    Tony's got a list of all the wild and wooly teams you should expect to see on Realm Championships weekend. Make sure your gauntlet is fully stocked, or you might find yourself in deep trouble!

    I can't imagine Zomms doing anything on this map.  Zomm loses bad to Velen wall, and there is bound to be many Velen walls or similar team out there.  And there mobility/speed is not gaining anything on this map.

    Call me crazy, but I think Zomms have a decent shot against Velen, depending on how it's played. Do I hear a challenge here? :)

    I played zomms against Velen on the NACC map against Ayers after NACC but before worlds map was released and got killed (I think I was the first to mention Zomms on these boards, not that I am claiming to have invented tehm).  Granted my ABCs weren't really optimized, but I got slaughtered (I threw in the towel around tick 11 when it was like 15 to 1 and he was healing back to near full health).  I will happily play velen against zomm a la the match that crits happen covered (as soon as I get my computer set back up, I just moved).

    All my expose armors were getting cleansed and I kept critting against the bulwark.  I couldn't manuever around the bulwark (Either I suck or Mike is that good, you decide).  When you are only throwing 3 or 4 dice against 4 or 5 defense not much goes through, then it gets split to graccus and chain healed with a reroll (wrath totem).  Not to mention the ping back from the Hand and the flash of light from graccus.  I suppose a distract or two might do well to get on the hill and that might change things a bit and the map is more open to allow more manueverability, but I just don't believe it can get to 24 (no darkness boots) fast enough.

    I'd enjoy playing you sometime on Vassal and see how it turns out!

    I don't recall the last time anything like it was said, so here goes, Tony.

    Party All the Time is one of my favorite Article Series, and I love the detail you've gone into with this one. You and Ben have both done an amazing job of tailoring your messages to the constantly shaping meta leading up to the next major event.

    I can hardly wait to see what Tri-color Party articles are sure to come out next!

    Cheers!
