YoshiOfYellow posted:Speaking of card acquisitions I've had Ms Marvel pinned in my token shop since the season started is that still the smart play after she's eaten a nerf? I also don't know if she exactly enables any decks on her own if the idea is to look for stuff that will put a deck together for you rather than just "top tier cards". I’m still using her deck. With the nerf she’s a good card still imo but very specific to play around her. I feel like she’s a good slot into other decks just as a good overall 4 drop. Keep in mind dr doom makes activating her full 14 power very easy, the 2 cards together are basically 10 on every lane and will win you many games Before the nerf yes you build an entire deck around her

Oh and I do have Dr. Doom already too, neat. I'll keep her pinned for now then. Only at 4200 tokens currently so it'll be awhile longer yet.

Swapping out Angela for Hit Monkey gave me a record of 10-10 with +2 cubes overall. HOWEVER, one of those games was a -8 to Ego because Ego is good at playing cards.

Hobo Clown posted:Man, Skaar stinks out loud. I can't wait until this dumb month is over and I never need to use him in a deck again. He works alright in the Hela discard deck someone posted in the last couple pages (swapped him in for Giganto). Provides an alternate way to get power on the table on T6 if you aren’t Hela’ing, and can often be discounted since you’re running Lockjaw and Jubilee.

It's pretty rare I'll get his cost lower than 4, and when I do I usually have a better T6 play instead. He's fine in that spot but he's ultimately either a worse Giganto or worse Magneto. I'm sure at some point they'll tweak his discount or give him some extra power but as is he's pretty underwhelming.

No Wave posted:Serious question tho why not hit monkey? Hoogland had some reasoning, including Hit Monkey being awful into Leech. I think it's just another decklist altogether: you want Sera to empower a big Hit Monkey turn, and Kitty is bad if you're trying to run out Sera on 5, so everything shifts. You gain some big cube potential because people don't expect how tall you can go, but you're probably less consistent overall. This was my list I made Infinite with out of the 90s this week. Everything in the bottom row is non-negotiable, Medusa is a flex spot that could be Iceman, Goose, Havok, whatever floats your boat. I like Medusa because she's amenable to being played early or late, and she benefits from both Bast and being bounced.

Fate Accomplice posted:Funnily enough that is exactly the reasoning he uses in his explanations I know, I watched the video and it's something KM says a lot, but man, putting the Destory staples so low when it's currently the top deck is... a choice. And putting cards like Loki, Snowguard, Blob, and Black Knight so high when they also only go in single decks is baffling. The whole video is like a Loki-Lovers tier list, and I say this as someone who also loves Loki.

Confirmed good deck, at least for now. You retreat a lot, so the winrate isn't stellar, but the cube gain is real. People aren't used to you slamming that much power on turn 6. I have so much more fun when bounce is good. Can't wait for people to complain so they nerf it again. Maybe Hit Monkey will be 4 energy this time.

I've loved seeing all the 15 power Blobs the past few days. I think I only ran into one that manged to grow past 25 power.Devo posted:I have so much more fun when bounce is good. Can't wait for people to complain so they nerf it again. Maybe Hit Monkey will be 4 energy this time. I think after Black Sawn comes out, they might finally bite the bullet and add the (Minimum 1) text to Beast. Imagine a Swan on turn 2 into 2-3 power 1-drops and a Beast on turn 3, scraping all those juicy one-drops back into your hand to be replayed on turn 4 for free, then Falconed back just to pour salt in the wound. And then you Grandmaster your Falcon on turn 5, meaning you can play three free 1-drops three separate times. That could be a 0/7 Forge, a 0/10 Hawkeye, and 3/18 worth of demons from Hood.

Picked up Miek cause I had a ton of tokens, and his text isn't accurate, at least not in the way it's written. IMO, the text as written says he gets +1 for every card discarded that turn, then moves. But that's not what he does. He HAS to move to get the power increase. As written, it's implied he can get the power , and THEN moves, if able. In actuality, it should be more like: "After each turn, if you discarded any cards, move, and then gain +1 power for each card discarded." Edit: well now I'm seeing on Reddit he DOESN'T have to move. In that case, it seems he won't activate if you have a MODOK behind Invisible Woman. I guess that makes sense, in the way nothing SD does with regards to complete lack of real keywords and order of operations makes sense.

Yeah one of the SD people clarified before release that Miek doesn't have to move to get the power boost.

DrBouvenstein posted:
Annoyingly this makes his text especially accurate. He says after each turn.. IW triggers after the end of T6 but before the end of the game. So Miek technically can never get the power because their is no more “turn” to trigger his power growth. That’s stupid as poo poo and unintuitive, but, alas.

Basically the way it works is: 0) End turn 1) Miek checks for number of cards discarded 2) Miek gains power based on answer from #1 3) Miek moves to another location if one is available But since things like Dark Dimension, Invisible Woman, and Dracula happen after this whole checklist, Miek doesn't benefit from them.

I finally got a premium split of my Phoenix Force Shang Chi (8th split of 11 Shang splits total) only to discover that a Gold split basically looks the same as the base variant because the base background is also mostly yellow.

Shang-Chi'd an 18 and 13 Human Torch/Vulture off K'un-Lun, they play Phoenix Force for a 22 Torch and move it back to K'un-Lun and double snap. Iron Lad on turn 6, scans Odin, triggers Shang-Chi again. Incredibly satisfying top deck draw.

wyoak posted:How long til Grandmaster gets nerfed or causes a bunch of cards that synergize to get nerfed? I've said it like half a dozen times now, but Beast needs to get the (Minimum 1) text. Until that happens, Bounce decks will keep on breaking as they release new cards that synergize with him. Edit: and I say that as someone who loves Bounce, but 0-cost cards are simply too good in such a short game with such scarce resources.

Grandmaster is getting a lot of hype for his release tomorrow.quote:On Reveal: Move one of your other On Reveal cards here to the middle location. Its ability happens again. There are so many potential bizarre combos (Galactus if you use a card like Iron Fist or Ghost-Spider to move GM) that the card does seem must-have. I look forward to spending 4 keys tomorrow. I do wonder if Grandmaster will encourage a lot more use of lockdown stuff.

He might be crap on release, he might not, but his effect is so unique and powerful that it's hard to imagine he won't be broken at some point.
