Honestly playing galactus in infinite is giving me better instincts for playing it on ladder and I like using the versions with a bunch of wincons to make it a little more of a puzzle. Snazzy Frocks posted:It is extremely lame that magik behind dark dimension isn't a surprise turn 7 You can actually get a surprise turn 7 two ways. 1) Location change to it via like Scarlet Witch on 6 and 2) Doc Ock pulls Magik on turn 6. Both of these are considered "in turn" reveals whereas Dark Dimension doesn't get revealed until after the game is over.

Gain a few more collection levels and your old buddy Killmonger will be waiting for you in pool 2. then every deck will be Moon Girl / Devil Dino

Dark Dimension could be a fun feature location, but any strat that wants to use it for silly combos is just super vulnerable to Galactus instead

Attestant posted:Dark Dimension could be a fun feature location, but any strat that wants to use it for silly combos is just super vulnerable to Galactus instead Nobody should be playing Galactus, Dark Dimension is a free roll on their cubes today. Today is like the Peak it was fun for a bit but it converges on everyone running something busted into the featured or the counter deck to those busted strats. All your games get awful coin flippy. RevKrule posted:Honestly playing galactus in infinite is giving me better instincts for playing it on ladder and I like using the versions with a bunch of wincons to make it a little more of a puzzle. I'm at the point that I just hate playing Galactus and playing against it because the change is coming, and it all feels so pointless to practice the deck or counter it at all. I don't even really want them to change Galac, but since they are I'm just mentally done with the card. GarudaPrime fucked around with this message at 17:27 on May 28, 2023 |

Elektra and Enchantress aren't enough. I have to be so god drat aggressive with tech. The nice thing is all the Guardians cards are pool 1 though and it's not hard to predict which location is getting cards most turns!

Moon Girl + Dino decks have a lot of legs. Same basic principle, quite a few different cards to mix in there to jive with your own play style. One of my faves.

I dunno how they could change Galactus. It's not overpowered and is easily countered but it just feels particularly bad when it gets ya

If they change Galactus it's just caving to the whiners that can't recognise lines of play

If your an effect preventing your cards from being revealed ends during your revealed phase, are they revealed the same turn? What if the effect ends after your reveal phase?

The problem with Galactus is that the only recourse is to shoehorn in specific Galactus defense cards into every deck you own or retreating. Isn't the whole deal with Galactus that he has a herald that proceeds him? Maybe just have Silver Surfer scoot by at the beginning of the game to show your opponent is playing Galactus so you can decide if continuing play is worth it.

If you're losing more than one cube to Galactus it's your own fault usually. And I tend to get 2 or 4 cubes from over confident Galactus players

Yeah but it would be nice to know if the match is worth your time. Sometimes you get the Yondu Wolverine Doc Ock tells early enough but others its out of the blue and you get the big Knull Death combo at the end, which makes the entire lead up a huge waste of time.. Would be nice to know in advance if I should just retreat on 1 and find a real match.

Galactus still has a negative win rate. It does not win every game. If you stay after he comes out and you don't have a big power dump to contest with knull death why stay to lose?

Would be nice to know in advance if I should just retreat on 1 and find a real match. Galactus can't possibly win the game on the one-lane plan without either ramp or Shuri into Nimrod. Wave or Electro on 3 is therefore a strong tell that you should at least prepare for it. It's also nonsense to say that you have to shoehorn in specific defence cards to win. You just need to figure out where he's going to play. Some of the best cards against Galactus are staples: Cosmo, Storm, Spidey, Professor X, Aero, Polaris. Turn 3 Black Widow is frequently a retreat unless he drew his entire engine already, and the rock droppers can also stop him drawing what he needs.

really feels like gambit should require you to actually have a card to pitch when you drop him on wong/mystique instead of being a "discard 1 card to blast 4" situation hey

My vote for most toxic cards goes to Spider-Man. I don't know if I've ever seen one where the situation isn't rage inducing

Playing Galactus without Doc Ock, Spider-Man, or Death has been a very humbling experience. If all Galactus players had to play like I did I think the game would be in a better position

I'm back up to 54 if anyone cares. Think I'm getting the hang of HE, even playing against mostly other HE players. My only major losses have been against people hiding big Wong combos under Dark Dimension, Black Panther Zola or Gambit or whatever.
