    Since Boston is coming up I would like to know what people think will show big in the meta. I'll just throw some ideas down here.

    Vashj

    HTH or HTM

    Jaina zoo

    Mortimers

    please let me know if i missed or added anything that should or should not be there

    Thanks for reading:)

    That's like asking to ppl which ABC and minis to take to Boston to counter their team imo

    That's pretty much it for the Tier 1. Then you've got a bunch of Tier 2 stuff.

    Various variations on Savin + Bulwark and friends. Good against hunter-based Jaina, slight underdog to HHT, basically loses to Mortimer and Vashj.

    Conqueror Aluna. Loses to a decent HHT player, beats Jaina by a hair, I *want* to say it beats Mortimer but it doesn't actually seem clear cut, and it either beats Vashj or not based on what figs Vashj brings (I went through two or three Aluna teams at Realms with Vashj, though admitedly the players' level wasn't very high). Viper Sting might have changed the matchups a bit if you play Shadowsun.

    Cairne teams. My opinion is that it beats Morts and Jaina as long as it's built for speed (Charge, Crusader Aura) and has some way of increasing crit odds without totalling too high an honor cost. It seems terrible against Vashj, in the testing I've done, and on this map HHT should be able to hold its ground against it if it sticks to the middle.

    Fish sticks. Aggro only needs apply (Ice Block is gimmicky and loses to anyone who packs hate). Pretty good against both the epic teams as 8 points is 2/3rds of what you need to win, but you can't beat a Brick HHT *at all* even if it lands a trio of Flamestrikes hitting two guys (you won't hit three unless your opponent is a complete noob). Mortimer seems to be a losing proposition too due to 3 Resist and Jhuroon being able to just kill the fishies for a very low investment of ticks, but I lost interest in testing once we saw the HHT matchup.
