Weekly Tournament - March 16th - Breaking Up - Upgraded

[Avenger]

blarp: 2
Avenger: 0

GG's Avenger. Best match I've had in a while.

Knowing that your deck was also illegal fills my heart with joy. 

[Rutarete]

Dammit. WAAAAYYY overslept for this one. Congrats Acsabi!

[Kuroaitou]

I really should have called you out on that blarp but... oh well. Ugh.

[Pella]

I spent hours sorting through my still insignificant collection of upgraded cards, building decks, checking the decks against the allowed & banned lists, balancing quanta, and running the decks through their paces.  And then, following Rutarete's lead, I slept. *sigh*

Therefore, I'll never know how my decks would have fared in the tourney.  I know ferdamsure they were legal, though.   Just in case anyone's interested, here are the three best I could muster.

Spoiler for Pella's "Breaking Up" decks:

This one is my favourite.  I call it "Steamfish".

cause its legal? 

honestly im very intrested in how this will went further, cause with this tourney its hard to play another tourney without thinking about the others decks could be illegal... and i think this is not fun...

[Avenger]

I swear I don't care about second place myself now, could be given to Avenger or mrpaper, but this decision is just ridicoulus. It's like taking away gold from Lance Armstrong for doping and then giving him the silver medal instead.

Maybe Paper or Kuro, i had illegal deck as well
But i agree, Blarp didn't deserve any price, he played that deck from the beginning.

...something about this is strange. Is anyone sure he used mark? That is, screenshots?

- he admitted it
- most of his opponents remember it (me included), just forgot to catch it as an illegal move
- TO spectated it

The tournament has one rule.

Somehow, not only a lot of people make illegal decks, but people actually don't recognize the illegal decks when fighting against it, even when it is so blatantly obvious (Blarp).

But somehow, these same people were in war and could notice when they still can use that one more upgrade and comply with the rules for six straight rounds.

I am surprised. XD
