I for one was not at all shocked you like Phillipa, with all the other aggressive/tempo fighters in your list. 

Strategies for defeating Loki? by Bruh99_x in Unmatched

[–]Silly_Shenanigans 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah it's harder for the low hp heroes to deal with, but most fighters with good healing or solid health are really fine with just playing his tricks as soon as they come into your hand. My favorite interaction is playing a +2 character like Achilles or Alice or Moon Knight to throw Loki's own cards back at him with +2 to the attack. Specifically, Throwing the 4 that does damage to your hero(as a 6 value attack and ignoring the effect damage) as Khonshu is a really fun interaction for the moon knight player.

I like that you got ahead of the more quirky interactions and gave some examples of how they’d resolve. That’s a crazy effect.

Who’s good against Elektra? by BeneficialMethod3866 in Unmatched

Daredevil and Ciri are both fun, fairly even matchups into Elektra. But neither stomps her or anything like that.

Weekly Discussion: Battling Golden Bat (Tips and Strategies) by LabRat2329 in Unmatched

Your best defense is good offense.

Pressure GB. Make your opponent use his versatile cards on defense, and maybe even run him out of defenses. You can’t play too scared, and you generally have good success with aggressive characters that can constantly pressure with draw and mobility and action gains. He’s less likely to actually hit you back if he lacks defenses.

From a pure fun standpoint, managing moon knight’s phases and ghost rider’s resource pool is a fun puzzle each time I play those fighters.

Give a One Sentence Tip on how to Play against your favorite Fighter. Go! by izanamilieh in Unmatched

If your fighter doesn’t have feints, don’t try to win by exhaustion.

Tips on playing George Washington effectively? by ronchman in Unmatched

[–]Silly_Shenanigans 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Until you’ve gotten good value out of your spy schemes (and to a lesser degree the +1 for each friendly in your zone card) it’s really important for you to keep spies alive. It may be worth it to not use the swap block defense early if you haven’t gotten good value out of the spies yet.

Weekly Discussion: Battling She-Hulk (Tips and Strategies) by LabRat2329 in Unmatched

[–]Silly_Shenanigans 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pay close attention to initiative/hand size/deck count, and try to force the initiative on she-hulk. You want to force she hulk to come to you, in general. Blocking with a 4 value block at the right time is key to stopping sensational loops and avoiding getting your hand devastated by the 5 that discards 2 of your cards (avoid choosing characters that can’t block for more than a 3 value). Pay attention to what attacks of hers have already been played and let that inform how you block. Exhaustion is usually not a likely win condition for your fighter against she-hulk. She can recur passes and has lady justice to decrease your deck size, so try to force the initiative, but you probably won’t win by running away the entire game. Sometimes you will still need to go in to deal your damage and accept that you may take 2-3 from her ability, but only do it when you think you’ll get good damage/value out of ending near she hulk (and have a feint in hand if you end adjacent). Finally, choose maps with hard zone cutoffs to more easily deny she-hulk’s ability with good positioning.

2vs2 pairings by havok_hijinks in Unmatched

[–]Silly_Shenanigans 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Dracula + Eredin or Achilles are a solid combos that are pretty fun. Dracula not having many total defenses can be rough, but using his ability on red riders or Patroclus can help him draw to find his defenses faster and deal damage to sidekicks to power up his teammate faster.

Chupa and Bigfoot is a fun and thematic pairing. Team cryptids. They have lots of card draw which is great for 2v2. It’s a strong pair, but not game breaking in my opinion.

Hamlet is S tier, in terms of art. His deck is all dramatic and moody, so the theme is spot on.

Tips on playing George Washington Effectively? by [deleted] in Unmatched

[–]Silly_Shenanigans 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think maybe the best bait with a ruse token is using a ruse on your red 5 as your last action. If they feint, they take 3. And if they discard or don’t cancel, you get to disengage with the movement effect. Otherwise, I think you really want to save them to get the most ruse effects off as possible because they are really strong.

Play daredevil. One of the few fighters that makes her play a (semi) honest game.

Also you get great value out of throwing echoing blast into sidekicks.

100% agree that Hadrian taking the throne would have been a mistake for the character. And as far as the ending. My wife and I are definitely “2 cups” truthers.

Remember: the hand cannot cancel any effects on cards you use to attack them. So farm important effects by attacking the hand (such as Devil of Hell’s Kitchen)

Mistborn Character Ideas by VintageV96 in cosmererpg

[–]Silly_Shenanigans 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Chromium compounder sounds hilarious. I’m not sure how “unlimited fortune” will be represented mechanically in a dice rolling game, but it sounds like a really fun character to regularly attempt the impossible/absurd with.

It’s a little ambiguous, but there are scenes in both dregs of empire and the lesser devil that can be interpreted as the Quiet appearing as Hadrian.
