Result: Win
55 - 26 - 0
35 Point Process of Elimination (Two Zones, one Objective in each, all Neutral).
Arkadius (Tier 4) - 3x Warhogs, 4x Razor Boars, Targ, Brigands (Min), Bone Grinders (Max)
Ashlynn - Galleon, 2x Mule, Lyissa, Aiyana + Holt
Summary: Mercs went first, Jacks and Ashlynn in the centre, Aiyana and Holt on my left with Lyassa ADing in front of them.
Brigands were all alone on the Right Flank, Razor Boars were all on the left and everything else was a clump in the middle facing the Jacks.
Mercs ran everything up. Three of the Razor Boars ran up, as did the Warhogs. Arkadius moved up, cast his upkeeps and Feated, only activating the Razor Boars, who killed Aiyana and Holt and tied up Lyissa. The RaBo left behind activated after a failed Feat Frenzy charge, moved up to block the Mules.
Ashlynn Quickens herself, moves up and kills the advanced Razor Boar. Feats. Mules advance, kill one Razor Boar and wound another. Galleon damages one Warhog, but fails to drag it in, it advances from Hyper Aggresive.
Front pair of Warhogs charge Galleon, heavily damage it, multiple misses due to Ashlynn's feat. Brigands charge right side Objective, put it down to four health. Razor Boar sticks in to a Mule, doing little. Other Razor Boar kills Lyissa. Bone Grinders screen Arkadius, give him spell range. Arkadius Crippling Grasps the nearest Mule from just outside Ashlynns feat range. Remaining Warhog runs up to the Grasped Mule.
Galleon and Ashlynn kill a Warhog between them, the Mules do a little damage but not much.
Razor Boar on the Mule Frenzies for very little. Brigands Hog Wild the Galleon, putting the Galleon on three health and destroying the Objective. Bone Grinders put extra range on Arkadius spells. Warhog activates, kills Grasped Mule. Arkadius advances, puts Crippling Grasp on Ashlynn. Warhog on the Galleon moves over to Ashlynn, boosts to hit rolls and kills her with the Cleavers.
Performance: 7/10. Ran lots of Fury up, early Feat meant no special removal, but ultimately worth it for killing Aiyana, Holt and eventually Lyissa. I think Ashlynn is happier without the Galleon.
Arkadius - Tier 4 + Feat + Razor Boars can be gold, though I don't expect it to work ever again.
Warhogs - Solid and reliable, Forced Evolution takes one of them to another level though.
Razor Boars - Absolute Gold as solo hunters, and 14 health/armour is decent
Bone Grinders - Invaluable this time around for the +2 range to spells, this time being meatshields was strictly a secondary affair.
Brigands - Worked out, in this list they are just there for contesting/claiming, which they had a decent go at. Hog Wild is great for charge options.
Targ - Did nothing, needed to be closer to the Warhogs, but then would have probably died to the AoE's.
