You do not have to play a tire 1 squad ever time you know, I know you don't have to play a Tier 1 squad. In fact, the squad I played at our last tourney was Tier 2 at best (Kyle/Mara/Wedge). And in past vassal tourneys, I've never played the same squad twice, except for last year during the GPL, when I was practicing nonstop with my Gencon squad. But you do have to play a Tier 1 squad if you want to be competitive and stand a decent chance of winning. And right now that means either GOWK or anti-GOWK. From what I've heard, in many LGSs, a good player can bring Tier 2/2.5 squads and still do really well, just by skill alone, because he may be significantly more skilled than most others at his venue. But on Vassal, we have a LOT of very highly skilled players, which means that skill alone won't do the job...squad construction (and squad matchups) play a much more significant role. And therefore, you actually do need to play Tier 1 squads at these Vassal tourneys, if you want to be competitive. And while winning isn't everything for me, I sure don't play to lose either. And just for clarification, my frustration is not with any of the players at all.  It's with the stale meta that GOWK creates at 150pts.
