I love the odd team themes, the ones that go completely against what you would normally want to do in a game. Both incarnations of the Squadron Supreme fit the bill with one wanting an empty hand and the second wanting to deal no breakthrough. The loner themes of Hellboy, Warbound, Hellfire Club, X-Statix, and others are amongst my favorite decks of all time.
However, there may be no stranger team theme than Injustice Gang handflood. What sort of lunatic would you have to be to just hand your opponent tons of options? Normally, it’d be suicide. With the Injustice Gang, though, you can turn that flood of cards into a source of strength.
My real love affair with IG was with the JLA version of the team. Sadly, I can’t use that version due to the requirements of the Resolution stating I need to stay in the most “modern” format which, for the Gang, is Modern. Will the new IG stand up to the old one? Doesn’t this sound a lot like my last post?
