Regarding Gamin: That’s not especially constructive, nor does it answer the question of why. You are just restating your opinion with no evidence, anecdotes or explanation. Same for golem, Iggy and firebranded. I’m sure plenty agree with you, at least on the firebranded.

Appreciate your logic and thoughts on the rest of who you bring and when. Thanks! I see the rider helping as a schemer but also giving Tomes our for the models you say suck doubles the burning output. Especially for some time df triggers.

because of gg1 u dont need weak models that cant do something very well; for example-automaton is a great model because of his healing, gamin is a bad model because he cant schemeruning well, cant just leave enough for scoring something

I don't doubt you might be a good player, but couldn't this be a case of big fish in a small pond?

Colette is doing very well in tournaments and is top tier, not denying that; but so are doing a lot of other other masters from other factions, and even from arcanist; Sandeep is another powerhouse for example.

sandeep is much more weaker then colette

I play with a friend who introduces me to Malifaux every weekend and he plays 90% of our games with Colette.
I found her too strong in GG0, I agree and it was rare that I win. Since GG1, things have rebalanced and our games are more balanced.
I know the Colette team very well because I have been playing against for 2 or 3 years.
Which master do you play? We can help you, but we must not remain negative.

i play colette very much, so i can win on every strategy ang schemes against every master

Why don't prople like Gamin? Too easy to kill?

They seem decent for 4ss models.

the basic models in kaeris are envy and borgman; rider for schemes; never take gamins, firebranded and golem with iggy; vasquez and firestarter are good, but picking them depends on situation; if u want heal-take medical automaton

Colette is very complicated to kill. On the other hand, the rest of his team is weak. And the Colette team is not good for strats and combines violent.
On V3 I had a hard time understanding how to play against but finally by dint of playing we quickly understand that you have to ignore it as much as possible and focus on the rest of your team.
As said above, there are ways to counter it with figs that ignore defensive triggers or by doing indirect damage or doing attacks that target willpower but I agree with you that it is not. simple ...
On the GG0 it was very (maybe too) strong. On the GG1 it remains strong but can no longer remove the acquired strategy points!

u just don't know how to play with her-she is the strongest master on every strategy in gg1

She is definitelly top tier, but not sure if I'd go all the way to the most powerful one.

A mistake I've seen some players doing that make her even better is attacking her with Df attacks for no reason; that's one of the worst things a player can do versus her. That's damage not going towards her crew, a free bury for her (she will use her df trigger and a stone, so she will reduce from 3 to 5 damage) and later she will use Showstopper and appear where she may disrupt more the other crew/score; it's way better make her bury herself with Twist Ending; she most likely will have to stonne for that and the other player has a chance to stop it winning the duel.

Unless the attack has really crippling effects like Stunned+Slow or you can deny her trigger (like Thunders with Masked Agent, , shockwaves or for example Misaki able to stun her without attacking her), you should just leave her alone or just engage her without attacking.

maybe u just dont know how to play with her; she is the most powerful master in 3e

Can you expand please?
Did you play a lot of games with Colette?
I played a lot of games against Colette and the switch to v3 with the gg0 was very favorable for Colette. But the gg1 has rebalanced that.

what should i explain?) she kills, scores, do everything she wants and opponent just dont know what to do

I play mainly Colette and use her in any given pool but Public Ennemies is by far the worst Strategy for her (more than Reckoning in Season 0).

The main problem is not killing ennemy. You can do it by selecting wisely your targets.

The problem is to keep you Bounty Tokens holder alive until the end of turn.

The best way would be to soften your ennemies with other models and let Colette deliver the final blow with Sword Trick and hit the Trigger to Bury Colette so that you can keep your Bounty Tokens safe. If other models like, for example,Cassandra or Angelica, make the kill your opponent will beat them to death before the end of turn. Performers are fragile (with the exception of Colette and the Duet).

I think that you need to go OOK for this Strategy. A full Performer Crew is far too fragile for this one. And even with OOK models, Colette will struggle more thant other Arcanist Masters like Toni.

Public Ennemies is doable by Colette but it will be very tough games. It also depends on Schemes. If Schemes are movement-related, Colette can be a good choice. If the Scheme pool is also all about killing as the Strategy, I think, it is better to choose another Master.

In a tournament, if Schemes are movement-based and knowing that the game can stop at turn 3 or 4 (end of time), I will choose Colette. Not playing the 5 turns can allow you to score one Strategy point or two  and focus on your Schemes and spreading your models. The opponent will be obliged to chase your speedy models (more difficult to score the Strategy for him especially if he has a melee-oriented crew) or he will score the Strategy but he won't have enough actions left for his Schemes.

In a pool where the Schemes are also about killing, I will take another Master.

 

colette is the most powerful master in 3e and she can score everything including killing strats, it is so easy

Thanks for the games guys!

 

For anyone interested, here is a google document that lists the crew choices and scores of our games so far. If people are interested, I could also put down the schemes chosen. Enjoy!

try to use bandicam

comrades)))), can you all just edit your posts and add crews just for interest and statistics; and still only videos from russian teams, dont be so shy

u just need borgmann in your crew, sometimes carlos and firestarter; golem, firebranded and gamins are useless

Yea, pulsing out focus is how Kang is action efficent, for the cost of a card turn one you generate the equivalent of around 5 AP. 

Another good way to think about Kang is what that Focus allows you to kill or what rules it breaks.

So if pulsing focus onto 2 Railworkers results in you killing an 8ss enforcer, you can thank Kang for that.

Dont forget that Mei Feng is a blaster in a Focus stacking crew. Because she has Breath of Fire Focus is disproportionately effective on her, especially because of Press the Advtantage making it super important to win the inital flip.

Finally, this is a faction with Deisel Engine. I already think the Foundry are uniquely suited to fighting Ressers, but stacking Focus with Deisel Engine is a great way to get around HtW. In this way, the Metal Golem gets a double positive to its attack and a double positive to its damage flip, on a model with a 3/4/6 damage track... 

kang is a bad model in mei crew, there are a lot of models out of keyword which u want to see in your crew; also kang is not so mobile and tanking as other armoured models

How does the Toni one works tho? Unless she is feeded with a lot of Adrenaline/Focused, her damage output isn't that great for a Master (but she is tough as nails tho).

for non-incorporeal models with melee attack resisted by df toni can make 6-12,13 dmg without focused if u will be lucky enough

I agree being able to swich style increases the strength and flexibility. To me Colette has that ability even without the Duett buffed up to eternity while spending AP. Eg. Colette with Duett and 2 Coryphee, Ferdinand Vogel, Cassandra can already be quite a killy crew. Or I played Colette with Toni twice and found this setup quite interesting and strong in beating. There are some ways of doing so. 

this is a very weak list of models, u don't need cassandra and vogel, and both coryphee and duet on the start of a game; if u want just to have fun, maybe
