Modern Age Floor teams: tell me where I'm gonna lose

[Uberman]

I've got a 300 point Golden Age Floor game next week. I usually don't care about Theme stuff, but I decided to try and make it work, somehow. I've been thinking about the following two options.

Team A: What a Scoop! [Reporter]
Bn'B Superman 216
SI Spider-Man w/Lunge 55
IC Pyro 27
--------------298 points.

Not really much strategy here. Superman chases the big guy, Spider-Man chases support staff or B-leaguers, Pyro generally gets in the way. I'm not much for planning.

Team B: (Auditioning Clever Team Names) [Mystical]
Bn'B Black Flash w/ Armor Piercing 160
AW Shathra w/ Skulduggery 104
CM E Moon Knight 27
Orange Lantern 5
---------------296 points.

Essentially, use Black Flash like you'd think. Have Moon Knight grab up the Orange Lantern and carry it around, being where he needs to be to capitalize on the big Poisoning options if they arise. Or at leas controlling the board with the threat of big Poison. This is mostly an excuse to use Shathra, though, who I've had forever and have never used. Also, I'd add 4 points of... something. Somewhere. Maybe a Bystander.

Any clearly poor decisions in there? Any obvious, simple improvements? Any hope in hell?

I haven't seen Superman perform yet without having perplexers boost his attack. You might want to keep that in mind. He's got great damage potential, but it usually ends up remaining potential because of his terrible attack stats.

I like the Black Flash with armor piercing. What style of teams do you usually end up playing against?

Modern Age = No Feats and no figures before Avengers.

If you are set on playing that Superman
Superman 216
Diana Prince 32
Clark Kent/Superman AE 48
296 Trinity Theme team with support from Diana and Perplex from Clark. If your big Superman get's KO'd, you might be able to bring him back with the AE for another 3 clix.

For the Mystical Team
You have to have Outwit with a 2 damage.
Black Flash 150
Clea 59 (Outwit)
Klarion 76 (Perplex, Mystics, Stealth, and a killer last 2 clix)
Amadeus Cho 11 (pog with outwit)
296 pts

Oh, crudnuts, the title is wrong. The content is right, though. It's a golden age tournament, so it's all-in.
