MetaphoricDragn Posted February 28, 2017 Report Share Posted February 28, 2017 So with GG17 being less kill oriented than I i'm used to dealing with, it has me eyeing Voices Pandora as a possible option. I would still need to watch out for Misery suicides with frame for murder, but paralyze seems like it would be a strong option regardless. I'm wondering if people think similarly, or if I'm off base with this one. If people agree, what else would you be grabbing to go with her in GG17?

Kirby Posted February 28, 2017 Report Share Posted February 28, 2017 Paralyze Pandora can be strong, but I think she has too many hard counters or difficult match-ups to put her in the top end. She's still very good, but Lilith's movement effects, Collodi's Fast bubble, Titania's marker dropping, and potentially Lucius Mk2 play the scheme game better.

necroon Posted February 28, 2017 Report Share Posted February 28, 2017 I have found that a Wisp or 2 turn Inflect (or other actions) into a fun way to place scheme markers although the positioning definitely takes practice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joel Posted February 28, 2017 Report Share Posted February 28, 2017 Pandora can happily do all the GG2017 stuff happily. Doesn't need to be the voices version though. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ringsnake Posted March 1, 2017 Report Share Posted March 1, 2017 Why not just go into full on murder mode, and distribute paralyze and insignificant to make sure the only VP your foe gets is from Frame for a Murder? They only get frame VP the once, and if you table them, you're getting all the rest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MetaphoricDragn Posted March 1, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2017 While I am familiar with the theory of "they can't play if their dead" in practice I find that does not go as smoothly as one would hope. That's why I was eyeing a more control oriented pandora and I wanted to explore that, However, thread got derailed fast =/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She's more than capable of killing anything herself (read her damage track as the best beater track + 1). I like to run her with Lilitu, Doppelganger, and then two Illuminated (or Illuminated/Johan or 1x Nekima/Teddy/Rider). Other stuff to run schemes, really liking WilloWisp + Spawn Mother due to the extra activations, but you could just go with like double Silurid or Silurid + Sorrow/Madness?

Ergonomic Cat Posted March 13, 2017 Report Share Posted March 13, 2017 Pandora is amazing for scoring Accusation. Put Incite on something after it's activated. Next turn, Accuse two models. When the first tries to go, pull the incite trigger. Paralyze the one that's still accused. Profit. Alternatively, Pandora goes first, paralyzes two models and incites a third. Accuse them both with a Gupps. Whichever one you don't pull Accuse off, paralyze it again. I really liked her in Interference/Accusation/Claim Jump. She can push around to help with interference, she can auto score accusation, and she can freeze areas of the board so your claims are safe. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you running straight gupps or the spawn mother/will o wisp combo? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ergonomic Cat Posted March 13, 2017 Report Share Posted March 13, 2017 I just did Gupps as my scheme runners. Between the fact that they could score Claim Jump on their own and the worry that my opponent would also take Accused they seemed like the best choice for scheme runners. I took Pandora, Thorn, Lilitu, Claw, Widow Weaver a couple Gupps and a Waldgeist. Not very thematic, but had a lot of area denial, covered a lot of space, everything could reasonably defend itself, and WW gave a bit more paralyze.
