agatha being 6 mana is going to be a pretty tough worst case scenario, though she always tries to play herself first and as such you're mostly just dropping agatha the turn after you play valentina

Quinjet Valentina Agatha is actually an extremely solid line

Yeah I was going to say Agatha is a pretty top tier pull. Your turn 3 might be weird but she's always going to play herself on 4 unless your opponent drops a Mobius. Right up there with Red Hulk as one of the better ones.

Copycat could be good in the mill shell if you can consistently force your opponent to draw the card whose text she stole.

He's still decent but not quite as.game breaking as he was before. I use him in my Hela deck, he's good to have in case you don't draw a big hitter or two

Blob's fine. Red Hulk reliably gives comparable or better power without the significant downside and so is clearly preferable.

They'll probably also resurrect Thanos at some point, and Blob will always be an auto-include in that deck.

If you're looking at Spotlights, Knull is also a solid pickup, and Valentia appears plenty playable.

Nocturne is a more expensive Scarlet Witch.

Nocturne is a Scarlet Witch that doesn't turn off the positive location she's placed at but does kill negative ones whenever you want instead of having to be played on the turn. She can kill Limbo without gimping your turn 6 and laughs in the face of Storm. She's a good card.

E: also note that her ability triggers whenever she moves, not just when you use her own move.

Same, the first patch this happened it was laggy for days even after redownloading assets twice. Where's the QC.

If they did a 'add +2 power if this ability is used', he'd at least be decent.

Makes sense canonically too, since he can change into Arcangel like a werewolf in the comics.

Normal play, Angel. Destroy deck play, Arcangel with +2.

Sometimes it builds a very boring archetypal deck you could build yourself from memory.

Sometimes it adds Sauron to a deck as the sole ongoing card.

I think I'm a doctor, but that doesn't make me a doctor. This fancy avatar does.
I'm sure others have noticed already, but although Captain Marvel doesn't take into account things like the +2 Kraven would get if she moved to his location, she DOES take into account Widow's Kiss going from -4 to 0 if she fills the lane it's in.

What? Yes she does. Why would she not account for Kraven?

That's correct, although to be exact she will move to increase the number of lanes you're winning and only checks if you are winning fewer than two. So if you're losing all three lanes she will move to a lane she can win, even though you won't win the match thereby.

She’s good but she isn’t as good as she was pre-nerf

She's still a solid card and one of the better 4-cost stat sticks. If you don't play Loki, she's probably a better pull than Valentia, honestly.

Ms Marvel is suffering a little with the junk meta (Annihilus is probably the best card in the game right now). That being said, I still don't think she's getting played as much as she should be.

Cannonball is hot for sure,but the Hood / Sentry / Annihilus package thrives in that deck. I don't pay for the advanced stats but I would wager that Annihilus has the highest cube rate when played in the game outside of maybe Shang-Chi. And Shang hasn't had a ton of targets lately.

e: I guess maybe I'd categorize it more as Lockdown than Junk. The Junk sub package is doing some very heavy lifting in that deck though.
