Onslaught

1) Dracula plays "Lord of the Vampires" and you later place Lifeblood to Team Overpower. This is just funny in itself, but then later your opponent decides to offensively negate your Lord of the Vampires. Say Dracula has been KO'ed, now you have a dead special placed on Team Overpower for the rest of the game.

2) You play Techno-Virus on a character and land a few unblockable hits that would normally classify for a spectrum KO. Later on you DoW your opponent to give him incentive to use Lil' Iceman, which he does. Techno-Virus is then removed, and his character is KO'ed.

3) The old running joke about how to make the biggest possible attack in Overpower....

The event to keep all duplicates is played, and you have an 8 intellect power card and a 6+3 basic universe placed to Mr. Fantastic. Your opponent bet 7 so you have a 13 card hand, and during battle you play Inventive Genius, Light Constructs, and Keeyah to draw 9 cards. As it turns out, all 19 cards in your hand are Mr. Fantastic's "Ingenuity" special card. You play the 8 + 3 with all 19 ingenuity, allowing for an attack of 1,572,867.

You can get a lot bigger attacks if you dream up ways to get more cards placed or through other event combinations, but they all end up using an AK coded special to make stuff in the millions.

Anyway, what improbable and amusing situations can you come up with? If any of them happened during an actual match instead of a thought experiment, then that's even better!

using morbius's negate to negate your own techno virus for the KO was actually a stratagy my friend used in one of his "non-mainstream" strength decks when IQ first came out. In fact you could in theory if you built your deck around this strat:  BQ for the techno virus (and since you stacked your deck with 1-2 power cards) do this to at least two of the opponents heroes (more if you play DPS events with new lease on life).


The Dude

Hitting an opponent with one of his own cards.

Opponent is using either Captain Britain or the Outback homebase and makes basic universe count for damage and venture.

I'm using Black Cat. She Cat Burglar's one of his basic universe cards usable by her (obviously more likely with an Outback team than Capt. Britain unless he's teaming with Nightcrawler at Muir Island) and the attack hits.

You have now successfully hit an opponent with one his own cards for damage and venture.
