Because I play on my phone and post on my actual computer, so transferring deck codes is a bigger pain. Anyhoo, Shenaut is the best HE list. Here is the core,



The last three slots can be any of,

Leech
Nebula
Cosmo
Shocker
Jeff
Armor

Of those, I think Leech, Nebula, Cosmo, and Shocker are the best choices.

I juuuuust got HE (& Caiera) from this week's cache! Woo I can try decks like this now.

Yeah, great at getting us into Wawa.
Does anyone have a fun or just ridiculously random deck to play with? I like experimenting with random stuff in the early part of the month, and I haven't landed on anything especially clever.

I was kind of hoping to find something that would make good use of both Morph and Doc Ock.

I'm assuming you already tried the Ronan route?



I figured fishing for big dudes would be fun this season and Leeching a huge hand is funny.

He'll yeah! Doc Ock > Shang would be pretty funny too, maybe I'll take out Devil Dinosaur.

I really do suspect Morph will be quietly pretty drat good this season. All the best decks (Black Knight, Lockjaw, InSheNaut, Blob) have very tasty hands.

and no more changes to card acquisition, which remains bad.

aside from the nebulous new game mode, none of these are exciting.

I would hope it means you can more easily play casual games with clan members. Otherwise, it's probably just rankings and perhaps some sort of message board? All they've said so far at the link above is that you can collaborate on missions and earn points, whatever that means.

Calling it now that clan membership will have a hilariously small ceiling, so the goons will have to have like 4 or 5 separate clans.

Depends on how Booster Vats are implemented. Replacing all those 25/65/155 random booster rewards with a similarly sized tub where you can pick what card they're for would be helpful.

By the way, if anyone missed it there's a new web exclusive bundle choice. $15 for Psylocke or Iceman. Iceman is better value.

the way they worded it, 99% sure we're gonna see booster vats as a new $ option. there's no way they give them to us for free. prolly tease out a freebie or two as samplers to try to get peopled hooked on yet another thing that will be monetized in the shop.

Ah they finally actually did the refund and I now have -250 gold, honestly thought they weren't going to bother. When I worked on a mobile game with microtransactions that was a real loving nightmare to test, very decent chance of it massively loving stuff up so I figured they'd just give me the double gold I was supposed to get, that seems easier but eh.

Clans will be definitely be built to feed on fomo and peer pressure

Was a good year while they still had core anti whaling values they were adhering to. Now they got the playerbase and can afford to lose the minnows and ftps

Everything announced today is basically monetization or cosmetic. It feels really annoying to constantly be getting these big announcements that don’t actually have anything to do with gameplay, card acquisition, game modes, *actually playing the game*

Also anyone hopeful about the booster vat, be prepared for "your booster vat is FULL! Pay 2.99 now to get your 250 [iron man] boosters and start collecting more bonus boosters for your favorite cards NOW!"

Pick the Booster Vat size you want to use, pick the character you want to target, complete an objective to crack open the Booster Vat, and then collect your Boosters!

Is "Pay us $5" an Objective now?

Edit: I'm still not sure Booster Vats will be a purchase or something more like "Win X Matches with Iron Man to get 50 Iron Man Boosters!"

Or both? Why NOT monetize when you CAN monetize, eh?

I think I saw someone with that deck today and I thought it was a bot deck because it seemed very strange. I ended up winning with a Darkhawk deck.

It's a relatively basic early Pool 3 discard. Consider dropping Wolverine or Chavez for Collector. He doesn't get huge, but he gets a buff every time you discard Swarm and Apocalypse. Helicarrier might be a decent replacement for She Hulk when you get it. Also, Ghost Rider isn't great here. He can't pull Apoc, and he can pull Swarm. Think about Moon Knight, Hell Cow, or Black Bolt if you have any of them.

If I had any of those they'd be in the deck, he's come in clutch multiple times for me with good placement

Jumped on the Sauron bundle that just popped up because it was mega gold to credits value. As a result I jumped.... a ton in collection level. So that's nice!

I've got a decent chunk of Pool 3+ cards now... are there any super standout options here that I might be able to work something good or fun/memey out of?

They’ve confirmed that customizing card borders will also lock the card effects to whatever that border naturally has so the dream of a good looking 3-D Animated Ink card with a white border remains dead for at least six months or however long it takes them to change that.
