Re: 2020 C3V Playtest Tournament - Finals until 10/4
No time set for the vegie dok showdown but will probably be at 9pm Central 8pm Mountain some night. Dok selected the Fiery bugs, and I selected the Raelin bugs.
This is the first time since the first round of the event that I have selected one of my own armies. I lost that game with my Ranjit build. This is also my first diceoff loss of the event. 10 Years of Gencon/Scapecon Battle Reports - Comic Battle Reports - Probability Calculator App - Reverse the Whip Army Archetypes "It's all about the game." - Sgt.

Re: 2020 C3V Playtest Tournament - Finals until 10/4
Finals starting now!
EDIT: I got the playtest tournament win. This was a Kaemon show, inspired by my quarterfinal game against Sir Heroscape where he played this army the same way I did here. I opened with a Kaemon ping, trying to build a Bee shield when Kaemon drew the enemy in, and then clean up with Bee protected Kaemon. My full Kaemon opener was a bit awkward into dok's Axentia rush; I de facto passed my first two turns due to the Phoenix 6 move flying matching up nicely into Kaemon 7 range. Axentia's first life was short lived, going down quickly to Bee Stings and then failing to do much damage with Phoenix Rising, and she only got 4 wounds on Raelin. After Axentia died it was a grindy game. I had a few Bees and the Queen sitting outside of my startzone blocking the path to Raelin and Kaemon, and a few other bees that I deployed deep into dok's startzone to try to get damage on the Fire Ants before they got going. Fire Ants never had the moment they were really looking for. They failed a lot of attacks and Kaemon just slowly but surely kept grinding through them with Quick Release 4v2s. All but one of my Bees died, but Kaemon with 2 life pulled out the win. Good game. Axentia - really interesting figure. The fact that she is guaranteed to come back from the dead on her next turn allows you to do some stuff you can't do with any other Heroscape figure. Her damage upon death is a little tricky to get right. I do think I prefer the current 2 range 7 or higher to 1 range autowound, just because autowounds are more frustrating, but 2 spaces makes her much trickier to play around. Bees- Have talked about them a few times now. I still think the 1 attack feels a bit piddly, and the 4 attack Sting way too much of a sacrifice. 7 move is a lot though and is maybe their saving grace, you can pull off some great plays with 7 move flying. Overall I think I'm okay with where they're at. Thanks for the event, was a lot of fun. Helped me a lot to get a sense of all of these new figures. 10 Years of Gencon/Scapecon Battle Reports - Comic Battle Reports - Probability Calculator App - Reverse the Whip Army Archetypes "It's all about the game." - Sgt.
