I 100% disagree with your guy's yondu takes. I see yondu has giving your opponent a better American Chavez 7/8ths of the time. Iceman and korg are good cards in the same energy slot that actually do disruption.

Joey Freshwater posted:I've seen a lot of people playing Lizard lately and I don't understand why. It's not like he's powerful on his own but that debuff makes him near useless. Is there something I'm missing? I really like Lizard because if you play him early, you can pressure your opponent into feeling like they need to drop a load of cards onto that location. A turn 2 card that makes it so you're the one setting the pace and direction of the game tends to be pretty good.

Serperoth posted:Oddly enough, he seems to kill her more often than anything else Actually that is a how Chavez is programmed. Chavez is shuffled into the deck normally. If you were going to draw her before turn 6, then her ability activates and you draw the 2nd top card in your deck. So she just chilling at the top of your deck waiting for her moment.

Charity Porno posted:or again, Mantis if you really want to gently caress up their deck This is absurd. You need to guess the right lane before Mantis is even on par with Yondu, and you need to play the card you get before she's actually better. Going through the list of 1-drops, Yondu is strictly better than Angel, Elektra (at least once you get Killmonger), Hawkeye, Mantis, Misty Knight (excluding Patriot decks), Quicksilver and Uatu. He's also generally better than Nightcrawler and Rocket, and conditionally better than almost else anything apart from Sunspot, Iceman and Korg.

Jedit posted:strictly better than Please learn what words mean, the only card Yondu is strictly better than is Misty Knight. Anyway he's definitely not the strongest card but I think it's pretty ridiculous to consider him the worst. (For my money I'd give that honor to Domino, but I also haven't hit pool 3 yet)

Noticed a weird bug today. The opponent's Enchantress suppressed my Sandman (with the hazard symbol and everything) but the Sandman visual effect played anyway. I have no idea if it also still limited us to one card because I open palm slammed Onslaught down and immediately hit end turn and the opponent also only played one card.

the cards like Wolverine and Nova that say "when destroyed" means only when they're in play and not also in your hand right?

They both show you one card. Mantis is only better if you actually play the card or somehow otherwise benefit from it being in your hand. I will keep playing Yondu because a 1/12 chance of nuking your oppoonent's win condition (plus sometimes other good stuff) is pretty good for a 1-cost with a standard body.

Far as I can tell, Yondu will reliably get you info on the sort of deck the other person is running if you play it on 1, but milling their deck by one card is generally pretty useless unless you get lucky and hit an extremely important card and the other person will also know that card is missing and can act on that, while Mantis gets you extra options + the other person doesn't know if what you drew is a vital combo piece or not but in trade won't always fire off. Yondu doesn't seem super great but it's a passable filler if you care about having chaff on the field for other purposes, on the other hand apparently Yondu's destroy works for Death so I guess if you have the full pool 3 destroy deck going it could be worth it as filler?

you probably know your opponents deck archetype after their 2-drop anyway, so the 'intel advantage' doesn't really work for me wrt yondu. also there's zero way that he's better than nightcrawler or rocket. once hes on the board he's just a quicksilver. mill is, in every game, a classic trap. it 'feels' good but its not very useful

Even if you don't play the drawn card, it is much better when you are the only one who knows what card was removed from your opponent's deck. If Yondu only showed the person who played it which of their opponents cards it removed, that would 100% be a buff (this is how I think Yondu should be buffed, btw)

Even if it's not their big win condition, SO many games come down to something like "Ok, I win this turn, unless he plays a Shang-Chi, then I'm hosed" -- good decks in this game have multiple ways to win and usually aren't dependent on drawing a specific card every time, but just being able to eliminate one option can often give you the information you need to win games. The problem is that it can also give your opponent the information they need to either retreat or just play around the missing card, which is why I think Yondu would be way more interesting if he only showed you the card that's removed.

I'm definitely not in love w/ card collection, and can't wait for the collector tokens. My last 5 cards in pool 2 were all pretty important pieces for decks I wanted to run or just the most powerful cards in the set (Vulture, Jubilee, Infinaut, Killmonger, and Iceman). My first card in pool 3 is...Agatha.

I love unintentional interactions. Just had a guy play enchantress on Washington D.C. (+3 if no abilities) where I had 4 ongoing cards. It neutered them but then gave the lane +12 since they were all now powerless. They couldn't back out because they insta-snapped after they dropped it.
