Swedish wind 2024 Top Cut

Image
 Top Cut!!!! No matter how bad I played or how horrible my dice treated me, I made it to top cut so it was time to turn on the skill and learn from yesterdays mistakes. My first game I'm up against Erich, who was one of the Austrians that lost to us in the finals of the WTC. I knocked him out in the semifinals of the European Master of Warmachine back in 2015. Since then this is our first chance for a rematch. So I'm expecting a lot of terror.  He has brought Asgard with him, and I've been playing a lot of Asgard since I think they're a viable choice for the WTC, if you want to go for a team that's a little more janky and is all pay to flips. What my experience has taught me is that Sword sucks for Asgard and Thor hates facing ASM.  He wins priority, picks his own blues and gets Sword, I pull Skrulls. I pick 20 points and we're off to the races. On this setup I can play both Black Order and Webs but Black order doesn't like Asgard, and webs do so my choice i

Swedish Wind 2024 Day 1

For the Swedish wind I was preparing a new version of my WTC list but I went 2-10 with it while practicing during the week before the tournament so I lost all confidence and went with comfort. For me that's Black Order and you might as well throw a Webs splash into that since why not? It's not like Black Order needs all the character slots because Black Order only has 3 playable characters.  Roster Characters (10) * Amazing Spider-Man (5) Black Cat (3) Ghost Spider (3) * Spider-Man (Miles Morales) (3) Wong (2) * Black Panther (4) Baron Zemo (3) Corvus Glaive (Reality) (5) Proxima Midnight (3) * Thanos, The Mad Titan (Mind, Space) (8) Team Tactics (10) Brace for Impact (R) Patch Up (R) All Webbed Up Spider-Tracker Fall Back One-Two Punch No Matter the Cost Mission Objective I Am A Baron, After All Mothership Secure Crisis Riots Spark Over Extremis 3.0 (D, 17) Cosmic Invasion! Black Order Descends on Earth (D, 16) Infinity Formula Goes Missing! (B, 17) Extract Crisis Fear Grips W

My thinking for WTC factions

  Factions for WTC. Wakanda. Big shocker, highest win rate faction only really bad against convocation. People think the advanced RnD and spirit of Wakanda combo needs to be nerfed. Drawback at the WTC: very few characters in faction and many of their options are bad. Which creates a big need for splash characters, then also the fact that Storm is the best xmen leader, leads to a lot of character problems. Web Warriors.   Webs are the third highest win rate faction, they have a solid core set of characters and don't fight for a lot of splashes. They can also avoid researcher which is a known web Warriors problem or tech in a second faction to solve it for them. I think webs are especially good at the WTC where every roster is a bit weaker so their power level is even higher.  Drawbacks at the WTC: A lot of the objective steals people tech into their lists are Web Warriors. Convocation Four threat modok and 5 threat Ultron can be played on every threat 17+ and they make for a very h
