Some teeth long for ripping, gleaming wet from black dog gums. So you keep your eyes closed at the end. You don't want to see such a mouth up close. before the bite, before its oblivion in the goring of your soft parts, the speckled lips will curl back in a whinny of excitement. You just know it.
Is there a limit to how many daily missions you can have active at once? How diligent do you need to be about clearing them out?

The size is pretty much the same as Hearthstone you just have one copy of everything instead of two for almost everything.
Much in the same way that Hearthstone is the same as Magic, you just have two copies instead of four. Therefore: Snap is Magic.

Wait until you play onslaught on that location. It can getting nutty. I see a 3,000 power location with iron man and onslaught.

Is there enough juice to make a destroy deck work in pool 2? I got Bucky Barnes and Killmonger as my first 2 cards which seems like a start, at least. Loving the latter because i'm still running into so many people playing pool 1 zoo decks

Do you mean Onslaught’s Citadel, the ongoing version? Not sure how Onslaught is meant to interact with Kamar-Taj.

I had the one that gives you a free 6 cost, which gave me a free Onslaught, and played Morph who turned into my opponent's Blue Marvel. This happened on turn 3. My opponent snapped turn 4 not realizing I had my own Blue Marvel and Onslaught in my hand. Shenanigans occurred

Yeah. The RNG of the locations will probably annoy me once I have top tier netdecked builds trying to climb to infinite, but it also means janky gimmick decks that can win sometimes will have more staying power and thus shenanigans will keep me playing for longer.

Ohhh I was wondering if Iron Man's effect gets doubled with that location. I haven't tried it out yet.

Built a deck for the Odin meta with the 2x on reveal location in the hot spot. Guess I'll have to start doing the maths as I looked well in the lead only to end up losing the middle location by 1 after everything resolved

Yeah I'm hoping too. No other card game has had the staying power for me of early Hearthstone days. I liked Gwent but eventually got exhausted.

Paying more attention to laddering now that the new-card-flow has slowed to a trickle, and I think the "Snap!" system might be my favorite thing about this game (besides locations and Uatu). In Hearthstone laddering there are many times I'd trade half/4th/8th of a rank to move on to the next game.

Also a big fan of unlocking random new cards for my competitive deck by way queuing up a deck full of trash and throwing 1/10th of a rank to someone else (or pulling off a BS victory with big-brain plays).

I'm nearing the cusp of the end of Pool 1 and am conflicted if I rank up to unlock new cards or keep playing with my decks and try to reach Infinite while I have a nicely tuned deck at pool 1 to take advantage of being a big fish in a smaller pond.

So I did it today and can add some useless info about Onslaught's Citadel. I played *only* Iron Man and Onslaught and got 1,792 power.

I didn't get any abilities to put them down earlier. I did a vanilla play of Iron Man on turn 5 and Onslaught on turn 6.

Some teeth long for ripping, gleaming wet from black dog gums. So you keep your eyes closed at the end. You don't want to see such a mouth up close. before the bite, before its oblivion in the goring of your soft parts, the speckled lips will curl back in a whinny of excitement. You just know it.

Imo good things about competitive card games:

Everyone not having the same cards which leads to...

...everyone not having the same deck.

...people being creative with what they have instead of netdecking.

It reminds me of consistently winning Netrunner tournaments. In that case everyone had the same cards (living card game, all possible cards bought at once), so it's different sure, but using cards that were unpopular and unexpected enabled me to crush hard.

Until kamar-taj rotates away, yep.

I'm pre-emptively fussing because I don't have half the pieces I need for a decent Destroy deck, but I've got good enough for pool 1 Reveal and Ongoing jobs.

I mean Netrunner gives you all the cards at ocne though, right? There's no random element

Well, there's one I've never seen before: TVA, ends the game at turn 4.

With a Miss Minutes animation, too, so I guess they can play with MCU stuff if they want?

Possible bug with Death's Doman (When you play a card here, destroy it.)

I should be able to move Nightcrawler there and play Hulk Buster, because Hulk Buster reveals and merges before the location can kill it, right? And Nightcrawler technically wasn't played there.

Nope. Hulk Buster merges with Nightcrawler, location kills Nightcrawler. Flavor-wise it makes sense, but based on the other similar interactions I've seen with this game I'm surprised it played out like that. I bet if I played Hulk Buster the following turn it would've been fine.

You're PLAYing Hulk Buster there. It merges when you play it and then it's destroyed since it and Nightcrawler are the same card
