Welcome back to another episode of Across the by Frost.

This is Doctor Norbert coming to you from a post summer haze.

Ah that's nice.

Yeah yeah, it was a really good kind of ups and downs, but very warm and dry.

Good times together, good drinks, good cocktails, good shared experiences.

But you know, I'm just basking that glow as the sun slowly starts skidding up later and later every day.

Damn that was that was poetic as hell.

I was gonna say, I'm coming at you from a dingy alleyway because we're looking at some new spider Man's today.

Okay, there's half the pricess speaking of summer heat, nor but this is half the presses.

This just twenty minutes ago.

Yeah, damn right, AMG just loves Across the by Frost podcast.

It seems like these guys were cold on this time.

We're gonna drop some stuff.

Then we should start conspiracy therapy theory now.

Yeah.

They also it's also that they waited for us to have like actual notes for an episode we're going to We're going to do it.

We were about to record a how to Beat Apocalypse episode, and I spend the weekend like interviewing players that are better than us, writing down all my thoughts, getting anything prepared.

It's the most prepared prepared I've ever been for an episode ever, and that went completely out of the window because they dropped a bunch of new cards on us.

We can't help ourselves, but we're doing it for the people.

Yeah, man, we do.

Hey, by the way, thank you everybody for a wonderful summer.

You guys have been posting pictures of your models, you've been asking questions, you've been correcting some certain instances, and you've been also sponsoring us on Patreon really generously and I'm finding a very very gratifying to do this podcast as a result.

Thank you all.

Yeah, I completely agree.

This is me and all that work on a lot of things together, you know, a bunch of events and light this podcast and everything else that goes around with you know, all the hard work you did over the years kind of fostering the London MCP community, and this podcast is the thing that Norbook complains about the least.

So you'll do it a really good job.

Everyone who's being a Patreon you're read encouraging us.

Thank you so much.

It means a lot it's nice to hear all, but just not my own twenty four seven.

Yep, yep, it's it's great.

It's grateful for that one hour, one hour a day that I do this with you hour and a half.

Yeh, all right, let us enough of the banter, too much pater, too much banter that just enough of that.

We're going to get into these this box.

So we did have in mind to do these boxes as they were coming out, and as it turns out, one of the two Web Warrior boxes of the new releases for this autumn.

It's it's been a bit of a spell.

We've had a lot of affiliation boxes coming out, though if you haven't heard of those yet, go back to them or they will be coming soon.

We've been doing kind of reviews of all the affiliation boxes that have been coming out, but as far as the new stuff, it's been a little bit of a desert.

But that's okay because there's a load of bit coming down the pike now.

So uh, I'm going to spoil this too.

Oh, wel on banter.

I literally finished painting the very last model in the Tire MCP range this past weekend.

Yes, everybody, literally everything including the two old sculps.

WHOA, that's actually impressive.

What I'm thank you.

I'm very impressed by that.

I'm very I'm very happy about it.

And it's just in the niked time.

I can say that because these foxes are and I rolling and all new toys coming in, you know.

So yeah, I'm in that club.

Is there a name for that club?

If you people know, like who has painted everything in the range, Like if you're in an army, you know, affiliation.

Surely you can collect all the gemstones.

You've done it, You're inevitable.

Okay, okay, baby, Yeah, I wonder if there's some sort of war gaming term for that that would be completely painted.

Yeah, fully painted.

It'd be nice like completionist.

You know.

There's the atomic mask games have like a little robot dude.

He's got a name, but they're like masks.

Oh yeah, you can.

You can wear him.

Yes, what's his name?

It's not Ammy or something like that.

A gunny gunny gun is a Gunammy now springy.

They had a name.

It's got a name, yeah, or is it Adam?

Is it just Adam Adam?

That'll be a good name for it for atomic masking.

Yeah, I think so anyway, it has like a little miniature that you can paint.

So you need to get out now to finish your collection.

That's true.

I don't have my I don't think is out yet, so but it's just been spoil so okay, right, let us get into this.

Okay, So for people to understand, there are two Web Warrior boxes coming out this autumn.

The first one apparently is going to be the one that has Silk Spider Ham and Spider Man Noir in it.

You can also look forward to the other box, which will be Prowler Spider Man twenty ninety nine and Ultimate Spider Man.

And keep in mind that they are putting out a Web Warrior's Affiliation box alongside this, so you have like three kind of things all at once.

That box has Spider Woman, Age of Venom, Black Cat and Amazing Spider Man, so loads loads if you're into Web Warriors, yeah, to get into and.

If you're not into web Wars, now it's the perfect time to get into him.

Yeah.

This is definitely post what WGC material for me.

Yeah to web so you can stop playing webs Uh yeah, you know I did.

And then Connor was on my team for Nations two years ago.

Yeah, and so I put them down and that's how I picked up X Men though.

X Men great.

Yeah, every time that you have some sort of woe.

In fact, this is actually my answer to everyone existing to this.

If you ever get sick of MCP dice, my advice is always going to be just play webs before we get into it.

But they're very not dice reliant, so they're a great team.

If you don't like rolling dice like me, and yeah I would.

I would agree they are.

They have a high learning curve though, but they have a very high ceiling as well, so definitely rewards you for putting their time into them.

Okay, finally, let's get into this first box, the first one in the in the panel.

It happens to be Spider Ham Alien's name.

It is so good, Peter Porker, nice, nice.

All right, here you go.

No, some trivia for you.

This can go down as my law segment.

What is the name of the green Goblin the equivalent in Spider Han's universe's arch nemesis.

Green Eggs, Green Eggs.

That's great.

Oh, that's pretty cool.

I didn't think about that.

No, I'll give you a here they're all animals in the Spider Hand universe.

Oh all right, Oh so that's the hint.

Okay, uh, it's Greek goblin.

But it's always close.

He's close people listening and me screaming, Green lizard.

Aha, it's close?

Is it that close?

Green toad?

It was green.

I'll give you another hint.

Hang on, is this how animals work?

I think he's a goose.

No, a turkey.

He's a turkey.

What why turkey?

It's the green gobbler.

Oh gobbler.

It's really valpful.

Oh my Laura.

And there's also there is cat in America in that universe as well.

So is this like a comic book?

I never understood this.

Yeah, it's yeah, it's like a it's a it's a universe, right, it's the Spotted verse.

But is it like something that they just do occasionally now and again, or is it like a running combook.

Yeah, he's got his own, you know, his own like comic books series, I guess.

Really.

So there are people out there busy collecting you know, alternate cover Spider Ham.

Yeah, you'll you'll collect single the MCP models, Right, everyone's got their own flavor and nerd.

Okay, cool, all right, but Peter Porker, that is fantastic.

And if you look at his picture by the great Patrick Brown, uh, not only does his mask have eyes and spider like he'd expect Spider Man, but then his flat nose has another spider face.

Come on, I'm going on.

Ah, oh, that's that's hard that it looks.

Like tiny to the model is tiny?

Saw it in person?

Remember Uk Gaines ex Poe.

Yeah I did.

I didn't look at it that closely.

It was free to maybe.

All right, you go for.

I'm going to quickly just drop in every now and then a new character from this universe.

Yeah, there's an ant.

Okay, they laughed.

They've phoned that one in a I thought that was quite a good one.

You keep going, I'll see, I'll find the good ones.

They should have called them adam Ant.

That would have been more fun.

An Yeah, I got before we get that, sorry, before we get angry Spider hand fans in our discord.

It's actually Captain americat America, not Captain America.

Oh okay, is that is that chet GPT steering you down the wrong path?

What happened there?

