View Full Version : 100 pt. FL beatdown
Yeah Yeah Firelord's talked about way too much on this site. He has his strengths, but I do not use him, and not just so I won't be made fun of. That plummeting DV can be destroyed by any thug, but all you have to do is get him off those first two clicks and base him to stop the healing. Yet my friend still swears by him, and challenged me to a 100 pt. game with his E Firelord and a medic. I need to beat him quickly and efficiently, so what is the best way? I was thinking Elektra or Logan with a cheap TKer, or anyone with stealth. I don't have U Elektra, U Wolverine, or U Spiral.
Get some outwit and stealth. Maybe even a mind-controller. Or use Flash to hit-and-run on the medic so she's useless.

I'd use this team-
V Logan 60
V Wasp 37
Total- 97
To begin with, use an indoor map to take advantage of the high level of hindering terrain. At first you can use Logan's Stealth to keep Wasp out of line of sight. Once you get btb, Logan can hit Firelord for 3. With Firelord's damage down to 3, you can afford to stay where you are. At this point FL has three options: 1- Attack Logan 2- Attack Wasp 3- Run and heal, risking a failed breakaway roll. An attack is most likely. If FL attacks & hits Logan, it will bring him to his prime click with Flurry and BCF. If FL attacks and hits Wasp, she'll lose Incapacitate and have a lousy Speed value. None of these options are likely to be very appealing to your friend. If he runs and succeeds in breaking away, you can still give chase with Wasp's free move. If he attacks Logan, it won't hurt very much, and Wasp can use Incap on FL while Logan waits to attack without pushing. There's no need to push if FL is Incaped. Unless the dice are incredibly cruel to you, it's pretty much over at this point.
How about
E - Wasp 33pts
V - Bullseye 43pts or E (31) and add a medic for the difference
E - Quicksilver 24pts
or
E - Wasp 33pts
E - Bullseye 31pts
E - Black Cat 32pts
I like the first team more because you have quicksilver take out the medic and the Bullseye/Wasp combo should get the first hit in and take him down out of his good stats. Basically any decent range attacker plus wasp could take him out. Just try and get a wide open map so you can out range Cheeselord.

Wyldstaar's idea sounds pretty nice to me... I agree with him over putting in another ranged attacker... unless you want to try to get into base to base with a flier and take away his ability to shoot out of range with rce.... which wouldnt be a bad idea but your flier wouldnt last too long.... either way logan is a nice bruiser so use him :)
Both teams sound nice, but I'm more inclined to use stealth and TK. I also am thinking about R Blastaar. I'll have to check but I think 5 damage reduced by toughness puts him on his best click, or maybe that's the E or V. Perhaps running shot to start off?

Try this:
V-WhirlWind
E-Wasp
R-Harley
Fly Whirlwind next to FL. Perplex his damage to 4. Use Flurry. Firelord takes 8 clicks. Rinse, repeat....
You have Firelord pate!
