Summer Raffle Winner? What would you choose??

[Malik Thanewulf]

Hello forum. The 2020 SUMMER RAFFLE ends soon. I couldn't help but wonder, what would I choose if I won a Diamond saber of my choice. Well, for me, I'm thinking either an Azure Sword of Omens, a Bane or possibly a Dark Graflex. What about you folks? What would you pick? Come on, dream with me. Somebody has to win those Diamond and Emerald sabers!

I have been looking at the higher end hilts and wondering myself what I would choose. So far it seems to depend upon the particular moment I am in.

I mean if I hit any of the top prizes where I have a choice, Diamond, Emerald, or even just Obsidian: Do I go for the expensive ones that I would likely never order on my own since I am a little unsure I even want them, like the Renegade or the Dominicide? Or would it be better to get one that I would actually be willing to pay for (and be much more likely to actually use), once I save up, like the Empress or the Princess?

I'm leaning towards the Empress, 'cause I want like seven of them to play mix and match with the parts, all the parts and a bunch of variations. I mean get the Crimson Empress, then switch out the emitter & pommel with any other color. If it had a red illuminated Black A/V switch and you had black emitter and pommel blazing red blade with silver flash on clash.... <Drool!>

Gotta stop before the keyboard malfunctions. I have no idea what I would choose.

A random Emerald or Obsidian would be epic for me too, the random Li set ups and the grab bags would be less awesome, but still great.

Regardless of how this falls out, win or lose, I'll be happy. (of course it would be nice to win, who am I kidding)

So good luck to everyone who has entered, I wish you all luck. Just not quite as much luck as I wish for myself.

Ooh, that's a good question.....definitely want to aim high if you end up winning one of the brass rings.

It depends; I'd have to ask if the Dominicide is up for grabs.  And the reason I say that is, even though it's two blades, it's one unit.  It's even listed on the single bladed saber menu.  A Diamond or Emerald controller in one of those is too tantalizing to pass up.

And if the Dominicide was not an option, I might go for the Renegade LE.  Maybe.  Nothing's written in stone yet, LOL.

[Starflicker]

I just realized you can mix and match the Dominicide colors too...

Guess I need to get that one, likely crimson or azure, if that is an option, then but the extra emitters as parts.

If I were to win a diamond prize I'd probably be willing to swap it with an obsidian winner. I'm not into color changing.
But if I had to choose a saber, since I have an empress and a spectre on the way, I'd probably go with a fallen. Maybe a crimson one with silver blade. Or an LE one. Or a butcher. Or a grandmaster... Aaaaaaaaah

If I won, I would buy a LE Fallen with an SRD blade whether it's a stunt, Obsidian, or a diamond saber

Ah, but if you won, you wouldn't have to buy it.

It was a typo, I mean I would get

LOL...can't blame you for picking the Fallen, though.

Yeah... The more I look at pictures of fallen the more I want one

You DO WANT TO OWN A FALLEN. It is so comfortable,  so lightweight,  and it's just a great looking saber. My Crimson Fallen (emerald and sound) is a favorite for sure. You won't regret owning one.

You are so not a voice of reason xD
I know I'd love it. I was considering an emperor's hand because they seemed to have them in stock. But then I looked at the canon one and I noticed it US' version lacked the green and red LEDs on the activation box and that the activation box was misplaced. And my need for accuracy kicked in ...

I have no desire at all to own a Fallen. Just doesn't do anything for me.

I also would trade down if I got the Diamond or Emerald prizes, as again, color changing just doesn't do anything for me. I'm not even real keen on getting FOC.

Hilt list in no real particular order:

Flamberge
Overlord
Dark Shock
Dark Arbiter
Bellicose
Or maybe just another DSI.

OR just tell them "surprise me." That could be fun. I've always thought it was better to be a lower tier winner, simply for the surprise factor. Yes, you can get a more expensive saber with a higher tier win, but with the lower tier ones you have the extra excitement of not knowing what you're getting until it arrives.

[Malik Thanewulf]

Sakura o Kraze, I'm here for you. If we win and you're stuck with the diamond prize,  I will happily switch prizes with you. I'll tell you which one I want,  and I'll send you whatever they give me.( won't tell you what it is..don't want to ruin the surprise)

If I was ever able to enter one and won, probably also either a classic Bane or Graflex SE saber or maybe a Chosen One for my Vader fanboy side