I'm on the Marvel fandom wiki.

Okay, all right, Spider hand Peter Porker.

Uh oh, wait a minute, jem, we do we have a box number for this?

Do we know what's going to be?

Oh my god, are we free?

We we we might have overlooked that, and that would be bad, real bad people.

They have a box CP one seven zero a very even number, one seven zero one, very good.

What do you do?

You read anything into that?

But I have found another character from his universe, Nikeno.

He's a horse, right, of course, he's so God.

Think of all the acid that was dropped in these sessions, think of it amazing.

So I think the speed of Spider Ham is infecting us because we're too giddy in this show and it's a serious game.

But it's Spider.

Yeah.

Okay, so let's look at this bad boy.

He is two threat and this is a big deal.

Usually would be considered a big deal.

A web warry of people love two threats.

But we'll get into in a moment.

It's a two threat character.

He has got a stat line of two physical, two energy and two mystic, and he's got three health and on both sides three and three.

Uh, he's only size one.

Interestingly, but he moves medium.

So how does this compare to other tooth threats?

Well, first off, should we talk about the factor of the too threat yeacause?

Okay, yeah, Why did I say that's important for web Warriors?

Well, I mean web brows are usually let's talk about under Mars Morales web warriors, right, their game plan is to go as wide as possible, survive forever, and to score all the points.

And they are the best team in the game at doing that.

They always have been they probably always will be because they're just under that cusp of like they're not quite broken.

They're not like hell fire.

They don't receive complaints, but they are very, very very strong.

They're probably the perfect example of what like the upper limit of a team will be in MCP.

So going super wide is really good for them, and they usually take like Toad and Wong two tooth threats to be able to do that.

Toads obviously incredible scoring points, and Woe is great for letting other like spiders kind of achieve their thing.

But getting an affiliated too threat, I don't think any of us, not even connor local webers, they saw that coming.

There was there was jokes of you know, Spider Hans should probably be a two threat in the kind of lead up after they announced that he was coming and no one was like, no, there's no way that's happening.

But also, this is the first too threat since well years right, the last two threat was honey Badger, Oh wow, which I think was just after I started playing.

So this is, yeah, very rare.

And that's because two threats innately just have you know, a hard to balance you know, I guess power because they have two actions like everybody else, and especially when they can score points.

You've got like a honey Badger who can't score points and Nebula who can't score points, but they make up for it in other ways.

Having a twoth threat that can score points is very very powerful.

So yeah, we were all a little bit scared to see that Spider Hand was a two threat.

Yeah.

You know what, It's so funny do you say that about the two threats because they've been changed so much.

I consider them new and I keep using them as new.

But you're right, this is the first actual new one.

Yeah, it's just they hasn't the other ones have been changes.

Okay, Yeah, very good explanation.

Thank you for all that.

It's the affiliated part of it, excuse me, that really makes up a lot of it.

But he is rather weak on that.

Threats are stat line, most of the two threats have four health on each side, and they'll typically have three defense stace.

Maybe one instance they'll have a two, but the other ones will be threes.

So so yeah, he's look, let me look at rocket.

I was just going to rocket.

Okay, Rocket even as two two three with three health on one side and three health on the other side.

He's also size one.

He's the only other character that's size one.

Yeah, and that size one comes with some interesting rules interactions.

Right, So a size two in MCP is usually like a car, and it basically means that you can get a rocket or spider Ham can stand behind that car, and because the car is bigger than them, because they're size one, the only size one characters in the game, opponents can't see them over the car, but they can see them because of how MCP works, because if they're like size two or three, it means they're as big or bigger than the car and they can see them.

So it means they can get into real tricky spots.

Basically, if you're a And yeah, it's a bit more relevant for Rocket because he has a range five gun, right, so he can stand behind a car he's basically invisible, but can shoot over the car spider hand less.

So we'll get into that.

But yeah, he's not so gunny as Rocket, which makes sense.

Okay, yep, and he still gets covered from size one pieces of drain.

Oh good point.

Yeah, you know, which is not the greatest considering his health and stat line is terrible as it is.

But yeah, so okay, so this is not so terribly unusual for the smaller sized twos, but he does threat tos, but for a threat to it's still a little bit worse.

But let's see if he's got stuff to make up for it.

What do you say?

Yeah, okay, here we go.

We're gonna go right into it.

Uh and these names are gonna keep making me giddy.

Sorry, do you want to drop us an animal first?

Before we go?

I think I closed it.

I thought I got too many grounds.

Oh no, no, okay, those are groans of appreciated you carry on right.

The first he's got three attacks, all physical.

The first attack is porker hijinks porker hijinks is ranged two four dice.

It doesn't cost anything.

It is a gainer.

He gets one power after the attack is resolved, and then it's got a load of different types of triggers, so many triggers.

Remember he only has four dice base unless something specials help going on, only four dice.

But if these dice have the falling triggers, this is what happens.

If it's a wild the defender, the target will get a slow.

If there's a crit there, the defender will get stunned.

Now gets more complicated.

If there's a shield hit hit, he gets elusive.

So after the attack is resolved, the spider ham can advance short and if it's a crit hit hit, after the attack has resolved, he can push to the defender short.

So the wild thing about this is that those really complicated triggers they have the same root, so to speak.

They both have the two hits.

That doesn't matter whether you get a shield or KRIT.

If you do get that trigger, not only you're pushing the defender, but you're also stunning them, which is pretty pretty crazy.

That's a good price.

I didn't think about it doubling up.

Yeah, it doubles up, so that would be nasty.

So this is one of these instances where you know it's only ford ice.

You're not looking actually, if you're not looking to do much damage whatever whatsoever, it's I think you're just hoping for some of these triggers.

Yeah, for sure.

Can you count on any of these?

What are the chances?

Pretty low?

Yeah, I mean yeah, I don't do dice maths, but yes, I think you don't count any of these.

You just sort of throw it out and think maybe it will happen.

Maybe it's to get a power.

Maybe that's the most important thing about this.

Yeah, it's true.

Yeah, yeah, I think this is going to be the new You know how longever you go to an MCP event, everyone has somebody always per event, has a story about how long just like one shot somebody.

Yeah, I think this is going to be the new thing.

It's be like, oh god, you only want Spider handed, he got slow stan elusive and push on a guy.

So I think it's going to be the new thing that people talk about.

But yeah, I think, yeah, it's range two.

So if you're arranged too, he's probably already in trouble and just roll these dice and see what happens.

Don't rely on any of it because you will probably be disappointed.

Yeah, all right, so let's say it's to gain the power for porker hijinks.

Next one is here's pie in your face an animal first.

Oh yeah, go for it.

You got the animals.

Here's pie in your face.

Mysterio in Spider Hands universe is called moose stereo.

This is so good.

So it's so much acid.

Here's pie in your face again?

Is physical?

It is range four.

Okay, now we're talking range four four dice again, zero power, it's got one trigger, it's got a wild shock.

After the attack resolve it differently gains a shock condition.

Now this is interesting.

This is interesting because, like you were saying, he can hide, Range four is rather far.

Not range five obviously, but still rather far.

And okay, if you do a point of damage maybe two.

Great.

If you get to shock though, that's really nice.

Yeah, But mostly I think it's like he's holding a point and that's his real job, and this is just gravy that you know, he's thrown out these things hundred percent.

Yeah.

I think if you start your activation with Spider Ham sitting on a point and then just get two of these off from range four, preferably behind some size to cover.

I think that's kind of the dream, right, especially if you give out a couple of shocks.

You know, it's just quite a good annoying job for a two threat.

