A friend of mind had his hero made at Nats last year. He requested Purple, but it was printed Blue. The Reg entry for his card says Purple. How does he go about using it as Purple?

No problem...

Good idea...I actually hadn't considered that. Thanks for the thought!

Btw are these cards staying legit through the 2011-2012 season? I havnt heard any talk about this since the cards first came out...

better then what i did to mine,  lets just say keeping it in the trunk of my care for a year, was not nice to the card, pretty sure it was heat that melted the numbers right off mine.    So i have white No SA no number character. (no sa was my choice)

Joining the ranks of Jochebed, Bravery of Priscilla, etc.

I believe that whether or not they will continue to be legal is being talked about right now.     I personally hope that they continue to be legal but its not up to me.   

Me too.  I hope they do it again so I can get one.

Why would a custom hero with a bland special ability become illegal for tourney play?

I was actually just trying to make a point (though is appears it was a particularly poor one). I didn't actually pay for my own custom hero, it was graciously taken care of for me by someone else.

Regardless, I don't see a reason for them not to continue to see play. The only ones I've seen used are the Access to All Sites ones, and most brigades do that better already. I would find it a bit ironic that 20+ cards could potentially get banned, after this long with no cards being banned previously (though this is obviously a different scenario).

Me, neither. I'm all for them leaving the ones already made as they are and not allowing more printed. That way I don't have to decide if I want to buy one this year.

Actually, if more people can get them this year or at any point in the future, I think the biggest decision will be whether the options should remain the same to make it "fair" to everyone, or if they should change it up.

I didn't really pay attention to them since I couldn't make it to Nationals last year, but I probably would get one this year if they have them just because it's a cool idea.

Perhaps they are more prevalent elsewhere, but I haven't seen a single one played, so I can't imagine they are overpowered enough to have them cease being tournament-legal. The biggest issue would be knowing if it's real or not for a host that hasn't seen one before (like me), or doesn't know who had them made since they can't access the REG due to lack of internet at a tournament location (used to be me).

I've seen Jonathan Greeson play his a few times, but like SomeKittens said niether of them are OP'ed. Plus Christian Martyr becomes hilarious

whats fun is removing them from the game. "what but i still wana play"

The John Earley card is kinda OP. It's an NT animal that can recur Benedictus. Oh, and it's female.

QFT.

I did go 5-1 at NC regionals with it in the deck..... I don't think it ever made a succesful rescue though. It did 'Lay down it's Life' to help Susanna win the final rescue vs Martin though.

Now I really wanna make an OP'd card of myself.

And the fact that I'm one of two warrior-class females in the game (another female made a red hero). But that's not OP'd, I don't even use it, even though I should.

You should seriously consider fighting crime and taking down a very tall man.
