GenCon 2014 spoilers är ute!

"Zap Bradigus is way underwhelming.

He has literally no good match ups. Every faction will just crush him trivially because Wolds are super shitty and unplayable. Seriously what does he do against any faction? All the Wolds will be alpha-ed trivially and blown up by that alpha. Even if you can deny the alpha they’ll be shot to pieces because Wolds are super easy to shoot off the table. Caine2 will just shoot him off the table while he has Flesh of Clay and an army full of Shield Guards. He has literally zero good match ups against any of the popular war-nouns in every faction. He also can’t crack ARM at all. It takes 5 stacks of Synergy, a nigh impossible task to get, to make any Wold effectively able to mess up a heavy. Woldguardians that aren’t at least POW 22 don’t one round anything. POW 18 Wold Wardens seem pretty shitty, they better be POW 20 before they even think about taking on a heavy. How does he plan to kill Colossals at all? I mean sure Vyross2 seems to do it with Griffons that are Focus limited but he’s got awesome Ret synergy bonuses. It’s not like Zap has a Feat to help him deliver the Wolds to enemy heavies by giving them a huge boost to their speed. He’s also super complicated to play with that finesse heavy Feat and having to build in a non-standard way for Circle. Some chumps will claim that this is ‘skill intensive’ but that’s just another word for bad. Players who have lots of skill still play the OP ‘casters and ‘locks. If ‘skill intensive’ were a thing why wouldn’t these players use shitty models and unlock their potential? People who claim that Zap is hard to use are just postponing the inevitable and irrefutable conclusion that he’s bad warlock and should feel bad.

Borka2 is worse now because pointless comparisons!

Xerxis2 completely negated Borka2 by being a completely different model with completely different rules! Both are Cavalry and have a POW 15 weapon which makes them similar enough for comparison. Let’s ignore the differences between being a Large Base and being a Battle Engine because fuck that sort of insightful discussion. Instead let’s point out how theoretically it’s super easy for Xerxis2 to ride up to enemy models and do a shit ton more work than Borka2 can do in a single round because he doesn’t have any crit effects and crit effects are the worst thing in the entire game. Xerxis can become MAT 10 by bonding to a Krea and casting it’s animus! That is such bullshit, it takes a whole 3 point insanely good support solo to make Borka2 MAT 10! Borka2 does literally nothing in the games he’s played in because having a decent melee presence and an awesome Feat plus some cool spells is nothing. What he desperately needs is for Snow Shroud to be cost 1 and not an upkeep so he can spam it and affect all his models with his pretty mediocre Feat. I really wish Borka2 hadn’t become so much shittier because other factions got cool new toys. Why does Helga have Borka1’s Mark I Feat? Whatever the reason it clearly makes Borka2 a worse model as a result."
