We're all going to experience changes in our life but only the best of us will qualify for front row seats.

I have been playing a pool 2 deck with Mr Fantastic and Vision, and adding in Bucky has provided enough to deal with Death's Domain. Well, outside of move decks, but I usually have a terrible time against those anyway.

I did to get to witness someone playing Hulk Buster on a early placed Multiple Man, which then got claimed by Death. Hilarious.

Just had a match where the three loving locations were in order: Luke's Bar. Sanctum Sanctorum. Death's Domain.

Awesome so like 99% of decks can't place even a single card.

I just had this same combo in a different order. I was hoping to have some fun with my destroy deck but the opponent retreated as soon as the third location revealed. :smith:

Made a destroy-liking deck for Death's Domain and man, some games just play themselves

Opening location is Space Throne. Opponent plays Iceman right, cool.
Middle opens, it's Death's Domain. I drop Bucky on there, opponent goes Angela on the right.
Right opens, it's Oscorp

Before even getting my finger to the snap, they'd hit retreat

I just realize, Electro would be great in Death's Domain right? +1 energy is on reveal so it happens, and you don't have the ongoing

Correct. Playing Electro in DD, Oscorp or Murderworld is pro strategy.

I've got a handful of good Pool 3 cards, but I'm not sure if I have the right ones to make them click together. Or at the very least, my brain isn't making the connections.
I've got Sera, Mystique, Thor (though I'm pretty sure I need Jane Foster to make him more viable), Electro, Leader, Magik, Hela...plenty of good pieces, I just don't know how to make the most of them.

Take a look at the pool 2 decks and see if they can be improved by just one or two pool 3 cards. Ka-Zoo decks with Mystique for example, being able to just drop her and 3 one-drops on 6 makes it so much more reliable.

I think most of those cards don't work together without other pool 3s (I still don't understand what decks are supposed to run Magik). You've got some good cards in there though regardless.

There's definitely bugs with reveals and such. I just had to submit a report for Leader. We got Triskelion which gave me Red Skull and Iron Man. Turn 5 I played Red Skull opponent plays on a different location. Turn 6 I flip first, played Iron Man on Red Skull which should have given me the win. Opponent played Leader which first copied the Iron Man (not enough to win) but then copied the Red Skull from the previous turn!

Magik is good in a lot of decks, but specifically anything where more time helps you. Specifically I run her in my Apocalypse and Wong decks but really anything where an extra turn/7 energy can help you works

Hot locations are 24 hours, with a 60% chance of the location appearing. Featured locations (which are always new) are a 40% chance to appear and last 48 hours.

guess it depends on what my initial draw was and what the first area is. they are bluffing or insanely confident in their hand but at the end of the day you have to have a reasonable shot at winning. losing 2 cubes is worse than losing 1 and rerack

Dracula gives you a good plan B if you don't kill enough to get her out, and pairing her with Omega Red can give you an edge on the other locations. Pretty standard otherwise

Electro ramp, with leader and magik is solid. Just put in sunspot and a mix of your biggest 5 and 6 drops. Chavez for sure to more reliably hit electro and be ready to fold games you don't.

Deck might not be tier one or whatever, but something like a turn 4 Professor x is one of the strongest plays this game has. You will get cubes.

I think one of my favourite aspect of this game is that IP-based card battler phenomenon where these tiny bit players from the Marvel mythos suddenly become the main characters of every deck, getting this outsized importance. Like, who the hell is Angela. Meanwhile, I've seen Spider-Man in exactly one game. it gives the whole thing such a fun absurdity.

Yeah totally, and as a comics nerd from way back it’s fun to see how their in game powers line up to the real world ones.

Side note, whenever I get Galactus at random I *will* toss a game in the dumpster just so I can play him and get that cutscene :haw: Seems like an extremely hard card to pull off a win with

i drew him after being the first to fill a lane. I knew I was going to lose but I couldn't help it and stayed until the end so I could play him. Is there anything else crazy like playing Galactus in this game?

If you play all 6 stones it should just win you the game. That's at least turns it into a deckbuilding exercise and probably wouldn't be too unbalanced considering how little tutoring there is in this game.
