I just learned that Surfer doesn't care about your Wong-Odin combo, and I will always snap back on 6 with this deck.

Also Leader players snapping on 1 will never stop being funny. :D

I’m 100 tokens away from getting my pinned she hulk. I read she hulk isn’t worth it anymore. Is that true? If so what should I spend Mg tokens on. They are super hard to save up for.

She's absolutely worth it. She enables a lot of fun decks and tricky plays. As said, the only reason to not buy her now is because she'll be 2k tokens cheaper if you wait till the 31st.

\/ that's what I'm recommending, if it wasn't clear: wait 2 weeks and get her for 1k.

I'm not sure, there are at least 10 series 3 cards that enable more decks than She-Hulk, probably more. No contest between having 3 high-impact cards vs 1. You'd have to be in a pretty specific spot to want to spend the extra 2000 tokens just to have her two weeks early.

Got 3000 tokens and am holding 2000 to ensure I get Brood and Sera if/when they come through, but have Leader in the shop now. Anyone got opinions if it's still as good of a troll card? They still haven't announced any intended large-scale changes for him yet right?

He’s a good card, not an instant win card or archetype defining one. If you have other pool 3 cards that he plays nice with, go for it.

I personally passed on him when they said they’d look into a rework. Then I got him from a collectors cache and proceeded to get my rear end beat repeatedly.

Leader fails to a lot of decks I play, specifically things like Surfer and T6 zoo decks. Probably fails to last turn Cerebro as well, but I don't have Cerebro yet to try. He's not the instant troll win people think.

Hell, I had someone drop Electro to get Leader T5 and Odin T6 and all he got for his trouble was Maximus, Fantastic and Surfer. He won 1 lane. :)

Basically if your opponent has a huge 6 drop, Leader can be good. But Zola, Surfer, Secret Zoo and a lot of other combinations just make him a chump.

Super Skrull is sneaky with Savage Land location. Lotta people running Patriot or Zoo decks that you can just mirror their big power boosters.

I wouldn't recommend getting it in the shop but if you've got him already, it might be worth trying to tech him in for the next couple days.

Also the token shop is incredibly frustrating the deeper you go. Literally the last 3 days the shop has just been swapping between Maria Hill and Orka.

Hell Cow is nice but nothing beats Colleen being able to target your Swarm. It's what takes the deck from just ok to actually viable to climb with.

Sif + Ghost Rider is one of the big combos or backup plans if you don't draw Drac. I'd drop Hulk and run Chavez for that guaranteed big play too, since you'll be able to drop 3 4 costs with zabu in play, making Ghost and Drac a big surprise together with a guaranteed revive of Infi/Magneto + 9 power Dracula and whatever else you drop (Shang, White, etc). I don't think Sword Master has much place in the deck though.

The Sif+Ghost combo is fun when you can pull it off, but just as often Sif discards Apocalypse and Ghost Rider has nothing to pull. I found that running Chavez means I'm more likely to pull Chavez with Dracula, but without I'm almost Guaranteed to pull a minimum of 12 power.

The combo is strong, but the deck still works with Jessica Jones or Rescue in place of Ghost Rider. I'd say Jubilee is more necessary than him.

All 3 decks work slightly different. I found that Chavez here made it less consistent for me to dump my hand by T6, though I could probably drop Gamora if I wanted to.

All 3 decks work slightly different, even if they all share the same core principle.

Yeah, any kind of heavy 4 drop could work. Drax, Namor, Gamora, even Spider Woman. Lady Sif into Ghost Rider is fun, but the other heavy cards are there in case you don't manage the combo.

Savage Land is only Hot for another three hours.

Also I would be very cautious when playing Super Skrull, as it copies some ongoing effects that you may not want. I've seen people accidentally lock themselves out of a lane because their opponent had Ebony Maw, for example. And you definitely don't want to play it early, because while 4/2 is a pretty nice stat line for Iron Man it's not so nice for Red Skull.

It really is. I don't even have Maximus or Polaris and it's still a steady climber. Would be sketchy without Brood though, as well as the sheer power, it enables a lot of tricks you don't have access to otherwise (Luke's Bar, Death's Domain/other destroy locations, etc).

Since it'll take you about a year to earn 5000 tokens anyway, probably a moot point.

Surfer will be dropping to S4 in three weeks, so no. Even if you were S3 complete it would probably take longer than that to earn 5k tokens.

We've seen now how quickly cards will drop, and it looks like no card will be spending more than two or three months in S5 apart from Galactus and Thanos. Darkhawk and Sentry only came out 4 weeks ago, but it's very likely that the March drops along with Surfer will be the pair of them plus Knull because no other cards have been in the series longer. With cards also dropping to S3 at the same rate, we should expect to see every new card become available to F2Ps four or five months after release, six at most. My personal thought on that basis is that you should save tokens so you can grab something new and obviously powerful when it appears, but not worry too much about pinning anything.
