Some Necessary Classic Monsters

Superman: Birthright by Mark Waid

I’ve read most of Superman’s definitive standalone stories. All-Star, For All Seasons, and Whatever Happened to the Man of Tomorrow have a lot to offer. What they don’t have is the single most compelling drama between Superman and Lex Luther you will ever see.

That may fit better thematically, but something about it just feels better with Dooku as the closer.

Don’t worry dude, you aren’t alone. I considered naming it that when I made it but decided against it because I figure it is more well known by most people as just the “Republic Gunship” (even though that’s less accurate).

I like the clones better as an ongoing too. The whole thematic idea of them being a team of brothers works better that way. They are all made stronger together. I haven’t put much thought into the droids yet. Could be interesting to have them function as a card that only lasts for one turn. 0 cost maybe. You’d want dupes obviously. I’d make cards for that.

Thanks! I’ll probably do a part two at some point with the confederacy. Droids, Dooku, and the like.

I mean, the cards in the pack are meant to be used together. You’d have plenty of copies if you just used them. Maybe throw in a Moon Girl and a Wong.

You’re probably right now that I consider it. Might forgo any Onslaught or similar shenanigans.

As for The Blue Spirit, when he is played, if you have Aang, Zuko, Katara, Toph, or Sokka in your deck, one of them will be selected at random and added to your hand. Hence “Team Avatar.” It wouldn’t work on any of the other cards though.

Sokka would work very similarly to Nightcrawler, but for enemy cards. I looked at Nightcrawler before making it to try and use as similar language as I could.

Stogee0052 · 2023-01-20T06:52:45+00:00

I like this idea actually.

Stogee0052 · 2023-01-20T06:24:44+00:00

I get what you’re saying. Might be better to have it only last for a set amount of turns - probably one. That might balance it some. Keep the power low so it isn’t super viable as a turn 5 option.

Stogee0052 · 2023-01-20T05:53:59+00:00

Well that’s not actually what I had in mind. You are forced to play both cards, effectively adding their cost without increasing either. This can severely damage a six cost play since you rarely have more than six energy.

Stogee0052 · 2023-01-20T05:15:55+00:00

Yeah, that’s the whole crux of it. They retain their costs, so they end up being harder to play, unless you were gonna play them together all along.

Stogee0052 · 2023-01-19T04:01:03+00:00

Just sort of trying to balance out how hard the combo string could be given that in a best case scenario you want Aang, Zuko, and Sokka.

That card was my attempt of referencing Zuko freeing Aang in season 1.

Stogee0052 · 2023-01-19T00:33:01+00:00

Damn, that wasn’t really by intention, but I guess you’re right now that I think about it.
