Sun Wukong seems to be the strongest in this set and generally good fighter. As Achilles there is no good time to kill sidekick. Try to do it as fast as possible. +2 to all attacks is very strong.
That is apparently not entirely true..this particular match up (sun wukong vs Achilles) played by pro players shows indeed that it is much more convenient to keep Pat alive as long as possible in order not to run out of cards with Achilles and therefore to die by exhaustion.
Dying by exhaustion would be my concern with Achilles drawing extra cards. Pit him against somebody like the Invisible man, who plays an exhaustion game...or against a Bruce Lee who keeps pulling cards back into his hand. That would likely be a bad day for Achilles.
I finally got to play Bloody Mary, and see my son play Yennenga, this evening. Both had powerful moments. Bloody Mary won. I was able to start my turn with 3 cards quite a few times, taking advantage of the healing ability, and the extra-powerful 7 attack. Yennenga defended against one of those while I was on 3 zones, and only took one damage.
One of the things I like about this game is that each fighter plays to different strategies. They feel different. Some matchups are more favorable than others. And if you get the right card draw, and do the right things at the right time, anybody can beat anybody on any night. So many variables fit into a really tight game. Restoration Games really does an outstanding job. And the Art!!!!! Did I say how awesome it is?