Now keep in mind he's in web Warriors, which means that they're going to have the all webbed up turn.

Oh yeah, right, and what does that give them?

And just look it up?

A two extra dates.

Two extra dice on all attacks if they have slow if the yeah, which is actually quite huge, and he sort of stops becoming a joke, wouldn't you look at it like that?

Yeah exactly.

Now he's throwing six dace and with serious triggers, Like those triggers are actually useful, it's just that they're hard to get.

But now suddenly he can do them.

Yeah, I think here's pining your face is really good.

Keep in mind Bullseye used to be you know, a two threat with range four, and he was a nuisance.

Yeah, exactly.

You don't gain power from them, but then I mean we'll go onto it.

He doesn't really need that much power, so it's fine, you know, Yeah, I think yeah, on an all web up turn.

You know, if you imagine wherebor is, they love playing on a on a big spread out map, right, whether it is harder for them to be chased by people giving out some slows with all webbed up is pretty pretty crazy.

And then if you're also making spider hands activation, then a bit more effective.

He's suddenly doing a couple of six dice attacks, you know with the you know he could stun, he could do some other stuff.

Push you around.

It's a size less push too, right, yeah, center on nerve yet again.

They had it cramming.

Yeah, sizelet's push any direction.

So suddenly, you know, hit hit on six dice is like, not that unlikely.

So yeah, during all webbed up he actually stops being funny and gets quite good.

Yeah yeah, so okay, uh maybe who knows crazy?

Yeah, crazy days, all right, let us carry on.

Then he's got one more attack.

It's a physical one again called Who's Who's Who's you calling a cartoon rage two six dice this time, but it costs four power and it's got an ability called outrageously oversized cartoon hammer ice, yes exactly, which is perfect.

After this attack has resolved, the defender has the shock and stun special conditions.

It gains the stagger a special condition.

So all of this is kind of like a joke character.

Yeah, and in the words like, if any of this all happens, it's meant to be hilarious.

Yeah, because it's not supposed to happen.

Yeah, exactly, And there's a very good chance that it just doesn't happen.

And that's kind of what the funny part is, I think, so, But the funny part is what happens.

You know that you're like living the dream because I don't.

I don't.

I'm taking trying to think.

I was just looking through the web Warriors cards.

I don't know of any other ways to kind of juice in this guy up, so that just look at my miles is his leadership though, leadership is you can roll a defense, die at the attack dice.

Hm.

Can you think of any other ways that you could juice this guy's dice?

I mean, I think all is kind of enough, right, And you know there are two threats out there that can hit right.

You've got bulls Eye, You've got Rocket mccoyer.

I guess doesn't quite count highly badger.

You know her attacks aren't too bad.

So you've got two threats out there that can hit this.

That's not spider hands.

Job.

I don't think you know.

The attacks aren't where it's at.

I think the next ability is where it's at.

Okay, let's let's get on to it then.

But oh, yes, what do you think the name of Kingpin is?

Oh, think about it now.

If you're a comic bit rrier, Okay, put the acid down your comic bit rier, and you need to turn Kingpin into an animal?

Which animal do you choose?

I'm some o thinking like a lion or a tiger.

Wow, that's because you're a Kingpin fan.

Did I get it?

It's a pig.

It's king pig, king pig.

That one feels like it, that one itself.

I think that's pretty fair, that one.

Oh man.

Okay, his first superpower actually yeah, his only active superpower is called web yoinc yoink.

It is a two threat.

Choose an enemy character within four okay, and roll a die on a qrit wilder hit result.

So that's half the time.

If the chosen character is three or us, push it towards this character shorts on any other result, push the character towards the chosen character short.

So you push yourself towards the target short.

Yeah, and he can only could be use once per turn, So half the time you're pulling the character towards you, half the time you're getting pulled towards it.

Yeah, which is again hilarious.

Sounds hilarious, right, And I thought, oh, this is a cute way of you know, giving some displacement with like a bit of a downside, and then out of you know, local web Borriers player Connor revealed that this is actually just good because you either pull the opponent off the point or you put yourself on.

The point for two power.

And if you put yourself on the point, you then have you know, potentially two chances at pork a hijinks to maybe get that push trigger and push them off anyway.

So actually it's great.

It sounds like a downside and it's not really.

It pushes you towards someone, and that's also fine because you're probably getting to that point as usual.

It's a matter of you trying to put yourself in a position to maximize the ability for yourself.

Yeah, exactly.

Instead of being a it's not a This character is clearly not a turn key tip characters.

It's not meant to be just like point and click.

Yeah, to think about how you're using them to get the most out of it.

Yeah for sure.

And you know this under Kingpin right where all characters count as two when they're securing.

This is great because it's just win win.

I'm going to pay two power and someone's going to score that point.

Yeah, probably me.

That counts two right, huh so, yeah, it's it's great.

I'm glad it can only be used ones Perturn.

Can you pull up the affiliation document while we're chatting because that has been already been updated.

I just want to double check that in any of these guys are affiliated other than web Warriors.

I don't think so, but yes, Okay.

Meanwhile, I'm going to go on to the next hilarious ability on this guy.

He's got an innate superpower called animation domination.

It's damage reduction one, basically unreal crazy damage reduction on a tooth threat with three hit points.

Let's go on.

I mean it makes sense from a cartoon point of view, but whether it kicks in enough to actually make a difference is the interesting guy.

It is quite cute.

It's done on a three health character because sometimes it just went that.

Yeah, it won't matter, but sometimes it will, and it'll be so aggravating as the attacker against this guy exactly.

Yea, all right, he's got another innate superpower called spider nonsense, which I think we've used in London a lot of times.

I'm talking about Web Warriors.

This sounds very British spider nonsense.

When this character is defending against a physical energy attack or making a dodge roll, it may reroll up to two of his defense or dodge dice.

Oh who spider nonsense.

Additionally, when this character suffers damage after the effects resolved, it drops any objective tokens it is holding.

Okay, so this is where we've we've seen this spoiled by the way in the way past.

This is where people give really sour on this guy, I find.

But let's talk about the fun stuff first.

Okay, he only has two dice that he's rolling for defense, but he gets to reroll on both yes and on the miles.

On the miles he gets three roll skulls, so he actually comes like a four full four right.

And with damaged reduction wide.

Yeah, it's a big deal.

Nonsense, He's going to be one of the he's going to be like Toad, just you know, obnoxious to try to kill sometimes.

I think so at times, yeah, And I think that him that last sentence there is what makes me completely happy with this character is that when I take any amount damage to drop the objective token and holding.

We've seen that we've learned from Toad.

You know, Toad being the prem the premiere to you threatet in the game years was recently fixed by letting him be the extract expert.

You know, he's still got his slippery he's still in threat from two, so he's still best in class for that, but he lost the pushes on his tongue lash, so he can't also score the secures.

And now I see spider Ham as the other mirror of that.

I think that he is the secure tooth threat right.

Right, that's really interesting.

The only tooth threat with displacement except Rocket, which doesn't really count because it's on his spender.

It's the only tooth threat with displacement, and he's rubbish at holding extracts, which I think is great and is really well balanced, and I think that makes me really happy that they've added They've gone back to the tooth threat.

You know, design space and love it and put this in.

Yeah, it's great.

You have to accept it, you know, these this is a tooth threat.

Whenever you're like complaining about something about the character, you have to remind yourself it's a tooth threat.

Now it's supposed to be that great, Yeah, exactly, and an affiliated tooth threat for where Bory is where Bori is early by the way, Okay, thank you so so Yeah, so going back to the example you gave earlier, this guy is hiding behind a car on a secure and holding him extract.

