Ah! I rely on DW's links to vote easily and lazily lol

Anyway, here goes:

Darth Krayt, Overseer of the Purge (Gungan Batman Clone) 9
This custom is very nice. I think it shows just how diverse this character can be; it has almost no elements similar to mine (stats/cost maybe), yet EVERYTHING feels like Krayt. Powerful, and he'll hang around awhile with VC6 + Illusion. Transfer to help get off Triple, then get to the back next round after another Triple and recover the next turn. Pilot makes him even MORE powerful, and makes him potentially longer-lasting (plus it opens up the GMA potential). I think he's VERY powerful (Sense the Future is ALSO a VERY powerful ability, but it does soak up FP's that could be important for combat/illusion, which is why Illusion is that much nicer on this piece, since it means that the opponent is the one who might have to reroll the save 11 with it's precious force and not Krayt). Hopefully not overly so. A+ for representation and ability choice imo. Oh, love the CE too.

Darth Krayt, The One Sith (Lord_Ball) 9
Ability selection seems to fit today's mobile-game (Assault/Riposte with Twin is nice). A bit fragile, but not overly so at his cost I think (compared to the other choices with Krayt). I thought at first maybe he was costed too high since he restricts spirits, but then I noticed the CE (second 'affinity' part); that definitely makes some INTERESTING options. I like the Sith restriction on 'the one sith'; prevents some abuse I think. The 2 or less is good on it, to keep it from getting out of hand. Overall, a though piece to judge, but I like where you went with it.

Darth Krayt, Darkside Empowered (Cerous Mutor) 8
I don't know about handing out Momentum with Bandon running around. The other part of the CE is nice though. VC6 with 160 HP is a lot of staying power, but with little other defense, not too much. ATF Walking is a powerful ability, balanced by Ravaged (a nice ability!). I don't care for Chain Lightning though, honestly . Drain Life can be nice, but does it take effect before or after the 20 damage for ravaged comes off? This could come into effect when a., it would fill him to full (then him take damage after using it) or b., he would die from the 20, and not get to put the rest on possibly? I don't know how the ruling would work on that... The ability choice is good overall (quite a few though!).

Darth Krayt, Dark Lord of the One Sith (AndyHatton) 9
Master Shatterpoint is great! Still tough to use in MOST situations, as it's easy to block/soresy/makashi/etc. etc. the crit these days, since it has to be on the first, but a great improvement over the original in most situations. I don't quite understand the direction you took with Jar'Kai (which is NOT saying I don't think it's right, just that I don't think I understand the style well enough to know whether or not it fits). CE is nice, I like the idea of handing out TttDS since it is so little used. Master Illusion +potential Dark Aura from Exar's Spirit makes for some impossible attacks, but at the cost of 2 force; I like the choice here. Stasis Chamber is cool; quite risky, since he can't renew/give out the CE while in Stasis, so he loses a LOT of his appeal coming in late, but can be interesting.

And, finally, Darth Krayt, Dark Lord in Stasis (saber1) 8
I honestly still have mixed feelings about this one. As I mentioned above, Sense the Future is a very powerful ability (only in two factions thus far) and on this particular piece, it is much easier to justify using/have FP available to use on it than on GBC's version imo, especially giving it to Wyyrlock as well, with Holosid potentially to give him Renewal. The Krayt boosting is flavorful, but less useful than potentially broken imo. In the end, I don't think the chance to bring Krayt in (probably worth essentially 50 or less being brought in by the time the game is a good portion over) comes into play with the costing of the piece/judging (honestly, the save with Recruits running around and such shouldn't be hard to make, and it's still 2/4 if he's last in the squad to bring in another Sith to fight), but this piece is still VERY tough to judge. There are so many possibilities with him. It's hard to wrap your head around 'is he balanced, is he not'... 'is this interaction a good idea or is it not'. One more thing (this is just kind of an after thought and has no effect on judging or anything); I PROBABLY would remove the range 6 on the first part of the CE, since he's kinda meant to be paired with Wyyrlock anyway it would seem, and he has booming voice.

Voting is tough this week, as was judging, but in the end, Darth Krayt, Dark Lord of the One Sith by AndyHatton gets the vote. I considered GBC's version heavily as well, but in the end

I originally was going to cost him in the high 50's, but after comparing him to Darth Caedus, Sith Lord, felt a cost reduction was necessary (especially with his rivalry with Spirits).

Cheers Saber1. That was exactly my aim worked hard on this one

Think this is my first ever vote!

Congrats on the vote Cerous; it is a rush to get that first one! @saber1, great feedback; I definitely will consider rage instead. It would mean recosting him and a bit of a redesign, but it's something to consider. Rage probably fits better. My original intention was to create an interesting mechanic to make both Avoid Defeat and Dispassionate useful and necessary. Not sure it works, and it has made him hard to cost as well, so it may not work.

EDIT: Didn't want to make another post, but this is a reply to AndyHatton below me: Yeah, Dispassionate Killer seems not to have been the most popular choice . I'll probably redesign him.

Hey, DW: I'm going to be busy with Christmas preparations, but I know you probably will be too; if I can find some extra time today, you need me to add up the ratings?

NP! I just wasn't sure since you hadn't been able to do it yet if you were particularly busy this Christmas season.

Third isn't bad lol. I wasn't really familiar with the character, so this gave me a reason and a chance to create him and it turned out to be quite fun!

I'll be honest though, I wasn't sure how saber1's entry would be received, but it seems it turned out quite well! Congrats on a bold move and a well designed custom buddy!

Thanks pegolego. I took your input to heart and very nearly went with another version. However, I am quite fond of this piece and feel it was more fun (for me) than another beatstick. I'm glad it was well received. I'll likely keep tweaking it in the hopes the Vset designers want to make a "Potty Palps" version of another character.

Thanks! Krayt was a very powerful Sith, very under rated. Thats why I made him so beefy. Ravaged is the perfect counter point to his power. Similar to Reborn pals who was consumed by the darkside everytime he used it. Krayts was through the Vong implants that were slowly eating him, but I didnt want to contradict current Vong abilities. He was able to Mind Walk, which is a derivative of Aing-Tii Flow-Walking. I didint want to over complicate him with a VERY complex board wide attack ability.


And Congrats to Saber1 again! Some times you have to go with your gut and go against the grain, I do it too often though
