SurreyLee Posted June 1, 2017 Report Share Posted June 1, 2017 Fairly new to outcasts and I don't see too much comment on our very own CR7 member, Pride. On the face of it there are a lot of models he's competing with the points cost but his card discarding mechanic or damage is in my opinion fairly powerful. He seem such a resource drain for the oppo to deal with, i just wonder why i don't see him talked about. Enlighten me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seadhna Posted June 1, 2017 Report Share Posted June 1, 2017 Because for 8 points you get Sue who does a lot more. There's usually no room for a second 8 ss model in Outcasts, especially since we have so many good 10ss models. Then again, the master getting the most mileage out of Pride is Jack who is way better off taking Sue, Envy, Greed and Lust. I don't see a consistent build with Pride in it, honestly. But why listen to the internets? They will tell you that Strongarm Suit and Lazarus are good models and that Hodgepodge Emissary isn't (for me the opposite has always been true). If Pride works in your games, go to town with him. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DXXXVIII Posted June 1, 2017 Report Share Posted June 1, 2017 Hes not bad. Hes just too expensive. You get a sue, a nix a mad dog for that price range. and they are less prone to dying and better at dealing damage. His aura is nice but... he suffers from the same weakness old montresor suffered. Youwant him to get in the heatof things and annoy and tarpit the enemy but... he justtt dies too easily. His damage seems fine but can be negated easily. Your oppoent is allways able to pick the the better choice. Damage or cards. ANd well... mad dogs and sues damage is just as fine as well... Sadly i dont see many of the crossroad seven models get any play at all. most are 1-2 points overpriced. And gettiing 3 min damage 3 rapid fire shotgun shells to the face is most often a better drain of cards than pride could provide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terwox Posted June 1, 2017 Report Share Posted June 1, 2017 He's cool, and has a neat model, but is outclassed by other stuff so you don't see him much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue1 Posted June 1, 2017 Report Share Posted June 1, 2017 About the only place I tend to run Pride is in some of my Misaki builds. The threat of her assassinate trigger makes the choices much harder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freman Posted June 2, 2017 Report Share Posted June 2, 2017 For a rather pointless exercise you can take Creeping Terror on him, use Guilty to make Hamelin Tormented, and make his No Charge aura 7" instead of 6". I'm not sure under what niche circumstances you'd want to, but the option is there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CapnBloodbeard Posted June 2, 2017 Report Share Posted June 2, 2017 The other issue is that the crossroads 7 box is so physically expensive and it's either a gimmick crew or you can't use most of them. Are the models available individually? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The most expensive box set in the game and you'll barely get any use out of it. You're either using one model occasionally, or the whole thing as a theme crew in a social match. You never see Pride because nobody owns the damn thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoylentRobot Posted June 5, 2017 Report Share Posted June 5, 2017 I've got him. But yeah, I've only ever used him in the wacky Crossroads Seven game with all seven of them. When I'm not doing that, I just cant justify taking him over Sue, the other cool Outcast guitar man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kolath Posted June 9, 2017 Report Share Posted June 9, 2017 Never played with pride, but I use Lust in outcast crews all the time. She adds very welcome movement and disruption effects. She also can become a crazy card draw engine in a Hamelin crew. Greed might also have a spot? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
