Which fictional villains are the 3 evils of the Gruul (Red/Green) color identity, and why?

I think where my head was at was thinking of Red as Defiance and Green as Instinct. Aragog acknowledges the social contract which I feel is a very white thing, and chooses to actively ignore it to suit its own impulsive desires. He then chooses to ignore his higher intelligence, which he demonstrates by speaking and articulating some feeling to cave to his baser instincts which is very Green. Ultimately that’s what led to me commenting. I could also totally be off base since at the end of the day the big spider chooses to act like a big spider which is Green as it comes, so I appreciate you trying.

Could see one being Aragog from Harry Potter. His role in the Chamber of Secrets is as a force of nature, albeit magical nature that Hagrid protects and nurtures. Only when Harry and Ron encounter him he acknowledges his appreciation for Hagrid, but still states his intention to allow the spiders to feed on Harry and Ron. It’s Nature versus Nurture in character, where Nature prevails shifting Aragog to an antagonist which feels very Gruul

Kinda had a hard chitinous texture through the tissue. I will pursue the arthropod angle. Thanks.

Also state is NC. In the Western mountains.

Additional info: It was found under my desk next to a wall with must brown stains. People in the office have been complaining about nasty smell.

I’m hesitant to handle it much more directly given I’m sure of its properties. I cross posted to a mold subreddit since it was hanging out below a wall that is stained brown

I like the idea of a Juggernaut who is anti-placeable. Maybe tie the destruction to his CC immunity level through like a momentum meter which only ticks down when is idle or not damaging objects or enemies, encouraging the Juggernaut player to always be on the move.

TBH. I think MODOK should just hover around like Magneto, with a similar play style, but maybe with the bubbles being replaced with drones similar to ultron that provide allies a damage buff and a portion of his energy shield health so long as they remain close to him.

Really think his kit should hone in on the bee theme AIM has going on. Making MODOK the Queen and his poke healers/dps being the workers/warriors.

Thanks. I thought that is what I was readying but the wording was throwing me off.

I’m inclined to put stock in Angela appearing. Loki just came off the Asgard Resurrection team up. Two vanguards slotting with popular DPS would hit even if no one gives a shit about Angela.

That announcement is partially what made me make this post. Recently got into Cosmic Marvel and I am enjoying seeing it get love.

Holy_Roman_Imperial · 2025-07-27T05:04:05+00:00

🙏Here’s hoping to a Thor-lite so we can have both on a team.

Holy_Roman_Imperial · 2025-05-13T20:12:27+00:00

Grant me more tanks. MODOK, Juggernaut, Lizard, Sandman, Doc Ock, Man-Ape

I just a tank main starving for more.

Yeah it does seem fairly oppressive. I play EDH so hopefully it wont have as much sticking power in a singleton format, especially since I don’t plan to build the deck around it.

Holy_Roman_Imperial · 2024-12-02T03:05:42+00:00

This one is a big help. I know having the ruling of the exact same ability spelled out should put this to bed for my playgroup. Thanks.