Somebody needs to pop him at a distance to just get to drop the objective at least, Yeah, the extract at least, you know, or else he's really too powerful.

Yeah, tooth threat exactly, And we should also talk about that is again remind yourself is a tooth threat because the act of going and you know, chasing him down and putting actions into him and spending power on getting the extract off this guy, that's value for a tooth threat.

Right.

Even if spider Ham you know, gets one shot twice, if he's taken a three or four threats activation to do that, he's done his job.

In my mind, right, And I mean maybe that's coming from I'm pretty biased because I play a lot of Honey Badger and her entire job is just to soak up actions, you know, so that it's not going to thrust your team.

And especially in a web Warrior's game plan, where you know you've got your MARDs and rollers, you've got Spectacus, Spider Man, a black Cat.

You want all of those guys to be surviving as long as possible.

And if Spider Ham is there being annoying and soaking up you know, one too many activations for a tooth threat.

You're just helping the rest of your team survive.

So yeah, I think again when you play him, yeah, he might be.

He will, he will be disappointed in some games, but he just remember he's a tooth threat and that's the value he's bringing.

Yeah, and you have to use him wisely as well.

He's his last superpower, as you can expect, is an eight one called wall Crawler.

So he goes everywhere.

So where can you see that?

So if it goes without saying, he's on a small base as well, thirty five millimeter base.

So where else do you see this guy working?

Right?

Yeah?

For sure for sure, because he counts for two.

You said already he's a pretty good secure holder, and he's got that range four again, which is what Bullseye was so good at.

Yeah, and now now he's only range three.

Yeah, exactly and rightly.

So I think we need to see this guy as a secure specialist, tooth threat secure specialist.

And yeah, I think that just goes anywhere that you want to help.

Oh hell, firen't thought about that.

Yeah, I see that working.

You know that healing me?

Imagine healing him.

That'd be annoying.

What two threats did you take in health and the New health Er?

I was always Toad, no question about it.

Unfortunately, maybe there's a world where you go super wide and you take Toad and Spider Ham and then you risk being unaffiliated.

So yeah, I don't know.

Yeah, I think he's he is squarely a web Borrier's character, that's for sure.

I know not all web Barrier players are a big fan of him.

I know that some still want to take Toad and one, which is fine because every other character in web Bords is you know, best in class, so they can afford to take some mon affiliated two threats.

You know, I wouldn't mind him in asguard though, yeah, because they are busy running around killing people, they ain't got time to sit on no secure points.

Yeah, and they're all very expensive, and so having a tooth threat that can sit on a point in the back and be reasonably safe maybe is it.

I think it would be good for as guarden.

I like it.

Yeah, used to run Toad in as guard just to kind it did be a tooth threat, right, just someone that gets four points, so similar thing, right, Yeah, I can see.

That big question of the taking a look at which crises you're taking and seeing if it's Toad or Spider Ham that could manage the the orientation of those secures better.

Yeah, for sure, there's a there's an argument for like any power leadership, so like Magneto Brotherhood or Xavier x Men, because if you can chuck them a power around one, it means he can double move, potentially pull someone off a point or you know what's your scenario, double move and then pull himself onto a point.

If the webuanker doesn't go very well, that's kind of fine, you know.

In humans tooth thread Yeah, but I mean Toad still exists.

That's the big problem, right, Well, It all comes down to a question of do you want to hold secures or do you want to run around with extracts?

You know what I mean?

In humans doesn't need to run around.

I mean they they take the extracts anyway.

They don't need toad for that.

Yea, So maybe they need a secure sitter somewhere true.

Yeah.

No.

And also this is kind of going back to criminals again, but playing in him Michelle and Daredevil, he gets to reroll his dice, so you could maybe get those triggers because yeah, do you want to go trigger hunting?

This is a great trigger hunting character.

I mean Steve three Avengers, right, that will make the displacement a lot more you know likely.

Yeah, yeah, if you love hunting triggers, this is the character for you.

I'm sure people unlock us better than we will this hot take episode.

Don't know a character from his universe?

Yeah, yeah's wrap it up, all right.

Kang the Conqueror Is Kangaroo the Conqueror?

Oh that one I had in my head?

Yeah, all right, that's the last one.

This one I'm going to try and guess.

But you don't spend too long on it because it's pretty out there Mary Mary Jane Watson.

Peter Parker's girlfriend.

Yeah, Watson, this is a real stretch.

This is like we wrote it and m jay and no clue Mary.

Jane water Buffalo.

Uh, no fact what.

It's just because the w told you a stretch that was okay, those are going because he comes with a Tectus card swiftly quartaham courtenaham.

Now does that make sense to you?

I never heard that expression.

I don't know.

Maybe it's that corner jam.

Yes, maybe all right.

It's an unaffiliated card that's active, so he can take it wherever he goes.

Uh.

During his activation, he can spend two power to play his card for each enemy character.

Oh sorry, let me just quickly go back to remember he said.

We said he's got one gainer, which is the Polka hyjenk range two Porker hijinks.

If he does that twice in a turn, then he could turn on his web youyink, which is well, actually you only have to do one, right because you get power one in the power phase, presumably, so that webulank should be online quite often, it's my point.

Yeah, or he'll have power to spend on this card.

That's what triggered my thought, so two power to play this card for each enemy character within three a spider Ham.

When the card is played, roll one die and resolve the corresponding effect below.

Completely resolve each effect in the order of you're choosing you from moving on to the next.

Okay, so it's one of these fun cards like Guardians Has.

What could happen If the result is a while you do porker popper, the enemy character gains a shock special condition Okay.

If it is a crit you get is that a cartoon pig?

And then you get stunned?

Okay, this sounds like his attacks basically so far.

If you get a shield, you get slopped up.

The enemy gains the slow condition.

Yeah.

And then if it's a hit, it'll be a corny joke and the enemy loses one power.

And lastly, if it's a skull, oh no, the opposing player places spay him within two of his current positions.

Okay, so it's basically he gets another one of his tacks, but more guarantees on the triggers in some senses.

Yeah, it's interesting that it says three genemy character in three when this card is played, So if you get the ono trigger.

It doesn't then change the targets of the card.

No, it's good.

That's that's a plus for it.

Yeah, yeah, I mean yeah, you're giving out shock stan or slow or they lose a power or on a blank nothing happens.

This is fun, but I don't think you play this right.

Yeah, especially if you wear Warriors where they have such good cars as it is.

Yeah, maybe if you take them in and splash somewhere else where their cars are not as important.

But these days cards are really tight.

So yeah, don't get me wrong.

Giving out like a stun or a slow at the right time on the right person is pretty huge.

But he can get those off on his attacks, right, So just try that instead.

Yeah, okay, yeah, I agree, fun though, Yeah, oh for sure.

And thematic is the heck yeah okay, next card up, Spider Man Noir.

I hope you read this in Nicolas Cage's voice always, Oh, dear.

Lo, you I meant in your head.

Okay, thank god, I read this card in his voice.

Thank god.

I'm going to say he stretches the element to me.

He is on a small base thirty five millimeter base, and it's only affiliateds web barriers as well, thank you.

His alter ego is Peter Parker Earth nine zero two one four.

Is that a Can you look up the zip code nine zero two one four in the United States and see if that exists?

Because there's nine oh two one oh which is that show from Bevere.

All I'm getting for nine zero two one four is it's Marvel Noir, So I think the universe is from is All Noir?

So it's all right, But did you type zip code in is in the search?

It's to say, no, yeah, tape that Okay, this is where you grew up?

Is what make you make me?

Now?

