And I appreciate your perspective. Sniping over something so pointless is just really silly. It's a game, nothing more, nothing less. Game on! |

Re: Worse luck EVER in this game
Bill, I also liked your remark about "Luck is where preparation meets opportunity." That's a fair point and I think that's Codeman's point. I can definitely see that aspect of it.

Re: Worse luck EVER in this game
I don't know about consistent bad luck, but Kelda rolled a 1 3 times in a row to kill my Spiderman, gravely wound Charos, and kill off Darrak Ambershard.
Then I rolled for my bro's 2 life Grimnak just for fun and killed it. |

Re: Worse luck EVER in this game
Worst luck I've ever had:
I played a one-on-one match against my brother on a custom marvel map. I had: Incredible Hulk Silver Surfer Iron Man Captain America Spider Man My bro had: Thanos Abomination Doctor Doom Red Skull Venom ------ My bro systemmatically demolished my entire army without taking a single wound. Some games are won and lost solely by the luck of the die. Last edited by Master of Disaster; July 19th, 2011 at 12:09 AM. |

Re: Worse luck EVER in this game
My friend and I were playing a match with random heroes. He rolled Sonya for his lowest point hero and requested another roll. I said no(that chart only goes up to 50 points so Sonya is a decent roll). He proceeded to destroy my entire army with her never placing an OM on another card and in the end had zero wounds. This is fairly common for me.

Re: Worse luck EVER in this game
Last night I killed Raelin, Mimring, and Carr in 3 different matches with Cyprien and his really frigid fondling.
But, that being said, it's one of the first times I've ever used him effectively. I was famous, once... http://www.heroscapers.com/community/blog.php?b=1715 Visit my site: http://www.superflycircus.com "I'm not cute...I'll mess you up!" ~Jake The Dog |

Re: Worse luck EVER in this game
Some players tend to win more than others, despite the dice. Some players win a *lot* more than others, despite the dice. Countless tournament reports are proof of that.
People can house rule whatever the heck they want, of course. Now shake hands and go your separate ways. /sheesh |

Re: Worse luck EVER in this game
I once had Braxas take out my opponent's Cyprien, Sonya, Venom, Stingers and Dividers. It all went so quick that my opponent never got to roll a single die. We were both laughing at the 20D rolls.
The next game that I played Braxas, I couldn't get a successful PAB roll in 12 tries. I don't believe in luck, but I do believe in mean reversion. |

Re: Worse luck EVER in this game
Ah, yes, variance.
Some units have more variance than others. Play them or not, it's up to you. I suppose Wytefang might be drawn to lower-variance units - squads of knights, say - where other players might not be. That's not a flaw in the game, though, that's a design feature. And Wytefang is of course free to house rule however he wants to reduce variance even further. |
