Hey everyone and welcome back to the blues effect. Since last week there have been mysterious ads popping up all over the blogosphere with catchy catch phrases that kept many guessing at what it could mean. You can see some of these ads here, here and here. After discussions and debates everyone over on the forums deducted that the ads where in fact the remaining half of the marvel equipment mini-set expansion. Low and behold those deductions where correct! You hand find the first preview of the unreleased half of the meq set over at carlos the dwarths blog here!
you can also find more light to this mystery in the origins of these unreleased cards here

hey everyone and welcome back to the blues effect.I know i havent posted in the past few days as i usually do to entertain you all with vs goodness. The reason for the gaps in postings is that i have been really busy. I work for my family’s Graphic installation company where we specialize in advertisements and i have had my hands full installing this beauty

on quite a bit of buses. So my crazy work schedule may get in the way in the daily up dates ( you can blame the watchmen, and my father ..cough.. boss..cough.lol) but i will get back on the ball as soon as i can.

Hey every one and welcome back to the blues effect. I would like to inform you all that the battle in the apple in nyc was a huge success. I was very proud to see that the Vs system community was in full force supporting this event. For those of you who couldn’t make, I have promised you a tournament report and you all shall have it. My write up of the modern event of the battle in the apple can found here at vssystem.org, the new mothership for vssystem.
The modern event wasn’t the only tournament to take at this venue. There was also a silver event that was played right after the modern. You can find the tournament report for the silver event written by Rob HERE, which is also on vssystem.org.
If you’re not really into tournament reports, how about some video coverage of the event. Alex (0range_soda_man) posted some youtube videos from his recordings of the battle in the apple over at his blog, vsunleashed. Be sure to check it out, it’s a fun watch with a few laughs.
Well, that is all for this installment of the blue effect
Until next time,

Hey everyone and welcome back to the blues effect. The New York City Comic Con off-site tournament, Super Saturday, is just one day way! My excitement continues to grow as the hours and minuets pass by making the event ever so close.

Hey everyone and welcome back to the blues effect. The future of vs system looks very promising after the abandonment by ude. The game as you know it is in the reigns of the fans, and a huge milestone has taken place. The launching of the new “mothership” website has finally commenced. Vssystem.org will be the forefront of the vs system fan movement. Details of the new site can be found here
This is a new beginning everyone! For a great and bright future of this glorious game!

Hey Everyone and welcome back to the blues effect. I know i haven’t posted in a while but in all honesty there hasn’t been much to talk about that hasn’t been said already. Especially with the current state of the game still being worked out. With the future of vs being completely fan made from here on out one would be strongly looking forward playing with some awesome new cards.
