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.

I can handle Blob and Destroy, but I am loving done with Evo.

not 100% sold on the second change as disenchanting lizard later in the game has worked well:

The invisible Woman and Mojo bundled today includes 4,000 (3,000 was expected) for 4,200 gold. Which is the peak gold to token ratio (0.8) for the foreseeable future and matches the ratio, if not quantity, expected in the Christmas bundle - which unfortunately was revamped before launch.

Edit: And the timing is awkward, in that it's just a week before that expensive Kazar bundle with 6,000 tokens for 7,500 gold. Which is a worse ratio than this bundle but still much better than a token Tuesday.

It's not just Ms. Marvel. They've really gone whole-hog with gutting every scaling threat and sub-5-cost stat stick in the game. Like, since Nov. they've directly or indirectly nerfed Angela, Elsa, WWBN, Collector, Ms. Marvel, and Dark Hawk.

None of those nerfs were unjustified in isolation (except for Angela), but the end result is a meta where only the decks slamming giant beef sticks on 5/6 remain. It's tremendously bland, and it can't end sooner enough. I really, really hope they pull out their new ability to change text in OTAs to shitcan blob. Thanos and Shenaut alone are over 25% of the meta.

this deck with abs man is really funny because you can throw out a bunch of tech on T6, or if you need to clear two lanes vs. someone with caiera, you can enchant + shang + abs

Does Lady Sif prioritize Hela or something? I could have all four of my 6 drops in hand and it’s Hela everytime. When this deck works it’s pretty nutty but it is in no way consistent.

Play Ongoing Thanos Zoo. Nothing like having your opponent build up for a big turn 6 play only to have it Valkyrie'd into nothing. You also get to abuse Blob yourself.

That’s possible. Loki just got nerfed so that may have had an impact. Most of what I see is InSheNaut or something similar these days.

Patriot is always pretty good but no one plays it anyway. I’m guessing most of its data is from pretty low CL players.

Always take the untapped meta rankings with a grain of salt. They've had Loki in C-Tier for almost two months now, despite him being arguably the best deck up until this week.

Yeah, I used to play Patriot/Ultron a lot back whenever (last winter?), when I had just random S4/5 cards and it was consistent but rather boring indeed, if you get Patriot+Mystique out you'll probably win unless some tech card fucks you up and then you have basically no chance

I saw so much Ultron when I first entered Pool 3 that Killmonger became my favorite card.

C3 has stunned me a couple of times by using Invisible Woman and then stuff like Sentry, etc to hide its true nature. The 3 power cards all feel like maybe part of another deck.

Anyone run C3 with Blade/Moon Knight/Swarm? Sure there's better 3 power guys, but my running those three in a Lockjaw deck has given me a ton of respect for even an unbuffed pair of 0 cost 3 power cards.

C3 Discard is a thing, but it's as inconsistent as all discard. Moon Knight is pretty useless, but you can tempo Blade and Swarm on 6 with Cerebro or Mystique. Ghost Rider is also an option.

I don't like 90% of the Hipp art. Not saying it's bad, I just prefer my characters to look like comics. My extremely controversial opinion is that the Pixels by and large look better.

But I don't want to insult the guy. He puts in work and seems to enjoy doing it, so if others rock the Hipp, well, who am I to judge.

The only good pixel is Killmonger.
