My students are complaining that his army is unbeatable. I know it isn't so, but wanted some opinions. What 500 point army would you use to beat this?

Spoiler Alert!

When I play him, I will be using
Fen Hydra x2
Krav Maga
Deathreavers x4

Honestly, I think his army is pretty darned good. KMA/Q9 as the A-listers to whittle down range and then Charos/Isamu as brutal melee cleanup.

I'd go:

AE 110
TKN 220
3xGrubs 90
Raelin 80
500/16

He'll spend too much time killing Raelin at which point TKN stomps on the KMA and then bashes Q9, winning the war of attrition vs. Charos by virtue of the Grubs. The AE support the plan differently depending on when they drop. An early drop puts them on height vs. Q9, a late drop makes them clean up vs. Charos.

I think DCoT/Warhulk makes for a great choice as well.

~Aldin, happy to see this thread resurface
