From the Shadows
The week before last turned out to be a false start, trying to organise something designed to be a random spew didn’t enthuse me towards this most fulfilling of activities. Finishing the Bizarro articles now seems a little redundant, with the first mega-weekend out of the way, but it served its purpose in allowing me to work out just how much bloggage my life can handle. I’m sorry to have had been away, but there’s just so much work to be done in term time, with the getting ready to go to uni, and A-levels and all
However, getting noticed and linked by both Brian Foley and Rian Fike has shown me that what I write does get noticed, and with blog views holding steady (even spiking) during my absence, I’ve decided it’s a duty I want to take to provide you guys with some more interesting stuff… And to start it off, here’s a little pet project I’ve started that I want to tease you with a preview from:
My Version of Marvel Universe
I’ll leave you with the card image for now, and tell you more about this blog-project tomorrow:

Points Store Update!
Yes, you heard me right. Alongside the restocking of X-Men Assemble! (and Bishop, for some strange reason) come the 6-elite series cards, and two of the expected three Points Store exclusives (wtf is up with that, lol)… Breeding Pens doesn’t look to hot, but I’m feeling some serious Holocaust love… Makes picking up those cheap DWF boxes I found even more tempting, if just for the points… Hmmm…
MEMO TO SELF: Build Doom Patrol / Holocaust deck
These new memo things are more for me than for you, and serve as reminders to give me something interesting to talk about when I’m unable to think of anything else
The Mega-Weekend Concludes
Still waiting to officially hear the fallout, and see the top 8 decklists; but with over 100 players the first VS System Megaweekend of the Year has drawn to a close. Check out Carlos the Dwarf’s blog at www.vs-blog.com, www.vsrealms.com and www.vssystem.com for more information! Looked like a blast, and makes me want to make my way down to the London UK BYOS Nationals more than ever! It’s just a case of keeping the parents sweet, and willing to act as a parental taxi… Maybe I should’ve got some driving lessons instead of my playset of Mobilize… NAH
BYOS Decks
Still no idea what I’m going to take, I’ve built and have been testing:
Wild Vomit
Checkmate/Villains United
Common Enemy
Brave and the Bold
Good Guys
and there’s a load more decks I want to build and test with and against:
Some sort of Squadron Supreme Varient
Avengers Reservist
Brotherhood Reservist
TNB
Faces of Evil
MKKO
Venom Burn
Sinister Syndicate Beats [MTU]
Darkseid’s Elite Substabuse [DLS]
World’s Finest
That-Fantastic-Four-Deck-That-Carlos-Uses
Punisher [MVL]
Riddler Abuse [DCL]
And they’re just the ones I can think of off the top of my head….
Hmmm…. Looks like I’ll be catchin you guys tomorrow, I need to order some singles ¬_¬”

PS: Mad props to everyone who went to, and helped in running the Mega Weekend; even though there was no official coverage and I couldn’t go for obvious reasons (such as the Atlantic Ocean), it has (in conjunction with the points store update) refuelled my lust for VS! Bring on 2008 and MVU!!!!
