C3G Promotions Dept. | Wave 53: The End?

[Arch-vile]

Strong guesses all!

With the many villains in this release, we've also got the Injustice League faction strategy guide released! There are lots of options now for strong DC villain teams.

Great write ups! I love this wave!

[Splash]

Wooooo!!

Bizarro has really interesting mechanics. Lots of strategy for both sides to deal with him.

Bat-Family Batman is definitely one of my favorites out of this wave that I haven’t seen mentioned yet. At first glance I found his synergy underwhelming but he honestly pulls the Vigilantes and Sidekicks together into something awesome!

If you get hot on his D20s he’s a beast!

[Splash]

Printed off a ton of cards today; my favorites of the wave are definitely some overdue ones like Cheetah, Vandal Savage, and Hippolyta, as well as some cool new vIIs like Bizarro, Bane, and Alfred, along with the more unique things like the Invisible Jet, what I assume to be C3G's first 5 pointer, and the Superman Flyover Story. I also didn't realize Steve Trevor had that much potential to be a cool design.

Epic work all around folks!

It was mentioned in the newsletter.

So, curious to hear from folks, as this is one of my favorite waves and I agree with Splash's thoughts here ....

1. Favorite design of the wave?
2. Most surprising design of the wave?
3. Design you feel adds most to a faction?
4. Design you feel has the biggest competitive impact?

I'm going to go with:

1. Batman (Occult). I'm definitely biased, but this is one of my favorite LDs I've done and I love how it gets to the "supernatural Batman" feel, along with bringing in some of the odder characters under one heading for army building.

2. It's the Remote Control Car for me. I'm surprised we could pull off a 5 point unit that feels every bit worth its points and no more. Kudos to Tickle on that one!

3. Batman (Family). He really does bring those Vigilante/Sidekick builds together so much more coherently. Definitely one I'd recommend anyone checking out. Great stuff by Archie.

4. Clayface (II). Lots of great additions to the Injustice faction here, but Clayface is the one I feel is the biggest handful competitively. Really nasty, tough to put down villain. Another Arkham-led masterpiece

I could toss out honorable mentions all day, though. I love all of these designs, even if the Invisible Jet almost killed me ....

Most surprised you picked Batman for only two answers.

Love this wave! A bunch of great designs here.

1. I love Batman Occult. Gets him paired with some figures that the other Batman designs wouldn't hang out with much, and is just so great thematically.

2. Probably Remote Control Car, for the same reasons as Bats. Nice one Tickle!

3. Batman Bat-Fam. He pulls the faction together in a way they really needed to hang with other strong factions. HM to Hippolyta, Amazons look pretty nasty now!

4. Vandal Savage! I think we'll see some cool generalist stuff with him.
