I dunno, at 4/6 he's really, really slow. Jeff works so well because 2-drops are easy to fit into your curve on multiple turns.

i kept only getting HE mirror matches playing my HE deck, so I switched to my wong deck for a bit. every match up has a cosmo. switch back to my HE deck, 5 matches in a row have been against HE decks. the gently caress is this poo poo.

T5 is for X, and T6 he won’t have an impact. So you’d have to cheat him out early, but then nothing is locked. I don’t think he fits well into lockdown decks.

You're still going to be restrained by your energy.

We'll find out for sure once they say what "shuffle" means, but I imagine it's going to assign a random cost to every card rather than swapping all your 6s for 1s and vice versa.

If it was random costs, why wouldn't it just say 'random costs' instead of 'shuffle'. So my guess is it will randomly shuffle the costs of your cards.

I’m sorry this has become a part of the game I’m fascinated by, but now I’m just getting flooded with album variants. Every card in my shop aside from one new Miles is an album variant. In theoretically related news, that Odin/Doom bundle actually looks pretty sick. I’m not dropping 30 bucks, but it seems like decent value and the variants are cool as hell.

Nothing more frustrating in this game than losing to a deck that no only makes zero sense, but played very few cards (to be fair, I ALSO played very few cards because I didn't draw a 1 or 2 cost card until T6.) All they played was a Skaar T4 (Monster Island was out,) Legion T5 on Monster Island (I blasted one of his monsters with Shang,) then Niki for a +2 boost onto...Phoenix Force to bring back said Monster. What loving deck were they playing with Niko, Legion, Skaar, and Phoenix force?

If you can Phoenix Force a Forged or Nico'd Multiple Man on t4, you'd have a 0 cost skaar on 6. The Human Torch + Taskmaster on 5 would be a smaller Taskmaster but you'd have a cheap Skaar so you could go wider Legion's just a good card with all the Limbo around. Might mess around with that

I'm not sure Hela even qualifies as a casino deck anymore, it's become so consistent. Just the best it's ever been. Went to Infinite then farmed like 250 snap points with like a 58% win rate. You can salt to taste for quite a bit of it, but the most important card in the Hela shell is Black knight. BlackCat- BlackKnight- Blade- Death- Dracula- Giganto- Hela- Infinaut- Jubilee- LadySif- Lockjaw- Magneto

I thought I had a good chance earlier today, they had IW out, and they played a Crystal for an extra card, and Magik to go seven turns. I played Enchantress T6 on their IW (they didn't play anything on it T5) and as predicted, they had played MODOK there. Discarded their whole hand...no Hela. T7 they draw Hela.

Only a few days into it, and I already hate this meta more than any since returning to the game. Stuff I enjoyed, like Loki or Sera Control, is ded and everything playable is some variation of Play Big Idiots On Curve. Oh, and I guess Destroy. Bleh.
