So I have been through this thread and SSSK's blog a few times now.
4 games with Marcus
-3 losses
-1 draw
not phased, dig him still overall.
This is more of a question of suits...
he is suit hungry and so is his crew as we all know...how to deal with this?
I seem to generally not pull what I need each hand which is why I always drop a stone for 2 more cards.
I have been running 6 stones with his base crew + a Waldgeist. (irregardless of scheme or strat so I can learn them)
Not getting what I need suit wise for him or leap.
Going to drop the Waldgeist for BoD
dropping RSR for another cat.
Since I have no shooty thought more leap potential could mitigate that and the theory that if I can Alpha kill a key model or 2 of his it will throw their game.
I played a buddy yesterday.
Marcus crew + Waldgesit and 6 stones
he had:
Seamus
Copy Cat Killer
Bete Noire
Madame Sybelle
and 4 belles
between Seamus's sweet murder and copycat hedge trimmers he bled 4 of my stones so I wouldn't lose models as I had no cards to drop.
between that and 8 slows a turn to fight off from the belles, I kind of felt paralyzed. Marcus couldn't draw any suits and had no stones.
One hand I drew all crowes....ALL CROWES!!!!
What do people do with Marcus, run stone heavy 6+?
