My free premium variant is... Dan Hipp Bast. Which looks fun, but I don't really use that card much.

Dan Hipp Black Widow. I also bought the Hipp Zola in the shop today.

I'm this close to all all Hipp deck, though it would have no synergy and be God-awful. I think I've got like 9 or 10 Hipp cards.

Got to the last match of the last battle of Infinity conquest and lost...god drat that's frustrating. I don't care that much, but it is annoying getting that close and failing the ENTIRE conquest track.

Especially since it was one of those times where the other person's deck made no sense*, but I was getting such bad draw + location, and they were getting good draw and location (there was a turn with Orchis Forge, that I had to play on due to other location restrictions and they also played Master Mold, so I got no draw next couple turns.)

*it was a weird Ronan + Surfer deck. The cards I recall seeing were:
Armor
Cosmo
Master Mold
Silver Surfer
Brood
Maximus
Legion
Ronan
Iron Lad
Absorbing Man

Not sure what else there was, I think those are all the cards I saw.

my premium was Rock He-Kim's Ultron



I love ultron and now have 3 variants + base, but I don't play him anymore.

Getting ultron as my first S3 card made the grind so much easier.

I need Kitty and I have two caches left, but one-in-three odds are loving dire. Might just buy her with tokens.

I always wondered when this would start to happen. Kitty is so insanely good and it kinda rules now that they gave her to so many of us for free.

I earned the anime Wolverine from the Conquest shop, then went to my inbox for the premium variant - and pulled the Weapon X Wolverine variant. :smith:

(edit: I like them both, but immediately pulling Weapon X guarantees I'll never play anime Wolverine)

If you were to start today and decide you wanted to pay your way to be s3 complete it would cost you about $3000 more or less if you maximized efficiency

That is unless there's a limit to paying gold for upgrades

That's the one I got too, the way they get super specific about naming some variants is interesting. I just saw a blade variant that I guess was a version of the thing? It was called "young thing variant"

As suspected, I do have enough Hipp variants to make an entirely Hipp deck, but...uh...it wouldn't do so good.

Wasn't sure I wanted Silver Samurai but next month is all cards I have or 3,000 token things I want so I opened up a cage experimentally and got it in one.

Threw together a Zabu "Good Cards" deck by swapping out the Dark Hawk package and Silver Samurai seems like a solid addition to that archetype. Having a second, predictable way to turn on Stature is pretty good.

Haha, had an opponent find out the hard way you don't want to Zola a Taskmaster.

:ssh: His On-Reveal still goes off, and the last card you would have played when you put Zola on a Taskmaster...is a 0-power Zola.

Edit: Wait, I was slightly wrong, it doesn't copy the Zola. But he played a 1 power Vibranium right before the Zola (T7) and both copies copied THAT. So I guess you CAN Zola a TM as long as the TM was itself, the last card played.

This is correct; if you play TM, then Zola said TM, the TM tries to scan itself but itself no longer exists so it just keeps its current power.

Lol, I know complaining about the weird bugs/unintended effects in this game is sort of a moot point, but even OUTSIDE the main game it's silly.

If you're in your card collection, and you filter by the ability "Move". guess who appears?

Cyclops.

Because he has 'flavor text' that says,
"Let's move, X-Men!"

So the filter isn't even a "keyword" filter, it's just a plain text filter. PA pain text filter that doesn't even exclude the 7 (I think only 7?) cards that have flavor text.

As a youth I prayed, "Give me chastity and continence, but not yet."
I feel like the luckiest mfer right now. I was debating hoarding caches for Jeff next week even though I like this week's rewards too, but succumbed to temptation and opened two anyway. First one was Spiderman 2099, but the second was the random S4/5 card, which was Jeff! One of the only cards I wanted out of the 13 cards I didn't have yet. Now I have to try farm more caches because I really want that KP variant.

I challenge anybody to make an actual deck with it though, a lot of the top/key/staple cards don't have Hipp variants yet.

(In case you're curious, these are Dan Hipp variants that have been datamined but haven't been released yet: Search on snap.fan for unreleased Hipp variants.)

But that still leaves a bunch of cards where I haven't even seen an unreleased variant: Armor, Death, Magik, Angela, Mystique, Deadpool, Patriot, She-Hulk, ... (And while High Evo has a Hipp, only Wasp and Abomination also have Hipp variants.)

edit: not even goddamn Shang-Chi! :cry:

Yeah whenever I look at my collection I think the same, but then I realize I don't have Carnage or Venom. Or Death. And for Destroyer I'm missing Armor, and for Nimrod Shuri.
