Quoted from Deez:

I think one of the major things missed also was once the brotherhood multiball is lit, hitting the brotherhood targers lights villan which is a big advantage for reaching dark phoenix.

Not just brotherhood, it's whatever villain Mb bank is completed. If both HFC and Brotherhood are completed, any hit to either will light villain at the scoop.

I do think Bowen really slimmed on real strategy and nuance in the rules here. I feel like he just played the game and really didn't know the rules that well, because the Brotherhood/HFC targets is a huge deal, and tyere wasn't even an attempt to explain the DR rules, or even seem to care about the rules in the game in general. Just felt "phoned in", which is sad because there's such great nuance and little stuff in XM that make it great, and pretty much everything was skimmed over.

I feel terrible saying that because it seems like I'm ungrateful for all the time he spends on these tutorials and what he does for us, but I'm totally grateful for them! It's just that XM is a title that deserves so much more credit than it gets now, and I feel like that was a lot opportunity to make it shine.