This is on the Those numbers are for the Californian side of the country's Los Angeles County, California, see Beverly Hill.

No, it makes sense.

Spider Noir.

He's like, you know one of those detectives those you know, the noir detective film that would be set in someplace like Los Angeles.

There you go, there you go, look at me.

I'm going to be the lord master on this show.

Please take it and please take off, all right, Okay, Peter Parker Earth nine two one four, which is I guess say Big Earth of just Los Angeles.

Wow, let's see his stat line.

Well, first of all, he's a three threat.

He has got three physical, three energy, three mystic defense.

He's got five hit points on both sides.

He signed two and he moves medium.

So standard three threat stats.

Yeah, very standard.

Okay, uh yeah, five and five on each side, so no spicy six hit points at any point.

But for web Warriors, I think that's pretty normal.

Okay, So nothing else to say about this.

This is pretty standard Web Warriors.

All right.

Let's look get his attacks.

Then he's got two tacks, both physical.

The first one is called the the old one two.

It's range three four dice, no power.

It is a builder.

He gets power equal to the damaged delt.

If this character already has a tack the defender during the during its activation this turn, it adds three dice to this attack role.

That's good.

So that would mean seven dice.

That's really good.

And he's got a trigger on it, which is a hit wild called elusive.

After this attack has resolved, this character may advance short.

Yeah I'm gonna say, I'm going to jump ahead to see if there's any No, he doesn't have any other dice fixing.

No, I mean a full full full of by seven is pretty good.

Yeah, keep in mind zero this is a zero coross attack and it's ranged three, so it's likely.

Yeah, it's pretty good.

And also, like you know, you've got Miles Marlanis, who's a three threat web barrier who would needs a web swing to get out to seven dice.

So that's quite nice.

And it's very stomatic as well, the old one too, you know.

And I love the idea of Elusive because what I'm seeing is like an old like you know, ah, she stuck them up.

She and they're kind of like shaking their fists at each other, and he punched them once.

And then the Elusive is him kind of like rotating round, you know what I mean.

I can kind of see it.

He's brawling.

It's great.

Yeah, and I think it's a really cool thematic attack.

Okay.

And then his other attack is called crime Fighting Arsenal.

It is beam four five dice costs three.

That sounds really reasonable so far.

And then after each attack has resolved, if it dealt damage, the defender gains slow and shock, oh gosh, that's really good.

Yeah, yeah, that's huge.

I mean, we've not seen many web barriers give out slow before, right, it's been super rare apart from you know, amazing Spider Man's leadership.

And I think it's terrifying because, like I said before.

They want to be on a big, wide, open, secure where everything's far away from each other, and if you give out slow, that means it's way harder for you to think or chase their extract holders.

So this is terrifying, and you know, spoilers, there's more of it coming with Silk as well.

I'm really worried about web Broer is giving out slow now.

I think this is super strong.

Yeah, and again I was always going to be leaning on this a little bit.

If you do all webbed up, you know, usually those those characters that get slowed are klind of clustered together.

So there's a good chance that this guy is going to be able to find a nice beam on those slowed once and now he's rolling seven days Yeah on this attack.

Yeah, exactly.

And all webbed Up is usually played on like around three, when you've grabbed all the extracts and the Webroers just need to run away now, and then that's their big all web up turn, and that's where they're going to close the game out as kind of the way to play it.

So yeah, all Web that turn followed by a crime fighting arsenal, you're probably going to just slow everyone and also shock, which is huge because then if they do catch up with you, they're not hitting you as hard.

It's just that this is like the perfect combination of conditions for a Web Warriors, you know, run away with points kind of tactics.

It really is two to observation.

Actually, that's exactly right.

This is exactly what they want.

You pay me the big bucks.

Cool.

Let's get into his act of superpower called hit the Pavement.

It's two threat, sorry, two threat to power.

Choose an interactive terrain feature of two power or god, I am a little gree let us start over it.

Hit the Pavement costs two power.

Choose a terrain feature of size two or less within three that's good, and throw it medium.

That's really good.

It can only be used ones per turn.

Well, just a really good throw.

Yeah, it's great.

I love Storms Throw, which is similar to this.

Storms cost three, but that's because they can throw characters and this only throws terrain, but it throws a medium.

So yeah, this is great.

I think your normal.

Time with him is going to be the all one two, So four dice, then seven dice and then throw a size two of them.

That's like a good amount of damage output, right for a three threat.

Yeah, but I also think it's the range three of this terrain throw that's really good.

The range two ones really limit you sometimes.

Yeah, I don't know.

I've been playing a lot of Phoenix and terrain is never within range two of you.

Rains three terrain is fantastic.

Storm loves it.

It's the best part of Storms Kit.

It's being able to grab the rain from brains three away.

Does anybody have range four for picking up terrain space maar?

I think I think Magneto and Cable will those guys.

I think they're arrange three.

Yeah, I don't know if anybody has range four.

Yeah, you pick within three and you throw it a long which is what That's how they that's how they show their power for that.

Yeah.

Yeah, range three Arrange three pick up is fantastic.

Okay.

He's got a reactive superpower called inured to Pain.

This is red it is it is one power.

If this character with self damage, you can use the superpower and reduce the damage suffered.

By one, no limitation.

This is bat ray Bill, no no limit, Yeah, bat ray Bill.

It's Kingpin, right, Kingpin.

Yeah, yeah, it's the big one.

It's the real powerful one.

Wow.

And obviously we are kind of judging most of these characters by playing on De Mars Morales.

So you're rolling three defense dice.

You're then using spider sense, which we'll get to h so, you know, rerolling skulls and then and then if damage goes through, you just pay one and reduce it to zero.

Ye.

Yeah, it's so good.

Yeah, let's do that.

So Eter sense is innate superpower like many web barriers have where he basically gets to re roll two of his dice when defending against a physical or energy tech or making a dodge roll man, you know.

And finally, let's just say he's got wallcroller.

As you can expect, it stocks up on mystic attacks.

Hey yeah yeah, I mean mistic attacks have always been the best answer to where Borrier is right.

So yeah, more of that coming in and anymore not letting the guy reduced damage would be good.

Yeah, let's be careful because sometimes that still works.

I forget how no is he No?

I think it's just fine, yeah, stop this from being reduced.

Yeah, yeah, it's a big deal.

I think.

Yeah, the three three three five health we sort of said was no normal for a three three, I think that goes way further when you account for spider sense and in yours pain.

I think this guy is actually tanky.

Yeah, I agree.

Yeah, this guy's really especially if he's already shocked you.

Yeah.

Yeah, you know this guy isn't gonna die easily.

Yeah, very very strong.

So what's his job in the web Warrior universe here?

It's his job.

It's a good question because there's no displacement here, right, Nope, none of which.

Now he's a brawler, love, Yeah, he's a brawler, So I don't know.

Maybe he's an extract holder, you know, because he can reduce damage.

Yeah, I'm not sure.

He definitely has a fantastic all web up turn right, Yeah, but I think maybe he takes the old moon Night's job.

Remember Peop used to run moon Night in website That's right, Yes, Like I've got this one character that can just you know, absolutely destroy something on all web dot turn.

Maybe he's a little bit of that while also being tanky.

And you know, I think that this is an extract chaser in Where Warriors.

So you send him off to go grab someone with an extract, you know, you do give them the old one too, You throw them, you get their extract, and you run away and just keep reducing damage.

I think that's the play.

But you know, is he the best in Weeb Warriors at doing that?

No?

Right, that's a good question.

I'm going to call up the affiliation document.

Yeah, and oh, we forgot to mention our co lab while I look it up once you mentioned the co lab.

