I know there has been a lot of "how to kill sentroid" lately, but then again, i also want to check for new ideas xDDD

my venue is having the last event for the Thanos IG, and i reaaaaally want the figure!!!! (im a big fan of Thanos!!!!)

i know im gonna be facing at least 3 confirmed sentroids (>_<), and as i dont have one so i cant fight fire with fire im gonna have to relay on my Thanos chase (and also i think it would be awesome to use Thanos in the event for winning Thanos xDDD)

The rules are:

500 points
Figures only from Hulk, Galactic Guardians and Chaos War

so... this is my aproach to kill the sentroid

350 GG049 Thanos
38 IH003 A.I.M. Agent
34 IH017 A.I.M. Renegade
50 FFCW006R Scarlet Witch
10 IGR101 Infinity Gauntlet
5 IGS101IG Soul Gem
5 IGS103IG Time Gem
5 IGS105IG Reality Gem
497

i have tested this and its really about initiative... sadly... but ive been able to kill sentroid

you need to win the init for this plan to be effective


_____ __1__ ______ ___2___
Thanos ____ ______ Scarlet
_____ Agent ______ Renegade

you need to get the force in this shape on the starting area, two spaces between Thanos and Scarlet (spaces marked 1 and 2 are out the starting area)

1.- i start and i do anything so i dont get a token and cant be attacked by sentroid due the first turn immunity rule

2.- on my second turn the agent moves to space "2", Thanos uses TMGE and sets sentroid (or my opponents main piece) on the agents original space and his second higher on space "1"

3.- scarlet gets perplexed and attacks the main enemy piece (in case of sentroid thats +2att and uses the renegades enhancement for 3 penetrating damages, leaving sentroid on his click of no move and attack) she uses her own perplex and the agents one so Thanos can perplex his own def

This is 11 att from Scarlet against a 16 def from sentroid (both AIM have Hydra TA and are adjacent to Scarlet for the attack) plus she has the PC for her own attack (you need to be worried if sentroid has the gauntlet wich probably he has and has the super senses gem cause that can destroy your game)

Thanos will "Toy with you" to sentroid so he gets 9 att and the AIM renegade uses Barrier on the other piece to avoid a nasty pulse wave or something like that (or forcing the enemy to do something else instead of hitting Thanos)

in case he flies or do something fancy Thanos could use his "toy with you" on him and perplex down sentroid attack...

4.- same dosis from Scarlet on second turn and if he didnt changed sentroid for void or sentry Thanos will kill him off

Note: in case he changes for void you can instead use barrier from Scarlet to avoid pulse wave and if he changes for sentry thats the click of imp with charge :P so no hypersonic speed for him

what do you think of the team?? how could i improve it??

i know one big problem beside sentroid would be Adam Warlock at 450 with the gauntlet as i cant teleport him nor chase him cause i dont have move and attack

and in case i lose init with sentroid i have a double barrier to try and prevent damage on the first turn

u_u no comments??

Since a lot of Sentroid teams can so easily be made into Avengers theme teams, you probably won't be winning first turn very often...

I would like to hear other peoples chanos 500 point cheesy team builds

Doesn't the Hydra TA require line of sight from the character using the hydra TA as well?

Also, chase Thanos and SR Thanos at 150. Boom, Thanos killbox.

moving the agent they both get LOS to the enemy cause they are adjacent to scarlet when she hits

It's not a bad team idea, but I agree with tzemptzin. It's going to be hard to get initiative very often, and the times that you don't will be devastating. Sentroid can setup and prepare to hit with psychic blast, while still keeping first turn immunity to avoid TMGE. If you try to avoid the blast, you'll have to move your whole team and hope that it's enough. At that point your strategy is out the window. As someone who until recently has had a Sentroid team built and has been strategizing to prepare for every eventuality, I have focused very heavily on how to overcome Chanos. The only way you stand any chance at all is that initiative roll, then going first and passing. Leaving your team to an at best 50% chance, is not your best bet. The best way to fight Sentroid, is vast amounts of mobility. Uatu and Unspoken is good, but you still need to win initiative to ensure Sentroid starts on the elevated terrain. Doom and Kang with a decent mobile secondary attacker and good support is quite possibly the best Sentroid deterant. You can even start with Doom and Kang separate, to have more options for non Sentroid teams.

i have Dr. Dang, but what could be a good team for him? and what kang and doom are the best for the split/merge??

Do you have 2 Scarlet Witches? I used this team.
Scarlet Witch 50 x2
D. Blake
Chanos
IG SS gem

You call Ventry over. Now you either perplex down his defense by 1-3 depending on who else comes. May wanna save a perplex for enemies damage or Chanos defense. You will have 4 chances to hit Ventry. Once you hit him once stop! He now has to roll breakaway to run or attack Chanos if your perplex his damage down to 3 no Multiaatack. Next turn blast him again push Witch and hea lot her with Blake.keep him next to Witches. Also perplex her damage to 3 and u decide his to use other perplex. She has 3 chances. If she hits Ventry is now on a 17 with invulnerable. Chanos needs a 5 for for 5 I got lucky one gamer and landed on exploit weakness and god Ventry.
Good luck whatever you decide. With 2 probs and 3 perplexed. Plus opening Super Senses on Chanos. Even if he KOs both Witches off the bat he is on click 3. No HSS and stuck. Perplex your damage up and hope he fails imp. Or you land on PB. Then he is on RS not HSS also Toy with you screws Ventry up bad. His movement drops down quick to 9 eventually 7.

Dr. Dang? Do you have 2 Scarlet Witches? Full Gauntlet. Donald Blake. Dr. Strange 75 and Glenn Talbot.

really liked this one im gonna give it a try on testing

I hope you do as well as me. I have not lost to any Ventry team. As long as everyone who owns Ventry keeps thinking he is an auto win u will be fine.
