The Book of Zettian Deathwings

[caps]

So I keep hearing about these guys are pretty good. Something to do with @dok , but I think @superfrog @vegietarian18 and maybe even @OrcElfArmyOne can tell me more about that?


EDIT: I think I stumbled onto it

Game 10: The brak88 v. dok pool of armies is:* (Extra Turner & Hooch and the Bomba Zetts) Arktos, Van Nessing, Zettian Deathwingsx6
* (I've never played this army before) Major Q9, Raelin the Kyrie Warrior [RotV], Deathreaversx3, Fen Hydra

[superfrog]

Yes, that's it. Q9 got brought down in two explosions (a 4-skull one and a 5-skull one). Not often that Q9 dies when facing only 3 attacks in a game.

And the other great part is that almost everyone's bracket (see the thread I linked) had dok winning it all, but he lost in the first round!

I’m going to be honest, I’ve never played these guys and have no good theory Scape evaluation for them lol. I’m not qualified in the slightest on these guys. “Seems decent” is about all I got.

I thought maybe you had played in the tournament mentioned above. I couldn't remember which people I had seen teasing dok about this loss and I thought you were one of them.

I don’t think I teased him at all about it, but I did comment some in the thread (and suggested that we make brackets). I didn’t play in the tourney. I wish I could have seen that game so I’d have a more informed opinion (sample size 1 is still better than sample size 0).

[brak88]

I don't think anybody recorded it, did they? I'm not sure how/when people record games for 10 points under or just regular YouTube uploads. Yours have to excuse me lack of using the done button correctly lol.

I told several people before the game that it was definitely possible I'd lose. The Deathwings are just a pretty good unit, but Evasive is great against that army and of course the explosions are very high variance. brak88 just got the right side of that variance at the right times.