Oh, the co lab?

Yeah, which one's been with Jervis's protocol Jarvis protocol.

Oh you mean on the character pages.

Yeah, there's a lot of co labs going on across the Biross HQ at the moment.

Yeah.

Now, if you if we've if we've done an episode on a character and you're checking them out on Jarvis Protocol, you can scroll down and you'll see a little link to our episode there.

Cool.

Right, So yeah, for example, I guess this one, Yeah, this one should have a link underneath taking the person who's looking at the card on Jervis's Protocol right to this episode.

Which, if you're listening to this episode is completely useless to you.

That's a future reference if you look at a character on Jarvis.

Our goal, our goal, maybe it's my goal.

My goal is to convince more but that we should do an episode on every single character in the game, so that every single page links to an episode of ours.

When okay that, yeah, all right, maybe you just pindle the characters.

How hard is episode?

You know?

Yeah, he's on the hard part, have I Okay?

Yeah, it's really it's really great that he has that there.

And he did some numbers Hugo from the Dracaine who runs Jervis Protcole, and the numbers significantly jumped when he had added those links to the pages.

So it definitely seems to be a tool that people are appreciating.

So if you haven't, if you're not aware of it, take a look and tell your friends, tell your friends.

Okay, I'm tooking a look at it.

I mean, I'm looking at the Web Warriors roster here.

I mean, like Agent Venom was also kind of tanky, I suppose.

Yeah, there's also Gwenham who's like a bit of a brawler.

Yes, And there's been a lot of a lot of chatter, you know, with these new Ever since these new Where Warrior boxes were announced, there's been a lot of people talking, are we going to get like a punchy Webs You know that we've got We've nailed the runaway with points Webs.

You know they're incredible.

Are we going to get like a new leadership or some new characters?

And I think maybe this is hinting towards that, right, if you do want to play a punchee Webs, Spider Man Noir is going to be fantastic.

There, Agent Venom is gonna be great.

Gwenham is going to be fantastic.

I'm playing Gwenham and X Men at the moment.

Actually she's great.

Maybe that you're Maybe you're right, dude, Maybe this is like we shouldn't be thinking about old webs.

This is a different way to play a web.

Yeah.

Well yeah, I mean this episode goes very out of date very quick.

If the next box they announce has like a new leadership in right, that's all about being people up.

Mm hm.

So yeah, this is because I'm looking there's all kinds of characters that you don't see in a usual Web Warriors build, and maybe all of them together then suddenly form another type of group.

We know that there's another affiliation.

They're keeping KOI about it, but we're thinking that there's going to be another tactics card like leadership coming their way.

Yeah, not another affiliation, another Sorry, that's what I meant that.

Yeah, there's a card that they've they're teasing called Spider Man, right, which might be another affiliation.

Yes, so maybe there's another leadership that's coming that makes them a bit punchier.

I can't imagine them being, you know, the punchiest team in the game, because they are best in class, you know, being defensive and running away.

But it will give you another style of play, and maybe that's where Spider Man Noah fits, you know.

Yeah, exactly.

Okay, let's move on to his card.

He comes with a tactics card.

It's also unaffiliated.

It takes where he goes, but this time it's reactive during the first power phase.

Oh okay, I didn't say the name.

It's got a really cool name.

Oh sorry, Spider Sleuth.

Oh does that is great?

Spiders?

All right, so you have to play it is basically right the beginning of the game.

All right, this is like, what's what's some common ones that are the beginning at the game, leadership calls cat and Mouse.

Yes, one the X Men one?

What is of first class?

Yeah, this is one of them.

It seems like when it's played, set it near the battlefield instead of discarding it.

Okay, uh oh, and it's got different kind of thematic titles.

Is called gathering evidence.

If this card has been played when an enemy character within three of an allied non days Spider Man Noir interacts with an objective token, put one evidence token on this card.

Okay, so basically you this is great.

It's like having a little mini mystery game making little side quest going on.

Yeah, side quest, thank you.

So so it basically somebody interacts with the objective token that's either right secure or extract exactly.

Okay, So whatever they're messing about with the the crisis, basically within three of them, he notices and he puts a little evidence to you know what.

It might also be here's here's a niche niche rule for the podcast and maybe look, I think okay, yes, this will also count for things like dossier.

Oh is it called there's a WEBONEX card where you put an objective token down and you have to interact with it.

And that would that would give him some evidence.

There you go, okay, niche interaction done, no wow, webonex nerve.

The next one is called asking questions.

If this card has been played, when an Allied Spider Man Noir Dazes or Chao's enemy character put one confession token on this card, Okay, nice, he's given me a one two.

It's got out of them, okay, And then finally he can crack the case.

Crack the case is during the clean any cleanup phase.

If this card has been played, and if an Allied Spider Man Noir is not Daised or Chao, you may remove three evidence tokens and one confession token for this card.

And if you do, you are too VP and huge.

Whoa, that is huge Actually all that stuff we were saying about.

I'm not sure what his game plan is.

I think this might be his game plan.

I think this gives him his own little game plan.

Scoring scoring two vps in web Borrowers is insane.

Right, And it's not that hard.

He could do this himself.

He doesn't have to have his hardest part here.

He has to stay three non days.

Yeah, he has to stay within three and it's been non days, so I think this only really works on paid to flips, right, really well, that is in like, it works best on paid flips because there's lots of.

Because he has to keep flipping, because you interact more often.

Yeah, but okay, there's some secures that you know, you you get healing ability, right, intrusions, that's a good point.

Actually, yeah, but you're right, you're right, but I mean mid Ma is yeah, his paid flips is like, this is really really strong.

And also, like all the best web borwers players that we've played against, right, they know they know how many vps are of every single round, Right, they know exactly how they can win, how they can get to sixteen before anyone else.

That's their whole game plan.

This gives them two bonus vps in the middle of that.

I think this is going to upset a lot of people in terms of like you'll be playing a web Browers guy and then all of a sudden he's cracked the case.

Spider Man, Noirs crack the case, and they've gone to sixteen way quicker than you realized.

Yeah, I think this is super strong and yeah, really really fun.

Also super thematic, Right, I want to see more cars like this.

This is amazing.

Also, this does help them in that they never like to play paida flips right, Yes, in general.

Yeah, Spider where Bory power economy is very tight and very exact, and it's one of their strengths.

But as soon as you add Paia Flips in there, it can get a little bit squiffy.

So yeah, this this helps them there a little bit, which I think is great.

I agree, so nicely balanced.

This is so great so far.

Yeah, I love this.

It's all really good.

It's also unaffiliated, and I'm going to try this in X Men because I play Paider Flips all the time.

Yes, you're going to put him on a flank with like X twenty three and get X oney three to soften someone up so that he can come in and give me ALL one two and ask some questions and then hopefully get a confession token.

I love that.

It's really good and anything along those lines as because yeah, like you said, he's got to self contained little mini quest that he's doing, so he could be splashed anywhere and still do this.

Yeah, it's great.

Is there a world where we see Spider Man, Noir and Killmonger on the same team.

Oh Man, we get the two words that you set up the throne for two vps and spirally for two vps.

It's pretty fun.

Oh man, I was saying.

Actually, Spider Man Noir, his his builder likes m Buck Who's leadership, right, because it helps him get the trigger.

Okay, maybe that's something to try.

A lot of people playing in Buck at the moment.

Spider Ma Noir and they get more elusives off and then you know, team him up with Killmonger.

That's four VP right there for free, but basically nothing except all of those triggers he has to hit.

Terror Genesis and Spider Man Noir.

Oh yeah, oh.

