And the train just keeps on rollin’. I haven’t had the chance to play on MWS recently due to the primary Darkseid server being down which generally means no one even bothers with it since the only alternative is the armpit that is MWSgames.net.
So, instead of doing Crisis decks like I’d originally intended, I’m stuck with decks I’ve played a lot of. I’ve been running a Crime Lords deck that is at least similar to the one below since MUN came out. I was a big fan of the Lords way back when but how is their newest incarnation?

Basically, the only way I could figure out how to do the Crime Lords and even hope to fit into the Resolution guidelines was by going Red Skull legend. To help you see why Skull was the only option, here’s the rules I’ve set for myself.
The Great Vs. Resolution Guidelines:
“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.”
If you go with an army version of Crime Lords, I wouldn’t have the card draw since Birthing Chamber is DC. Direct attack isn’t any good since Crime Lords don’t have enough pumps to make the 50% team/char-stamped non-characters requirement. The only particularly good choice that had any chance (and, even then, only fit by a nose) was Skull legend.
