Phoenix Brawl 6 (Important Venue Change! Details inside)

[Drake12]

Hm, that's cool and no reason to feel shy about it.

I was just thinking... getting to a school in downtown would be pretty bothersome considering you lived in Abbotsford.

Who wants a Smashfest this week (weekday), and which day would you like it to be? I'll try and set it up.

Gravekeepers are apparently really good.

Spoiler

Of course I don't know what Gravekeepers are or anything else about the card game.

Thanks big guy...only thing is I hope to go to the events, like I hope I don't have to go sailing or camping over an important weekend. I'm not shy, I just dunno how you BC folk would react

 

[Asa]

just come to the tournament dude

 

[Kantrip]

Anyone have a green baboon?

 

[Asa]

i do

10weddingrings

 

[Arcansi]

gravekeeper's are good AND cheap

really anti-meta, especially with chaos getting big again

Understand that I have $20 a month reliable income.

Understand that all my magic cards came from a fatpack a starter set, and a couple drafts and basically all I have is besieged/scars.

Sure, I would love to be able to actually get new cards and stuff, but until I do I'm stuck with this.

 

[Asa]

that's cool, you can still have fun with them

 

[DtJ SquidBurrMoneyBurr]

Anyone have a green baboon?

[Asa]

I'm pretty much 100% a competitive gamer.

It actively hurts me to see people doing well against me that aren't using standard legal decks.

It sucks for me, but I manage to deal with it as there is no competitive scene for almost anything here.

 

[Asa]

Calling Dr.Squidd to the emergency room

some poor butt-blasted soul needs a swag transfusion

 

[DtJ SquidBurrMoneyBurr]

dude he's so mad out of nowhere.

Glad I can be his scapegoat.

GET IT LOL YUGIOH TALK

[Arcansi]

I don't understand what just happened.

bring your standard deck(s) to the tournament then! i have a pretty good rogue deck (affectionately called the tier 2 killer by people at my lgs, har har har) and would be happy to play against you, although i should warn you in advance that pretty much everyone hates playing against my deck because it is super good at stalling out matches unintentionally

 

[Kantrip]

I don't know what just happened either lol.

You ask for a defender of the forest and animals from all over the world show up.

Sometimes, you must break the bonds of mortals, and be free.

I will.

My deck's...ok.

I would much rather have it in a way better incarnation that I could write up but not afford/get, but I'm working on a new deck atm so I stopped working on the one I have.

 

[Asa]

Squidd how do you make a burkah?

 

[SKidd]

By not being in France.

 

[Kuraudo]

I play exclusively Sonic and can beat Metal Sonic and Amy quite efficiently in that game. Also, if you wanna be a real man at this game and race down City Escape? Let one person go ahead as the other's on the board and collecting one ring. Don't hit a checkpoint and use Sonic Wind/Chaos Spear/whatever on the other. They're knocked off the board. Die then let the guy who was knocked off hit you when you get a ring. Voila, you're both racing on foot at the start of City Escape.

Also, SKidd, I'm sure you prolly know this one too, but don't let me get 80 rings and burst through a checkpoint. Infinite speed-up is too good, and overlaps when the race is restarted again and again.

 

[DtJ SquidBurrMoneyBurr]

Had to edit the swag, also I have no clue man

Also freaking internet keeps going out

 

[bundtcake]

I will.

well, feel free to proxy cards if you want, i definitely end up making proxy decks fairly often since i'm a budget player

wait is this... competitive sa2b? what

 

[SKidd]

Oh God, multiplayer in SA2B? So much more fun time trialing =D

 

[Kuraudo]

Yeah. At anime conventions maybe.

Amy is broken as hell in Sonic Adventure 2: Battle though. Use her and get 30 rings? Your opponent is stuck and can't move for like...20 or 30 seconds. And it's spammable if she just keeps collecting rings. The only character who can do anything about her 20-ring attack is Metal Sonic with his dark shield (which works great for dropping down quickly or going down hills at a rapid pace), while Sonic & Shadow have the 20-ring intervals for their abilities. Best thing you can do against Amy is beat her to the punch to getting rings whenever possible and screw her over, otherwise she will get ahead once she tells you to just "wait a minute!"

Ugh. Sonic vs. Shadow is the fairest, but Metal Sonic is legit too.

You can glitch the system for Sonic and Shadow when it comes to the Speed Up though. Get 80 rings and use Speed Up, then pass through a checkpoint so you get the speed shoes. You have perma speed shoes/speed-up, even when you restart the race on that level. And it doubles over so you get faster and faster each time you do it.

Pretty fun.

I don't know the standard on anything like this (how much it's reasonable for me to proxy, etc.)

So I just proxied 3 tezz.

I couldn't practice with a deck with more proxies in it anyway because there's already people in my area that deny my proxies.

 

[DtJ SquidBurrMoneyBurr]

Denying proxys is a **** move, honostly spending 180$ on cards to play test a deck that gets shut out of the meta is *** factory, and the nerds who say proxys are noid can suck a fatty.

 

[Asa]

smash_mash if you're serious about a smashfest make a date plz

 

[SKidd]

get on msn kuraudo

i honestly couldn't care less if you proxied every single card in your deck, as long as you actually know your cards well enough or make your proxies detailed enough (ex - make sure you know if a card does or does not say "may", etc)

 

[Alacion]

Lol Amy Rose.

Just wait a minute... just wait a minute... just wait a minute... just wait a minute...

 

[SKidd]

Have no fear,
*twirl*
Amy Rose is here!

There is literally no metagame here, as far as I know.

Nobody runs standard, the only competitive events we have are drafts.

My life is really horrible from a gaming standpoint atm.

I WANT to optimize my deck now. (read as: proxy quite literally 30+ cards)

But the only practice I'll get is with the one other like minded player (he's into drafts, but it's still competition.) in my area. I might, though.

well you could always have a proxy version as well as your actual version of the deck, to keep everyone happy

 

[Arcansi]

I just don't know how much proxieng is acceptable in my region.

 

[Asa]

um.... ask? lol

 

[Captain L]

what is proxying?

 

[bundtcake]

it means playing with a fake version of a card meant to represent the real thing, so if you took say, a worthless common card and wrote over it with a marker to represent a rare card that might be expensive or hard to find, or just printed off a card image and glued it onto a card or something like that
