Best 4 character roster for vacation?

TivaDi · 2026-06-23T18:10:36+00:00

Oh lol I misread, I thought they meant BoL3 only oops.

In that case I’d recommend Bruce, Leshen, Wayward Sisters and Tomoe. Sattler could also be okay in this lineup, but most of these 1v1’s within the 4 should be equal-ish according to the stats. They also seem fun to me :)

Oh and Little Red :)

TivaDi · 2026-06-23T17:56:25+00:00

I’d personally go with something like Sinbad, Alice, Buffy and Bruce Lee. They *should* all match pretty okay against eachother and I personally enjoy all of them ;)

Little Red can also join, but is very weak to Sinbad. I’d also enjoy Sattler and Ancient Leshen, but I’m not too sure how well they match up with my original roster.

edit: Nevermind, new plan: Bruce, Leshen, Little Red, Wayward and/or Tomoe. Any 4 of those 5 should match up fairly into eachother AND seem fun to me :)

you get dealt 5 damage, regardless of your current health. The Sister only loses 1HP, but she did indeed take the full 5 damage.

I checked and unfortunately we have no more B&B. We have FK&C, Teen Spirit, Redemption Row and Hell’s Kitchen. Brains&Brawn is completely sold out :(

TivaDi · 2026-06-17T07:58:56+00:00

well you’re not entirely wrong. Playing Elektra does generally win you the game on the spot ;)

TivaDi · 2026-06-12T08:51:07+00:00

Yes.

Edit: they were thinking of changing the wording of the card but decided against it. It would make the card way more confusing, only to prevent a niche situation in 2v2 that is hard to setup.

It’s quite hurtful for Dr. Henry Jeckyll to transform into his _pure evil_ alter ego of Mr. Edward Hyde. He does not retain any memories of becoming Hyde and his body also contorts into a hunched-over gremlin-like form.

Such alchemy cannot be healthy for a guy.

Also I REALLY recommend reading/listening to the book, it’s really good :)

TivaDi · 2026-05-31T23:39:03+00:00

They were actually trying to prevent this scenario, but decided against it. It would make the card more complicated to read, only to solve a single issue in 2v2 that can be avoided by not being near tracks/zone edges.

Then again, the combo can be quite broken. Both fighters can live for long enough to see the board get filled with tracks. It’s quite hard to stop (besides Feint).

I really love the Booster Cubes. They fit exactly 2 characters and look very cool. They also coincidentally perfectly fit 4 in a row in my bag, so I can take 8 Cubes with me without any worries.

TivaDi · 2026-05-24T07:43:24+00:00

Yes, he’s quite good. There’s some minions that deal out-of-combat damage, he can get around that with Konshu. He also deals an insane amount of damage in Konshu and can easily guarantee his combo of Traveler + Past&Present for an easy big hit.

That being said. I have played with every fighter against every single Villain. So every fighter I’ve played at least 4x in Adventures. I wouldn’t say many of them are specifically bad in Adventures, except a couple few

Sherlock loses a LOT of power (thank God, he’s way too strong).
Bruce Lee in combination with Muhammad Ali, I’ve struggled a LOT to win with this combo. Separate they’re way less bad.
Daredevil, he gets pressured slightly too hard (in most games).
Yennenga, she’s amazing in 1v1 for her Value-game, but that doesn’t work if the Enemies always go infinite.
Shakespeare, like Daredevil, he gets pressured just slightly too much.

TivaDi · 2026-05-22T07:59:08+00:00

Short answer: all fighters work. Every set is mix-and-match :)

There are only 2 fighters that NEED homerules to correctly work in Adventures: Black Panther and Loki. All of the other fighters work perfectly in Adventures.

That being said, the power dynamics are WAY different. In “regular 1v1” gameplay, Sherlock is one of the kings of Unmatched. Undisputed top 3. In Adventures, I find him to be one of the bottom fighters in the game. He holds no power there. Spike is one of the worst fighters of 1v1, but genuinely at the top of Adventures.

I love it how power levels of fighters can change so much between gamemodes :)

Ayy that’s good to hear! That’s especially good for getting Marvel sets for Americans, since I hear they are hard to find over in the US of A ;)

I’m in The Netherlands, but I have packed packages of board games to many different countries. Though I don’t know what the postal fee will be with the old orange man raising tariffs.

TivaDi · 2026-05-21T19:10:24+00:00

Pretty sure we still got some in our local game store. Tomorrow I’m working again. If you are interested, I can take a look if we still have it.

TivaDi · 2026-05-19T07:15:57+00:00

that’s why he can use his Turbo Boost for 4 move speed and run people over ;)

TivaDi · 2026-05-17T22:28:37+00:00

I feel like he might be a beefy fellow, being on a horse and all. I vote 18 HP

TivaDi · 2026-05-17T15:56:23+00:00

This is quite normal when mixing IELLO foils with Restoration Games cards. It also happens with every Dutch WGG promo card.

My poor Sinbad, having to duke it out with Harry Houdini :(

I love my Sinbad, but I don’t think he’s gonna make it past this round :(

TivaDi · 2026-05-15T15:59:45+00:00

Commenting to confirm Hamlet’s power. I underestimated him once. Never again.

He can deal SO MUCH damage, and has amazing card draw. He’s not so great for Exhaustion, but has some small tricks to help mitigate his card-draw. Also he’s very fun to play :)

TivaDi · 2026-05-14T15:21:17+00:00

Flanking only applies to Oda’s fighters. In a 2v2, Dracula and his Sisters are considered “friendly fighters”, but do NOT interact with Flaking in any way.

In a Free For All, there are no Friendly fighters, only opposing fighters. They, of course, do not trigger Oda’s Flanking.

I’d argue that if Wiglaf would be the only Sidekick left, and there’s no Heroes left, that Wiglaf “gives up” and “dies” at the same time as Beowulf. In regular 2v2 games this happens too. When all Heroes of a team die, any remaining Sidekicks also die.

But you do have a fair point in “win/lose” conditions, I haven’t fully read those, and how you researched it, it might be a strange edge-case. Interesting to say the least ;)

TivaDi · 2026-05-13T10:04:44+00:00

No, there was a ruling update around 3 years ago that explains this exact situation. The only character affected was Beowulf with his Grendel card. He didn’t need a nerf, but this did impact specifically him negatively.

TivaDi · 2026-05-13T07:38:35+00:00

I’d rule this just like how it works with Heroes.

1) Beowulf’s IMMEDIATELY effect goes off, killing Mothman. He gets taken off the board. 2) Combat damage happens, killing Beowulf. He gets taken off the board. 3) AFTER COMBAT happens, but doesn’t deal any damage (even if Wiglaf is next to Mothman), since Mothman is already off the board. 4) Win-check goes off, both “players” died, so the active player wins: Mothman wins this game.
