Deckbuilding for Marvel Champions| My Weird(???) Method 

Awesome! I'm glad you liked it. I'm doing a follow-up video too with the changes I made to Hawkeye after deck testing!

Thanks! I always love that kind of thing too!

I have a lot of fun building decks! I'd say it's more than half the fun I have with this or ANY card game!

Thank you!! I love building decks, even when they're no great! Figuring out what a hero wants (even if I'm wrong, which has totally happened), testing, tweaking. It's part of the fun of the game for me! If you haven't seen it yet, watch Hawk' Talk which I published recently. It's a follow-up to this video about the changes I made after testing. My best advice to help you get into deckbuilding is START deckbuilding. Focus first on evaluating what (you think) a hero wants so you know what cards to look for (even if you don't know those cards names yet). It's always hardest the first time you do it, but it starts to get easier hen yo know the cards better. And if you don't want to start that way, study the decks you're pulling from MCDB and try to figure out why certain cards were included! Oh I know and hate that apostrophe in 'Pool (and certainly don't mind a nitpick) LOL. There are a ton of cards in Arkham Horror whose names are phrases ("Let me handle this", "I'm outta here!", etc.) which ArkhamDB sorts first (as it should because that's correct). It drives me crazy though because I'll be looking in the L's for "Let me handle this" and so on, sometimes forgetting what I'm looking for is a phrase. In my physical collection I sort by the first letter, but while using the database I've missed cards thinking "Oh, I thought that was a Guardian card, I guess not" because it was at the top of the list alphabetically. So sorting 'Pool as a P is just my small way of rebelling against cards (and aspects) which begin with an apostrophe or quotation marks LOL

Thanks for watching!!

Thanks! Did you watch the follow up too (Hawk' Talk)? It discusses the changes I made after testing!

Thanks! Deckbuilding is at least half the fun of this game for me (maybe more than half LOL).

Thanks! I've been using "PB&J" since 2001 LOL

Thanks! Yeah allies are so powerful I never like to have fewer than six! I made this video back in December right before my Hawkeye run through Rise of Red Skull. Saving all 4 captive allies in Taskmaster made a HUGE difference in that run, although they are pretty under-costed. I'm glad they "fixed" that in Project Wideawake!

Thanks! I'm working on a follow-up video to talk about Hawkeye post-testing; I've played 8 Klaw games with him and 4 Crossbones so far. After 3 or for more I'll move on to Collector 1. One thing I'm gong to talk about is flipping down to alter-ego more often than I expected to, so Down Time can be useful (and Meditation might actually be viable). There are a couple other things I want to touch on too!

Venom is on my "Revisit" list (from another video), and I'll definitely be playing him this year. Angel Aggression can deal HUGE damage! Always a lot of fun!!!!

@@solomarvelchampion yesss!! i even tried out venom agression 0 allies but that wasnt good idea haha so i put back 4 in! but i still lost to klaw! i know pple hate him but i like absorbent man expert with exodus as modular scheme as try out! i did Beat that one with venom! but angel i did beat klaw! Nova agression aeriel is really good! in fact i Made a deck to play with either angel or nova wirh the same deck! so its funny cause im playing mostly agression.. i just started few months ago and started with justice spider man then tried leadership wich i really like! spefially captain america and second ciclops! but now im playing the agression venom or nova/angel more! and ive never played protection! but.. i have drax yet to open to try my first protección deck with him! ill try collector 1! dodnt know it was like that! i havent open the galaxy box yet

@@jorgedawsonwetto25 Nova is one that I only play in Protection. I love What Doesn't Kill Me (he has so many Wild resources you never really have to worry about the physical requirement) and Ever Vigilant for extra readies! I don't hate Absorbing Man, I just don't play him very often (coming soon though, because I'm running Hawkeye through Rise of Red Skull). Someone I play a lot who MOST people hate is Collector 1. I LOVE how he makes you build and/or play differently: "Instead of attacking this turn I really need to exhaust to free up a card from the collection". Galaxy's Most Wanted is BRUTALLY difficult and a lot of people will tell you to skip it, but there are a lot of fun moments in the box! I think Rocket and Groot are great heroes in their own ways. As a final villain Ronan is incredibly difficult, but still worth playing from time to time! Check out my Two Turn Win deck against Ronan!! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-GIGoe3-GOxo.html

Thanks, and thanks for watchig! Yeah True-Solo for sure, which just comes from an earlier statement that "this video will come from a true solo perspective". Here's an interesting thing, I've only played 5 MP games period, so I never even thought to say "Lean into strengths in MP and Cover weaknesses in solo" LOL, but I mention it as an option a little later. As far as using certain cards and not using others for this build - long story short - a software problem left me with 8 minutes of audio for a 20 minute video of building this deck in MarvelCDB. I had to scrap that segment, but in it I talked about Global Logistics specifically (which I also think is the best SHIELD card), saying that you pretty much need a full SHIELD commitment to run it, and since I had done that in my Scarlet Witch Deck I just didn't want to build another SHIELD deck. (The Scarlet SHIELD: marvelcdb.com/decklist/view/31515/the-scarlet-s-h-i-e-l-d-1.0) That was a general statement that most heroes kits are their strongest cards, and we know that there are several for which that isn't true. I did miss an opportunity to say the reason for that (imo) is because they often have some internal synergies to play off of. Arrows are definitely Hawkeye's internal synergy - finding, playing and paying for them - with only 1 card in his kit not doing so (Mockingbird). I'm working on a Hawkeye Leadership deck which cheats Weapon X into play with Build Support, and Gamora and Ghost Spider with Make the Call and Call for Backup to dig out arrows, but that seemed too far out for a "general thoughts" video, so I went with a very general Justice build to get my ideas across.
