Posting about Marvel stuff in another thread made me realize we still don't have Man-Thing!

Wonder what his power would be...Imma guess maybe like a 5/6 or 6/8 and has some sort of "destroy opponent's card at this location" power. Maybe destroy their lowest cost card? Or a random 3 or 4 cost card?

Yeah, Mystique and Rogue are unique in that they're On Reveals that become Ongoing. So you can Mystique a Mystique, assuming the first one successfully copied an ability, or Mystique a Rogue...but you can't Absorbing Man a Rogue because by the time he resolves, she no longer HAS an "On Reveal" ability to be copied.

Also, someone in a Discord I'm in showed this image that I think is from some datamined stuff?

Your killer track.




My Destroy deck has my best variants, so I play that one a bunch even though it's frequently ruined by unlucky RNG. Deadpool riding Nyan-cat always gets emotes from opponents, and the luchador Taskmaster is a lot of fun even if he doesn't get much use.

The most wins I've gotten this season are from a barebones pool 1 & 2-only zoo deck. I dunno if people aren't expecting it or if the game is putting me against lower-level opponents because of it.

My deck this season has been the surfer girls deathwave. I haven’t really changed any of the cards, I know how it fares against every matchup, I know what to expect. I’ve switched to other decks as I get new cards, because this is a game, but I consistently go back to it when I want to climb some ranks.

I picked it last season because I got Wave, I like destroy decks, and I have a couple cool variants for it.

Whats this deck? Im interested

I'm sure you've seen it. The name predates silver surfer so its a little confusing now.

She Hulk
Squirrel Girl
Wave
Dethlok
Carnage
Bucky
Aero
Shang Chi
Yondu
Killmonger
Iceman (usually now after a streamer made it popular)

I still dont think it's as good as people think and you can make a ton of piles based on abusing wave+she hulk+aero without having to play all the destroy stuff.

Look at my DeathWave a few posts up, it's basically that. Wave, Aero, SheHulk, and Death are the main bits, plus stuff to kill to get Death primed. Wave on 5 allows you to drop SHulk and Death on the same turn, or either + Aero for board control.

Edit - beaten here too, as is tradition

Enchantress is the tech spot, but I honestly just keep her there most of the time because she fucks up my hated decks (mostly discard) a fair bit

As others have mentioned, the perfect turn 5>6 is wave into She Hulk, death, and a third card, either aero or enchantress usually.

So...Orka is hard-coded to be the most common Pool 4 card, right? How else do so many people seem to have him (well, have but not play based on complaints here and other online spaces .)

I guess I pulled She-Hulk first, but he seems to be the one I see talked about most when people complain about what cards they got.

Anyway, I got Orka and now I feel compelled to make a deck around him...maybe with an Electro/Sandman ramp? Even then, ugh, only 2 power more than a more useful card like Hulk or Magneto or Death.

its probably just a product of people wanting to vent about getting orka as their first series 4 card or getting orka in general even

I don't have Orka yet and I have Helicarrier as my only current tier-4 card (not counting Black Panther and others from season passes)

I might have pulled Luke Cage when he was still tier 4. I'm pretty sure I got She-Hulk and Titania after they went to tier 3.

Just think of Orka as a Chavez with potential extra power. Just running Chavez is usually better though.

Now that I have Aero, I was able to netdeck this fun little Dino deck that people find works well (I think I’ve seen variations in this thread too?) and now I’m finally climbing consistently out of the 30s

I love being able to sneak out a win with a double She-Hulk or an absolute bastard Aero sacrifice (drawing their last turn play into a lane they’re already winning) when I can see them starting to play around a Dino.

Definitely burned through the low mmr opponents in the last 48 hours… hopefully I don’t lose too much steam before I can reliably spot Galactus/Knull being set up. (Only seen it once, but I’m barely above 40 now)

I like being able to burst out cards, I like little strong combos and I like confusing my opponent if possible. Here's a little double move, double destruction combo control deck I threw together if anyone wants to play with it. I would absolutely drop the Bucky and Carnage for Miles Morales if I had him.

Another one is that Agatha players always have one more card in their starting hand, right? I think Thanos players have a similar tell as well.
