Tournament Report by Zaq
Title of my
tournament report: "How the X-men Triumphed over Adversity and Defeated the Big
Cheese"
I came to
The Dragon's Lair in
Then I saw
my opponents team. It was the horrible Kingdom Come Superman Cheese team!
It kind of figured my paltry theme team was going to fight the only cheese
player at our venue. But I prepared my forces, and I gave it my best shot.
Here's the teams:
X-Men (and
collected mutants): U Nightcrawler, U Phoenix (ultimate), V Magick, R Jean Grey,
E Gambit, V Rogue, V Spider-Man (ult), R Destiny, E Beast (ult), E Wolfsbane, E
Psylocke
Cheese: U
KC Superman, R Pyro (3), R Destiny (2), U Xorn, E Paramedic (2), LE Matches
Malone
Looked
pretty unbeatable, right? Fortunately, fate was on my side, and I was able to
send him home packing! I sent Rogue, Magick, and Nightcrawler behind the lines
to attack his Pyros and Destinies. The climax came in the following battle
between Supes and
-Supes is
TKed and attacks
-My turn! I
move in Beast, he outwits Supes invulnerablility. I also move up Destiny and
Gambit. Gambit perplexes up Phoenixs attack.

At this
point we ran out of time, and I didn't get the victory points, but the battle
was definitely on my side! The moral of my little story is, never be afraid to
play a theme team, and never back down in the face of
cheesiness.
As Tim
Allen says, "Never give up, never
surrender!"
