Oh that's just hilarious. Jon Herr wins the event with his own character card, in the first event it's played in :P

Congrats to Herr, seriously.

Well, it was smart of him to pick a character that nobody knows how to counter, y'know, since it JUST came out! Plus, there's no denying his character must've been good to pilot him to first.

Also...

SEONG MI-NA GOT SECOND! SO ALL YOU HATERS CAN TEH SUX IT!

...we were doubting she was good?

Yeah I dunno what planet you've been playing UFS on, but Seong Mina is the best 5 HS character in the game.

Being a perpetual second placer does not make a character good. I'm just sayin

And Remy beats her. If Remy beats her = not good imho.

EDIT: I absolutely love this topic. How many would have been down my throat if they had heard I pulled a shenanigan like that? Hm. I wonder.

Why, are you admitting to anything :o

Not really, I'm so not subtle that I couldn't get away with anything. I was just thinking about something is all.

Jon Herr wins.

I am not surprised, given how amazing his champ card is.

Just look at the Top 10 characters thread, amongst others. A lot of people have suggested that, because of her 5 handsize, she just isn't quick enough to compete with other characters. However, what people fail to understand is that a character's abilities are the most important part about them.

They also fail to understand Defender has an amazing Seong Mi-Na ability =D

It's cool, atleast you know you're the better player and won, Cheat to wiiiiin, woot.

No one cheated. Dude made a mistake and lost. If anything, he should dial this really useful number I got; 1-800-PAY-ATTENTION.

Usually get the job done.

What was the breakdown for diversity, anyone get kicked from it?

Also one 5 HSer in a sea of 7's does not really sell me on 5 HS being playable. I'm still not sold on her to be honest till I see decklists and see what she was contending with and see how she fares against all these fancy new 6 HSers who just came out with brutal abilities...

So now that John Herr's character HAS seen play, What does he DO? Anyone got a picture?

im a bit foggy but it was like

R: after you play a card reveal the top card of your deck, may chose to put it on bottom

e pitch a card: draw

7/18?

all evil water

When a person reaches 0 vitality they lose the game. When a player continues playing even though he is at 0 vitality, and says 'oh its too late, i started my turn already' he is cheating.

So you made a mistake. Did Scuba make a mistake? Probably. Will this ever be resolved? Eh, prolly not.

But don't go smearing his name cause you lost. In the end it was your mistake.

Dragging Scuba's name through the mud like this is kinda garbage. Even though he IS Scubadude, he's been in the game since the beginning and has never had a reputation as a cheater. Not to sound like a jerk, but if you made the mistake Thai, you made the mistake dude. There's nothing you can do about it now. It happens. I watched Olexa forget to kill me with Shallow Swipe at Team Nats this year and just end his enhance step, but he just sucked it up and finished the game. Granted he went on to **** me next turn but thats besides the point. Mistakes happen dude. You can't blame Scuba for not catching your mistake. I am sure he wasn't trying to pull one over on you. Both of you are respected members of the community and this defamation of each other is doing nothing but hurting the situation. You should take it up with Scuba personally rather than spread accusations. I am not going to bat for Scuba. I am doing this to save the boards from ultimate drama meltdown. Please keep it to PM's.

In other news, 4 people sand bagging Chun? Frown town...

Grats to Yonharr. The character and player are both clearly overpowered.

Oh and Gaines... you're a weiner for not playing Gief. Yeah i said it. Bet you won't hit him.

Grats to all top 8 dudes. I really do wish we would have seen more non-chun li aggro but I guess it's still very early in the life of set 12 to see a huge impact. Not enough time to pick up Breakers/Launchers i guess.

Yes, I called the judge but by the time I realized what I passed up on it was already too late.. we couldn't revert the game state and scuba would not admit I dealt the blow (he claims to not remember me using Ready for Anything). I was relying on him being honest but I guess winning is more important than friendship or good sportsmanship. It was my fault for not catching it and I wouldn't be as down as I was if it happened in any other game against any other player, but it happened in UFS with a person I considered a friend.

