When last we discussed my escalation tournament, I was was highlighting my complete lack of Devout in this list. Devouts are particularly useful with everyone’s favorite pubescent flying godhead. The humble Devout has some really useful abilities:
Spend a focus and you can’t cast spells at Harby (pay close attention to this one)
Shoot at the Harby and the Devout jumps in front and takes one for the team.
Stop in it’s melee range and eat a +2 attack P+S 13 boosted damage roll before you get to attack the Harby.
Now, having said that, it was time to play Trolls…Grissel to be exact. My buddy Dallas and I have the most epic battles. We met that Wednesday in the 500 pt round. For those of you not familiar with Grissel, she has the fell call known as Hoof It. This call makes that slow and ponderous troll army really fast. Top of turn 2, I had 3 cav surrounding the Harby. He kind of bet the show on this gambit…that was when Dallas discovered Cataclysm. After throwing down two boosted cataclysms, all three of his cav were dead.
