I'm insane.

In one corner, dropping her gadgets all over the floor, it's Aria played by the undefeated Gutter Owl!



In the other, redefining the term "It looks like a tornado hit this place", it's Pendros played by Wolery!







:frogsiren: Although I have the basic sheets up, PM me the following choices! :frogsiren:

Choice of Normal or Beta Bases
Choice of Normal or Alt UA
Choice of Finisher
Choice of Discard Pairs

For those just spectating, I hope you derive much pleasure from my misery :v:

Gutter Owl, would you rather play standard or beta bases? I feel like we should make the same choice there - I'm not confident standard and beta are evenly matched.

Agreed.

Personally, I'm a boring grandma and would like to use the standard bases, but I'm good with whatever Wolery chooses.

However, I would like to insist on tournament-legal UAs for both of us. I don't actually like the alternate abilities. They're definitely not balanced, and half of them are just lurking rules nightmares waiting to happen. I'm down to screw with them for a half-hour live game, but dealing with them for the better part of a week just isn't my kind of fun.

I think that Tectonic protects Pendros regardless of where the range is being measured from. Please correct me if it doesn't protect him from the Magnetron Droid.

It shoudln't matter where the droids are; Tectonic checks if there's an Environment Marker between him and his opponent, it doesn't care if the opponent's range crosses a marker or anything. Likewise, Laser changes where Aria can draw range from, it doesn't actually act as if she's in any space other than the one she's actually in.
