I made a deck based on stealing the opponent's deck away from them and then played Cable in Bar Sinister, along w/ a Turn 1 Yondu and a Turn 3 Mantis that took the opponent's Gamora.

Doom isn't even as good as Ultron in buff decks. His best use is to lock up Flooded lanes in Storm decks. Overall he's fair because he usually can't win a lane by himself.

Opponent pulled some bullshit on the last turn to tie a location that made me so angry that I didn't do the math on the remaining ones properly, didn't even see the bright blue VICTORY message that covered the screen, and was fuming until I got out of the match and saw my rank go up instead of down. Passed 80 for the first time!

This one is quite fun, you really only need wave/sif/ghost rider so you have two ways to cheat her out early, once you do that it’s just dropping big dudes:

Yep, she'll always get discarded by Sif or will play herself if allowed by Wave. About 25% of the time (it feels like, i'm sure someone knows the math) you won't draw either of your 3-cost cards by T3 and that's pretty much your cue to retreat. She makes baffling location choices that sometimes bait out snaps from opponents.

It may be worth packing enchantress instead of shang chi, because the deck definitely will not beat the wong combo (but you could just resign too I suppose).

In that deck, the only other 6-cost card is America Chavez, who isn't going to be in your hand for a 3-drop Sif.

I guess an Iceman or something can make something else a 6-coster right?

it can't be a 6 cost because of Sif...and Agatha can screw up lanes so Namor and Warpath are probably bad choices. Gamora, Abomination, Vision...Klaw all would work. i think the stupid answer is that i had him in there for the vibranium event

Yeah, I'm just making the point so nobody throws a bunch of extra 6-drops into an Agatha deck.

Black Panther is just straight inferior to Gamora unless you have significant hand buffing or a way to proc him twice. He's not even as good as Abomination by himself, and I'd play Aero over him ten times out of nine.

I hate how sloppy the wording is on things. Cloning Vats says when you play a card here, you add a copy to your hand. Someone had Kraven on the site already, then played Hulk Buster, and after everything resolved they got an extra 6 power Kraven in their hand. That's in no way a copy of the card they played.

I mean it's not usually inconsistent, it works the same way every time (you get a copy of the card on the site after it reveals and effects are resolved, not a copy of the card you played), but that's not what the location text says! And in that example the Hulk Buster was what he played and the buffed Kraven is what he got. It irks me on the principle of it.

That reminds me, I hit a bug last night where I had an unbuffed Deadpool on Xandar (so it had 2 power), killed it with a Killmonger, and it returned to my hand with 0 power. No idea why that happened but I would assume that's not intended behavior.

I'm deliberately staying in pool 1 for a while* and I think Killmonger is becoming my favorite card.
Hold on a second, I hear people saying, isn't Killmonger pool 2? How can it be your favorite card if you don't have it, can't have it and nobody you play with can have it?
gently caress squirrels and Kazar decks, that's how.

Speaking of interactions, if you throw Beast on Jessica Jones the same turn you play her, she doesn't get the +4 if you avoid the next turn there.

Which is probably expected, since she's not in play, I was mostly curious

I can only speak for myself, but I use Killmonger a lot in pool 2. You see a fair amount of Sunspots, Agent 13's, Nightcrawlers and Antmans (Antmen?)

Bear in mind I'm treading water for a week at about 60-63 so, I could be using a lovely deck (Destroy). Although I think I'm not climbing due to not taking more chances and snapping when I feel I have >50% confident at a win.

Killmonger+Nova is straight up op if your deck can fit it. If KM kills a single enemy one-drop he's as good as any other 3 drop already in terms of stats. And this is on top of autowinning vs sloppy sunspot players. There arent any 3 cost jessica joneses out there that make the tech 3 costs cosmo and killmonger expensive to run which is why they're so ubiquitous, and on top of it monger+nova is strong even with no enemies to hit.

Would welcome any thoughts on this kind of all-around/control deck I've been playing around with. Just went over 600 CL and have actually been holding my own with this:

1. Sunspot
1. Iceman
2. Angela
2. Armor
3. Storm
3. Groot
4. Shang-Chi
4. Spider-Man
4. Jessica Jones
5. Iron Man
5. Professor X
6. America Chavez

I feel like I've got stuff in there which can help me out against movement, destroy and high-power decks. I think the only card that hasn't been pulling it's weight so far is Iron Man, mainly because I like a turn 5 Spider-Man or Professor X, not sure what would be a good replacement though. So far my only other Pool 3 cards are Colleen Wing, Goose, Hela, Moon Night, Mystique & Yellowjacket.

I think mostly my successes have just been down to getting more experience of when to recognize whether my position around turn 3/4 is good or not, which probably applies to most decks anyway I guess.

So that's the 16 cards we knew about introduced. The token shop is going to make a lot of imbalance, though. Series 4 and 5 will be much rarer for players still padding their collections out, but people at 100% will be offered one every eight hours and players over 3k CL - which nearly all 100%ers are - are getting 12000 tokens. Although S4 and S5 cards cost 3000 and 6000 tokens respectively, it's still a huge leapfrog.

Full details here, including a visual spoiler for all the new cards at the bottom:

https://www.marvelsnap.com/newsdetail?id=7168728561379973894

The most important thing is that you really want to get to CL1000 by the end of the season if you can. That's where the starting token award jumps from 3k to 6k.

Ah bastard I am at just the wrong CL (594). Annoying that 500 to 999ers are effectively not getting compensation for the caches they've opened.

The bump is massive tho. You only get 1250 collector tokens going from 600 -> 1000 naturally so getting 3k extra is a lot. Guess I'll need to make my mind up to spend this gold or not soon given how the store/refreshes work.

If you played Jubilee to get a card, then the second Jubilee pulled two cards, you didn't have any cards left in your deck.

Looks like they’re implementing this in a pretty reasonable way. A rotating shop isn’t my favorite, but the ability to pause the shop when something cool shows up is great.

He's pretty toxic ngl. Instant ties on death's domain and luke's bar.

I dont think ppl realize how insanely, insanely slow pool 4 progress is tho. With a full pool 3 collection it's 1000CL per card.

EDIT: wow I did not see that it was 22% to get 400 tokens my bad. That makes it 450CL per card which is still a ton ofc but it's at least one a month which is something.

I would replace Groot, which is not a great card imo. Could go in several different directions - Lizard/Mojo/Mysterio for better stat value, or Mr Fantastic (also normally a 3/6) to bump power in inaccessible lanes, or Cosmo to shut down Wong shenanigans
