Yeah! Let's do it!

But in all seriousness, I was actually thinking that they may be drawing inspiration from a as-of-yet concept of that Generations Rattrap toy that is more than likely true.

This almost makes me wish I had a smart phone. I'm glad to see yet another sign that we are possibly on the verge of a serious Beast Wars revival.

Damn it, why did it have to be Beast Wars? I LOVE BEAST WARS! And I'll never get a full set of the cards from this event because I'm not willing to pay $300 or more for the top cards. I don't even care about their stats, I just want the cards themselves. Oh well, I'll push for a T2 finish.

Also, it seems I used my extra Elita One from last month as upgrade fodder. Now I hope they change the login bonus next month so I don't forever regret not being able to have five full E1s after four months.

Anyone else notice that Dinobot is apparently aligned with the Predacons for this? He's attacking Autobots in his beast mode art.

You have to remember, though; Dinobot was briefly a Predacon during the outset of the original show.

Not really digging the card art, but it's very interesting to see BW guys slaughtering G1 looking generics. So is part of the premise here that the Beast Wars happen in a G1 "present" on some alien world, and search parties hunting for the Axalon and Darksyde get overwhelmed by their crews, who've gone feral? I almost feel like this is set in the original BW microcontinuity, implied by the mini-comic, early bios, and jigsaw puzzles.

Did any of the previous campaigns' cards feature redshirt disposal on this scale?

I know. Just pointing it out.

I've never felt Legends events to be very concerned with continuity. The story scraps they throw together have pretty much no bearing on gameplay.

Well, I could have finished in T2, but I didn't pick up the game on Sunday or Monday, which was a mistake, and I can't play during the final hours of events on Tuesdays. Finished around 2100th place, so no Rhinox for me. I did manage MTM'd Dinobot and Scorponok with weapons, and Dinobot is still in my deck, above stage 2 Ironhide and fully evolved Jazz and Hoist, all with their signature weapons. I haven't upgraded Cheetor or Rattrap yet. I'm sure Rattrap won't make my deck, but Cheetor might make the bottom slot. Time to do some farming for the next couple events to rebuild my supply of cubes.

Well, we got a Generations Rattrap alright, but it's pure S1 design, not like the card art for this event. So the artist was just feeling creative, I guess.

Not to mention that it's not really purely based on Rattrap's season one appearance, but a mix of his IDW and season one appearances.

Wow, Thunderwing, Nova Prime Nemesis Prime, RoadBUSTER at last, perhaps making up for the RoadBURNER fiasco...

...AND the Filmation Ghostbusters crossover that...no one asked for! They did include Primal last time, who could go undercover as Tracy...

They named an event after me? Awww, they didn't have to.

Is it just me, or does the art look a little different... almost as if someone from IDW did them. :-?

Looks like they not only gave Nova Prime a new design, but also took a page from MMCs book and gave him the Star Saber!

Yup. This is the first "cell shaded" event.

It'll be fun! :KREMZEEK:

Seriously don't. The event is bugged to high hell and you can get 9 Mirages if you apply yourself. Nova and Nemesis have no practical use when the opponent base is nothing but low-level players.

EDIT: Aaaand right as I say that, they fix the matchmaking so you're not fighting level 8 opponents. Buzz on the chatroom is that R3 weapons are the best defense against high decks, because of their triple attack ability.

This is what happens when the quote code is buried strangely and I don't bother to check which person in the chain wrote the post in question. My apologies.

yup,as soon as matchmaking got fixed, my ability to advance went out the window. I still only have a 9700 strength deck, they're shoving me up against 12000+ strength decks -_-

What is going on with Cliffjumpers gun? There is a second, disembodied turret floating next to the one attached to his arm. Someone forgot to hide a layer in photoshop.
