the tournament out of general interest. Looks cray cray.

Did you just use cray cray?

I'm banning you 😐

So....what is this exactly?

How much effort do we have to put into this? Is this like one of the those vs thread "discussions" that go on for like 50 pages? Or do we just produce our hero amalgam and give reasons why we think he'd win vs the other guys?

You'd only get a certain number of posts (probably 5, could be as much as 10), and there would be a time limit to the match (1-2 weeks usually). You'd be expected to back up your arguments with relevant scans.

There would likely be a chance for you to submit a writeup of your general strategy beforehand, which would count as your first post. You would not see your opponent's writeup. But once the match started, it would be a back and forth until you hit the post limit or time expires.

If any of that is wrong, curryman can clarify. But that's pretty standard stuff.

Also, curry, give this at least a week or two before finalizing things. People may trickle in once it seems like there's a real shot at a cool tourney. Especially with the 4th of July weekend for many, I think the soonest you'd want to start drafts in the 8th. Once things start, they should be kept moving, but the holiday will nuke attendance for early stuff if you don't wait a bit.

Oh, also, sorry if I'm wrecking anyone's strategy here but...

Be careful of, say, Reed's mind + a technomorph. You might want to add a rule that states that any constructs, magical, technological, or otherwise, need to be at or below High Meta. Otherwise, Ultimate Reed Richards + Warlock (technarchy) and you could theoretically be wandering around the tournament with a cosmic cube, or half a dozen other insta-kills.

Spoilsport.

Hey, I can't help it if I know what half you idiots are thinking.

Besides, I only mentioned Ultimate Reed because I essentially brought that exact same trick to a tourney in the past. Can't have ya'll stealing my ideas.

😊

anyone not seriously thinking of Man-Thing for the body is silly... and I think he violates less rules than Warlock would, har har!

Okay, I'll do it.

Body: Prof X
Mind: Solomon Grundy
Power: Batman

Where do I collect my trophy?

no way, Bat-Kick gets the ban

You're welcome.

Ok, since I was a jerk, here's a golden idea. Feel free to steal:

Step 1: Blob + Mr. Fantastic. Snake into their noses and stick yourself to their internal organs. With Blob's powers, they won't be able to remove you and will die from internal bleeding.

Step 2: Collect your 72 virgins, you champion, you.
