Hello all!
After the report we published about the national tournament of Batman Miniature Game in Cordoba, Spain, we wanted to do more in-depth analysis on the lists that were played and the metagame that was seen, as we did some time ago with the Batday.
Nº Participants= 28
Unlike the last BatDay, this time more Batman gangs were seen in there, more than Joker´s, perhaps because of the arrival of the Batman Arkham Knight, although he wasn't the most used Boss.
As for the most common Bosses, we have a three-way tie between AC Joker, Nighwing and Mad Hatter. The first two are not a surprise, as they were in the Batday, but Mad Hatter remarkable, among other things because it is the only option Boss of his band. It also provides control and is extremely resistant thanks to the two bodyguards going with him, in combination with his traits Small, Dodge and Charm, making him one of the best options available for leading a gang.
Regarding Henchmen, the most used is the Prisoner 04, the Bodyguard, one of the most useful henchman in my opinion, because it can increase the chances of survival of our Boss considerably. It should also be highlighted the MK1 Bot, being the cheapest of the three existing Bot, allowing us to save points and include more miniatures.
The undisputed winner as Free Agent was Catwoman, which it was seen in almost all bands of Wonderland and some of Batman. Its enormous mobility and her traits Total Vision and Primary Loot, made her decisive. Deadshot also was one of the most playerd free agent, as it did in the Batday. But White Rabbit was the most remarcable of them, replacing Enigma in the rankings, thanks to the combination of control skills and mobility.
We can also remark how equal was the score (between the second and 10th there were only three points difference), except for the first place, which was consolidated as a clear winner in both points and differential.
Also comment on what glad we are seeing Whatchmen and Enigma gangs between the first positions, being bands with some complexity in handling and so different than the rest of gangs.
After the report we published about the national tournament of Batman Miniature Game in Cordoba, Spain, we wanted to do more in-depth analysis on the lists that were played and the metagame that was seen, as we did some time ago with the Batday.
To begin, we must say that the offered statistics are made from the lists of the 28 participants of the tournament, with the idea of identifying the most played gangs, and the most used Bosses, Henchmen and Free Agents, comparing the results with the ones of the last Batday.
Highlighting the presence of "new" bands like Wonderland, Scarecrow or Court of the Owls, who allowed more variety in the list of participants, particularly involving the first of the three, as discussed below.
Nº Participants= 28| Gang | Frequency |
| Batman | 5 |
| Joker | 4 |
| Wonderland | 3 |
| Bane | 3 |
Unlike the last BatDay, this time more Batman gangs were seen in there, more than Joker´s, perhaps because of the arrival of the Batman Arkham Knight, although he wasn't the most used Boss.
Also it should be highlighted the presence of Wonderland and Bane crew among the most common gangs, both of them have a great potential in the distance and the possibility of sharing White Rabbit, which has also been one of the most widely used Free Agents.
| BOSS | Frequency |
| Joker AC | 3 |
| Mad Hatter | 3 |
| Nightwing | 3 |
As for the most common Bosses, we have a three-way tie between AC Joker, Nighwing and Mad Hatter. The first two are not a surprise, as they were in the Batday, but Mad Hatter remarkable, among other things because it is the only option Boss of his band. It also provides control and is extremely resistant thanks to the two bodyguards going with him, in combination with his traits Small, Dodge and Charm, making him one of the best options available for leading a gang.
It must be commented that Bruce Wayne is still not in this ranking, even after the appearance of Batman AK.
| Henchmen | Frequency |
| Prisoner 04 | 7 |
| Bot MK1 | 6 |
| Gotham Policewoman | 5 |
| Little Spark | 5 |
Regarding Henchmen, the most used is the Prisoner 04, the Bodyguard, one of the most useful henchman in my opinion, because it can increase the chances of survival of our Boss considerably. It should also be highlighted the MK1 Bot, being the cheapest of the three existing Bot, allowing us to save points and include more miniatures.
The next on the list are old acquaintances: the Policewoman and Little Spark, which already repeated in presence as in the Batday, and indeed surprised that they were not more in this tournament.
| Free Agent | Frequency |
| Catwoman | 7 |
| Deadshot | 4 |
| White Rabbit | 4 |
The undisputed winner as Free Agent was Catwoman, which it was seen in almost all bands of Wonderland and some of Batman. Its enormous mobility and her traits Total Vision and Primary Loot, made her decisive. Deadshot also was one of the most playerd free agent, as it did in the Batday. But White Rabbit was the most remarcable of them, replacing Enigma in the rankings, thanks to the combination of control skills and mobility.
Top 10 Ranking
If we analyze the gangs at the Top 10, it should be highlighted the enormous variety among them; only Batman was repeated once.
We can also remark how equal was the score (between the second and 10th there were only three points difference), except for the first place, which was consolidated as a clear winner in both points and differential.
Also comment on what glad we are seeing Whatchmen and Enigma gangs between the first positions, being bands with some complexity in handling and so different than the rest of gangs.

Our apologies of our poor English!
We hope you liked it, as much as we do it,

Finally, highlight the significant differences in the metagame that we can saw comparing with the Batday, not having a band that detached this time, as if he did the Joker gang in the previous one, which is a good sign for this game and let clear that almost any band has a chance to face the rest.
And here our analysis of this first national Batman Miniature Game in Spain, and wishing to participate in the next, especially when it comes into play the new expansion book, which most likely will bring great changes to this game.
