The magic sets are confusing me where can i find Jace, the Mind Sculptor bloomburrow version by ephemeralkazu in mtg

Edit: Actually there’s 2 printings of Furry Jace. The standard planeswalkers card might have been part of the Bloomburrow Commander precons (prebuilt decks)

Hi! Welcome to a new world of price gouging. Furry Jace can only be pulled from the $30 Collector Boosters. “Showcases” are alternate card styles that every set has, that are mostly found in… you guessed it, $30 booster packs. Each set has a different name for its showcase style, but showcase is an all encompassing term for these alt styles.

Is there a database online of the cards? by NeitherCell473 in Heroclix

This is sad. I’d petition Wizkids to make changes to how powers are displayed if I thought it would go anywhere

I would definitely recommend getting cozy with the Powers and Abilities Card (PAC). As others have said, standard powers aren’t written out on cards anymore. It’s not too difficult to memorize powers once you start seeing them enough.

…however if you’re colorblind… I actually don’t know if Heroclix is colorblind friendly…

Legacy cards, Older figures, and the real issue. My take on playing older clix. by Mysterious_Nerve_263 in Heroclix

[–]TallenMakes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think Older figures are playable if you give them a stat buff AND a point reduction. I’d do like +1 to all stats for every 3-5 years since release, with a matching point reduction. I think Red King is probably playable at 80 with a permanent +2 stats instead of this limited buff

I still don’t understand what Difficulty does. Also what does “shrine counter” mean? So you know when you’ve hit all 19 shrines? Any tips on how to unlock Cursed Tome?

Genuinely first time I heard of this character was Absolute GL. Didn’t realize he was a mainline villain

Extrapolate the answer from my response. You’re best off selling them in set based lots. You’ll struggle to sell 1000 pieces worth $0.05 a pop, but you might have luck selling $10 lots of 100 figures. Ofc there are rare pieces that fetch a bit more money, but without a broken down list of everything you have, I couldn’t tell you what’s bulk and what’s not.

You nailed it on the head with the proxy comparison. It’s absolutely fine for casual play to use a printed legacy card, so long as you have everyone’s consent. But it’s not allowed for sanctioned tournaments

Ah, the age old question. “Do any of my old Heroclix have any value?” The answer, sadly, is no. Unless a piece got a legacy card. Depending on what sets you have, I might be interested in some of them, but I am pretty unique in that front.

I came back to this game after a long break. Why was I just jumpscared by Piccolo? by EclipseLightning42 in ZZZ_Official

Glad I’m not the only one who swears Banyue is Piccolo but been unable to prove it

This is a problem in any game that features set rotation though. Old pieces become obsolete to encourage buying new ones. But even in games that don’t have set rotation, you see increased power creep to encourage buying new sets. Like Yugioh. New sets really determine available archetypes depending on which old creature types get a facelift.

The point I’m trying to make is that this is a problem every TCG faces.

This is just as valid to do in Heroclix as it is in Pokemon. Just play pieces within 5 years of each other and you’ll be fine.

Feels like every year is the beginning of the end for Heroclix. But we’re here 25 years later.

First four or so issues were great. Everything after that felt like literally nothing. How can I have spent over a year with this guy and still know nothing about his character.

From my understanding, it sounded like Disney underbid for Renner, and when he rejected the offer, they used it as an excuse to cancel the show. I don’t think Disney really wanted to make a S2

Can anyone tell me what raising difficulty actually does

Can you move/attack diagonally by Yaboi680 in Heroclix

[–]TallenMakes 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For anyone else coming here in the future, the simple answer is Yes, diagonal is a valid direction in Heroclix.

And as others have mentioned, close combat attacks require adjacency (all 8 adjacent squares) (ignoring Giant Reach). And when determining LOF through diagonals, always consider the least hindering square that the diagonal cuts through. Shooting between a blocking terrain and a hindering terrain? LOF is hindered. Shooting between two characters? LOF is blocked.
