Run The Length Episode 8: Criminal Syndicate vs SHIELD

[@beno5324]

Still the unquestionably best battle reports for MCP on youtube.

This is a really great battle report style. I’m sure it takes a lot of work but boy is it easier to find time to get through a 20 minute battle report than a 90 minute one.

[@VincentCurkov]

It does take a lot of work. But I struggle to watch feature length battle reports.

[@dwarrenmsp]

Still the best batrep style around. Straight to the point. At the end of the day, we know the reason Pat lost was due to that disgraceful unpainted Ulik.

[@drsnake10]

Love this style of battle report. When I see one drop, I stop what I'm doing and watch them. My buddy plays a lot of Shield and this is perfect intel to go against him.

[@VincentCurkov]

Awesome. Glad you love them!

[@TYLERRULEZ47]

Excellent report! Can't wait to see more as the post-Ministravaganza and new core box shake ups start to settle in.

[@VincentCurkov]

We recorded a podcast last night not sure when it will go up but sub to the feed so you don’t miss it. (It’s in the description)

[@alasdairglen3008]

Unpainted Ulik 😂. Great video man, no-one does it better

[@defenstrator4660]

Another great battle report. I like that you explained the mistakes being made for more efficient play. We’re there any plays you would have done differently yourself?

[@kingmarke6940]

Love it! Nice to see Shield in scoundrels vs Kingpin - a combination I've personally struggled with as Shield, but Pat's choices were weird to me. I'm thinking it would've been easier for him with wider list with more displacement? Usually I'm playing against wider crims at 20, but maybe he had his reasons. Score was close until the end.

[@kristiankarlsson2116]

Yet another great battle report. No plans on a Bird box SHIELD game? ;) Are you going to do a more in depth review of new Iron Man in the future? Been testing SHIELD a little and new Iron Man looks really interesting.

[@VincentCurkov]

I will almost certainly talk more about new iron man but I really want to talk from experience next time so I am working on that. Bird box is a throw back 🤣. Not sure I’m capable.

[@shaunkrogulski9619]

Great battle report as always! I am curious about Pat's choice to use both Ulik and red skull 2. Red skull 2 is kinda squishy for a 5 and the grunts don't benefit from the kingpin leadership.

[@VincentCurkov]

I always thing the Red Skull2 pick into shield is questionable.

[@Coyote81]

What are you thoughts about Rocket and Groot into this list as splashes, stark armory plus deadly duo? You could get into xmas land with "The initiative" plus :A new Age" on rocket.

[@seejaypee]

Unpainted Ulik returns!!

[@VincentCurkov]

I hope he paints him. I have a goof for that too. 😅

[@seejaypee]

@@VincentCurkov haha get his ass!

[@buddylangner]

Do you think you can still play Helios laser with his leadership? Seems like you spend way more power between his leadership and Jarvis. Good Game, I'm excited to see and hear more about Invincible Ironman and Stark Armory.

[@VincentCurkov]

I’m still figuring it out but I’m playing 2 of stark armory, Helios, upgrade.

[@buddylangner]

Upgrade? Isn't that Invincible Iron Man's leadership. What is the 3rd card?@@VincentCurkov

[@VincentCurkov]

@buddylangner it is his leadership. But if I was on say last line of defense I could play armory and Helios.

[@buddylangner]

I understand now, makes sense. thanks for clarifying.@@VincentCurkov

[@martinward3958]

I'm a new SHIELD player, and haven't played it before the Winter Soldier nerf. Is he still worth putting on a table/roster? I'm a bit lost on how to list build with them now. My favorite models to use are both Nick Fury(s) and set 1 Iron Man. Should I just swap to Hawkeye, or do I want other 3 threat affiliated options to cover what Bucky does?

[@VincentCurkov]

Oh boy do I have a video coming out for you this week! I have capital T thoughts about this topic. TLDR is I still play him just way less.

[@sekh765]

As someone that really only plays casually, what is the strategy behind all the passes?

[@smaddox1990]

Pat won today
