A downright SCARY team

[balagonn]

This 450 point team I have never used, but it looks great and I may use it in an upcoming tournament.


V Ultron
V Scarlet Witch
E Scarlet Witch
E Black Cat
R Shield Sniper (X2)
V Shield Sniper (X2)
V Doombot (X2)
V AIM Medic

Total: 447

3 Characters with Probability Control means that you will almost never miss and almost never be hit, a possible total of +4 to Ultron's attack (Not that he needs it) with the hydra team ability, a possible total of +7 to Ultron's damage with the Shield team ability, and a medic incase Ultron gets hit. Plus the Doombots and Black Cat move for free due to V Scarlet Witch's team ability. All this team is missing is outwit.

You're *that* worried about missing with Ultron and his, what, 14 attack value? Too little offense on a big team.

hey man
u guys have 450pt tournaments thats cool

as for yer team, while u willl not miss ever, there is stil a hole
u only have one reall offencive piece
once ultron, is killed yer team falls about in most 400 plus games ive played most people have 3-5 good offencive weapons

also be careful their team dont spread out to avoid the EE,

that being said its a good concept for a team, yer capable of dealing massive damage thru EE with all the shield agents and doombots

id love to hear how yer team works out and let us know how much damage u manage on a single turn with that crazy EE
just watch out for that hole
cheers

Finaly I get a positive response!!! The probability controlers are to make sure Ultron never gets hit and never rolls snake eyes. In a absolute worst case scenario if Ultron is killed, I will still have my snipers and doombots who can pretty much mop up whatever's left behind.

[Pip the Troll]

hmmmm only thing is this
dont depend on yer PBer's to stop ultron from being hit, cause if they are in a position to see your opponent then he will just shoot them
and take them out
id keep them more of to make sure ultron never misses and to make sure yer snipers never miss, cause with the PBers yer snipers wont miss
if u do want to put a PBer in the open, make sure its only and xpect to lose her

anyways good luck and like i said let us know how u do
cheers

The tournament isn't 'till the 15th, but I am going to have a chance to test this team tomarrow against my friends devestating outwitters+perplexers+super skrull combo. If I win, I will be very happy indeed ^_^

[KiLLeR_bUrIto]

how many actions per turn do u get with 450 pts?

[balagonn]

5.

Drop the Scarlet witches and try to fit in a Vet Bullseye and a Rookie Black Panther. In a big game like that you will run into a lot of invulnerability and Mastermind, and outwit will be invaluable to you. Also, Bullseye gives you another offensive threat and can share his attack value with any adjacent wild card, this even makes the doombots and black cat offensive threats. I agree that you have such high stats that you won't need more than 1 PC character.

Just a few thoughts....

Any build total that is not in even increments of 100 is just mutant. I don't think I'd want to play in one (but that's just me).

As someone else mentioned, having 7 possible Shield guys doesn't give you actions to use them all. The most you could ever to add to Ultron's damage would be 4 (not like that's not truly terrifying all on it's own. EE for 5 - ouch!)

I think I'm inclined to agree that this may be too many eggs in one basket. As tough as Ultron is, he's not unkillable (even with the backup you have here) and once he goes down, this team is toast. It's defintely too many points invested in PC, IMHO. If you need 3, you've missed something else on the way (that's 108 points of PC). Black Cat can probably carry the day there on her own. I'd consider swapping out those Witches for a Rookie Panther and a V Avalanche. You'll still get 2 free movers to lend it to your wildcards and you'll get some Outwit and Barrier (with a range of 8!) and still have 20 points left over (another V AIM medic?).

Or, if you just have to have that PC, possibly replace the 2 Witches with another E Black Cat and a U Wasp (who will also let your wildcards move for free) and give you some Leadership (can you say extra Shield pump?) and another free-move taxi. Contender's suggestion about V Bullseye is also very valid.

If I had V Bullseye or U Wasp I would add em, but I dont. Hmm I could swap out E Scarlet witch for E Pyro...
