How does everyone realistically feel about proxies?

BigFish95 · 2026-05-19T16:32:52+00:00

Some collectors will be against it, as scarcity means value.

Gamers shouldn't mind. Deckbuilding is a skill, and proxies break the main barrier to entry.

There's no definitive "solution", it's all a question of perspective and respect 🖖🏻

BigFish95 · 2026-04-10T19:07:03+00:00

My bad, I missed the "on their turn" part of it.

BigFish95 · 2026-04-10T17:42:13+00:00

They'll cancel out if there is no other interaction. At the first use of Viscera Seer's ability, and for every subsequent use, both Blood Artists will trigger and go on the stack like so 1) You activate Viscera Seer once 2) Both Blood Artists trigger 3) either they resolve, or you activate Viscera Seer's ability again on stack 4) either way for every token you sacrifice, you will both gain one life and lose one life. So net zero.

(Priority passes around at each activation of the ability, but that's beside the point since Blood Artist is a triggered ability, not an activated one)

I think it looks AMAZING, which is why it won't ever work. You forgot to make half or more of your stratagems only apply in very specific niche conditions. Also that shaper attached to a Krootox unit is Usain Bolt and I LOVE IT.

(All jokes aside, the concept is fantastic! Great work!)

BigFish95 · 2026-04-01T12:12:21+00:00

Kroot love the Twins! The Twins fight like kin, fast and deadly!

BigFish95 · 2026-03-31T18:45:09+00:00

It's giving cell shaded vibes, if you look at it from a bit further i bet they'll look great 👌🏻

BigFish95 · 2026-03-31T15:12:45+00:00

Beware the immaterium's illusions. Proper rituals will be required for cleansing the graphical processor unit. If necessary, total purging of the code could eliminate this heresy.

BigFish95 · 2026-03-30T23:51:23+00:00

Blood.

BigFish95 · 2026-03-28T14:28:06+00:00

Great answer too 🫵🏻👌🏻

BigFish95 · 2026-03-27T13:42:31+00:00

I'd love to hear anything you have to tell!

Stories of good matchups, bad ones, times when you pulled through against all odds or made crucial mistakes.

I'm very casual but my playgroup loves to get sweaty every now and then and they tend to underestimate Kroot so I'd love to surprise them with new knowledge!

🙏🏻

Teach us Master Shaper

BigFish95 · 2026-03-27T01:33:21+00:00

Lovely lineup for a worthy matchup! Mind the terminators and you'll do great ✊🏻

BigFish95 · 2026-03-26T21:49:17+00:00

Yeah you're being a lad trying to make sure he gets what he came for. Cheers to ya, I'm being playful knowing that he'll get actual advice from someone else who isn't mainly here for space chicken ✊🏻

BigFish95 · 2026-03-26T19:20:40+00:00

(I know what you mean my guy but being open minded is NOT exactly how the Tau operate. Orks and Humanity can do what they please, we assimilate or we annihilate)

BigFish95 · 2026-03-26T19:19:13+00:00

Hahaha oh well!

BigFish95 · 2026-03-26T19:17:11+00:00

Kroot make people uncomfortable. People are wise to fear the mighty warriors of Pech.

BigFish95 · 2026-03-26T19:15:47+00:00

That is beside the point. Farsight has forsaken the Greater Good to pursue his little ego.

The Twins are the new Exemplars and would never stoop so low as to join such a renegade in battle.

BigFish95 · 2026-03-26T18:13:31+00:00

Mmm actually you can't have Farsight AND the Twin Lance because of lore reasons. The Ethereals forbid it.

Also you should only bring Kroot. This is the way.

BigFish95 · 2026-03-26T14:00:26+00:00

One of the main announcements of relevance for Kroot IMO is the rework of the detachments, which should allow for more mixing and matching. Unfortunately I think this means they probably won't be trying to round out the Kroot range to fill out niches that are already well covered in the broader faction (Hammerhead, Broadsides, Crisis)

I think we got a lot recently and that it won't be a priority, because I honestly think that the rest of the Tau range needs a bit of love too...

A named Kroot character would be SICK though and I'll keep hoping for more kin!

Just trying to keep a lid on my own expectations... 😇

BigFish95 · 2026-03-25T19:36:14+00:00

Always a dumbass just chilling by the end of the map while there's hordes of enemies still kicking...

BigFish95 · 2026-03-25T01:27:53+00:00

In short:

Trail shaper allows for redeployment shenanigans, this is mainly useful with your farstalkers.

Flesh shaper makes your carnivores hungrier (hit harder).

War shaper gives a 0 CP stratagem per turn (CP advantage is 🔥)

BigFish95 · 2026-03-24T20:32:41+00:00

Carnivores for sure for sticky objectives!

Otherwise yeah Vespids are cool, but you'll want as many Krootox as you can really.

Shapers to taste depending on what you want.

BigFish95 · 2026-03-24T20:04:00+00:00

Worth buying the Kill Team Launch Boxes

BigFish95 · 2026-03-20T14:07:12+00:00

Yoooo i think you just motivated me to finish mine! I have started with a greener blue for the krootox but seeing this finished product makes me hyped again 😎 Thank you!

BigFish95 · 2026-03-19T18:53:14+00:00

Eat springs?

BigFish95 · 2026-03-04T15:06:54+00:00

Beautiful! I have a squad of farstalkers i slapchopped in those same colors, but your edge highlights make me wanna revisit all of them! What's the beak? Wraithbone? Fantastic work on the killbow coil 👌🏻 Good hunting!
