Whose the judge in charge?

Also, we'll start talks on the MV soon, I've already started the works, and Khan has some ideas.
Basically.
Find a judge, get them to make a card.
whose the judge for you sacks of flesh?
It depends on how their illusions work if it would make it impossible for me or not, depending on the character. If they have area of attacks for cheap energy cost they can spam that onto every illusion and hope it's the right one, but if not and they get swarmed by a bunch of illusions and the real one, managing to focus on the real one and defeat them out of the entire group would seem meta gaming so they'd need a way to focus on every illusion coming at them at once.


I feel like illusions should generally come with some type of drawback, or way to know(even if your character can't easily figure it out) that it's an illusion. For instance, even in Bleach, Aizen - a well versed illusion guy - had some fatal flaw that allowed the 4th Captain to figure it out(and also to activate it, you had to have made eye contact with his Bankai).

At high levels, you may not need any significant weaknesses in it, because at that level people will probably be busting out of illusions relatively easily. But at lower levels, there should be some drawbacks.

Why not fight a character who specializes in illusions with a character who can't detect them and I wouldn't meta game them? That would be...problematic.


There are always going to be problems, just seems off to go in ahead of time with an ability to counter it. Sounds kinda metagamey to me. Like saying I wouldn't fight a lightning user without a way to ground myself.

Actually, I ended up winning that match with the ninja because of semi- meta gaming my illusion. See I knew early on people meta game. Often without realizing it. But I needed to think of a way my illusions would still matter in the arena. So I devised that, through use of a single prep, my false image doppelganger could be replaced with a real me if it was ignored.

Aside from thinking of some way to IC punish people who meta game, I'm not sure how well an illusionist would work in the arena.


How does that work, exactly? Sounds like a damn if you do, damn if you don't scenario
@MelonHead, in general, that's just good tactics. Hahah

@ImportantNobody, wait... why not?
Wish I had a teeny bit more confidence in beating you, Skall. I haven't beaten you in all the times I've spent fighting you in the past.


Me either, but I'm extremely egotistical and think I can anyway. xD
A poison user that has poisons that cause illusionary hallucinations, and makes it harder for people to detect the poisoner.

The Arena allows for all kinds of styles, subterfuge or nah. Your sword idea woulda been fine, probably, if you just had to prep or something to get the outer bit invisible.