Yeah, let's not think about Genesis anymore because I can't think about my card any will do?

Okay.

Last character in the box is Silk, also known as Sydney Moon.

Sidney Moon.

I'll double check, but I'm gonna gather that she is on a small base.

Oh she's not in the box yet.

Where's the can you small base?

Yeah?

Okay, right, she's in a small base and she is a fourth thread.

Okay, so this is a fourth threat.

So we have a two to three and a fourth threat.

Now.

Her stats are four physical defense, three energy, three mystic.

She's got six health on the hunt side, five on the backside, size two, but moves long, So I think this is classic.

Uh four so you know threat four stats apart from it being long, except that she is a web warrior, so it's it's you know, that's not unusual, that unusual.

By the way, she also just Weber are affiliated?

Yes, just Whebe is okay cool?

Do you wanna know some law?

Oh?

Yeah, please.

So Cindy was also bitten by a radio actor or the same radioactive spider that Peter Parker, so they're they're very similar powers.

But her thing, her webs come out of her fingertips.

Oh wow, okay, yeah, a little creepy.

Yeah.

She is faster than Peter Parker.

Well, and but he's stronger and her spider sense is called silk sense and is far better than Peter's.

Huh there you go.

Okay, all right, this is helpful, Laura Master Jay, it's gonna probably let's see this car and that reflects that.

Okay, three attacks again, she's got all physical.

First one is called spider strike.

It is ranged three five dice, doesn't cost anything, and it is her builder gains power equal to the damaged delt and it's got a wild push.

If it's size two or less, this character may push it short.

Well, this seems pretty webory normal yes, normal, Yeah.

Directionless push.

Oh yeah that pushes size twos.

But yeah, pretty pretty great.

Only a wild trigger this is great.

Yep, nothing to play in their range three.

Everything's all good and pretty typical for web warriors.

I don't know if a lot of their pushes is away or directionless, but directionless is super powerful, so yeah, this is definitely better.

Okay.

The next one, yes, fingertip spinnerets nice one, This is a beam.

Three okay, five dice again same no, no dice penalty.

Despite it being a beam, doesn't cost anything.

It's also a gainer.

Yikes.

Remember you get one power for each target under that beam also has a wild trigger called slow more web or is giving out slow that is terrifying.

Yeah, and the last one is called the spectacular Spinning Jenny Area two attack seven days costs five though.

Yeah, yes, let's see if it's worth it.

After each attack has resolved, the defender has pushed towards this character short.

After all attacks generated by this attack have been resolved, placed this character within three of itself.

Ah, so you can move everybody into you and then you could get out of dodge.

Basically so cool.

It's so cool.

I love this.

I love the like movement tricks in this attack.

It feels really a thematic and like very well borried to be like wait, everyone's here, now you're there, and now I'm over here, and yeah, it's great.

Five costs is a lot, but it's guaranteed push sizeless right, which is huge.

Yep, slammer in the middle of a bunch of sentinels.

They're all going to pushed around.

And then after Yeah, everything's guaranteed.

It's all guarantees, basically guaranteed phrames, three players guaranteed push on everyone involved.

This is well worth of power, you think, so, yeah, that was going to debate you on that power.

It's very great.

I think the thing is as well.

She's a lot mover, so you can move pretty easily to the sweet spot where you get the most amount of people in an area too.

Here yeah, and then webswing onto a point afterwards.

I think you do.

You have to do this at the end of the round, right, once you can see where everyone's activated and standing still then you jump in and do this, but I think it's definitely worth the power.

But what what is it for?

Like, why are you doing this?

Oh?

The displacement.

Imagine this on a mere Fisk wedding party.

You just move in, push everyone off, and then you webspring on to the point you scored two VP, right and your opponent's gone down to VP.

I think it's great.

Okay, hmm okay, yeah, I guess it's a niche, but they're it'll be real.

Yeah.

I don't think you do this very often.

I think this is like a once per game thing, and only on certain secures as well, right, because she could just spider strike and push them off with a wild you know, and gain some power in the process.

So yeah, I mean, but again, webros don't like relying on dice and spectacular spinning, Jenny, I don't think.

I don't.

I wouldn't be surprised if you see that being used one person just to guarantee you push.

Yeah, yeah for sure.

So yeah, if you need to a clutch moment, yeah, siresless and diceless displacement for five power, you know, and with that bean fingertips, spinnerets, the beams.

Really, she's gonna generate power really easily.

Yeah, she's gonna loads.

Oh that's a good point.

She'll just have loads of power on her own.

Yeah, okay, all right.

Superpower.

She's got one reactive one called caught in the Web.

It costs two power.

When an enemy character ends a movement within three of this character, this character used the superpower.

You roll four dice.

The enemy character suffers one damage for each crit and wild Rold.

Then if this superpower dealt one or more damage, this character may advance short.

Ah, so this is like the usual, like trans Ema one has this kind of thing counter strike sort of tricks and traps or tricks and Traps even Okay, but does tricks and Traps give you that short bit?

Or is that novel?

Yeah?

Yeah, that's the mysterious thing?

Right they end a movie with kay Rolson.

Dice if you do an amage, you can advance.

Yeah, yes, yes, of course you're right.

Okay, interesting, how is she using this then?

I mean, this is the this is the web boro is keep away thing, right, Someone's chasing someone's chasing you.

They get close, you just use that and hopefully move away.

I've also realized this is a bit This is a bit niche.

But if you're from deployment, if you're deployed opposite a midline secure, you can move once and be within range three of the midpoint, use a spider strike.

If you get the wild, you can push them towards you.

So you have to do a damage and and get a wild.

So a bit niche.

You can push them towards you, which will then trigger caught in a web yep, and you can then pay two to then hopefully move short onto the point you just pushed them off.

Yeah, yeah, it's cute.

In weborow Is they have loads of other ways of doing that much more reliably.

But that's kind of cool.

It could happen.

Yeah, it is wrapped up four dice is not very many dice, but it could happen.

I suppose you're desperate.

But yeah, when any character ends a movement, remember obviously that can be triggered by you if you're it's also a movement is anything, right, it's a move action a place, it's a throw it.

So yeah, people build I mean archie cable right, our local tricks and traps, you know, aficionado they build holdless around this because you can do things like if someone's holding a spider infected and they get advanced, that triggers all this as well.

So there's lots of niche interactions with this, And yeah, if you're into like, you know, Gotcha's, if you like playing Blue and Magic the gathern, then this is your.

Kind of thing.

Oh gosh, okay, that was a really good Magic the Gathering joke that you didn't get.

She's got innate super power called silk sense.

I think this gets out to what you were alluding to when you're a low master's still when this character is defending against attack or making a dodge roll.

Oh so this is again against mystic too, Oh my god, it is.

Yes, she can reroll up to two of the defense or dodge dice including skull results.

Nice, it's got the miles of leadership baked in, baked in and good against mystic.

Oh.

I think this may are of like often taken character.

Then yeah, I think it's pretty great.

I think it's nice again, you know, kind of going with our tim fall hats on, right, with the conspiracy that we might start seeing a different leadership in more Borrier's.

This kind of hints towards that some more right, because she doesn't need to be in Miles Morales leadership to reroll host goals.

And yeah, being four three three with twos, she's basically six five five right basically all the time.

Wow, Yeah that's tanky.

Yeah, really good.

One more innate superpower Web of the Bride.

When an enemy character with the slow special condition ends the movement within three of this character, this character gains a power.

Oh, I think you're right.

She's going to be flowing with power.

Yeah, for sure, and then that gain the gainer beam right, is going to really help with that giving out slows while also gaining power.

