200 point armies...enter the arena!

My buddy and I built an arena map out of sand and castle. It has no elevations and no cover. We plan on building a landscape around the outside, but before I start on that I want to just have a couple of solid arena battles in the sandy pit.

We decided 200 point armies would be a hoot. Do best two out of three or three out of five or something. Super quick fights to the death.

Who do you think would make good 200 point armies for a fight like this? Keep in mind there is NO cover, NO height, and NO special terrain. It's just sand, walled in all the way around. Units with range will likely be able to shoot the opponent at the end of their first move...the arena is large but not that large.

Marro Drones x4 might work better. Would you really want to take all Vipers or all Gruts against Q9? Samurai armies, like maybe Tagawa+Raelin or something that uses Izumi for a screen, could also murder these melee swarms. No, I think hero-killing power still has uses. If you're going to swarm, take Yari, Roman Archers, or Zombies, so you can put out that 6 attack when needed.

Troll Warrior is surprisingly tart
SPARTACUS!!!

Just kidding.

My army will be:

Ne-Gok-Sa = 90
+ Marro Warriors = 140
+ Me-Burq-Sa = 190
+ Isamu = 200

So what do I win?

WHAT DO YOU MEAN NOTHING!?!

Buff Ninja
Isamu: 10
Finn: 80
Thorgrim: 80
Eldgrim: 80

Do as much damage as possible with the Vikings and when moving them, keep 'em together so they get the others bonus'. Then, with your buffed up Isamu, take out the rest of the opponent one by one.

See Valhalla like never before:
