Just getting into the game and my first list is running cable, bishop, psylock, wolverine as the base, swapping out characters according to point levels. 2 shooting threats, 2 melee threats with a mix of disruption.
I will say this about Domino. Her lucky shot is great at preventing power generation on power hungry characters. It tends to be a mid to late game attack when one of these characters have used a lot of their power the previous turn.
I think you are crazy ti think Deadpool is the same. Losing one attack that you probably weren’t going to get on exchange for power gain was a big buff. Add Leg Say and Deadpool is super solid.
I have begrudgingly removed Colossus from my X-Force roster, he never seemed to have the power to fund his kit. You need to play Deadpool some more. Personally, I find Deadpool to be on par with Laura and the two of them just slightly above Domino because she isn't as mobile. Wade's Bang being changed to a gainer plus Leg Day is what puts him up there for me. Always feels good to "Leg Day" into two attacks that each might grant bonus attacks. The extra movement and his ability to count as healthy on his injured side translates to Wade scoring a lot of VPs for me over the course of a game. Psylocke is a staple for me, I'm surprised that you rate her so low. Really good at hunting down Spiders, Dare Devil(gotta turn off Wolverine/Hulk/iHulk's rerolls,) and wolverines. I love it when she gets targeted and dazed, Crimson Dawn is a ridiculous TTC. I must have had a lot of bad luck with Wolverine. After a dozen or so games I pulled him from my roster. The first six times(after the second whiff I started counting) I paid for TBAWID I rolled no wilds(after rerolls.) I want to like him but I found that X-23 does a similar job for a threat cheaper and she has a built in reroll. IMO the best thing about the new leadership is unlocking the skull so you can reroll it with some other ability. I'd like to see what your roster and what some of your squads look like. I like to play a wide squad on wide maps with a lot of three threats; I'm very happy to run Cable/DP/X-23/Domino/Miles/Honeybadger at 19 and replace Honeybadger with another 3 threat(currently Ant-Man) at 20. I hate E shapes because, outside of Crimson Dynamo, my models are glass cannons and I prefer to spread out and pick 1v1 or 2v1 fights. Also, up until recently Cosmic Ghost Rider dominated narrow maps and Dare Devil Defenders do similar, if not better damage while being way more durable and they love an E shape map against X-Force.
Jonathan should've been built into hb's card. It's a removable token and costs 1 power. It might make her a little strong, but i don't think it breaks her. Convocation is a fun leadership, but nothing new lately so maybe something newer would be wiser.
Always love your Affiliation breakdown vids 😁 Would be cool to see them for others such as Xmen, Wakanda, Asgard & Spiderfoes next over the coming months. Just as it'll tie in nicely with the new releases we'll be seeing for those over spring & it'll be great to see how the new additions fit in!
The updates really helped them out. You see them making top cuts at tournaments now. I think Psylocke is great on spread out maps where she can pick her fights, but still can be tricky to play.
Hey! For the next video, I would love to see a Sentinels breakdown that focuses on good choices for Under Your Skin. I know that you scrapped a Sentinels project, so hopefully this would allow you to make use of the knowledge you've gathered so far.
@@RichMidGaming i don't own most of these guys and considered running to the store lol. i decided to hold off as i have so many not built/painted already lol.
Wolverine has wiffed too many hits for me, even with the buff. I've had to retire him for now again. I take a utility 4 in his place instead, and that's worked for me so far.
having not played her a ton but enjoying those times I have, I think Psylocke needs to be at least high B. She has a good amount of movement, built in rerolls in addition to Cable's, and I think that mystic attack can't be overlooked.
Considering the changes to the roster, the addition of Sunspot and Warlock, how do you think they fit in? Also, do you think Baron Zemo is a good fit? Another reroll, good move, good kit.
@@RichMidGaming all kidding aside, I am trying to give Sin a turn. Mysterio and Casandra Nova come to mind for characters who might be able to benefit from her leadership

I can't wait for Avengers breakdown because I have so much difficulties with taking right characters under new Steve as there are so many of them!
Not the same format, but I did do this one a while back: ua-cam.com/video/2qDEWM0bRrA/v-deo.html&ab_channel=Rich_MidGaming

I just assembled Cable 10 minutes ago! How serendipitous for me! When you are able, I can't wait to see your breakdown of an Xavier leadership ❤❤❤
Will have to get some play time with him first, but 100% on the list!

Re do Winter Guard. I’ll be certain to watch.

Peter Parker's Web Warriors next please

Non-affiliated I think bullseye can be really good with all the shields and bodyguards

i really enjoy these videos.
Glad you like them!

Good to see some love for og Sabretooth. BIIIG dmg output like you say.
Also, looks like you lost weight, and looking good 👍
Cheers man, appreciated!
Cable is my favourite also. I became an x-force player purely because of the cartoon

this force got a big boost from the updates, still not as good as Cyke Xmen
Another great list Rich! Just out of curiosity where would you rank Cable?
As a leader, a solid B right now I'd say
My request for next video because I like to make things difficult. Criminal syndicate under Klaw.
hhhmmmmm, I did do a Crim Sin one not that long ago, but maybe Klaw could be fun - need to get some play time with him first though
@@RichMidGaming Klaw CS is a weird thing to play, but it can be really fun. It also gives you another excuse to play Electra or SLDD and Bob
You think Cable throw is better the magneto throw?
Dare you to do Sin Cabal next 😅
...
@@RichMidGaming all kidding aside, I am trying to give Sin a turn. Mysterio and Casandra Nova come to mind for characters who might be able to benefit from her leadership
make more, good stuff
