The Springtime Smackdown Finals: The matchup

With a best of three final, at first glance, it would seem that Ultimate Fear holds a decisive advantage, however, lets take a closer look at what both decks need to accomplish in order to succeed.

-Ultimate Fear- has a little bit of everything. A fantastic stall option, solid searchability, access to out of combat stuns, and a potent lategame win condition. With access to Clint Barton the build can remove any major threats to it's varying engines, and with several hidden options, Ultimate Fear can nerf Horse's early game giving it no characters to benefit from its team-up or an early Captain America. However, missed early drops will hurt Fear badly. If fear can make it to turn 7, it stands a solid chance to win.

-...and the Horse you rode in on-  has some insane early game ramping bolstered by two gamebreaking Lex Luthors. Lex literally shuts down every character effect Fear brings to bear. If Horse can get Lex into play, and keep him alive, the game will then be decided on who can out-bully the other, and bullying is what Horse does best.

The game results will be up tonight. followed shortly afterwards with the written batreps and (Hopefully) i'll have a prepped video for you all soon.

To the betters out there, Good Luck!