The fact is that my mistake was not catching the win.. I did win and went blank thinking I didn't win and he didn't call it either (who would?). Like I said, I did make the mistake and I wouldn't be as down if it happened in another game against another player, but to have that happen against someone I saw as a friend and had respect for blows. Until what happened this weekend I had high regards towards scuba. I've started playing this game only 1 month after it was released and had lots of fun. This is my 1st distasteful experience. Didn't expect it and didn't ask for it.

Agreed. I had a Seong Mi-na deck built for the event and changed my mind at the last minute to go with Morrigan for anti-meta purposes. She is by far my favorite 5 HS character.

What I find funny is that if Scuba wasn't Scuba, and it was just some no-name, nobody would even care. They'd just go, "Oh, sorry to hear that dude." But all of a sudden we give that no-name a name and now it's important? Who gives a crap if it's ScubaDude? The fact is that he went down to 0, but his drive to win lead him to this. GraveLord should've attempted to rule shark and should've cried his head off until everybody witnessed what had happened. There is nothing but shame for Mr. Scuba, and quite honestly, I don't want to hear any rebuttle; the sympathy towards ScubaDude is likened towards that of Michael Richards.

As for John Herr...

....EWWWW that's a pretty STOOPID character card. I realize he deserved it, but really, 7 handsize for otherwise draw control? Yeah...that's jank, mostly because of Ivy's Fortune Teller =/

Kind of a flimsy thing to lose a friendship over, if you ask me. I know I wouldn't lose a friend over losing because I THOUGHT he 'cheated'. But that's me.

It's also kinda retarded that people are jumping on Scuba without hearing his side of the story.He's not here to defend himself and we got people jumping on him because...why? I dunno, maybe these people know something I don't because as far as I can tell the whole thing looks to be a giant misunderstanding with one person taking the issue over the top because he made a mistake and lost. Sure, we all now know he thinks he was cheated but was he? I mean, can you HONESTLY tell me that Scuba didn't make a mistake himself?

I thought not.

Regardless, I'm done here.

YEAH BOOOOOOOOOOOOOI

Both Jeremy and I have been swiss champs with Seong Mina this season and got 2nd and 3rd place respectively (screw that **** swiss champ curse). We both lost to the overall winners of the tournaments, so no shame in that. So far, Seong Mina takes swiss twice in major events this season. J-Ray is without a doubt in my mind going to be playing that Seong Mina for the rest of the season, so I'm sure she'll add more swiss crowns to her mantle.

What I wanna hear about is OMAR and the so-called "Zulu war paint" =/

And his character sounds jank as hell, too. I can't wait to has one. I'm already working on busting..uh...you...Omar =D

Also! Anyone have a scan of Jon? I already knew what he did, but I heard the art was PHENOMENAL. The exact words used to describe his art to me were "roaring 20's gangster in the Sin City art style". DOES WANT O_O

From memory:

potm - asset

2/5 +2m

inf

either player may play resource specific abilities as if their character had the resource

R: after you play a resource ability, draw 1 card

e commit: this attack gets +x damage. x = the amount of resource symbols in your cardpool that match your character.

not jank at all. quite brutal .

i leave you all with this tidbit:

if you only match 1 resource, after all the appropriate E's are played... galactica phantom will punch your opponent in the mouth for 20 and draw you 3 cards.

edit: the E is "E commit:"

.

Now is it total resouce symbols (ie: I play Promo Zi Mei and have 4 fire cards and 2 evil cards) or is it different symbols (ie: I have a fire, a death, and an evil card in my pool)? If it's the former, it's godly, if it's the later, it's jank. Yes it's a free enhance, but it's also an asset in an already asset heavy meta. The other abilites on it are meh, how many resources specific card see play? Spinning Beat... Uhh.... Spinning Beat? Galatica Phantom (which isn't all that good imo outside of Fio)? Begin Anew? (*giggle*)