And then if they're moving near, you're going to gain more power.

So yeah, it's just yeah, she's going to be completely drenched in power.

Good luck remembering that Web the Bride thing though, because we haven't seen anything like that before.

I know I would struggle to remember that.

But yeah, I mean we said before that like we'd be super well.

I said before, I'm terrified of Web Borri is giving out slow and this character is all about that and then gains power for it.

So yeah, scary stuff cool.

And the last bit is she's got walk crawler, which you can imagine.

Yeah, all right, so I want to keep in mind that that she's a fourth threat, so how and you know, traditionally, again we're being traditional about web Warrior's affiliation.

They like three threats and two threats only?

Did you go as wide as possible?

Yeah, so let's talk about how does a fourth threat help?

But you know, how does that work maybe in the new version of word war is that we're considering really the old version and what four threats they already use?

Yeah, I mean, I'm no web borri is pro right, I'm a big fan of Scarlett Spider and really can't wait to play webs so I can stop playing him.

But normally people seem to agree with me on that, so you're probably the wrong berzon to.

But there's also like, you know, why take a full threat when you can just take two two threats in web barriers.

So yeah, it's tricky to say.

I mean, the Miles Morales led web broriors has kind of been solved for a few years, right, Everyone kind of plays the same thing and if you deviate from it, you tend to regret it.

So maybe this is something for like the new web broriors.

But then that being said, giving up slow is a big deal, right, I keep going, keep going about it, but it's a big deal.

Yeah.

Yeah, So do you see her?

So I just see her being good.

But I mean, like I said, she's she can, she's very mobile, she's very tanky, especially against their their weakness mystic.

She seems like she's gonna have a ton of power to be able to do this big attackers to push people around.

Yeah, I don't know.

I think she tacks war to the court in the web, does damage.

Yeah.

Yeah, I think we're going to see her splashed in other places for sure.

I don't know where specifically, but I think we will.

Let you say, she's just a good character all round, right, yeah, and she has attacked its card so yeah.

Mm hmmm, oh yeah, we'll come to that.

I'm just I'm just desperately looking at where would I splash her?

Like what is she trying to do?

Is?

Actually, now you've got me thinking about how fire is actually a good idea, you know, because she spends power really well.

Right, that spender is good and giving out slow helps you run away with points and caught in a web can be game winning, right, if someone's coming after you, you could you could do that and get away.

So yeah, I think she's a point scoring four threat.

She's similar to Spider Woman, right, very similar stats.

But yes, yes, very good.

The Spider Woman has that steal, the extract steal, so I think, yes, Spider Woman doesn't displace anyone, but does steal, extracts and score VP from interrogate, whereas Silk displaces people and gives us slow.

So they're both doing different jobs but very similar stat lines.

Interesting.

I'm really perplexed by a lot of these characters, and I say that in a good way.

I think that's really changing things over Word Warriors, which is fantastic.

Right, let's wrap up with her card.

It's called Spider Totem the Bride.

Why do they keep going on about the bride?

What's the bride stuff?

I'm gonna find out.

You read the call Lord Master Jay, you get into that, and it's this is another unaffiliated reactive card.

She takes it wherever she goes.

During the power phase, Silk may spend two power to play this card, so she very likely will have that two power, so that doesn't seem to be a problem until the next cleanup phase.

So basically for the whole round.

When Silk targets an enemy attack with sorry enemy character with an attack, she may change the attack type to mystic.

This is like old school Doc Strange one leadership.

Yeah, once this round before the cleanup phase.

When this character or another ALA character is attacking or defending during the modified dice SCEP, this character may be reroll all of us attack of defense dice.

Oh my word this Okay, so that's only once per round.

Okay, only in quotes, but wow, and everything mystic.

Now what, let's take a look at attacks again.

Does mystic help this?

Aside from just being sometimes you know, people are weaker to mystic, does that help anything?

Spending nothing stands out.

I mean, I guess the spectacular spinning Jenny.

If you can turn that to a seven dice mystic area too, that's kind of cool.

Yeah, it's not incredible though.

Reroll all attack of defense dice is cool.

It's all as well, it's not any.

Yeah, it's the less good one.

So yeah, I mean, we're already spending five on that spender.

Are we going to spend seven for this card?

You know, like the extra two to play this card.

Yeah, I think so, I don't know.

And then and then you have to like you need to know in advance that people are going to have a week be weak to mystic and some people some people are, if some characters are, but it's not like a universal thing.

Yeah, I mean maybe you take this in the web Borwers mirror, right, the mirror match, take this, Yeah, some mystic in that's quite cool.

Actually, if you're expecting to see a lot more web borrowers in your matter, maybe this is worth taking there.

But yeah, yeah, it doesn't stand out as an incredible card.

It's cheap though, two power.

Yeah, it does cause a Taxtics card slot though, yeah, that's probably more important.

Yeah.

And when you're playing webs right, you're taking your restricted, you're taking all webbed up, you're taking Spider Tracker, and you know in the mirror match, you're probably taking art Maids week cakes.

In fact, you definitely are now because web borrowers give out slow, so art MAI's week case gets really slow, which is really important in the mirror match because then when they when your opponent plays or webbed up, you can remove some of the slows to not take so many.

So much damage, and now those characters that give out slow, I think it makes art Mad's weak cakes even more important, which just pushes this out of the fire.

I think that's wild.

Okay, so yeah, this one maybe maybe not.

Probably leaning to maybe not, but I think maybe not.

There is another card.

There is an attackic card in his box which is not on this panel to play card.

Yeah, if they reveal that, you know, when we do the future episodes, we'll just do like a sleeve, it'll heave it.

Who knows, nybe that will help?

Okay, Yeah, I was just taking a look at their shop to see if it mentions what's in the box specifications.

No, no, it doesn't seem like they don't give you that kind of like nitty greet Wait yeah, it just as it comes with cards, doesn't say how many yet, so.

Number there was a number somewhere.

People are talking about how we've not seen all the cards.

Yeah, okay, okay, so exciting times for Weblarriors out of when's the last time they've gotten significantly changed, you know, by releases?

When black Cat got buffed, I mean, Scar Spider came out right with Gwenham.

But those guys don't really see play unfortunately.

Yeah, so Becky Specky is the last time sign a.

Spotline was a huge bump for them, a really really strong Peter Parker for them.

But now we've got a Peter Porker and Peter Parker nine two on four and a Cindy Moons they go new toys.

So fun fact Silver Sable is a web Warrior.

Yeah, hey maybe we said it.

Does another leadership come in?

Maybe Silver Table becomes relevant?

Th can you imagine I'd be amazing cool?

I think the character is really cool, such a well designed character, Silver Sabling.

No, but it doesn't really get seen.

I played here in Sentinels when I was cheating, you remember.

It was great.

So we hope you enjoyed this little preview.

We're not going to do a sleevery rehevit because this is a megasode with the three characters instead of the normal too.

But yeah, I'm excited.

This is really fun stuff to try to unpack because it's all coming at once, right, Jimmie.

It's it's like, you know, all these characters are going to be out, So there's clearly some sort of design that AMG has a mind for the Affiliation and It's not just like a couple of characters that got thrown into the affiliation and people are scratching their heads thinking like what's the point of these things?

Yeah, exactly, and yeah a whole other box that comes with these which could change everything.

Right, We've seen boxes in the past, like whole affiliations get changed because of one typus card.

So who knows what's coming in the other boxes?

Right, So stay tuned for that special box.

So sorry special card, who knows what it might be?

And until next time, cheers and clammy gamy bah very good.
