Wait, since when is Blob a 6-cost card? I thought he was a 3/4.
He's been datamined as a 6 for awhile now

Neither of those cards cares much about what is played, only where. Gamora wants to know so she's a 5/12, and with X you usually want to know which lane can be locked because your opponent isn't playing there.
eh it's pretty helpful to know power being put into a lane when you're playing prof X
or like if they're playing shang or cosmo and you put gamora down that might not be good

Shaw will be a solid addition to Surfer, and most of the cards that can buff him have synergy with Actual Good Card WWBN.

Seriously, I have no idea how so many people view that card as okay. A 3/9-15 is so absurd.

No. Ongoing abilities won't proc his effect. But some location effects will! Like the one that gives +2 to all cards in your hand, or the +2 on T5 to all at that location.

How about the one that gives +1 end of every turn, or Aunt Mays, or shuris lab??

Plus, sometimes people play things that you really want to lock down, even if it loses you that lane, but gives you better game position overall. Like ongoing stacks or destroy stacks. Or a goblin.

Muir Island on Shaw will be pretty good. If you play him there on 3, he'll be a... 3/16?

That's almost on par with a good WWNB draw!

I mean, you joke, but that's without any support. Shaw with support like Nico, and Forge will increase his stat line significantly. WWBN needs a deck of on reveals, and if you don't have any destroy effects, you can fill lanes and not have him able to move rather quickly.

Not to mention that WWBN needs board space, and that's kind of constrained in the current meta, either due to control effects or junk.

I've gotten WWBN very big very consistently but the problem is he usually has to stay where he is from T5->6 which makes him a target. Otherwise you can bounce him away but you will rarely be able to replace his spot in that lane.

This thread is beneath my talent, but I....shall elevate it.
My dreams of playing Mysterio/Monkey on 5 into Firestar on 6 are dead. Shame as she was the card I was most excited for.

Going to be funny the first time a Darkhawk player loses everything to someone playing The Blob though.

I think I'm a doctor, but that doesn't make me a doctor. This fancy avatar does.

I assume they're referring to being able to "mix and match" the different backgrounds/effects/borders you've unlocked.

A lot of people (myself included) love the way the gold border looks with certain cards if you've also unlocked the gold background. But then you can't upgrade that card at ALL anymore, and if it's the first split of that variant, then you have to decide if you're willing to give up the gold border to take it to infinity to split it again to try for inked, or other particle effects.

here come the planes
yeah i'd absolutely adore being able to mix and match border colors/background colors/particle effects when they're unlocked. i've soured on the rainbow foil background so i somewhat recently swapped over to the infinite base version on everything i had unlocked, but i would've still liked to use (say) the rainbow explosion effect on my festival jubilee

They talked about adding a new tier of rarity for variants didn't they? Like beyond the 5000 token ones, I'd assume in the most whalesome bundles only or just straight up not in a bundle and you just buy the single variant on its own for Ł100 or whatever.

Yeah, I'm gold or infinite exclusively; maybe a few b/w ones. The rainbow background sucks with the cards. I like rainbow colors, too, but they just replace the background in odd ways.

The tweet is specifically referring to them bringing up that Ultimate variants are supposed to get additional VFX/SFX when played to make them feel more “ultimate” — this is separate from the “HIGHER than Ultimate” variant tier they’ve talked about as well as the mix and match of current splits or upcoming additional split types or first edition badges lol.

Like drat, the whole deck is built around throwing prio and slamming massive cheated stats on turn 6. There are few worse decks to shove Alioth into.

I used to really hate Galactus and I thought he was as bad as a card could get

Alioth pisses me off like 5x as much, he's such a dumb card that just completely removes other peoples ability to play the game, which is *always* the worst design for a card

After a couple of weeks of Conquest failures with Annihilus decks, I'm having some success now with a 'Girl Power' deck that was on SnapZone a couple of weeks ago. It's pretty high-rolly but it puts out a lot of power in some unexpected ways. And it uses Rescue!

What if I told you cod is no longer a fish :coolfish:
Rescue is underrated I think. Big 4 cost card without a downside to play around. Been using her in my Shuri/Annihilus deck this week, and today in a Martyr deck.

Deck tries to keep priority so the disruption cards can do their thing. I actually thought putting Martyr behind Invisible woman would counter the moving effect, but it does not. Reasoning is that if Attuma is revealed behind Invis Women, the card doesn't destroy itself. Overall the deck is good when your revealing first, martyr effect is easily played around by filling/locking down lanes.

Attuma will be safe because there are no more “End of Turn” triggers. Martyr will move for the same reason IW turns off; it’s the “End of Game”phase and those effects take place.
