We had fun! Rob took 9th place and missed cut by less than 100 points. I placed somewhat lower, and didn’t make the best butterfly choices. We might try to record a game with my team in future for the channel…
My thoughts on Darkseid are that he wasn’t designed to have support like he does in a 400 point format. He is not unbeatable, and can be managed, but it’s rough when you’re building against a single build archetype. I’d like to see less people play him and more people explore what the format has to offer.
@@jocestitch9696 Next year, with the return of the stop signs and barrel, he won't be as unstoppable, but that' one full year away. The up-to 16 unavoidable is... hard to deal with if you don't see it coming. I just hope Silver age won't become Darkseid vs anti-Darkseid until the next Wiz-kid one man army comes along. Edit the first: Let us not forget the 400 points modern that Wizkinds is also planning with teh 300/400 point fast forces coming soon. We will have to learn to deal with him more, outside of just using Morgane on her top click.
@ there are a number of ways to manage it. Destroying walls to place debris around you, stealing his rings or killing his support pieces. Using Griever to prevent terrain placement. Using water or smoke terrain to prevent barrier placement. Perplexing down his defence so you can hit him (or using Police team ability to reduce defensive power). Cosmo to prevent the use of certain powers. Trick arrows. There were 3 Darkseid teams in Ontario this weekend out of 17 builds. Two made top 8 and one made top 4, but none made it to the top table.
@@Xaxares if I was running a 400 point modern format. I’d ban Darkseid and Chthon. I do think that stores and players need to manage their local meta to support the type of play they wish to have. Sometimes that means temporary bans.
Mission Points just got banned in Silver after our most recent event. You can still play Mission Point characters, but Mission Points will not be earned or count for anything.
Both nice team😊
Thanks!

Loki is oppressive, imagine once BJ finally comes out.
Also, thoughts on the Darkseid maneuver?

@@jocestitch9696 I guess they were ready for it.
I am not a fan of mission points.....lol
I don’t like mission points as a complete build, but I support them as supplemental like Rob did here!
