DanteJH Posted June 10, 2017 Report Share Posted June 10, 2017 Simple question fellow wyrdos, when and why do you take seamus over reva? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khaiden Posted June 12, 2017 Report Share Posted June 12, 2017 That is a very good question! In my case it comes down to what kind of terrain is on the table. IF there is a lot of blocking terrain i prefere Seamus, if there are alot of forests and severe i go for Reva i guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hydranixx Posted June 12, 2017 Report Share Posted June 12, 2017 Though Reva usually outshines him as a source of raw damage, some scheme pools or boards really encourage a Seamus pick. If it's a packed city with tonnes of buildings he'll have a much easier time than her getting around and making his damage count. For denying points, he's a pretty safe master when the pool contains Tail 'Em, Eliminate the Leader and to a lesser extent Accusation. For scoring points, Undercover Entourage is very easy for him to score and even easier for him to fake. Sinister Rep tends to be the more common of his limited upgrades, and it does wonders for powering up your WP attacks or Terrifying abilities, but Bag of Tools can make him very efficient at Dig their Graves and Set Up, and somewhat 'ok' at Search the Ruins and Hidden Trap. He's still a niche pick imo. I usually have to see some combination of Tail 'Em, Eliminate the Leader, Undercover Entourage etc before I start thinking about taking Seamus, and then I want to see lots of blocking impassable terrain before I lock him in. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Math Mathonwy Posted June 14, 2017 Report Share Posted June 14, 2017 I would argue that if the terrain is such that you should go Seamus over Reva, then you actually should be taking Kirai 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daniello_s Posted June 14, 2017 Report Share Posted June 14, 2017 Seamus got really good boost when Carrion Emissary was introduced. I think he is quite good master which can disrupt opponents plan quite quickly. I like him and don't like to play against him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benjoewoo Posted July 14, 2017 Report Share Posted July 14, 2017 You pick Seamus over Reva when: Your collection doesn't include Reva You're demo-ing the game Your terrain is all literally Ht 3+, blocking, and impassable on top You're running belle spam In more seriousness, I'd pick Seamus over Reva based on match up choices. I prefer Seamus to capitalize against certain factions because of their vulnerability to Wp duels, so basically specific Neverborn and TT masters. Alternatively, in GG 2017's high activation favoring scheme/strat line up, I prefer Seamus where the pool requires having higher activation counts and/or I can't rely on Reva to gain activation advantage via killing stuff. Seamus also tends to run independently of his crew moreso than Reva and will usually be more reliable to pin 6 VP on. While the above are true, I have found few situations where the benefits were large enough to warrant the decision--Seamus is preferable in certain match ups--but he's not the anti-faction master of my choice, and generally doesn't make the cut over Reva on merits as opposed to flavor pick. Belle Spam 2018 when that new hench model from the new book releases. #MakeBellesGr8Again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
