I usually emote I’m losing and then fist bump and snap t1, I feel like people usually get it.

People tend to be more chill now with emotes I'm noticing, but normally when I see "I'm losing!" is when my opponent has a meta deck, a great hand and great locations and they are about to dunk on me.

And unrelatedly, I've only been kicking around in the 50's, but the few times I've seen Galactus they have not been able to pull it off. The most memorable time was when I was running a Death/Moongirl deck. They played Galactus and snapped and I dropped 2 Deaths and an Amy and won handily.

So how much gold a week should I expect to be coming in with f2p other than the season pass? I've got about 8k saved and trying to figure out how close I'll be to getting both bundles or if I should just get the more efficient cheaper one

1000 per month from the season pass
500 per month if you hit 90
Several hundred from collector’s reserves and season caches, varying depending on how much you play
Maybe some from a monthly event or general rewards

Call it 500-600 gold per week maybe if you’re a consistent, successful and fairly active season pass player?

I did find out if you play a Scarlet Witch on turn 6 and get the "No cards are revealed this turn" location... cards will still be revealed that turn.

It's a little funky, but there's an End of Game phase after the last turn ends, and they're revealed then. (If there was a Sunspot, it would gain power and then more cards would flip).

Interesting! It looks like when there's multiple Baxter Buildings, the one in the middle takes priority and can affect the one on the right. This makes sense with how the game generally works, so that's neat.

Finally got to 60 this season on the back of someone who snapped the second the first location was revealed which was Cloning Vats. Second location was Lechuguilla. They put down his first card as Morbius on the unrevealed third location. That location turned out to be...Machine World.

I played Cosmo as my first card on cloning vats and got lucky on the 50-50 so I shut down....their Gambit, but they got a second one! So you know I had to put Cosmo down on Lechuguilla to shut down their Swordmaster. Turn 5 before they finally started getting desperate and knocked one of my Cosmos out with their cloned Gambit the the damage is absolutely done. Turn 6 was all about them desperate to put power on the board.

I almost snapped back but I figured they probably felt it was still winnable and didn't want to scare them off since I needed all 4 cubes to push me over the top.

My month long struggle is over and for it I got....loving Pixel Iron Man. I'll probably do a little playing tomorrow but I can hold all 6 upcoming dailies if I have to until to keep myself above 60.

Yeah it’s important to know that locations resolve left to right too.

Signed, the dude I played against who didn’t understand what was about to happen when Bifrost moved his weaker board on the left spot onto Hala on the middle spot.

Notable exception: Starlight Citadel always resolves first no matter where it is. (In case I got the name slightly wrong, it's the one that rearranges the locations on turn 4.)

Look very closely at the location you played Zabu to. Enchantress deactivated Sandman correctly.

Season resets tonight (2/6) at 10- PM eastern?

I hit 80 yesterday wondering if it's worth it to try and claw my way to 90 for the extra gold...

Also, curious what everyone else thinks is the WORST card design of the BASE cards?
My vote is Coulson. What is that pose?


It looks like he's sort of doing a "Charlie's Angels" type of thing....but why is his tie floating in midair with a weird crease in it? Why is his back pant leg clinging so perfectly to his calf muscle?

With the Surfer nerf potentially on its way I'm having to shore up side decks. Recently I pulled Venom, so today I'm trying to figure out if he has a place in either of my Death-related decks and.. I don't know if he does. Thoughts? I'm just not sure where Venom is used vs Carnage, who seems to benefit more from eating squirrels and Hood and such.





Any other changes you'd recommend? I'm pretty happy with both honestly. One weaker link is Moon Girl. She doesn't always show up when I need her, or she shows up when things haven't gone entirely my way and her doubling up doesn't help as much. I know DeathWave is probably superior but I like Wolverine shenanigans with his buff and don't feel like he has a place in DeathWave so when I'm in the mood to play a destruction deck I bounce between the two of them.

Any fun Agatha decks? A lot of the online advice is to use a discard deck to get rid of her quickly, which feels like it's defeating the purpose.

I think the idea is usually to get Venom big by t5 (which may include eating your 8 power Carnage, 6 power Winter Soldier, etc) and then using Taskmaster or Arnim Zola to put that power in another lane possibly along with Death.

It’s okay but unless you have locations that really work for you or you Deathwave Death out early, I don’t think he ends up particularly chunky compared to some other options if you have Shuri/Wong.

There specifically isn't another deck Agatha is good in because you can't build around the ai being awful, but you can build around her starting in your opening hand.
The only other use is to put her in a deck that fulfils the requirements of your daily quests and mash End Turn (rip cubes though)

No, that’s it. She’s marginally better than Hulk points wide but has the disadvantage of being stupid and running your deck. Discarding Agatha then bringing back with Ghost Rider/Hela gives you the points while minimising the disadvantages.

I’d prefer to use Infinaut for the same purpose though.

If I had to guess, a general "good cards" archetype deck (basically highest power cards at every cost level) probably does well with her. Playing Agatha is like playing ego every game. The game makes poor decisions on interactions and usually wants to play the "best" card it can at that cost level.

I changed out deathlok with venom with good results.

Like Kaddish said, if you have Zola then venom is good too.
