Went to a Fear Itself Tournament (my second).

I wasn't sure I was going to go, as I had come down with a bad cold and hadn't heard from any of the local guys that could make the trip. Friday night, I checked my phone and got a text that a local could go so the next morning, I woke up and felt ok and decided to go.

We made it up to the shop in Valdosta in plenty of time and the tournament actually started an hour late, but that was ok. I got my two boosters and noticed one of them was noticeably heavier than the other.I wanted another SR Colossus!

I opened the boosters and got Angrir and Kuurth!! I also got two Asgardian Trolls, both of the Iron Fist figures (with one extra Might Iron Fist), Heimdall and copies of Valkyrie and Black Widow. I ended up trading the Mighty Iron Fist for Greithoth and traded Angrir for Null. I was happy with Angrir but the guy who offered to trade for it was the same guy that GAVE me a FI Hawkeye the first time I showed up for a tournament, so I gladly traded him.



Kuurth and Nul are huge! Greithoth is big too, and looks really cool.



All of the figures I ended up with.



How did I do? Not so good, but that's ok. I went 1-3 and could have been 2-2, the first game was close. The third game I played I got destroyed by a range FI team and the funny thing is, the next game he played ran almost exactly like the game I played him. Same spots for both teams, same outcome. FI Serpent, Dr. Strange and Ms. Marvel destroys.

There was also a 300 point constructed tournament afterwards and I ran Shatterstar, Korvus, Silver Samurai and Oracle. They don't do so well against ASM Nightmare. I hate ASM Nightmare. I really do. Mainly because I don't own him, but still, I hate ASM Nightmare :)

Oh, the MVP of my team in the FI tournament? Without adoubt, the 25 point Asgardian Troll.

I was going to cut and paste the Asgardian Troll dial from the HCR Primer reviews but that dial is wrong.The ones they had posted were posted on April 1st :). The trols first click has Super strength and 3 damage, so is you do it right, he can hit for 5 damage. In all of my games, I hit at least once, if not twice before the troll got knocked out. Well worth the cost.
