Special Mark cards can be obtained by winning a tournament. In the past, they were also winnable from the slots, but now it's replaced in the spins by a Relic.

Huge majority of players don't have these cards, and probably have never even seen them.

This is the reason why. The majority of players have seen Nymphs and rare weapons, but not mark cards. It's simple logic that the former two should be allowed while the latter is too rare to be allowed.

Plus, I highly doubt any team consists of a bunch of players whom all have the same mark cards.  The value of a mark card is bragging rights, and maybe protection against earthquake/tridents.  It's rarity surpasses it's value.

YES!

and exactly that is the reason. we are always trying to make tournaments open for more players, and with mark-cards, they will ask where they are from, we could tell them: from tournaments. at least the master of their team could tell them, so theyll maybe join tournaments in the future.

Let it in there. I don't think it does too much harm.

i dont understand what the big deal is... they help much less than nymphs so they wont be making it so that better players get more advantages and like antagon said they will spark more interest in tournaments...

I voted "I dont care". They give very small advantage to the player in the team that has those, while being an alien in the vault for those teammates who cannot use them. I dont have any mark cards, but dont have anything against them being used against me.

Not allowing marks is silly.  Team Air is better if it recruits players who have owl eyes and blue nymphs.  Why WOULDN'T that extend to marks?  War is supposed to draw the best players, many of whom have placed in previous tourneys.  Why penalize winners who opted for marks over nymphs?

Note: I don't have any marks.

Icy: concern that a player in the War might not know what a mark is because they're too rare... well I have some concerns over team aether.

The problem I see is that some marks are probably much more common there other. I don't know for sure, but I've mostly seen :fire marks. Maybe they were the most common when they were winnable from slots, because that would cause a 'chain reaction' :P

Am I right? Because if there is indeed such an imbalance in the number of marks and allowing them would in fact affect only a few teams that actually have these, then I'm against.
May the force of the D4HK side be with U ^_^

I asked because I think the poll was at 6 "yes" and 8 "no" before your post... I could've been wrong though...
