Champions

4/5
J'aime bien le design, les rampes, l'ambiance, ...
En gros ça pourrait être une table que j'adore,
mais je ne suis pas fan du combat contre Bombshell,
et je ne comprends pas comment choisir les alliés (ndlr : j'ai pas lu le guide).

J'ai continué le pack Women of Power dans ma lancé. Je met 2/5 à celle-ci. Je l'a trouve un poil trop chargée cette table, comme d'hab' pas hyper fan quand y'a plein de modes qui se jouent les uns sur les autres. Pas fan non plus de l'ambiance sonore. Donc mouais bof bof, j'ai pas envie de pousser plus loin, juste un petit top 1 vite fait histoire de... Car les parties pourraient clairement être interminable dessus avec des scores astronomiques si l'envie était là :

ha, cool. Pas plus tard qu'hier, je lisais un comics sur kamala khan, et je me disais qu'il faudrait que je finisse de maximiser les boosts sur cette table. et j'ai mes scores 1 joueur et 5 minutes à améliorer.

J'ai failli m'endormir tellement la bille roule lentement ...

amélioration en partie simple un joueur :

t'as encore tout fait péter

comme ant-man, elle a un multiball qui peut faire exploser les scores.
et d'ailleurs comme ant-man, elle a une rampe transversale que je trouve pas évident à prendre.

Women of Power: Champions is a damn good table that becomes way more fun once you learn what you're supposed to do. The big gimmick of this table is that you can stack modes into each other to increase the points scored during Ms. Marvel, and thus, the wizard mode; this multi-layered structure gives the table a lot of replay value and keeps me hooked. Combined with the "multiball freezes the timers" rule, it's a flawless basis for a table. And the layout is insanely well done as well - that winding lane is absolutely incredible and the only other game I can think of that does it is Stern Godzilla, which came out last year, so there's clearly a lot of potential. Add in the traditional Zoltan combo rule and I don't have much negative to say.

The cartoony theme is clearly not meant to be taken seriously, and after a lot of these Marvel tables have been relatively dark, it's a refreshing change of pace. But it does it's job all things considered, and I think that the twist of who Bombshell really is in relation to the Champions very much works in this format. It reminds me of the "the Ringmaster is Voltaire" reveal in Cirqus Voltaire where it helps establish the world this game takes place in further.

My one negative is that this table seemed to be the start of Zoltan Vari placing more reliance on the main multiball for high scores instead of the wizard mode. I think I understand why he does this, it's because multiballs are generally far easier to access for novice players and scoring huge points can get them addicted, which is fair. It's just kinda disappointing as an advanced player that the wizard mode scores far less than the main multiball. Hopefully this isn't the case with Noir.

Overall, a strong 4/5 ranking from me, dropped slightly because of Squirrel Girl Multiball being a tad overpowered. Otherwise this is a table I can strongly recommend, though it's certainly not for everyone.
