Good Card, Bad Card #49

Ahhh, spring time, warm weather, birds singing... unless you live in a wasteland like South Dakota or Minnesota I guess. There it must still be bad weather, because another Midwest guy has gone bonkers on me. I got this lovely PM on the CC site the other day from Mr. Kevin Jaeger:

"I didnt call you a name. I stated that I believe you're an idiot....thus proven by the fact that you dont know the difference.

(Then 2 paragraphs of blah-blah listing the reasons why I'm a terrible human being)

YOU GOT YOURSELF FIRED AND NOBODY LIKES YOU. YOU ARE NOT GOOD AT THIS GAME. YOU HAVENT WON A WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP AND NEVER WILL. YOU ARE NOT THAT GOOD. Now go back to your jail cell.

- Kevin

P.S. You wont see me at Gencon. I have better things to do with my time and money then drive 14 hrs and have to see your ugly face walk away from the table mid-game because you're a poor sport that cant handle losing."

OK, the first sentence doesn't make any friggin' sense. That's some fancy lawyer-babble there. That's like Newt Gingrich saying anyone who quotes him from his Meet the Press interview is telling a falsehood. Then came the ANGRY CAPS, not sure why that was necessary. Then he wraps it up with a pretty 'P.S.' (like it's a love letter), saying how he has better things to do then come to GenCon. Funny, since he just spent 10 minutes writing me an angry letter.

So that little mental meltdown earned Kev-Dog the next "Get to know your Trek Player" bio. Hopefully, he'll change his mind, and spend his very valuable time, since money should be no object for a high rolling lawyer like him, and come to GenCon. We also dig into the set 'Strange New Worlds' and find a couple of cards.

Good Card: Calisthenics Opponent

Why: I've always loved Calisthenics Opponent. I used to use him in my Cardassian "Pimp Dukat" (previous good card) deck. Back in the day, when Cluttering Irrelevancies (which would've been the 'bad card' from this set if it never got fixed) was insane, this guy was a beast. Monster attributes and the ability to get any skill, and more attributes, until the end of the mission attempt. I still think he's a beast, and have been thinking about making an all-NA Olarra/Hologram deck featuring him. Not only is he great for gameplay reasons, he's the most badass looking character ever.

Bad Card: Leonard H. McCoy, Remarkable Man

Why: Ironic, our 'bio' is of a player who like to abuse TNG nonsense, and here's a good example. What made absolutely no sense about McCoy was that TNG decks were already strong and Tier-1, yet they still gave them this monster. You know what TNG integrity decks with super-easy missions didn't need, a guy who turns 7 integrity personnel into 9 integrity personnel. Add in a broken Worf who 'scans' your opponents dilemmas, plus some Mot & Vic to cut down dilemma points and you got yourself some hot 'Jaeger Tech' going on.
