Hello everybody out there in HeroClix land this, once again, is Scott Porter! I am here to invite you to our FOURTH annual “Heroclix for Huntington’s” event weekend, an incredible Heroclix event taking place in-person and virtually May 1st through 5th, 2024. “Heroclix for Huntington’s” is held in partnership with WizKids and ROC, and it is all to benefit the Huntington’s Disease Society of America (HDSA) and their fight against this terrible disease. Everyone who takes part in this event is a superhero to a family in need for sure.
We will have something for every HeroClix fan out there all weekend long!
-Wednesday evening is reserved for our “Tracy Brock Memorial” 3v3 sealed welcome event, the start of our virtual battle royales, and our incredible auction goes live on Auxxit!
-Thursday starts our in-person battle royales, continues our virtual BRs, and adds some competitive ROC singles qualifying events.
-Friday holds our “Scott Porter Invitational” extreme highlander team tournament focusing on community and fun team building and the Battle Royals, both in-person and virtual, continue with me joining the fray!
-Saturday will be glorious. We start with our “Scott Porter VS the World” SUPER Pre-Release Sealed Event where we will unveil the new “Deadpool / Weapon X” HeroClix set OVER ONE MONTH ahead of its release. So come on down, be amongst the first to play this murderously fun set, and try to take me down along the way (yes! I will be playing). For those who can’t attend the event in-person, don’t worry, as we still will have our massive online auction hosted by Auxxit, open to everyone, ending on Saturday Night!
-Sunday closes out the weekend on a competitive focus, giving us the grand “ROC World Championship” as well as more Battle Royals.
Now, what is Huntington’s Disease and why is it worth battling for a cure? HD is a genetic neurodegenerative disease often referred to as having ALS, Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s all rolled into one. It is called the “quintessential family disease” as every child of an HD positive parent has a 50/50 shot of inheriting this destructive disease. There are approximately 41,000 symptomatic Americans battling HD (including my own mother-in-law), and over 200,000 Americans who are gene-positive (like my own wife) or at-risk of being HD positive.
As you can see this is personal for me. The HDSA motto is “Family is Everything” and now I turn to you, my HeroClix family, for help. I have been a part of this incredible community since the day the game released. I have been a player, an envoy, an ambassador, and your unboxing guy for the better part of two decades and I have witnessed the incredible spirit this community possesses. I humbly ask you now to join us this weekend and help us battle this thing together.
The prizing for this event is out of this world, chock full of all the goodies you have come to expect at major events (factory sets and LE’s etc) as well as incredible auction items you will only find at the “Heroclix for Huntington’s” event weekend including unreleased products and one-of-kind pieces. We will have tournament legal Limited Edition Bystander Tokens and Maps only available through this event. And, of course, we are still the ONLY place to win our one of a kind prizes: “Design a Legacy Card” - where you pick an old figure to receive the legacy card treatment and to release in an upcoming HeroClix set.
-“Design a Bystander Token” which will premier at next years HeroClix for Huntington’s event and be a fully, tournament legal, a part of HeroClix.
-And our “Become a SwitchClix” prize, where you become a part of the game, designing a sculpt of yourself that can be placed on any SwitchClix base.
All of this fun and excitement is for an amazing cause as we try to use our collective community might to end Huntington’s Disease and support those living with it.
So, let’s roll some (virtual) dice and raise some (real) money for this incredible organization! Every cent raised will go directly to the HDSA to arm them in their fight for a cure and their mission to support those tens of thousands of Americans battling HD right now.
