So on friday we are having an Insanity Tournement, but we are turning the insanity keyword off, meaning that you could play Certifiable, but it wont do anything.
So I had my heart set on my beloved Doom/Inhumans that was wrecking house. Seriously, free stunning/bouncing/exhausting. It had lots of neat little tricks in it that I was loving, like Doom double time theifing and maybe a third with Siphon energy, which against insanity, is fun.
Talia bringing in a Crime doctor, Comissioner Gordon, Doctor sun and Boris. Boris is the Funnest though, because I have a LOT of random tech cards, because well I can get them with Boris and Attilan.
But we had a MASSIVe 19 1/2 gaming marathon on sunday night. Ha! Gaming, just VS to be perfetcly honest. If you have been reading my blog before, you will know about my horrendous luck whenever I play anywhere I get shite draws, and all sunday night, it was crapping out on me. Like I would draw Blackbolt(8), Sub Mariner(7) Invisible Woman(7) and Omnipotence, which is an incredibly fast mulligan. Then I would draw Pathetic Attempt, Siphon Energy, Doomstadt and Latveria. It was like this all night, and as much as I would like to think that I was getting all of my bad luck out of the way, I just don’t trust myself.
So, I set about making a deck, but I don’t want to spoil my secret so I will wait until saturday before revealing it.
So, over the past fortnight we recruited a new player. So, since he has a very limited amount of cards, I set about making him a deck. A simple curve X-Men deck is what we created. Nothing too complicating as to screw him with some complicating rules and plays, just a lot of aggro, defence and recovery.
It has been playing the nuts. I mean it is working like nobodies business, and he enjoys it. Which is the main thing right? It works similar to his X-Men deck, which happens to be Modern punks and is good.
Then, we built my cousin RD52169 an insanity deck. It is a concealed beats deck of no particular team. he enjoys it and it annoys me. To say it is a concealed beats deck my deck has about a 50-50 chance against it after about 7-8 games.

So, this is my list, and so far I am finding that Mattie franklin, is the NUTS. If I can draw into a Daily Bugle, she is simply amazing.
So, I have one spare slot. An 8 drop, now of course, the cosmic Spider-Man would be my best bet, but the problem is…I don’t own, nor have access to any. So at the moment I am running Hyperion, and am ditching my cards before he hit play to the Amazing Spider-Man. I want something that has a greater level of oomf, but I am not sure what as of yet.
So, Rob has just decided that he wants to back out of the tournement and just write a report. I like, no I love reports but that is just a weenie ass idea. Therefore tonight I get to work on a JLA deck and as many others I can sent his way.
Urgh, all night. All night making VS decks on the realms with a beer in my hand? Can you think of anything worse, I mean Eliza Dushku may as well walk in…i’m in for one hell of a rough night.
