Both lists seem tried and true. Cant really comment on those. What are your thoughts about match ups? What do you play against Haley2/Sloan? How about Harkevitch(Jacks)/Vlad1(shooty infantry)?

Would be great to hear your thoughts

I was a hipster BEFORE it was cool!

My regular opponents are Circle and cygnar Players, so I'll ellaborate on those matchups.

- Circle, doomy3 all the way. Just make them feat first. The shamans and admonition helps in getting the alpha. Whelps for blocking chargelanes. (Clouds to protect your heavies)
This usually gets me in a situation where I can use the to hit part of the feat.

I faced harkevitch and Vlad1 last year in a team tournament in paris with a similar style pairing. (Madrak2 and doomy2)

- harkevitch

I feel doomy3 has good game in to him. Clouds help protect my heavies.(so we both play the clouds game) admonition forces favorable trades and whelps deny a second heavy onto my own.

I feel it is a matter of who feats first. (Rage and stone can punch a heavy dead on feat
Played a different pairing on the WTC last year (dutch player here) so can't really comment on that.

-vlad 1
Had no problem against him with madrak2 last year so do not see any problems here.

If both are in a pairing then i am not sure if I can keep doomy3 long enough behind the clouds against vlad.

Cygnar

- Doomy3 has game into most matchups. (Including haley2, have not lost against her yet. Counterfeat and play for scenario)

- sloan
Doomy3 cannot hide behind the clouds so I have to keep him out of range or block with beasts and run and feat.

Madrak2 is solid into her. Assasination just wont happen. And she can't shoot enough of the table before my fenns engage. Usually win on scenario.

Again.... If this is their pairing, it's list chicken again...

As a side note. Against hordes the combination of mulg animus, admonition on him, whelps spawning and the double cost scroll can be too much to deal with besides feat.

Against circle, this will mean primal will cost 5 fury. So only 1 beast can be primaled. And since you need to send in more than one to kill him this can be ballbusting.

I switched from doomy2 to 3 because of the utility he offers. (Scroll, implacability, admonition, feat) the alpha with doomy2 is Nice. Bit sometimes it is just not enough to trade.

I also thought about going with D3 / Grissel2 first. But now I changed to D2 / Grissel2 because of the high potent possible assassination with both lists. Grissel plays well into enemy shootie and D2 can handle the remaining lists.
