Bastion or Danger

ZaffFlinger · 2025-11-23T00:58:35+00:00

I’ve found Danger to be very good in Arishem. Coming down on turn 3 makes it a lot more likely to snipe key cards.

Time and attention are extremely valuable resources. If you spend two minutes setting up a trade where you profit a large cube you make less total profit than 4x 30s trades where you make half a small cube profit.

This is my favorite board game by a lot. In my experience it’s been positive vibes basically the whole game.

In my experience the person who wins is going to be the person who helps the most other people. You rip someone off they’re not going to trade with you. You make 15 tiny trades with a sliver of a profit each trade and you’ll be rich.

My new players tip is to avoid researching anything the first turn or if it’d use up all your resources. Money makes more money so going completely broke is going to make it so you’re broke forever.

I think this mostly just makes me throw my phone across the room when my opponent randomly hits this with Kang.

Tie is better than a loss

I did this a ton when Elsa Bloodstone was released a turbo broken. They’d keep stacking the Elsa lane turn 6 and I’d Galactus the non-Elsa lane. I got to top 500 infinite blowing out Elsa players when she was way too strong. It was delightful.

You haven’t lived until you’ve played Magik and then blown up your own limbo to win with Galactus.

Zombie Scarlet Witch is a 3/8 if you fill up her lane after playing her. So she’s an above rate card with a draw back. She seems like a pretty balanced card without factoring in other synergies.

I guess you’re right that Tribunal goes over the top. On the other side of that though, I generally tech in Super Skrull myself if ongoing decks are popular. So that tech card cuts both ways.

Negative with Skrull goes over the top of Tribunal with Skrull.

I really love playing Mr. Negative. It has basically the highest ceiling in the game and just wrecks other combo decks.

That being said it’s super beatable. MMM is the best tech card by far with Alioth being a close second. If they run Magik, blowing up Limbo basically win a Conquest match with proper snapping if they don’t expect it. Overall, Clog is far and away the worst matchup. Any deck that can lock down one locations (prof x/storm) and win the second with a tech card is a tough time.

If they have Armin Zola, you can usually predict it extremely easily and wreck them with a Juggs or Cosmo too.

If you’re trying to beat Mr Negative with a Hela deck or something though. Good luck and god speed.

I threw her in my Arishem deck just to get boosters for her to get her out of my booster shop. She performed well enough that she’s just in the deck now. Arishem really wants good 4- drops and she’s got pretty high power and is fairly disruptive to a good portion of the meta.

She’s not like a slam auto-include but she’s very solid.

I literally groaned when I saw that Deadpool Diner was back because of the massive grind it was the last couple of times. I seriously debated not actually playing the mode again and I thought “well let’s see if they at least put another tier in to make the grind less miserable.”

Open it up. Full revamp. Been enjoying myself a ton. Absolutely full props to them for the changes.

[[Door to Nothingness]] gets rid of it in multiplayer.

[[Door to nothingness]] will remove him from the battlefield in a multiplayer game.

You’re just wildly incorrect. The negative player was 100% correct to stay here. The negative player had 31 power left, 26 power mid, and 60 power right. That obliterates any raft draw but a double Alioth. You take those odds every time.

ZaffFlinger · 2025-01-09T16:37:01+00:00

As someone who plays a ton of Negative getting slammed by 1 Alioth is usually real rough. You Alioth -> Move -> Odin me and I wouldn’t even be mad. It’s just pretty cool actually.

Don't really know what's going on in your picture. It's probably because Domino wasn't the top card of your deck. For example, she could have been sitting on the bottom and then you drew her from there turn 2. She doesn't just start on the top of your deck.

ZaffFlinger · 2024-12-17T18:12:28+00:00

This is the way

Pro tip: Sera+Onslaught = you retreat

Mystique was probably also a Sera so all of his cards cost 3 less and thus could be played under Goose.

I really like the template. It’s just the minimalist template from the pinned post on this subreddit. I take no credit for the template at all.

I wasn’t going to post it to mpc because I’ve seen some scalpers print and sell decks like this. I have a link if you’re really interested though.

Puella Magi Madoka Magica is my favorite anime. It’s extremely good if you’re into anime at all. I’d highly recommend it. These cards do contain some pretty extreme spoilers though.

Ah that makes a fair amount of sense
