Made it to the 70s for the first time playing a fairly standard MODOK deck. Last game the Academy gave me a Shanna, which gave me a Bast, which turned my Apocalypse into a 3 power dead weight.

Feel like I *might* make it to 80... but I didn't think I'd hit 70, either, so we'll see. Haven't been hitting any Shuris, and just the very occasional Galactus.

I've almost got enough saved up for Kang, and then I'm throwing that fucker into every deck.

Why does this game show movement happening immediately if it doesn't actually happen until your turn comes up?

Mystique would replace Kaz if I had 'er, Scwitch is there for throne or or other limiting card space. Always play Maw: Debrii and Ultron play around him. If you're holding Ultron only play Debrii if itll clog up your opponents 3/4th slot. Deck is very easy to play otherwise, put ongoings behind cosmo, but if you're holding all 3 pumps just play those+Ultron instead.

The funniest Asteroid M interaction I ran into was that if you play a card into a Danger Room with Armor on it and it gets pulled to Asteroid M, it can still be destroyed. Presumably the other destroy locations work the same way. It might also depend on the location order? Not sure.

It will matter if Asteroid M is to the right of the Danger Room. Then the pew pew effect will happen before the pull. The other way round, though, Titania's Bra will pull the card out of the Danger Room first and then the Danger Room will shoot it in the now-unprotected location.

Not gonna lie, the "Here, take your free series 3 card!" thing in the shop is super not exciting when the only s3 card I'm missing is M'Baku. And every reset, it just keeps showing M'Baku.

I haven't hit the claim button yet because I don't even want the card, you can keep it

Physically you can't fall under 100 but cube donation time does stop after a while when you start facing bots. I just alternate like 4 decks now.

No matter what you do you reset to 70. Before it was good to throw cause you would lower your internal mmr meaning an easier climb next season. Theyre pushing a change so that your internal mmr snapshots when you enter infinite and that wont work anymore, no one knows if its active this season or not. If you climb in infinite you are capable of raising your internal mmr and that wont reset meaning that climbing in infinite is still kinda bad.

Cool. Insane tilt time for me the past 2 days. Just nothing works, mid ladder is filled with just the most random poo poo decks and/or completely boss draws that just destroy me. I end up with completely bricked hands by turn 4 on almost every deck and/or the card I need shows up at least 1 turn too late. Fallen from 69 to 60 in 2 days, just losing to everything even bots.

M'Baku isn't the worst series 3 card. There's some tiny utility there, I've seen it in Cerebro 2 decks for a surprise 6 power (+2 from cerebro, +2 from mystique) in an empty spot end of game.

Honestly at this point I'm changing nothing. Aero was played differently in this deck to begin with, she is more of an actual tech card here to begin with.

What do you mean here? She was always an actual tech card.

I still can't get over the fact that the deck they hit the hardest with nerfs was Deathwave :lol:

I just don't want to use my 'once per season' pull on him, assuming the timer just started. Maybe something else will get knocked down to s3 before the season long timer ends? I dunno, it just feels wrong to say "Yes please give me M'Baku"

I think it's a global timer, not a local timer. I pulled Wong yesterday or the day before and it said I had under 2 weeks to my next pull.

The series drop just happened, so it's probably going to be near the end of next season before another drop. As No Wave said, if you don't claim him for free then you're just going to get him in the next Reserve that contains a card. If you're Series 3 complete, that reserve will instead contain tokens. You're spending tokens by not claiming him. The once per season is literally once per season. You won't be able to claim another Series 3 card until the start of next season, once more cards enter Pool 3.
