so i went to a tournament for the infinity gauntlet a week ago. it was a 700 point build team and i at the last minute made a avengers team. it was a pretty formidable team, i had nova, hawkeye, captain marvel, iron man, hulk, amadous cho. it was made to smash stuff. first opponent i fought had a 600pt Galactus ,amadous cho and an astral dr.strange. I've taken on the old galactus pretty easily so i was confident but then he told me about the rest of his force. first off he gave the infinity gauntlet to galactus and then he informed me of galactus'special herald power. the trait lets galactus bring a character outside of his force or from my team of 150pt or less and make it galactus herald. the herald gets power cosmic and gets a plus 1 to all its stats. so in a sense he was able to play a 850pt team in a 700 pt tournament.
the herald he choose was 150pt superman. i didn't even touch that superman who was just hypersonicing around picking up objects and smashing my team. i pushed to running shot bot iron-man and nova they both missed and were taken off later. i got one hit to galactus thanks to hawkeye but then that gave galactus a revenge token which gives his herald a free action to do whatever. and that's how hulk died in one hit.
the only character i was able to KO was astral dr.strange.
i had too grit my teeth and shack that guys hand, it sucked.
and i was not the only one from my group of Friends who fought that guy. they all lost. but one of my friends which will not be named in this blog because i don't think he would aprpreciate that told that guy to his face that he was running a 800pt team in a 700 pt tournament and he shouldn't be so happy about his victory. I'm paraphrasing so it doesn't sound as cool as how he said it.
that galactus is not built for tournament play like that and that night proved why. even the dormammu has a herald thing but the character has to be part of your force. if the herald power at that low of points it should have been like dormommu's it would have fixed the broken aspects of the galactus.
