Get ready, folks -- it's time for the grand finale of Online Heroscape Season 34! (Or, rather, the last game that I have from Season 34 so it's the default finale as far as the channel goes!) This week we're going to clash the titans dok and @kevindola -- the two highest ranked online Heroscape players -- and their incredibly subtle, position-capitalizing, figure-yoinking armies. Here to help me catch all the interplay going on is none other than @Dysole , another top player and master of playing tricky armies! This game is no joke and there's a ton going on, so sit back and enjoy all the subtle intricacies of this matchup!

That’s such a good map for Kevin’s build, that’s like Chainfighter heaven.

Lol. Thanks for the nice words superfrog!

I played against the Deathcommander twice in later rounds and those were my two losses in the event (one in round 2, one in the elimination rounds). Both times I threw a very large number of dice at the Deathcommander and never scratched it. (I also played with my army two other times, but sat Deathcommander both of those times. My army went undefeated... I guess people underestimate the dogs?)

Wow, that's a crazy good showing from your army, and especially Deathcommander! (Also small spoilers for an upcoming game... That's a good one too. )

Once Deathcommander took that hit, though, I was more or less playing YOLO Deathcommander, figuring I can't count on it living so I may as well leverage the powers as much as I can. I couldn't sink multiple OMs on Deathcommander until Sujoah died, but I got a lot out of the OMs I did place there.

That's what I was thinking, and having that power up front with so many spiders swarming meant a lot in the game. I am curious if you think you would have done the same if Sujoah had flown up the mountain to fight Deathstalkers earlier and then stayed away from Deathcommander engagement. If there's only one spider engaging Deathcommander at once I don't know if I risk OMs on him since killing the spider takes away bonding anyway, so it seems more consistent to just go Deathstalkers at that point (and I think that would have been my play to counter Deathcommander's efficiency).

Haha, he's great! I'll definitely have to see about him recording with me a lot more, if not just regularly. I agree, he brought a lot of great vibes to this one -- I really found myself enjoying it while editing yesterday.

(Of course, I'll also mention that all the cohosts I've worked with so far have brought a lot to our sessions and I'm really hoping to record with all of them again.)

Right!? Especially when dok's army has Raelin and a 100 point commander figure who can both be lava dunked so easily.

And that, boys and girls, is why you check the map before making your army selection.

Whatever, I blame whoever picked out the maps for that event.

Well, as long as Sujoah is alive I am probably only putting one OM a round on Dathcommander, either way. But more broadly speaking, if Sujoah wants to chill on the hill I probably don't send up a second dog. I leave her alone and attack other stuff. No sense in chasing her and giving up height if I can go directly for Estivara and spiders. In that sense, I think bringing Sujoah to bear early was probably a good call. Poor Crixus just couldn't get that second wound on Deathcommander quickly enough.

Just building suspense!

I definitely am not having technical difficulties because I took too long editing last night and didn't export it until this morning and then just find out a few minutes ago that it failed and have to start over and then will have to do the actual uploading and processing to YouTube. Nope.

The things you do for your fans, Bigga. Way to be.

EDIT: I guess I can watch it on tomorrow's lunch break instead of today... I'll be okay.....

It's fiiiiinnnnnneeeeeeeeee

The suspenseful wait is over! After battling with (or, rather, waiting on) the multiple exporting and uploading and processing processes (this is why I usually try to do it overnight), we've got a game coming your way! This week we showcase couple more Utah personalities, one being the cohost @Scaperedude who is lending his beautiful voice and insight to this game. The game features @BodaciousBlood , another Utah 'Scaper, and @Aratrea in a classic Romans vs Heavies matchup, each with a C3V twist!

( @Flash_19 also you'll never be forgiven for making me self-conscious of how many times I say "shenanigans" while editing this video )
