I almost prefer swingy risky blowouts over that papercut to Infinite route. I had to switch to my Living Tribunal deck from that to finally bust through the last few tanks.

Request: please change X-23's card text to "When this is discarded or destroyed, regenerate it at a random location. The first time you do, get +1 Energy next turn." It feels kinda whack that Destroy can farm a single 1-drop for 2-4 extra energy in a single game.

When I get Knull one day and become a Destroy player, I will say to you ' you're free to Odin your Psylocke before T6 [somehow], cry more'But in the meantime, yea that's a strong move that I fortunately haven't seen too often so far.

Yeah if you can get the X-23/Deadpool farm going it feels really goddamn good. It felt good but wildly inconsistent at first, but with the change to Forge at 1 energy and the addition of Nico as another buff/destroy option, it feels a lot better now. I was having a lot of fun with it during the Djinnpocalypse when the extra energy barely mattered anyway.

Love my Destroy deck but it's less fun to play when Destroy is the popular meta. So many games where we're both just lowering each other's Death cost & powering up each other's Knull.

Gimme some ideas to jazz this up. I added lady d as tech against the Elsa decks, and enchantress feels like she’s a lock still due to Ms Marvel. Not seeing a bunch of prof x or cosmo lately, but that’s a weakness of destroy. The Elsa decks are falling off now that the djinn are gone though I am kinda thinking I’ll buy Dakken when he comes up, or possibly negasonic. Anyway, this deck does pretty well but it gets kneecapped by unfavorable locations and location control a lot. I think I mainly like the feel of drawing cards, even though it’s mostly just my perception incorrectly adjusting for the cantrip self-replacement consistency feeling # (1) Nico Minoru # (1) X-23 # (2) Carnage # (3) Killmonger # (3) Venom # (3) Deathlok # (4) Enchantress # (5) Lady Deathstrike # (5) Nimrod # (6) Knull # (6) Thanos # (8) Death # eyJDYXJkcyI6W3siQ2FyZERlZklkIjoiTmltcm9kIn0seyJDYXJkRGVmSWQiOiJUaGFub3MifSx7IkNhcmREZWZJZCI6IkVuY2hhbnRyZXNzIn0seyJDYXJkRGVmSWQiOiJLaWxsbW9uZ2VyIn0seyJDYXJkRGVmSWQiOiJEZWF0aGxvayJ9LHsiQ2FyZERlZklkIjoiVmVub20ifSx7IkNhcmREZWZJZCI6IkNhcm5hZ2UifSx7IkNhcmREZWZJZCI6Ik5pY29NaW5vcnUifSx7IkNhcmREZWZJZCI6IktudWxsIn0seyJDYXJkRGVmSWQiOiJYMjMifSx7IkNhcmREZWZJZCI6IkxhZHlEZWF0aHN0cmlrZSJ9LHsiQ2FyZERlZklkIjoiRGVhdGgifV19 # # To use this deck, copy it to your clipboard and paste it from the deck editing menu in Snap.

I get having Thanos to provide tons of cheap/easy kills from Infinity Gems, but that just seems like it gets in the way and likely prevents you from pulling both Knull and Death when you need them. If Nimrod is an alternate win condition, how do you plan to pump him up? I might suggest working in Magik and then having Mystique to copy Knull on T7.

Yeah, nimrod is a vestigial ghost of a previous iteration. I hadn’t taken him out yet because T5:nimrod into deathlok and venom at two locations got me out of a couple tight situations. Magik is fun, and I’ve gotten to like her more by playing inshenaut. (I was really paranoid running her before because a few seasons ago I got a lot of wins with storm/scarlet witch/legion/red gem.). Some good points to play with! Thanks!

When Galactus was still 7 power and I was running a Nimrod focused deck, Destroyer could be a potent alternate wincon when he could spread Nimrod all over or get thrown down on Shuri’s Lab or an opposing Cosmo or such. I haven’t used him too much since the Galactus power nerf though.

Card series makes no drat sense. All cards should stay in the series they first appeared in, and we should be on something like series ten or eleven by now.

You can, but the speed at which you gain S3 cards is the same, even with variants. You’re guaranteed a certain number of S3 cards in a given lot of caches. I’m on my phone so I don’t have the numbers on hand, but the variants are just a bonus, they don’t impact your S3 acquisition rate. Quackles posted:I'd bet that's the idea. I think they just need more S4/5 cards in general. If they resumed series drops without a sizable backlog, then Spotlights would quickly become the same set of cards every few weeks. Off the top of my head, there’s about 30 S4/5 cards right now, which is about a three month rotation through Spotlights. That said, they’re ramping up to 5 new cards per week starting next month, and a 3-4 month rotation sounds fine to me, so yes, bring back Series Drops.

People who buy bundles, especially those above the $5 level is definitively still an edge case. I dunno if there’s stats on how many people are F2P vs season pass vs more than that but whales are rare for a reason.Skippy McPants posted:I think they just need more S4/5 cards in general. If they resumed series drops without a sizable backlog, then Spotlights would quickly become the same set of cards every few weeks. I didn’t realize they were upping the amount of weekly new cards. Should be interesting. Obviously more new cards solves a lot of problems, but I wonder, in a game with relatively simple mechanics and small decks, there have to be a lot of restrictions on what new cards you can even create. What new card types are people anticipating, especially those of you who have played a lot of Hearthstone and whatnot. The play on the toilet 12 card deck game can’t go full MTG.

It's the games way of enforcing equality. The whale has just as much chance as the pure F2P on each pull. At the end of the day the variant for sale is a shortcut and not an advantage.

Yeah, sorry, 5 per month rather than the 4 we get now. Which is pretty relevant from a collection PoV since they haven't changed the economy or resumed series drops. Right now, a Season Pass player gets enough resources to pick up about 75% of new cards, and a FTP gets about 40%. Post-change, it'll be more like 60% for the Season Pass and 25% for FTP.

Opponent drops a Shang-Chi to blow up my lone Namor on the waterfall, “Destroy weakest card(s) at end of the turn.” There is also a Colossus on their side. Both have 3 power and therefore the weakest cards. Colossus is not destroyed. And the Shang-Chi is NOT destroyed. What? How does that work?
