Phobos Strike Team Kill Team Review

[@rikkid8106]

Whoop! My Favourite team. Not had a chance to properly look over the rules get. Looking forward to this. ❤

[@CanYouRollaCrit]

You'll enjoy it (:

[@BrackenAlistair]

You can probably blow the saboteur explosive using counteract activation. Play with him last, move in, plant and dash away, survive one enemy activation then choose him for counteract and boom.

[@josephetheredge1133]

Also you can use the Omni scrambler to make sure the target holds still even if you lose initiative.

[@CanYouRollaCrit]

Yeah but really hard to use in single activations. It's just not that reliable anymore imo

[@StormDunakin]

Just played a game with them a few nights ago. The combat blade equipment that goes to the whole team is so nice.

[@CanYouRollaCrit]

Yeah it's really nice

[@KwadDamyj]

Now if only you could attack with all weapons equipped so Reivers could become sneaky walking cuisinarts...

[@gunslingerspartan]

getting double shoot for free instead of spending on bolter discipline is a great change tbh

[@CanYouRollaCrit]

Yeah sooo good

[@CatCraine]

Good to see we agree on the equipment. I was wracking my brain to see if I DIDN'T want any of it. Time to break out the Ravenguard!

[@CanYouRollaCrit]

Ravenguard Represent

[@diegobrando3430]

Ahhhh… thank you Mr. Crit. Now I know how best it utilize my Blood Angels!

[@CanYouRollaCrit]

Oooh nice choice

[@pyrosandro3958]

My friend, I've just started with WH and I consumed almost all of your vids. Will you make a new kill team tier list any time soon? Keep up the amazing job!

[@CanYouRollaCrit]

Haha thanks, probably once we get an FAQ (:

[@hechy3782]

Love the videos! Been waiting for hunter clade since ep. 1. Hope it's a good one as they changed a lot! ❤

[@ChaseTheChamp11]

Thanks for the video. Its another great one as always...still waiting on my Void Dancers ;)

[@CanYouRollaCrit]

Soon 👀

[@DodgethisCZ]

Yes! My first kill team ever… I love them so much :D

[@CanYouRollaCrit]

They are fun

[@DodgethisCZ]

@@CanYouRollaCrit hmm what are your top 5 picks fun teams so far from rules?

[@CanYouRollaCrit]

@DodgethisCZ hmm that's really hard, i need to think about that haha

[@patrickvondersaar4836]

Can you use the saboteurs detonate in a counteract? It seems to me you move him last reposition plant dash up to a group of expended ops then hopefully you can counteract and pop goes the weasel.

[@CanYouRollaCrit]

Oooh yeah you can!

[@patrickvondersaar4836]

@@CanYouRollaCrit if only they had wrath of vengeance to move dash place marker then on counteract dash detonate

[@WindlordRyu]

Like how the Minelayer can safely sit on his own mine and fire away. Does he just whack anyone coming too close in the head with it?

[@CanYouRollaCrit]

Pretty much haha

[@delivered115]

There's a 5 man reiver box. Hounds of morki i think. It's basically the standard guys plus the space wolf upgrade sprue

[@CanYouRollaCrit]

Yeah only issue is it's only slightly cheaper than 10 reivers ):

[@CrimsonTemplar2]

I do wish you didn’t have to pay for the order flip as a strat gambit now. The voxbreaker makes me wish the Comms universal equipment would work on their ability.

[@CanYouRollaCrit]

Yeah weird comms equipment doesn't work more

[@lewissinclair3348]

Noob question but im looking to get into kill team and i really like the look of phobos but was does classified after 1 year mean?

[@slackeratlarge575]

They are only valid at tournaments for 1 year. But can always be played in friendly games

[@CanYouRollaCrit]

Valid at classified events/GW events for 1 year

[@lewissinclair3348]

Cheers boys, appreciate that!

[@mdigibou4614]

played phobos into aod yesterday. definitely feel outclassed in the 1 to 1 especially when they take duelist

[@GundamReviver]

Aod? Oh angels of death

[@CanYouRollaCrit]

Yeah AoD are rough, at least they are locked into tactics at events

[@jacobraucher5350]

Do you think with the verticality of the new terrian it may be better to equip reivers with carbines instead of pistols?

[@CanYouRollaCrit]

Nah, still pistols imo

[@jacobraucher5350]

@CanYouRollaCrit I appreciate it, just starting kill team out now with a phobos squad, time to track down a box of 5 reivers

[@andanotherthing6687]

do you really need the reivers ? does the incursor/inflitrator box substiture the oos phobos box ?

[@CanYouRollaCrit]

Yeah they're amazing

[@KwadDamyj]

They look good for capping/counter-capping objectives so I'd say if you got them you'd be good to take one

[@solonwilliams1965]

You make 1 reiver out of the box. There are enough knife and pistol arms to make it work. Just won't have the skull helmet.

[@lightkon1477]

For reiver warriors, you taking the carbine or pistol?

[@CanYouRollaCrit]

Pistol but carbines are tempting

[@TheRainfield]

Do you see this team being targeted for any changes? I know its hard to say now, but since your a playtester ;). This was my first elite team, and i love them. But they feel weak compared to my other elites like Warpcoven, Angels of Death and Nemesis Claw

[@CanYouRollaCrit]

Probably not, they're in a good spot imo

[@Randobar]

Cant you just plant the explosives on a key point or on a way to your home objective to slow down enemys since they dont want to be within 2" of that thing

[@CanYouRollaCrit]

You can but not great vs other elites who can get around it

[@vespasandengines]

So they’re being cut out next year?

[@CanYouRollaCrit]

From classified events

[@IgnacioGlezCllo]

What exactly does "classified for only 1 year"!??

[@CanYouRollaCrit]

Usable at classified/GW events for 1 year

[@barrett_miniatures3408]

@@CanYouRollaCrit And after 1 year, are they no loner valid? I apologize im not familiar with competitive play.

[@slackeratlarge575]

Reivers actually good at something?!? *starts digging through pile of shame for 6 year old reiver sprue*

[@CanYouRollaCrit]

They were already good before in KT hahaha

[@BigVosss]

What did you mean by being only classified for one year?

[@hechy3782]

GW is allowing "classified" teams to play in official tournaments. Older teams are classified for one more year. Newer teams for much longer. All teams will still get updates, but not allowed in official gw tournaments

[@CanYouRollaCrit]

Legal at classified/gw events for a year

[@NK-wl6bl]

To sum it up, it means you spend money for models, spend more money and loads of time painting them just so you can't use them at events in the future.

[@UnkaStunka]

[@BigVosss]

@hechy3782 Ah, I see. Thanks, mate.

[@r3dcoat397]

Hi Kyle

[@CanYouRollaCrit]

Yes

[@dark-hh5ho]

I think they nerfed them cause they are a first year 2nd edition kill team and want to sell new models

[@CanYouRollaCrit]

Nah they're still good
