That part where we mention not having a list of Regionals...yeah, ignore that.

In this episode we start with a brief look at our first tournament with the terrain deck rules, and then go off on multiple tangents about a certain favorite deployment of ours, the disappearance of Daqan and Waiqar from our local meta, and how Waiqar don't seem to be competitive right now (if you have a solution, let us know!).

We also share some ideas about what you can do to prep for Regionals, and give a short introduction to our narrative league format created by Shane. The link to the narrative format is in the show description if you want to check it out.

Enjoy!

Dear Mr. Waiqar.

I have been very evil all year, so for this Deathmas (religious holiday where you get gifts) I have a long wishlist:

Best regards and an eternal (after)life

10 units and 9 copies of Rank? I'm in.

The other one definitely looks good as well, I want to try both of these out and see how it goes. We'll have to see if we can get some games in with them in the next couple weeks, thanks!

Don’t shy away from the rank discipline on the archers it’s more flexible than combat ingenuity. It lets you dig for more damage when needed or dig for a surge if needed.

Do you have some pre-set deployment for this to max out overlapping arcs?

I'm interested in the overall game plan you attempt to execute with both these lists. Also anecdotes about how it succeeds against various Uthuk compositions.

Not doubting that these lists are good. Looking to try them out against my uthuk buddies and I want to avoid misplays if possible.

Initiative 1 guys, the league you talk about at the end sounds awesome! I'm looking forward to hearing how it works out in the next few episodes.

I have been having some success with a Waiqar build for a few games. It decisively (100+ MOV) beat a rookie Uthuk player running my tourney lisn’t and has now beaten an experienced Latari player twice with roughly 60 and 40 point wins. Not a huge sample size, but it’s been the most promising Waiqar build I’ve tried in a while.

Honestly, Triumphant Cry has been a lynchpin to this. There is some challenge keeping the two big blocks near each other for Dispatch Runner, but DR is a nice to use, I think it is not a must have unless I face another Deathstar type build

Thanks! The first week was pretty wacky, have week two tomorrow night. I am facing Uthuk and preparing to get dumpstered.
