Mobilize

True Love

There is not a day in my online Vs. System deckbuilding that I don’t thank UDE for not only making Mobilize but for putting it in both universes. The card is what makes my Resolution possible and is simply beautiful on all counts, like some angel of card design reached down and placed it on the earth.

Uhh… to make this post worthwhile, how about you guys? What is the one card that you are the absolute most thankful for having in Vs. System? This probably would have been better around, say, Thanksgiving but I’m asking now instead. Let me know your answers via the comments section.

The Great Vs. Resolution #5: Warbou— I mean, Marvel Defenders

Ah. Finally I return to the thing that brought me my claim to fame: the sheer idiocy of trying to build a mono-deck for each affiliation. I’ve taken WAY too much out of my time talking about how surprised I am at the site’s success and how I’m now finally getting my first physical Vs. cards (EA Armageddon is happy that he’s going to have some friends to hang out with) so it’s far past time to review my next affiliation.

If anyone is tuning in for the first time, here’s the rules:

All characters must share a printed affiliation, at least 50% of non-character cards must be team or character-stamped, remaining cards must be from the same universe as the affiliation for the deck, deck must be in as recent of a format as possible.

I built this deck right after I built my Illuminati deck. I wanted that deck to have its counterpart which is, of course, a deck based on the Hulk. Sadly, a World War Hulk-based deck won’t be playable until after Marvel Universe comes out. Poor Hulk started to cry when I told him that. He’s really quite the emotional lug. However, I was able to cheer the big guy up by reminding him that there’s already a way I can build a deck around him. Hulk has the Marvel Defenders to help him out and even though they aren’t a bunch of gladiatorial aliens, they still get the job done.
