I wonder how Galactus would fare if only the locations were ruined, invalidating them for scoring, but leaving any cards in play for the sake of ongoing effects. Might give Super Skrull an actual niche. Not saying I've thought about it a lot, but one of my least favorite things is how much free advantage you get for Death and Knull

Have any of you Shuri-havers had the chance to play with Sauron? A Shuri deck took me to infinite this season, and obtaining that big ol Pteranodon seems like a logical progression for that deck archetype to take.

My only two selfish things on this: 1) I wanted to hit infinite quick (3-sh days) without mirror competition; I did share my list previously but not the writup) 2) I will not be posting this on Reddit or anywhere else to keep a bit of containment on it for the overall meta. edit: 3) the appreciation, I guess, too.

The Sean posted:I'm looking forward to it but I don't have it yet. I am as well! The other card I have been considering for that deck is Ghost. I feel like Ghost may be the better buy, since it is applicable to more decks “and” helps out the Shuri decks by making it harder for them to get hit by Shang-Chi

Going to balance out my bitching a bit by saying how much fun I’ve had with MODOK. It’s really renewed my enjoyment of the game and I’ve never felt confident in snapping and retreating as I have this season so far. I Mained sera surfer the past two seasons and make mid 90s with pretty boring deck but this one I’m not caring nearly as much about climbing

Kingpin is a fav of mine, pair him with aero or magneto (or even polaris) and stomp the poo poo out of suckers on t6. I was just thinking today he’s be quite effective against the dracula heavy decks you see a lot of paired with magneto.

Kaddish posted:Yeah, C3 with Valkrie and Bast. Can't wait to get Bast as I have Valkrie already. Basically decks dodging Shang Chi with Priority dodge Valkyrie also for free. I'm considering Invisble Woman in C3 because Valkyrie after the last turn would be Actually Good. Speaking of: unnerf leader. I don't even own him, he just made the meta less turn 6 heavy. I shouldn't have to retreat because I didn't predict the Shuri lane with Cosmo after Sunspot pass pass.

Hot Dog Day #82 posted:Have any of you Shuri-havers had the chance to play with Sauron? A Shuri deck took me to infinite this season, and obtaining that big ol Pteranodon seems like a logical progression for that deck archetype to take. He is a side grade to the deck at best. I now belive he's possibly even downgrade. The thing is he opens up some lines of play that let you win shuriless games, but he turns off two very important cards that you will miss (unless you don't play them to begin with) Those cards are armor and cosmo. I kind of feel like the deck doesn't need more consistency in making two 30ish power lanes. It needs more consistency in protecting that game plan. I'm kind of a weirdo though in that I don't like running Zola. My deck is Iceman, Sunspot, armor, lizard, Mr F, cosmo, shuri, skull, aero, task, SH, and Chavez. Instead of going for a task or zola play turn 6, I like playing for a Task or SH/Aero play. I feel like Shuri enables the deck but Aero turn 6 just wins games.

kaschei posted:I just got both of these and Bast is way more useful. The "Big turn 6" decks are now "HUGE turn six" decks with the leader nerf. It is hard to lose priority to those in a situation where Wasp-1 drop-Valkyrie will turn things around. Bast makes Iron Man into Mystique a very powerful alternative when red skull, soul stone, or locations make Cerebro dicey. Valkyrie does nothing to Dino, buffs darkhawk and morbius, so there are situations where she is worse than just playing Sentinel much less two 3 power cards (or Mystique + another card).

FlamingLiberal posted:I don’t have Shuri, but I’ve literally seen Sauron in a game once since he was released I saw a guy (who was rank 260 yesterday?!?) use him and Shuri and it made me realize that he turns off _all_ abilities in both your deck AND your hand for cards that have ongoing. That seems broken as hell for Red Skull, Mary, ... and Ebony Maw who turns into a straight 7 power for 1 energy, playable whenever you want. It's going to be very hard to resist getting him if he shows up in my shop before Thanos.

GarudaPrime posted:Yes! I dropped 6k tokens on him and don't regret it, but.... The lack of Cosmo or Armor is what makes me hesitant about pulling the trigger (thanks for the great response, by the way!). It sounds like my deck is more aggressive than yours, but even still, not having Cosmo as my safety blanket would take some getting used to. Aero and She Hulk as a turn six play is very interesting! I fell into a groove pretty fast with my deck, so I didn’t do much experimenting with it while I climbed. Now that I am infinite I’ll give that a shot! I used Captain Marvel in my list, mainly because I had never used the card before - but also because I wanted a way to reach lanes outside of a super telegraphed Armon Zola. I think that Vision is probably the better card for that, but I am not good enough at the game to micromanage him haha. My list was: # (1) Sunspot # (1) Zero # (1) Titania # (2) Lizard # (3) Cosmo # (4) Shuri # (4) Moon Girl # (5) Taskmaster # (5) Captain Marvel # (5) Doctor Octopus # (5) Red Skull # (6) She-Hulk # eyJDYXJkcyI6W3siQ2FyZERlZklkIjoiQ29zbW8ifSx7IkNhcmREZWZJZCI6IlN1bnNwb3QifSx7IkNhcmREZWZJZCI6IlRhc2ttYXN0ZXIifSx7IkNhcmREZWZJZCI6IlNoZUh1bGsifSx7IkNhcmREZWZJZCI6IkNhcHRhaW5NYXJ2ZWwifSx7IkNhcmREZWZJZCI6Ik1vb25HaXJsIn0seyJDYXJkRGVmSWQiOiJEb2N0b3JPY3RvcHVzIn0seyJDYXJkRGVmSWQiOiJUaXRhbmlhIn0seyJDYXJkRGVmSWQiOiJTaHVyaSJ9LHsiQ2FyZERlZklkIjoiWmVybyJ9LHsiQ2FyZERlZklkIjoiTGl6YXJkIn0seyJDYXJkRGVmSWQiOiJSZWRTa3VsbCJ9XX0= #

Snazzy Frocks posted:i'm still in pool 2 but i keep getting matched against this guy with a wong that he always has on turn 4 collection level is only part of what goes into determining matchups and there's no segregation by pool access, so end of pool 2/start of pool 3 can have some real "well gently caress me I guess" moments against people who opened well (or tanked MMR) but wong matches up poorly vs. any interaction whatsoever, so if you keep seeing it just slot Cosmo or Enchantress

lol. Peak swapped power on Jubilee. Pulled down Infinaut. Turn 3 they play wave and I say gently caress it to 50:50 Infinaut and Jubilee for Zola. Zola grabs Jubilee who pulls down Panther and Devil Dino. Bifrost moves my Jubilees into the Panther lane and Infinaut, Devil Dino and Zola into the same lane. Turn 5 I drop Shuri at which point my opponent had seen enough just before I could Odin the chonky boy lane but after we had both snapped. This game is so dumb sometimes.
