    I look forward to the first Photoshopped picture of a board with 64 crit tiles. 
    Surely if you were going to crop out the team and photoshop the image you could get at least another 32 critical tiles on there?  :p

    On a side note, if a character were able to create a (obviously non-stable) board of 64 critical tiles, would the resolution of this do any damage, aside from cascade damage from the new 64 tiles?  It seems like a board of 64 crit tiles would simply add a large multiplier onto zero damage (due to no color/team-up tiles being created to set a base damage value, resulting in no damage on the attack, but I am not 100% sure I understand how critical damage works.

    If there's a tie, will it be resolved by time posted or both or all players will get the reward?
    Good question Brigby
    If there happens to be a tie, then we'll go with the usual method of whoever posted first.

    Just tested this. It did an absolute metric ton of damage based off of highest match damage for that character. I mean, it's impossible in a real world situation since the ability would literally have to be "Creates 64 Crit tiles on the board" since any piecemeal addition would match them. But still, technically the system allows for it.
    Thanks, @IceIX    Interesting experiment, if nothing else.


    ...and if you ever made a character with a repeater tile ability that resulted in the placement of 64 critical tiles on the board, over-writing all existing tiles, maybe the forum would be less negative on repeater tiles.  I make no promises, but maybe :)

    The top prize is any 5-star cover of your choice.

    Whatever it takes.  :D

    Since IceIX is ineligible to win because they're a Mod, I'll gladly take the credit for the 64-crit board.  I've even got a picture.



    Let's see...64 tiles, times 5 points per critical.  That's 320 points, right?

    Nah, it's not worth it. We need a specific type of opponent to attempt this. I'm quite sure no one can attempt to beat this at the moment. I might try again if the opportunity comes, but I'm not spending too much time on this.
    Agreed. I've spent too much time on waiting for a lucky board when i could have been maxing out progression in PVE and hitting 900 in PVP and trying to get the 5 star i need that way.
