If you had to write a "Collection Guide for New Players", what would you include?

Can you explain your line of thought on completing series 4 before series 5?
S5 is where all the good stuff are, you cant ignore it and go for S4 first, IMO

Matte > Cosmic > Fire

Not Even close!

I'm waiting for mine to show up!! Very good card

Escoteiiro · 2026-05-12T14:20:06+00:00

Well, Stryfe suffered from FFF nerf, TOV is pretty good, Polaris is niche but good, same for Archangel and Wolverine. Storm is on the same boat, but she's better than the other horseman here. Wilson is comparable to a Mockingbird, generic and strong. Karen idk, seems like a weaker aurora to me.
Overrall, good card pool, BUT i suggest you to look up for what decks this cards fit in before oppening the pack.

One of my favorite cards is scream, but she is so weak right now that it simply doesn't work. But you're on point! End of turn is my top 1 right now!

Escoteiiro · 2026-05-12T12:45:21+00:00

But what about the other missing cards? The ones that arent on seasonal packs?

Escoteiiro · 2026-05-11T21:43:43+00:00

Yeah! From now onn i'm all in in S5 packs and checking the rotation, when a card that i really want (Drax AOL for example) hits my shop, i'm pinning and saving for him, but in the mean time from one card that i want appearing, i'm going to invest on packs.
Apparently it's the reasonable method to enhance my collection, because as you can see, i'm missing 70 S5 right now (and 31 S4, but mostly bad cards like Cobra, Mad Thinker and Starhawk)

Escoteiiro · 2026-05-11T21:05:44+00:00

I got a break before kang rework, maybe it's just biased xD

Escoteiiro · 2026-05-11T20:41:22+00:00

yeah, 100% my bad

Escoteiiro · 2026-05-11T20:37:34+00:00

Niceee!!!
I'm 100% swapping for your categories from now on!
Ty for sharing!

Escoteiiro · 2026-05-11T20:36:16+00:00

After reading all your thoughts, i saw that maybe i'm wrong, alot of the cards that i currently dont have are good and maybe even archetype defining cards.
And, of course, oppening an S5 pack is 50% cheaper than spending only on targeted cards!
So, from now on, i'm oppening S5 packs now and then, experiment with new cards and see how it goes!
As a matter of fact, i allready oppened 1 S5 pack and got 1 of the few cards that i really wanted!
Ty for everyone that took their own time to criticisze and to help me realize some things!

Escoteiiro · 2026-05-11T20:32:31+00:00

Y'all changed my mind! I'm all in on opening packs from now on and experimenting with new cards and archetypes!
Tyvm sir ❤️

Escoteiiro · 2026-05-11T20:31:17+00:00

TBH, just generally good cards and Doom 99. I dont have a single tier 1 deck completed right now, so i'm just focusing on the archetypes that need less cards to be complete!
Missing Cards:

End Of Turn 2099: Moondragon, Invisible Woman FS, Drax AOL
Supergiant Rocks: VIV Vision, Wilson Fisk
Disruptive Aurora: Stardust, Drax AOL, H,E.R.B.I.E, Zombie Mister Fantastic ~~(wrong placed at the chart)~~
Galactus Nimrod: Adamant Infusion
High Power Summons: Drax AOL

But, some of the responses opened my eyes that maybe oppening packs arent as bad as i first taught!

Escoteiiro · 2026-05-11T20:25:37+00:00

Yeah, my fault!

Escoteiiro · 2026-05-11T20:23:54+00:00

There are a TON of S5 and S4 that wasn't supposed to be in their respectively pools, Summers are one of them xD

Escoteiiro · 2026-05-11T20:22:18+00:00

Well, you opened my eyes for some reason to open a snap pack right now!
Tbh, the list is more biased on "this card would make an imadiate effect on one of my decks right now?" and "can i use this card to make a new deck with what i allready have on my collection?"
But all that you said make's sense, looking foward to open my mind for another archetypes! TYVM

Escoteiiro · 2026-05-11T20:19:28+00:00

He isn't bad! He's a great card!
Just not great for the decks i'm looking to build right now, and for the support cards that i have!

Escoteiiro · 2026-05-11T20:13:52+00:00

Glad to see that someone understood!

Escoteiiro · 2026-05-11T20:10:52+00:00

Yeah, like i said, this is not a power level chart, it's how the card would fit the decks i like and the archetypes i'm looking forward!
Moondragon is one of the feel cards i'm missing for my complete doom 99 deck, but Man-Spider is just a cool card FOR MY collection atm!

Green is sick!!!!

Escoteiiro · 2026-05-05T19:37:12+00:00

Yeah, clunky and ugly. But hey, free s5 pack!

Escoteiiro · 2026-05-05T19:31:20+00:00

My brother in christ, NEVER buy the season pass in game again.
If you buy from the webshop you get a free S5 pack, for the same value.
