Do I pin Wave in my shop? I have 0 tokens, I do prefer to use my tokens atm for good cards that fit a lot of decks. I have a lot of the archetypal (Patriot, Cerebro, Sera) cards. Dunno if I should do Wave, or wait for Wong or She Hulk.

Dropped to 71 this morning and managed to get to 74 now without using Zabu or Surfer except for 1 match to quickly get a mission done.

I'm also desperate for some different cards, I almost bought Rockslide today. I did unlock Captain Marvel and that's great for Daredevil.

Wave is great to cheat Sera out early and allows for some higher cost cards in that deck. Depends on how much you play Sera. I would love some ramp. I have Sera, but I really need Psylocke or even Electro. I would play a ton more Sera with Wave. Plus Wave is a great disruption card now that Plunder Castle exists.

My personal favorite Wave play has been playing her on 5 as my opponent played Magik, then playing Zola to duplicate here and hose their big turn 7 play.

hey man black bolt can be effective for instance when i am playing my death deck - yes, me specifically, it's happened before and it can happen again!

(for real the one time i saw it, that's exactly what happened - and the black bolt wasn't generated or anything either)

It doesn't even help with that, Death only has her cost go down when cards are destroyed, not discarded

Gambit is a frustrating interaction because he discards the card from the person who plays and destroyed the card on the other side. I really wish it was one or the other.

I don’t know if this is common info or not but never retreat, always select retreat if opponent does.

This doesn't work against bluffs, though; once you've snapped, you cannot retreat the same turn unless your opponent snaps back.

I know what he means. You cannot use the retreat button at all after snapping unless your opponent snaps back. So if your opponent bluff snaps, he can't also retreat and so Retreat Later does the same as just retreating.

Well poo poo. Apparently Luke Cage even stops Hobgoblin from having his power doubled (and thus reduced).

Should've known really.

edit: that Wolverine change is such a huge buff for turn 6 Galactus. One extra power and half the time he gets another two, plus the possibility of even more if you manage to destroy him even more.

Outpowering a good Kazoo draw on TVA. Played countless games with Surfer, and he never felt close to this powerful. Not that it's news to anyone, but Zabu is a broken card.

Oh, I never tried that, but I guess he can only stop card text of the card IF you can play it and put it on the field? I've really only used him for Ebony Maw in a Zoo deck a few times, and I guess it makes sense because I still had to get Maw out by turn 3.

Skippy McPants
Mar 19, 2009

Yeah, Zero only triggers when the card is played, so any cards that have conditions to play—Infinaut, Magik, Maw after T3—still need those conditions met.

You can, however, play Infinaut if he's been Leeched, which is a real treat.

I just noticed the data-mined "Wolverine looking longingly at the photo of Jean" variant that's become a meme in the past several years has the wrong costume.

It should be his yellow and blue one, not his brown and orange one.

Quake would have killed Lockjaw on the rickety bridge except that Armor happened to pop out. (He was mid when Quake went off, he space stoned out).

A very normal game of Snap.

Yes? You should not bluff. Like, ever. No one bluffs in this game and if you snap you better have a good play.

Is it worth it to pin a Pool 4 card, in this case Shuri, early in Pool 3? I would need to save 1,700 tokens to get the card.

It feels like I’d be better off focusing on Pool 3 but I’m still super new to the game.

This deck is a lot of fun and has multiple combos. Widow Wave Odin locks their hands and wastes an entire turn dropping a 4 cost Bite while you drop a 6 cost, you have Psylocke/Wave into SheHulk + 6 drop, Wave, Doom, Odin, etc. You even have control layers with Cosmo/Armor into Aero and Magneto finishers.

She goes great with Moon Girl+Dino. Skip turn 5 to drop She-Hulk and Dino on the last turn. Or Moon Girl can sometimes give you double She-Hulks.

By the time you’ve got enough to buy her at series 4, she’ll have been downgraded to series 3 which I think is expected at the end of this month. Pin her and buy her then.

I would expect two cycles of drops in each series based on what happened this last go-round. End of February I would expect Orka, MBaku, Maria Hill, Colson , Helicarrier to drop to 3, Shuri end of March.

I think I'm a doctor, but that doesn't make me a doctor. This fancy avatar does.
I'm wondering if anyone else playing on Android has experienced this bug:

I keep the volume on the game off, all sliders down to the lowest. But anytime my phone connects to my car's Bluetooth (so far I haven't tested with any other device) it makes sound EVEN THOUGH the sliders are still all down/off. Loo ike...if I'm in my car waiting for my GF or something so I pmay a quick match, audio gets piped to my car's speakers. The sliders are all still down, they never moved. I have to manually live the master volume up then back down to re-mute it.

And it doesn't JUST playnaudio over my car's Bluetooth... the next time I open the game when not connected to my car, there's sound. And again...all sliders are all the way down. I have to go to settings and move the master volume up and then back down to re-mute it a second time. Really weird behavior.
