Aaah, nothing like playing an all villian team. And what team would be better than the classic X-men Villians?
Well, I'm sure there are a lot of better teams. But for a moment let's forget about straight beat-down teams and concentrate on theme.
Team 1 - Dignity
The Brotherhood don't know the meaning of the word "Taxi." And Supervillians don't need no schtinkin' medics! This team consists of...
Magneto Veteran 103
Mystique Veteran 51
Victor Creed Unique 75
Pyro Veteran 42
Destiny Veteran 29
This team doesn't have much mobility.. or much to fall back on. But it can pack a powerful punch. Mystique's perplex can really help the team out. And we all know how painful (or helpful) probability control can be. This team can face off against just about any (thematic) X-man team. However, in a more competitive sense, you might want to try and stick indoors with this team. A super ranged team would mean destruction.
On to the 2nd team..
Team 2 - I know he's not on the Brotherhood, but I don't care
Hey, Sauron may not be on the Brotherhood.. But he should be! It doesn't bother me that much, though.. I'm just glad that he's a useful figure.. and his sculpt is awesome, too! This team consists of...
Magneto Veteran 103
Mystique Veteran 51
Sabretooth Veteran 69
Sauron Unique 77
4-Man team. Hmm, I usually try to play at least 5-man teams. Mainly because I feel like with 5 people you can really have a variety of strategy, and still be focused enough to be effective. But oh well, this breaks the rules. This team is a bit more mobile than the first team. 2 Fliers.. Sauron having Charge with 10 movement is nice. Charge in with Sauron for a Blades/Claws/Fangs attack, then drop Sabretooth for another Blades/Claws/Fangs attack.. Then blast them with Magneto for 4 (or 5 with the help of Mystique) more clicks of damage. Still not much to fall back on. But remember.. this is all about themes.
And Finally...
Team 3 - Team 2, but a bit more spiffy
I used this team in the last tournament I played.. I got first in the tourney, but the Heroclix community around where I live isn't all about winning. Everyone usually tries to play a pretty fun team, not just one that they know is going to blow everyone else away. This team consists of...
Magneto Veteran 103
Mystique Experienced 43
Sabretooth Veteran 69
Sauron Unique 77
Paramedic Rookie 8
This team is a bit more competitive. Mystique still does the same thing, but now you can push everyone to go nuts because you have a medic to fall back on. And you don't have to be as careful with Magneto since he can get healed. I KOed a Savage Hulk in one turn with this team. Some lucky rolls were involved, but oh well.
I could post about 23515614351 different Brotherhood variants.. but I don't have the time right now. Basically I just wanted to say that the Brotherhood rock. End of story. Game over, man! *cough*
