Hulkbuster has a lot of fun little edge cases. Personal favorite, using Hulkbuster on itself at Cloning Vats (puts a copy of the card you played in your hand). You can combine that with Deadpool and/or Venom for extra fun.

Best play at Bar Sinister I've seen so far is my opponent dropping a Hulkbuster there to merge itself into a 16 power behemoth that still left 3 slots open.

Bar Sinister + Hulkbuster/Venom/Arnim Zola is as hilarious as it sounds and I'm loving it.

I want to try Hazmat out in a debuff deck with Luke Cage, Typhoid Mary, etc because it seems different and fun but that style of deck will involve having most of pool 3 so it’s a way off.

I'm certain this can be better optimized but I have a lot of fun with this deck:

* Elektra (1)
* Iceman (1)
* Nova (1)
* Yondu (1)
* Black Widow (2)
* Hazmat (2)
* Carnage (2)
* Scorpion (2)
* Green Goblin (3)
* Debrii (3)
* Hobgoblin (5)
* Spider-Woman (5)

It's not without it's weaknesses but its good at filling your opponent's board with low-power (hopefully negative) BS.

I've been pondering swapping Yondu/Scorpion out for Squirrel Girl/Viper but I'm not sold yet (Scorpion is good against destroy decks running Deadpool/Wolverine/Venom/etc), and Elektra is useful against decks with Human Torch, Ant-Man or Nova but also niche, so viable for replacement. Thoughts/suggestions always welcome.

I would swap out Blade for Colleen and maybe Spider-Woman for Iron Man? Better chances of popping Swarm that way and I think Iron Man can be a stronger choice.

Black Cat is a good add once you get her, but I wouldn't use Hell Cow until you have Invisible Woman, too much random destruction.

You have a perfectly serviceable Destroy deck available too:



Build up your Venom as much as you can and then do the ol' switcheroo with Arnim Zola. Deadpool is great when you get him but you can use Nightcrawler/Ice Man/Squirrel Girl in the meantime.

Death can also work here but it really opens up as an option once you get Debrii.

Feels like it needs some tweaks and another wincon, but not sure what to cut/add.

That looks sick as all hell and I'm gonna try it out.

Initial thoughts: Maybe either ditch Mr. Fantastic for another cheap 1 cost card (Sunspot?) to help with activating Ant-Man, or replace the latter (or even both) with something higher cost like Ronan/Warpath/Devil Dinosaur/etc? Warpath in particular could feels like it could be strong here.

I've been using this Mr. Negative deck a lot the last few days and it's real dumb and super random but fun and somehow wins a lot of games.

I've posted this before but you can run a perfectly serviceable destroy deck without Deadpool - he sure as hell helps but he isn't a needed ingredient in the recipe. Just sub out with Nightcrawler/Ice Man/Squirrel Girl at your leisure and enjoy blowing things up.

uXs posted:

What's the general strategy for this one?

Playing Venom is about playing, maintaining, and adding power to/from your board. Deadpool/Wolverine/Sabretooth are all power that's either additive or otherwise doesn't get destroyed; pair them with Hulkbuster and build up to one final huge Venom chomp on T5 into Arnim Zola on T6 while still keeping your Wolverine/Sabretooth active. Bonus points if you can Hulkbust Sabretooth on one of the clone/duplicate fields.

That could be great- does he still pull something out of the deck?

I actually don't remember I was so dumbstruck that it happened. I may burn a couple of cubes to test though.

Also if you have a Lockjaw on Danger Room and a card that you play there gets destroyed, he summons a replacement from your deck as normal. Probably works on Death's Domain as well

Edit: Yes, he does replace himself with another card.

He's supposed to be some meta defining card, isn't he?

If you have the cards to make him work it's one of the dumbest, most randomass decks that somehow still wins a lot of matches.



There may be better choices for some cards but this deck is hilarious and I love it so much I've almost completely dropped my Death deck.

I lack Jane Thor and Arnim and am currently maining a Negative deck. “Concede or get 8 cubes” describes it pretty well. I very rarely lose a game I stick around past round four in.

I'll add that I don't think Psylock is needed; if she helps pull Mr. Negative in turn 3, sweet, but she's a lot less useful past that. I made the same deck work fine with Gambit for a while and will consider dropping her when I get Electro.

Other possible replacements include Wave or any other randomass 1/2 card, whatever lets Lockjaw cycle cards.

Welp, I found a way to be even worse on Featured Locations. I drew Agatha, and let her go to work.

I suck at building decks.

I've been using this deck the last few weeks and it is fukkin hilarious:



There are locations that will 100% screw you (anything with extra energy or card draws, The Peak, etc.) but if you pull Wave or Sif by turn 3? Snap that motherfucker and watch the cubes pour in.

The deck I ripped it off from had Sera instead of Hobgoblin but unless anyone here can explain to me why she's a better option I would choose.... drat near literally any other 4 or 5 cost card.

Sera is good because she lets you play two 4 costs on turn 6. This is especially strong if you have an active ghost rider + shangchantress in hand because it lets you beat a lot of boards.

But I find I get matchmade against much stronger decks when I play sera with Agatha so I don't enjoy it that much.


Either way Devil Dino will be really fat in your version and will keep Taskmaster alive even after you ghost rider. Without location weirdness dino will be 13 power in Sif games, 15 power in Wave games.

Eh, that may be true but it often feels like the turn I spend playing Sera is a turn that would have been better spent playing Taskmaster or Red Skull. I tried playing the deck with her in for a few days and just found I always preferred playing cards that weren't Sera on T5.

DD is a good sub, and I also like Spider-Woman in that slot; really there are a ton of options available.

I’ve never really gotten the Sera love, at best you can play maybe 1 more useful card. I’ve just never gotten any utility out of her, at least not enough to waste 5 energy on.

And TVA is great when I’m using my Patriot deck, but not at any other time

I beefed about Sera a bit earlier in the thread on the same front, particularly in my Agatha deck, but I've since subbed her back in and am starting to understand the appeal. Like someone else in the thread said there are a lot of good utility 4-cost cards, and getting to play two of them on T6 can be a game winner.

It sucks I can't work towards the decks I wanna play! That Luke Cage - Hazmat deck looks like so much fun, but as I'm CL400 and I'm assuming those are season 4/5 cards I'm literally thousands of levels away of being able to play them, that feels bad!

For whatever it's worth Luke Cage is the only Series 4 card in that deck; everything else is S3 or lower. Here's a version I used before I got Luke/Hood:

* Elektra (1)
* Iceman (1)
* Nova (1)
* Black Widow (2)
* Hazmat (2)
* Carnage (2)
* Scorpion (2)
* Viper (2)
* Green Goblin (3)
* Debrii (3)
* Hobgoblin (5)
* Spider-Woman (5)

That said I feel like Luke is kind of a Mr. Negative or Lockjaw situation, where they're a pretty key card for defining this archetype. This deck is fun and "works" otherwise but it truly takes off with Wong/Luke.

I really wish they would add in some more options for debuff/territory control decks, maybe something like a 5 cost "This card gains +1 power for every other card that has had its power reduced" or some such.
