So I bit the bullet and bought Bast in the Token Shop. I've been trying this Negative Surfer deck:




And......I'm losing. I honestly feel like I am not finding my footing with this deck. I know how to use Bast early and Psylocke into a turn 3 Negative, but nothing is lining up. It's always been bad rng due to locations or card draw. What am I doing wrong?

See here my only cards prior to 6 were Cosmo, Zabu, Sera. No Negative and I dumped 100 power on 6

I would love to try coulson in surfer zabu. I climbed to infinite with Maria Hill she was great though Dino piles will probably not be as strong this season.

Attuma has been disappointing but yeah I'd agree that Helicarrier is the worst one.

That's interesting, I've got him but wouldn't have thought of that. What's your list look like?

Also I really like Attuma in a Zero/Zabu/Dracula deck. But I also like Invisible Woman way too much so anything that works with her, I'm all over.

One time Captain America went back in time to try to save Bucky by stopping Zemo and it was only foiled by Janet falling asleep and pressing a button to bring them back to the present.

Another time she was almost defeated by a bird. Not even a large bird.

In summation, yeah she rules.

Part of the Negative experience is commiserating with each other about times you started with all of your zero power cards in hand. That and times you had a great potential setup, and then drew Iron Man at the start of the turn you were about to play Mr. Negative.

I think negative decks are a giant meme. People said they were good and they released bast a card that makes them ridiculously better and they're still not good.

Not sure if series 4 cards also work on a pity timer, because I got Titania and M'Baku within 8 chests of each other, so it would take a while before the third pity timer is in sight.

Every set of 40 chests guarantees 1 series 4 card.

You can also just randomly pull them sooner.

They were probably hoping to abuse the Vats with On Reveals and Cosmo shot that in the foot.
Or figured that you were going to drop another one on another lane and make it that much harder to work their deck.

Or they just decided gently caress You, That's Why.
I know I'm tempted to do that sometimes if I see Cosmo, especially since I'm prone to assuming Cosmo users are mostly bots.

Well, you can pull the card early in each set of 40, with the 1st chest being the earliest.

But not sooner or more than that.

Zola is great in my Knull deck. Ideally I use Electro to get Knull out early and then Zola him (which counts as a destroy so the dupes are both doubled), and if not I use him on Venom which usually hits hard too.
One of my top three interactions was the time I have a suped up Knull and Zolaed him away turn 6, then the opponent played Shang Chi on the now 0 power spot

Ooo I didn’t realize that Zola counted as a destroy, that’s interesting! I have all of the tools for him (outside of Knull, which I am jealous of) - so maybe it is time! I haven’t seen him run in many destroy decks, but I guess he would slot in well with a 0 cost Death…

He does count as a destroy, as every Zola player has no doubt discovered by trying to play him on Wakanda or an otherwise armoured location.

Until they rework the text, he's still a top tier card. They're dropping him to 6-3 but honestly, that's really not that much. it's still a case of if you're ahead or only barely behind in one lane, you can sneak out a win.

I did not realize I could counter Zola with Armor. That’s amazing.

My Dino She Hulk Pile isn’t performing very well this season. Beyond everyone running ongoing hate, folks are locking down lanes more with Spider-man. You can’t afford to wait for a big pop on five and six unless you have Leader.

I’ll need to scrounge together another deck.

I just got crossbones and it seems like a pretty good card but I don’t see it in many lists? He has a good stat line and the conditional seems pretty easy to work around. Seems like it would be especially good with Zabu.

Actually, going to just take Jessica Jones out of my Zabu deck and give it a whirl.

It's never wrong to Ms Marvel emote when you beat someone who plays Leader.

Yesterday I had someone Leech me while playing an OBVIOUS Patriot deck (like I loving put him down on T3 and Mystique T4, what did you think I was playing?) and then snapped after they played him.

You don't need Armor, he gets destroyed if another card is at his location "at the end of your turn" and Invisible Woman reveals the cards "at the end of the game" which comes after both players take their final turns

I didn't like her in Surfer decks previously, but IMO after playing around for a while, you really want Sera here. You can do basically nothing all game as long as you get Sera and Zabu on the board, and then drop Brood, Wong, Surfer, and another 4-cost of your choice (often Absorbing Man) wherever you need them on T6. The blowouts are pretty insane.
