For example, Tony used his Chain lightning against Dash at the END of the ASSAULT phase. Now at one of the "biggest" tourney's in the US, I would of assumed his opponents knew their codex's but clearly not. Tony played out his assault phase THEN played out his chain lightning, and this happened twice. This clearly shows that he had forgot to do chain lightning so did it anyway in the assault phase which cost Dash the game. In my opinion this should of been stopped as if you forget, tough shit, more so on table 1 but maybe that's just me being anal I dunno. Table 8 or 9 where the title isn't being played for I would let that go, but table one round 6 is another story.Killswitchnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1640217576313519402.post-54342094754019021482011-09-05T21:30:42.391+01:002011-09-05T21:30:42.391+01:00One person who played Kopach told me that he is ve...One person who played Kopach told me that he is very knowable and seemed to know the rules inside out.

This was the last game of a fairly intense weekend. I'm sure both players were pretty fatigued at this point, mentally and physically.<br /><br />2. Mistakes happen. If it was accidental, that happens all the time in professional sports where millions of dollars on on the line. Nobody likes it, but it happens. If it was intentional, that person has to live with that knowledge and probably has other issues to deal with.<br /><br />3. It's only a game.<br /><br />I say cut him some slack and move on.
