TOURNAMENTS Q&A
Q: Pictures?!
A: Here is a picture of the cards that can contribute to 'six of sixes':
Q: Can I have less than six of a card that costs six quanta, but still have a total of six cards that cost six quanta? Example: 4 Ghost of the Past and 2 Eternity
A: No. But for the given example, it is possible to use six Ghosts of the Past and less than six Eternities. As long as the deck contains six copies of at least one six cost card.
Q: Why has six been consistently typed out in letters when you usually type such numbers in... numbers?
A: What? Oh. I'm just following the pattern laid out to me in the ideas section!
Thanks to Basman-1453 for this tournament idea (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/pvp-tournaments/post-your-tournament-ideas-here/msg1257238/#msg1257238)!

Make example decks,please.
Im not sure abouth :
deck must also contain exactly six unique cards (Mark Cards, Pillars, Pendulums, and 'six of sixes' included).

A bit confusing rules.exactly six unique cards usually means there are six different cards in the deck, some with multiple copies.
Make example decks,please.
Im not sure abouth :
deck must also contain exactly six unique cards (Mark Cards, Pillars, Pendulums, and 'six of sixes' included).
An example deck might look like this
6 unique cards, 6 aflatoxin (6 of 6)

That example deck is correct. Some more examples:A bit confusing rules.exactly six unique cards usually means there are six different cards in the deck, some with multiple copies.

An example deck might look like this
6 unique cards, 6 aflatoxin (6 of 6)
6 Unique cards (Mark of Time, Time Factory, Time Pendulum, Procrastination, Golden Nymph, Golden Hourglass) 6 of at least one 6 cost card (Procrastination)
6 Unique cards (Dark Pendulum, Voodoo Doll, Nightfall, Dusk Mantle, Vampire Stiletto, Butterfly Effect) 6 of at least one 6 cost card (Dusk Mantle)
6 Unique cards (Quantum Pillar, Sundial, Unstable Gas, Bone Wall, Miracle, Ice Bolt) 6 of at least one 6 cost card (Unstable Gas)
6 Unique cards (Dark Pendulum, Voodoo Doll, Nightfall, Dusk Mantle, Vampire Stiletto, Butterfly Effect) 6 of at least one 6 cost card (Dusk Mantle)
6 Unique cards (Quantum Pillar, Sundial, Unstable Gas, Bone Wall, Miracle, Ice Bolt) 6 of at least one 6 cost card (Unstable Gas)
This tournament looks like it's going to have a pretty narrow range of decks, considering 4/10 "six of sixes" are permanent shields, which no-one wants 6 of in a deck. I'm not seeing a deck with 6 eternities working very well either.But each of them are so annoying.
I had a whole story about their usefulness ready, too. But I guess we'll see by the end of the tournament. By then I'll (be allowed to) say why I thought they were good enough to build decks around.

Edit: no public meta discussion, not even by me :silly:

Soooo... are we not allowed to use those decks?

I made them crappy on purpose: use them if you want.

One other thing, if RT is banned, are we not allowed to use Eternity's "reverse" skill?

I noticed this deck is illegal (it was wrong to add both fog and deflag) so technically in first round against glennfoo the standing should be 1-1

It looks like 3.3 of the rules allows me to go unscathed though (if a match is done and there was no request for a legality check illegal decks wont get punished).
Being a single card off (that didn't win me the game, in fact I didn't draw it) is probably the smallest offense I could come up with, but its still clearly a mistake that had a small chance to change how things went.
