4thstringer Posted November 9, 2017 Report Share Posted November 9, 2017 Ok, here's something fun for you to try. I've mentioned something similar before, but i tried it again last nIght and it was glorious. Nellie with guild funds, thalerian stone and an upgrade of your choice, The press, and 2 watchers to help build up evidence. (Alternatively you could use frank for this but I think the stone actually works better) The idea being that you use the watchers to repeatedly build up evidence, and then either they are attacking nellie so you spend that evidence and stones pushing the opponent away, or you don't have to spend evidence, and you get ss from guild funds. I've gone 2-0 with it now, and both of my opponents found it pretty frustrating. Run from the truth is a pretty useful ability. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myyrä Posted November 9, 2017 Report Share Posted November 9, 2017 I'm not sure how much additional benefit the Thalarian Stone actually provides in this setup. Wouldn't lots of evidence and SS alone help keep Nellie alive? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludvig Posted November 9, 2017 Report Share Posted November 9, 2017 Yeah, what benefit does the stone give you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4thstringer Posted November 9, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2017 The stone helps guarantee the misses, so that you can also then get the pushes with evidence. Without it, a thirteen cheated in is still likely to get tied by most attackers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate to be that guy but Francisco gives you +2 for all the attacks and is a first class beater as well. Maybe you were going to use both?

4thstringer Posted November 9, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2017 I would use both, and maybe I will in the future, but I have trouble keeping frank and her together enough to make it worthwhile. There is something fun about watching your opponent read your list and see the stone and look confused, and then start making it work against them.

4thstringer Posted November 9, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2017 I'll admit that I am a bit of a special snowflake when it comes to list building, but give this one a try. I've really liked it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludvig Posted November 9, 2017 Report Share Posted November 9, 2017 I like that you always do something different. If you made the stone work you would deserve some sort of banner next to your avatar. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
