Expect to go up against Chanos and Sentroid at some point. What do you build without playong either of thse pieces?

Thanos, issue #4? Anyone played him competetively?

He wouldn't be my first choice, but without Chanos or Ventry, there aren't a ton of good options. I might give Thanos a shot. His Shrunk, 19D and Prob can make it a bit tough for the opponent to hit (a weakness of both Chanos and Ventry), Toy With You will be rough, but you can survive. A Ventry, even with a few witches might have some trouble hitting, and with your Colossal Stamina you should be able to track him down eventually and get the hit. I won't give you the best odds, but it's worth a shot.

What about:

*Professor X
*2 deep dialed figures that both share a keyword with Professor X and both higher points.
*Some cheap perplex or enhancement.

If Chanos pulls my 2 high point figures, he only has 150 pts of teammates to take them out. As long as even 1 survives, now Xavier can attack with PsyBlast.

I'm afraid that this may handle Chanos, but Ventry could just surround himself with figures to keep Xavier from being able to range attack him.

Leech seems to be a good option right now. that little 35pt figure can wreak havoc on most sentry teams. Just give him someone like Abin Sur or Dinah Soar to hull him around.

That's kind of the problem, a lot of what works on one fails to work on the other.
