Verminion - strategies vs human players

[Myon88]

Yeah all the 'X race only' rules are pretty annoying to be honest, and so are the rules like 'C20 and below' that change what minions you can field. It tends to lead to a lot of degenerate gameplay if a certain important counter is unable to be fielded.

That said, 'critters only' is probably the one I dislike the least, since while you end up seeing a lot of coeurl kittens and wolf pups, the swarm nature of those strategies still rewards good micro and situational awareness.

Last week's poppets only tournament is probably the most boring ruleset in my opinion. Apart from Rikku, most of the great poppet minions are expensive ones, so when theres's just 8 hildies on the field (for example) there isn't much room for the same depth of gameplay. And 'monsters only' is almost as bad as there is no monster counter to baby bat spam in my opinion - so you just see bat spam on both sides.
