Meta

I enjoy playing my witches and budget spirits but i would like to play a competitive bg.However i have no idea what the meta is or where to start,the forums are pretty dead and i am mostly online when there are like 20 people playing so i cant really see what the high ranks are running.Can someone point me in the right direction?

 

Honestly, I have no idea if FW has a solid goodstuff list. My expectation is that it is some independently strong runes and then several thematic modules mashed together. The faction, compared to pretty much all the others, is lagging in terms of raw rune power. My advice: draft what you think a list would look like, and tweak from there. Start full highlander and cut as necessary.

 

Abomination
Death guard
Death Harvester
Death Caster
Dusk creeper
Executioner
Lost Queen
Mute Stalker
Polluted Martyr
Risen Yeti
Serkan
Stitched seamstress
Stitched Tyrant

anathema
domination
haunt
haunting grip
mobilization
soulbane
steal life
soulreave

banner
unholy tomb

reapers blade
sac dagger
vendetta

 

I guess that looks strong. It doesn't really stand out the way some other factions' goodstuff does is all.

 

i use coragh, corpse golem, dusk creeper shadowshank, ethreal soldier,death guard, fleshblight zombie,mute stalker,risen moga....

 

It wins me alot of games though

 

Thanks for all the replies.I have come up with an experimental meta bg,mostly champions i have already played before and which i have some experience with,and the standard fw toolbox.I will test it out and make changes as i see what works and what doesnt.



This is the new version:

 

you have to consider that you are running 4 scorn champions without a ToH

 

You can run Pariah instead of scorn on the executioners

 

Always run TOH and UT...ALWAYS!!!!

 

I have stoped playing that bg some time ago,i am gonna have another go at meta after i finish fleshing out my new bg,and it will definitely include toh and ut.

Meanwhile it would be nice if anyone else posted theirs meta bg.

 

I would consider cheap meat, true spirits and death benefit to be our meta bgs atm. I run creeps and witches for funsies. I can post any bgs you would like to see that i have

 

If you dont mind,post your meta bgs.

 

Im at work so give me a little while bud, then ill put em up

 

what about a good attrition?

 

Idk if there is such a thing atm

 

....

 

Great bg,i saw you kick ass with it in ranked.

 

How on earth do you manage without a soulreave or reapers blade?

 

I imagine two Doom also appropriately handle problems that Soulreave would normally take care of; with the added benefit of not needing board presence?
