baby storm which is honestly not too bad for a baby variant (and all her best variants are super rare/ultimate)

I got baby Elektra as my mystery variant. I guess you can't argue with free, but dang it I really want to.

Rescue should be a 2 or 3-drop. A 4-drop that scales when you play something else into that lane sucks because you don't want to be telegraphing which lane you're developing that late into the game.

What the HELL? That's my cutting board.

Picked up Ryan Brown Thing as my mystery variant. Then immediately drew another Psylocke variant. At least it wasn't Ant-Man, again.

Anyone know what the last two cards are in this list? Destroyed my Loki deck in Conquest just now.

# (2) Shadow King
# (2) Zabu
# (2) Jeff the Baby Land Shark
# (2) Maximus
# (3) Gladiator
# (3) Killmonger
# (3) Mobius M. Mobius
# (4) Shang-Chi
# (4) Enchantress
# (5) Sera

Pretty sure Sera was the top end. Nova would make sense to me but they never played it. Possibly also Polaris but never saw that either. Scarlet Witch? I used to play those three in my Sera decks.

looks similar to the counter deck that got posted yesterday or the day before - probably Ms Marvel and Legion

Yeah Ms Marvel makes sense because of Zabu. I think Scarlet Witch might be better than Legion though.

Legion's really good, you get to choose the location - Witch beats Limbo for cheaper, but Legion can win in other ways and Scarlet Witch will sometimes blow up in your face

Plus the deck kinda lacks power so you need some big cards

Yeah legion has been great in that deck, I didn't have gladiator so I swapped it out for x-23 which is a good filler for a Ms marvel lane or kill mongered on turn 3 for a turn 4 Sera or legion

Actually I think I did get a Legion from Loki once so it makes sense. I think Gladiator+ Maximus are probably enough power along with shadow king and Shang but that might be my old school Sera decks talking.

if you're early pool three, that def. is the worst time i remember trying to climb.

shaw has not been great in this meta, esp. since other cards are out powering him.

do you have access to the token shop? one really good performing deck type (high evo) can pretty much be played as soon as you have the 6k tokens needed to grab him.

if not, def. try to stick with one deck to climb. early pool three climbing i remember taking a wong deck all the way, but can be tough in the current meta since there's a lot of lockdown, control, etc. going around, and cosmo, rogue, enchantress, and co. all screw with him.

if you can post a list / ss of the pool three cards you do have, i'm sure folks can help pull together a decent deck list for you to continue climbing with.

can also join the discord and ping folks there... i'm always up for watching some games and trying to help / backseat.

cheers, I wasn't fully into Pool 3 yet when I posted this but I'm a few cards in now. So far have:

Adam Warlock
Agatha Harkness
Beast
Death
Destroyer
Ghost Rider
Human Torch
Juggernaut
Magneto
Rogue
She-Hulk
Spider-Man
Ultron

Destroyer


It's been outclassed at the upper levels of the meta now, but Destroyer used to be a top tier build around card. You want Prof X, Armor, and Cosmo to protect your own things from being blown up. Notice how those are all ongoing cards? Fill the rest of the deck with other ongoing cards like Ant-Man and Warpath, and then top that part of the deck off with Spectrum. It's been a year+, but this build was tier 1 for a while and is pretty fun to play. You could throw the Rogue in there too to steal other peoples' ongoing effects.

I think babies are the worst, on average, but you're not wrong. The Venomized and Knullified variants are all edge-lordy trash.

Reek posted:

Still one of the Top-5 decks in the game, but less than 1% meta share because everyone's sick of playing it.
