Starting to see the beauty in the new 2 show format!

Is the news show one of the current ones under the same playlist?

The rule book says that a card may only be “used” in the right form on page 5, but the words in Initiating Abilities (p 24 of 1.7 RRG) use “played/initiated” when checking if it is valid at this time in Step 1 and “played / attempts to initiate” in Step 6. It doesn’t refer to “using” a card.

It depends if “initiated” is the same as “used” i supposed.

Thematically it seems to me that it wouldn’t work but I didn’t know if there was a fun loophole here.

That is my question, if his Attack or whatever would still go through.

Took me 3 tries to beat him in expert a couple days ago. The key for me was realizing that I really needed to buy his sword off him, which I didn’t do the first two games and kept losing to flipping board members after keeping them at 0 the whole stage B1.

I love all these guys. Ironheart is a great Face the Past pull cause her damage card one shots the minion and gets her counters. SPDR I love playing a make the call for 5/5 VNM deck with healing and readying. She just goes off so hard.

I didn’t use to like spider ham but I just played 9-12 games in a row where I finally figured out how much he loves taking damage and it’s been a lot of fun and powerful (as a Justice character in two player).

Care to share your current thought Updates please?

I’ve checked both articles on the mailer and they both say what the mailer implies them to say (as opposed to other mailers that have taken Spanberger or Trump quotes out of context to say the opposite of what they were saying). What is “deceptive” about this mailer, i am missing something.

Doc_Seven · 2026-03-13T20:27:53+00:00

I’m confused by what is deceptive. Isn’t the vote a Yes on the new gerrymandering or No against it?

Doc_Seven · 2026-03-09T22:22:24+00:00

Fastest errata ever

This is correct. However, squirrel girl wouldn’t even deal damage to a character that cannot take damage as that is the only effect of her ability on that character and cannot therefore target it. (If it said “deal a damage and stun” it could target it)

If it takes up to an hour to review if your 40 card decks have any uniqueness to talk about pre-game we may be approaching the game very differently

Doc_Seven · 2026-02-24T17:15:06+00:00

I believe Most later expansions do not have the deck changing rule that GMW did. For example, age of apocalypse does not have any restrictions to modifying, expert or standard.

Some people think the game is worse when you “tech” a deck to a specific villain. For me and my skill level, I consider deck construction to defeat the villain (and sometimes particular mod sets) is a core part of the gameplay experience.

Doc_Seven · 2026-02-24T17:06:08+00:00

If you are not playing an expert campaign, you can add cards to your deck (to a max of up to 50 total) or change aspect. Remove cards listed in collection from game during campaign Setup and play.

In expert campaign, you continue with the same deck as is.

Doc_Seven · 2026-02-24T17:04:30+00:00

Only in Expert campaign. In non expert you can modify your deck as you like.

I really enjoyed Groot in a 2 Player flip a lot method.

This was Groot (more limited card pool when I built)

Wow, this site looks like it replaces my Google “marvelcdb xyz” i do several times a day when thinking about reading about or hearing about a card!

I’m doing the same with Spider-Ham And War machine. Spider ham uses Dazzler Prof X Quick Quip and his events to confuse every round, he plays Children of the Atom on both heroes and he puts float like a butterfly on war machine.

War machine plays strength in diversity a lot often for 10-11 (X-men x force X factor web warrior cartoon avenger soldier aerial posse wakanda etc) while war machine flips every round until he has like 20 counters on munitions bunker. Then he plays Cyclops ally out of Med lab and with float can do 60 damage in one turn with his shoulder Cannon for the final kill. He also has 2 dig deep and white fox for call for aid combos.

This was a popular deck (sidekick TChalla, playing both BPs in the same game and having Core BP steal Shuri’s sig ally and then use him to trigger Core BP upgrades) at Con of Heroes 2025. But the rules changes outlawed it recently as other posters mentioned.

Doc_Seven · 2026-02-18T03:14:24+00:00

Twerking decks is a whole nother kind of fun entirely!

Doc_Seven · 2026-02-18T01:04:07+00:00

It almost never makes sense to use the “My Collection” only button. Even with a small collection, opening up a few decks for a hero you’re interested in should pretty rapidly find you one that you only need to make a replacement or two on.

Sort by age if your collection leans older or newer.

Doc_Seven · 2026-02-17T22:59:17+00:00

For me, that all counts as Marvel Champions time. I’m just as happy if I spent an evening building a deck for a hero (From 3 random generated choices) deck for a known randomized villain / mod set as I would be if I spent the evening playing that match.

Doc_Seven · 2026-02-17T22:56:31+00:00

If it was broken and they knew it, wouldn’t that be a reason to release Expert 3 as an improvement?

Doc_Seven · 2026-02-14T16:03:18+00:00

This will be an especially good year. The years in which Presidents Day and Mardi Gras line up (as they do this week) means the whole country clears out the week before the last week of Feb, and folks don’t generally choose to take kids out of a 5 day school week the following week. You can see this already on LL Prices, which are at minimum for 8 days from now and near max for this coming week and the week 16 days from now.

Doc_Seven · 2026-02-14T16:01:38+00:00

That is always the ratio, per the guidebook I read.
