Reaching infinite is not a measure of anything but time invested. If you can hit 50 you can hit infinite, because at that point you are all in the same matchmaking pool (also determined by collection level). Saw this confirmed when a 50s rank streamer came up against another steamer that was already infinite.

I'm just barely into p3 (and not running into too many people that have loads of p3 cards, so I guess they made it less of a hard cutoff) and pretty satisfied with just slapping Zabu into my Dino deck - if he hits one thing you're pretty happy, if he'd whiff you probably have something else to do.

iirc I'm only running three 4 drops rn - queen and moon girl of course, plus Shang chi

odds of pulling one by t6 are good

If anyone has infinite with these this season at 1k+ CL would love to see the deck! Every single streamer or player I've seen report hitting infinite this season at higher CL has done it with surfer/galactus/shuri/zabu.

Any and every deck can hit infinite. Knowing when to snap and when to retreat is absolutely much more important. I have a full pool 3 and a lot of pool 4 and 5 but I've never been able to make it to infinite because I'm absolutely awful at knowing when to press and when to pull back. One of my best performing and favorite decks doesn't have a single card higher than pool 2.
I hit infinite last season with dino+aero. I was a great player! Now I can't get past 80 with that deck because the S5 releases made me a worse player.

That's not a you problem. Decks that dont run surfer, zabu, shuri, or galactus are not as good.

I get that. But with only a few exceptions, I haven't made any decks. I've copied many off the internet though. It's been a long time since I played a deck builder and I'd like to actually get good at building decks instead of just fighting for rank. Right now I have cards I have never used and I've unlocked more cards I haven't used, and I'd like to actually use them.

Buff Collector which coincidentally buffs Dino. Taskmaster is just there to copy the Dinosaur in case I don't make a copy with Moon Girl.

Mostly I'm just trying to use cards that I don't normally and have a working deck. I never had any luck with Dino but I know a lot of people like him.

Weirdly I had better luck with Dino when I put Ronan in the same deck.

Omega Red feels really out of place in this deck and his +4 isn't that great. I've never seen him work well without both Iron Man and Onslaught to just absolutely demolish a lane.

This list is very top heavy, with no way to cheat anything out. You honestly don't have that much card generation, and the reason it feels like too much is probably that you don't start playing anything until turn 3 or even 4 in a lot of games. I'd definitely drop at least America; even in games where you can't pull off double dino, you've got enough potential turn 6 plays that at least one of them should pretty much always be available.

Chavez is supposed to be good for consistency but she's always felt kinda awkward except for dump decks. I'm thinking of dropping her, Red and Queen but I just don't know who to replace her with.

I don't have Coulson unfortunately. Or Quinjet or Maria Hill.

I used to have a deck with Dino, Ronan and Sandman. It used Korg, Baron Mordo and Maximus to help inflate the opponent's hand. Maybe I'll make that deck again.

Hmm, just lost a very weird match. Project Pegasus on round 1, opponent drops Blue Marvel on 2nd lane, which turns out to be Onslaught's Citadel. Then on Turn 5, they....play Blue Marvel again? I ended up losing to Iron Man, so I'm not upset, just confused.

Beast is a really fun card and I like using him when I can but I've been messing around with Collector/Dino lists lately and you are constantly coming up against the handsize limit, even with Quinjet on the field reducing the cost of cards you add. Especially if you're running the higher-cost card gen like Nick Fury.

You sure the first one wasn't a Morph and you didn't see it come down? I think that's why Snap Tracker shows it with a modified cost of +2, because Morph is a 3-cost card that turned into a 5-cost.

Yeah, maybe I should drop Beast and just do a bounce deck with him and Falcon. Mind posting 1 of your decks? I've never been able to get Dino to feel effective.

I did put together a Sera deck with a Lady Sif-Ghost Rider-Infinaut combo. It's pretty fun. I also have a Magneto deck that I just unlocked Polaris for. Now I just need Aero for the full set.

Stick with what feels good and what you're having fun with. If you want to try other styles it's probably worth looking at ramp if you have Electro/Psylocke/Wave (in that order of goodness for ramp). I tend to think of a card and then search around what decks use that card. Most of the snap sites also have things that synergize with the card too which helps think of decks.

Since this deck is so reliant on big t7 drops I run both Scarlett witch and Rhino in it. Which definitely mitigates the location problem. Also America Chavez is a good way to slightly skew the rng in your favor (your deck size essentially counts as 1 less for turns 0-5)

As an aside it is funny skipping turn 6 and seeing a leader completely whiff. :bisonyes:


I'm also fooling around with a thor/wong/odin/Jane foster deck that while it isn't great it is fun when it pops off.
