125 Saeryn1 RoW vs Kraye1 SoT
14.10.2021, Brawlmachine
Another Brawlmachine game, this time against Cygnar. I decided to bring Saeryn just to shake things up. I have found that the learning potential from analysing Brawl games is a bit limited so I will not spend so much time on these battle reports going forward and instead focus more on the actual 75 point games I get in.

Cygnar starts.
Turn 1A
Turn 1B
Keeping outside of trick shot range
Turn 2A
Centurion in zone, Polarity field is up
Turn 2B
I try a trick where I can prevent the Centurion from spending focus and get to my Carnivean, but forgot about beacon giving out free charges. I should also have put something behind the Carnivean to prevent Thunderbolts.
Score 1-1
Turn 3A
With beacon my opponent is able to charge and kill the Sorceress&Hellion and thunderbolt the Carnivean out.
Score 1-3
Turn 3B
I go for an assassingation where I throw the Centurion over Kraye. It turns out that he is Steady, but I luck out and hit all my follow-up attacks anyway. My damage rolls are also on fire, so Kraye goes down.
Victory for the Legion of Everblight!
:: Evaluation ::
I should probably sit down and read through Kraye’s whole card before next time I play him, because missing free charge from feat should have cost me the game. Luckily I also didn’t know about Steady so I went for the assassination which looked pretty good if he could have been knocked down. Again I was lucky enough to spike the dice rolls and get an undeserved win.
