Dear HeroClix Masterminds,
As we move on from the US National Championships towards the WizKids World Championship in Memphis, the Rules Team are analyzing the tournament data and feedback from that event. To ensure that players have the most time possible to team build for the World Championships, we are expediting the Watch List process. This means that we will not be able to provide a list of the game elements being examined, and will instead be directly presenting any needed errata or bans. We expect to post the results of this expedited Watch List by Friday, August 16.
Going forward we will return to the previous model of Watch Lists, though we will use the expedited model when necessary.
Thank you,
– The WizKids Team
The HeroClix Watch List is a process by which we identify figures and/or other game elements that we feel may have an undue influence on the game of HeroClix. Being on the “Watch List” in and of itself is not an errata or change to these figures/game elements, but rather an indication that these figures/game elements are under review and scrutiny and action may be taken on the figure/game element if we feel that it would be in the best interest of a fun and healthy HeroClix game play environment. The actions that may be taken can range anywhere on the spectrum of no changes at all (if we determine after review that we see little to no negative impact on game play from the figure/game element in question) to banning the figure/game element (if we determine after review that there is no reasonable fix that would reduce or eliminate the negative game impact of the figure/game element in question).
