When describing the game of Smash Up to someone who hasn’t played it, things are usually pretty clear as you describe the Ninjas, Pirates, or Zombies. Mentioning the Bear Cavalry is likely to get you a “wait, what?” response. The factions for this matchup between Lucas Gerke and Jacob Ganser feature four factions from relatively early on in Smash Up’s ten year history. Lucas is deploying the previously mentioned Bear Cavalry. Their combination of disruption and movement generated destruction makes them one of the game’s most iconic factions. Lucas will have way more actions to play than minions as the other half of his combo is the Princesses faction. This faction has only six minions, but they are all power five with very strong abilities. Jacob will be attempting to counter all of this with one faction from the same expansion as the Bear Cavalry, the Steampunks. They both lean on actions played on bases, with the Steampunks equally iconic Aggromotive and Rotary Slug Thrower. Jacob’s other faction comes from The Obligatory Cthulhu Set, a set Lucas had success with earlier in the tournament. The fish people of Innsmouth have come to swarm all bases in their path. Bear Cavalry & Princesses vs. Innsmouth & Steampunks. Lucas vs. Jacob. Will a winning streak end today or will our season finale feature two undefeated players? Subscribe to Storytelling Breakdown wherever you get your podcasts.
