Fun-suckers...

Some complain that Haley sucks the fun out of the game; others Sorcha, and others Kreoss. Heck, almost any Prime 'caster seems to suck someone's fun. For me, it's Everblight. I can't beat them. It doesn't matter if it's the cocky arrogant power gamer ramming stuff down my throat or a really nice guy who just picked up the faction because he liked the idea of “land sharks.” I have lost every single match up to this army, regardless of player and regardless of which “Blue” I'm fielding. The combination of speed, effortless synergy, and independence just overwhelms me.

Take today. Playing a really nice guy up at the LGS who only runs Legion. Just a friendly game, but due to game mechanics, my stupidity, and his insane dice rolling (which is quite often now that everyone but me seems to have picked up casino dice) I get steamrolled flat in a 750. I just don't have an answer for this faction or anything that it can do. I left especially early because I just lost all desire to play, even though it's the one time I get to play and I had another two or three hours to go. Even if it was fighting Circle (with it's own fun-sucking mechanics) Skorne, or whatever. I'd rather fight 30 zealots Menoth than Legion. So I'm just a wee bit frustrated at the moment...
