So, after receiving a shipment of Marvel Knights and X-Statix cards from Baldman and Paypal finally posting so I could order my two Avengers boxes and ten Fantastic Four starter sets, I’ve decided to take a moment to talk about the metagame of the Kalee household.
My brothers, who are pretty newbish as far as Vs. is concerned, are primarily playing the same Avengers deck they built last week. It works pretty well for them, especially when I help them out in figuring out the best move. The deck can team attack or regular attack, it has Reservist so it doesn’t care about character-flood, it has some search via Falcon, Avengers Assemble, and Jarvis, and it has Vision who can negate pretty much any combat pump (I hate that guy…). It’s really quite the easy, noob friendly deck so that’s what they run.
There’s also the Marvel Knights deck my younger brother built yesterday. I haven’t looked through it but from what I saw during a game between him and older bro, he has way too many characters and equipment. However, this is mostly a symptom of all the generic pumps already being used up. The multiple Fantastic Four starters should fix that via their 20 Flying Kicks and whatnot. He also, for some strange reason, isn’t running Borrowed Blade in combination with the 5-drop Punisher. For some reason an 11/11 with range on turn 5 doesn’t thrill him…
