Interesting thoughts, fellas. While I hate duos 99/100 times Beetle and Booster are ones I would consider sticking on a sideboard.

I feel very much the same way: Blue&Gold are inexpensive enough to merge from just about any combination of solo versions. The only other JLI duo that has offered me any success is the Mr. Miracle & Oberon figure (also from BatB), but with only a BST Oberon it only offers some of the duo shenanigans, so it just gets played as a 'peanut-base' figure starting on the force.

I actually really like the choices on the original team posted. If I was trying to use a similar roster and min-max I would make different choices (that FF Black Canary is a killer), but I think I ken what you are going for. If you do end up with a few extra points (by dropping to a bulldozer) and still have a theme team, consider the Birds of Prey ATA on Black Canary.

Not justifying, just commenting. Don't over-think it you might hurt yourself.

As far as duo's go I've also found the Oberon/Miracle duo very useful as mentioned. Using the FF Black Canary would break theme though so it would probably be best to stick with tyro's choice.

I have a trifecta of teams to tabulate for Tuesday - and I am very much looking forward to it!

900 Points - CSA vs Justice League. No extras.

Pretty straightforward build - that I am extremely excited about:

FFJLTW001 Ultraman - 250
FFJLTW002 Owlman - 150
FFJLTW003 Superwoman - 150
FFJLTW004 Power Ring - 100
FFJLTW005 Johnny Quick - 100
FFJLTW006 Deathstorm - 125
FFJLTW007 Atomica - 25
900

We will finally see who is the top dog!


Game 2: 300 Points Modern. Another easy one:
SR Martian Manhunter - 300


Game 3: 550 points, Unlikely Partnership. Team must have a set of archenemies on the team. The rest can be whatever. Golden Age.

Maybe:
SLOSH043 Orion - 200
SLOSH027 Kalibak - 150
JLTW206 Parademon - 45
JLTW206 Parademon - 45
JLTW206 Parademon - 45
JLTW012 Parademon - 50
535

15 points for a Resource?

Another option: Flash and Savitar - I've wanted to try out Savitar...

I also am muddling around making a marvelous meta-team for Monday.

400 points, Modern Age. No one over 100 points. Resources can only be assigned to characters 75 or lower.

I was thinking a Mojoverse team, but I run out of characters fast:
Psylocke
Shatterstar
Dazzler
Longshot

Maybe DC and this team:

100 FL059R Shade
98 WKD-011 Gentleman Ghost
90 SLOSH017B Cheetah
60 FL015 Rag Doll
40 BM006A Hired Henchman
388

Only downside is I've used Shade, Cheetah and Craddock a few times already - but are they fun!

I gotta make some teams and I can't store them anywhere so :

Friday:
100 JLTW033E Lex Luthor
235 JLTW059 Despero
25 WOL063P Ophidian
99 JLTW002 Catwoman
115 FL028 Tarpit
2 WOLR103 Power Battery (Orange Lantern Corps)
6 WOLR303 Orange Lantern Ring
8 WOLR203.01 Net (Orange)
10 WOLR203.05 Crossbow (Orange)
4 WOLR203.11 Bulldozer (Orange)
6 WOLR203.06 Decoy (Orange)
100 FL059R Shade
710

This Friday, it's bring a fun team - no resources.

I'm thinking about these Avengers:
80 AAOU003R Captain America
300 AAOU008 Hulk
75 AAOU105 Black Widow
75 AAOU106 Hawkeye
25 FFCW005R Mockingbird
45 CW022 Sharon Carter
600

Not sure if this team is casual enough but I really want to try the Hulk.

Change of plans - didn't make it. Haven't used that Hulk (or Cap) yet...

Newest team to consider in 2 weeks (sealed this Friday):

I'm expecting an AoU Hulk or two to show. He's a bastard of a piece but I'm hoping this could slow him down.
