Re: 10 Points Under - Heroscape Casting Videos
Fun game, pretty well played on both sides. Classic Knights vs. 10th game but the Hydra and Marros really added a different dynamic and both players used them well.

Re: 10 Points Under - Heroscape Casting Videos
It was fun to see the knight master comment on my knight play. A few responses that came to mind as I was watching:
1. I agree that Finn is not great for this matchup (although there indeed weren't enough spaces to just replace him with a card of knights). Finn + Marro was primarily intended to give the army more counterplay against Cathar, who are pretty prevalent in VC meta and very dangerous for pure knights. [Also, you can't deny that Finn did good work here ] 2. As for spending "7 attacks on Raelin", most of those knights didn't have the opportunity to attack 10th anyway, and if I had five attacks that couldn't target anyone but Raelin, it made more sense to just kill her off. If I wanted more attacks on 10th, I would have had to send my knights to the south and attack up on Raelin boosted 10th that Shiftrex could continually reinforce from the north side. As I saw it, my only chance at fighting on even height was to swoop in from the north where Shiftrex wasn't already blocking me from accessing the high ground, and on the north side, Raelin was blocking most of the knights from getting to 10th. 3. I agree that sending Gilbert to engage the 10th on level 2 towards the end of the game instead of moving him south by the hive would probably have worked better. My primary concern was that I couldn't see my knights from that position to dispatch, which would limit what my knights could do. 4. I definitely could have played that endgame vs the Hydra better. I think my fear was that if I just tried to hit and run, the Hydra would climb up on the level 3 height and murder Gilbert, making Wannok a significant concern for me if I was playing defensively and retreating to the back of my startzone to clone. Statistically, with the amount of attack dice I was throwing I should have taken off some hydra heads, but it was an unnecessary risk in retrospect. |

That was a fun watch, but you really decided to go with the guy with the most main event finals losses? Who would want to have him on their channel?

Re: 10 Points Under - Heroscape Casting Videos
Welcome to a very Cathar-tic game! We've got a razzler and a dazzler for you this week, with
@Chris Perkins
and
@Scaperedude
duking it out in the second VCheese tournament! And it's a powerhouse of a matchup (like most, if not all, VCheese matchups are) with a Quahon/Raelin/Marro Warriors army going toe-to-toe with a Cathar/Vulcanmech army! Joining for this game is
@Tiamat
with his excellent commentary, and what results is a super fun game that we really get into. Enjoy!
Want to cast a game with me? Let me know through PM or the scheduling spreadsheet! As you may have noticed by the sparse posts lately, I'm running low on videos that have been cast (still have a good amount waiting to be cast), so I could use your help! (I promise I don't turn each recording into a therapy session. Well... I try not to. Kind of.) Monthly Utah Tournaments in SLC!!

Re: 10 Points Under - Heroscape Casting Videos
I think I'm going to have nightmares about Quahon's opening rolls from this game for years. Good lesson on variance (and it's often unforgiving nature) for sure.
The reasons I didn't open with Marro Warriors were: 1) Valda. Cathar (like Knights) really like valda, and will catch the MWs a lot faster. 2) The map is good for mele, between the jungle & shadow. Without Ulanivia, even on height MWs are rolling 3 v 6 attacks most of the time, which is just not going to kill many Cathar. 3) I really wanted the Raelin/Quahon setup on height that I made in round 1 so I could stop Cathar from slow-rolling effectively and constantly contest Valda. Obviously that didn't work as well as I intended when the 'borgs wouldn't die. Obviously a disappointing showing for Quahon, but I still think that's one of the absolute top-tier armies in V-Cheese even though it had a weak showing overall in V-Cheese 2. |

Re: 10 Points Under - Heroscape Casting Videos
The finals of VCheese 2 are here, with interestingly nary a custom figure on the board! We've got
@boromir96
with his powerhouse Knight army against
@heroscaper2010
with his dark horse Mimring/Arrow Gruts army! It's a super interesting matchup where both armies are deviating from the norm for a really exciting finish to the tournament!
@Chris Perkins
joins me this game for some excellent insight as we watch the action unfold!
