For the Love of Atlantis, What is your favorite team?
Everyone has their team, that one set of characters they love, and while maybe not get to play too often, enjoy using and have set aside and ready to throw down with. This is my team, what are your guys' teams, and do you have any comments on any of the ones that other players are posting? Any one team out there put you in awe of its destruction?
The Team:
IH033 Tiger Shark
150 SI045 Namor
156 SM048 Aquaman
65 AN027 Ocean Master
35 SI007 Atlantean Warrior
10 IGR101 Infinity Gauntlet
5 IGS101IG Soul Gem
5 IGS102IG Power Gem
5 IGS103IG Time Gem
5 IGS104IG Space Gem
5 IGS105IG Reality Gem
2 ATA022 Atlantis (+1 defense on ranged attacks while in water)
Feat: Automatic Regeneration-Namor (Free Action Regen)
On of my fav or is Black Manta riding his shark with laser beams. Team him up with a few feats (or I suppose the IG now) add in King Shark, and the world falls before you! Shark team!

run in aquaman and have him fight to death then it activates the other threes abilitys when he floods the area.
500 point modern
I would play this team often but there are two problems,
1. My venue is lame and plays highlander rules (There can be only 1, no copies of the same character on a team unless different people were that character. I.E no 2 superman, but I can use different versions of Batman or Robin depending on the human they were).
2. Since tiger shark gets 2 attacks, I like to run him on the front lines. I like to throw it on Aquaman and let him play in the back yard to start, moving the dial and helping place tactile water with his action. His second task is to move in and finish easy kills with Steal Energy, to gain back some health and attack enemies that wont be able to attack back.
Just my strategy and restrictions, but I will be playing some of these builds in private games outside the venue because I sure do love Atlantis.

I do in fact enjoy using that, but I've been holding back against my friends in local games, a trump card when they think they found a team to beat me. between the Hydrant and Tempest, the team always has water, and coupled with the free move abilities from aquaman and the ability to carry thanks to the Gauntlet, this team moves places fast.

King Shark is super awesome, I have wrecked teams with him at my helm, but I want the team probs if I can get them.

Reason: Wrote in Tiger Shark, meant King Shark
One of my regular variations on the Legion going from 300 up to 1000
Going up to
Build
150 FFSM001R Superman
78 SM007 Star Boy
79 SM022 Sun Boy
35 SM025 Matter-Eater Lad
60 CR022 Dawnstar
63 CR024 Karate Kid
50 JL048 Dream Girl
70 LS003 Cosmic Boy
585
Plus contingency plan on Cosmic Boy and NSS on Karate Kid makes for a 600 point bad day. Or you can swap in Lightning Lad in for a couple of pieces for a laugh. You can drop out the 150 Superman for the great Young Superman and add in different pieces to try to get more pieces on the board.

It isn't uber competitive or anything, but it is an accurate Superman Revenge Squad for Modern Age. Bizarro carries Lex. Lex can transfer damage to Bizarro. Add this for 500 Golden Age:
40 AA103 Henchman
50 JL023 Toyman
490
or
40 SM030 Hope Taya
60 SM014 Mercy Graves
500
using Metropolis in a way that doesn't include HSS.

My favourite team has got to be Convention Exclusive Wonder Woman (w/Brilliant Tactitician), 50 pt Amazons and Phillipus. While much has been written about WW and her Amazon sisters, Phillipus is often the star player.
Everyone understimates Phillipus. Her Prob Con power affecting only Amazons is really useful on an Amazon team, and her Outwit defensive powers only is a super secret weapon *shhhh* don't tell anybody. She also makes a great secondary/tertiary attacker.
Oh, and I just love Wonder Woman and Amazons. I love throwing in Queen Hippolyta chase whenever I can, but her dial is much less competitive than it used to be.
So, I too love the Atlantis theme! I feel I need either a lot of Altlantian warriors to win map control (there are a lot of dry maps out there), or have Tempest with you to create 3 square blocks of water terrain around him. Use the 156SM Aquaman to create water spots on the map with his SP and use one of your objects to pick - bucket of water! Love Atlantis. Oh, and if you don't want the team probs you can always include ThorFrog, he works well on that team.
