In this video I review Domino, one of the two new Marvel Champions heroes from NeXt Evolution. What makes her tick? How does she work? What decks does she like? And how do I rate her?

For me it felt like I was thematically playing as her powers rather than her. Being the luck manipulation to make sure the right thing would come up when she needed it.

Definitely Great Content. Love the reflection on Domino and "Luck control" (or lack of Luck and more planning) and comparison vs some other Heroes. But sure, it "could" be viewed as the "game mechanic" version of thematic "luck". :) Love the way when you chatting regarding 'card value', that you "casually" came to "Busted" :) LOL It gets so much worse if you focus more on a "pure-wild-mana-cycling-deck" (except "White Fox").

Great analysis! I feel like that was a very balanced and thorough discussion that helped me understand the character beyond the current hype. Thanks!! For future content, I would enjoy scenario/modular content! Especially content about deck building and/or niche cards that work well against the scenario. For example, the way One By One is awesome against Ultron. Something giving cards or deck builds to consider when going up against a scenario would be fun!

I haven’t played a ton with her yet. But I definitely felt her lack of control kept me from flipping to alter ego at times, where she shines. I’ve been having a blast with her though.

I played twice with her and I can't say she's at the top for me. Too much planning every player phase having too be ware of what's on your hand and what's on top of your deck/discard pile. She's definitely on the more complex side and I need to play more to get more familiar with her style. I love your review method btw. Great video!
@VillainTheory
@VillainTheory 10 месяцев назад

You are absolutely correct. I slept on Hope Summers. I needed to pause the video and go re-jigger my Protection deck. Thanks pal. I thought I was done for the night.

Haha! She's good. Hope the Prot deck runs even better now.
@JJEMcManus
@JJEMcManus 10 месяцев назад
@@VillainTheory my thesis is that, at least when learning her tempo, leaning into the posse meme is essential. You said Hope was another posse member and I was all, “yes, please”. How it will play depends on how long it takes me to wade thru all the business deliveries clogging my office. Mondays are such a joy.

When I saw the length of the video I thought it was going to be very heavy and boring, but she definitely needs deep analysis because of her mechanics. The more I play her the more things I discover, my goal has been to keep Jackpot around as much as possible, in my hand, on top of the library, discard pile, or even under The Painted Lady. My priority is to get Probability Field as soon as possible, if it doesn't come soon, then I'll hang on with some allies and gun(s), and it's cool that you can pick it up from the discard pile, either with her AE ability or with Pip. Once you get all the parts, she is crazy good, cleans the table and keeps it clean and hits the villain hard. As you can see, I'm enjoying her very much, with leadership at the moment, but have my eyes on a Protection deck.
@VillainTheory
@VillainTheory 10 месяцев назад
Haha! Yeah there was a lot to analyze. I wanted her video to be shorter than Cable's (his was long because I went through all the side schemes) but Domino has so much going on. Hope the future Protection deck goes well!
@ryanrasmussen2124
@ryanrasmussen2124 10 месяцев назад
I’m having a lot of fun with Domino! I created a pretty weird leadership deck based on using Call For Aid to completely mill through her deck until only Jackpot! is left (as well as trigger card abilities when discarded from the top of the deck). While it is far from consistent, I’m surprised how well it works (I’ve beaten expert Rhino and Klaw). As long as she gets either of her supports out relatively early game, it’s pretty easy to get her other upgrades out and begin making use of the lone guaranteed Jackpot. I should also mention, I’m a pretty casual player so I wouldn’t be surprised if there’s something in the new rules reference guide that makes things resolve differently and breaks this deck haha.
@VillainTheory
@VillainTheory 10 месяцев назад
Call for Aid is so fun with her, I've dabbled with it. Sounds great and I think it works just fine in the current rules!
@QuiveringEye
@QuiveringEye 10 месяцев назад
One of my favorite heroes, definitely. Cards like probability field are perfect for the "luck feel", but stacking the deck is not. Still, I don't mind because I love it.
@VillainTheory
@VillainTheory 10 месяцев назад
Nice! She's not quite clicked like that for me obviously but I still really enjoy her.

@ynni 10 месяцев назад
I played her against Juggernaut yesterday and did 23 damage in one turn because I drew Jackpot, swapped it to the top of the deck - which at this point consisted of 2 cards - and then kept on discarding and shuffling it back in when I used her Pistols/Sharpshooter, A Good Workout and attack with Probability Field. It really felt like Domino vs Juggernaut at the end of Deadpool 2.

I wasn't a fan of Honed Technique with her. I found that it's just not worth setting up. It's an expensive card and there's almost always an identity card in hand I'd rather play. Then you have to stuff a bunch of aggression events in, and there's not really any room for that since she essentially has a 20+ card identity before adding anything
@VillainTheory
@VillainTheory 10 месяцев назад
I'm curious is this in solo or multiplayer? It's my opinion that Honed Technique is very rarely ever necessary in solo play on any hero, but it's generally always very good in multiplayer.
@heroicskeleton1566
@heroicskeleton1566 10 месяцев назад
@VillainTheory I think I was playing 2 handed? Don't quite remember. But to your point, yeah I think that makes sense. You have a bit more of a luxury to set all of that up in higher player counts. Maybe there's a way to do it, it just felt pretty awkward. Maybe someone else can figure out a version that works
@tromdial7719
@tromdial7719 10 месяцев назад
I've got a few multiplayer games of her under my belt now, and as fun as she is she makes my head hurt a bit while taking long turns. The last deck I made with her that worked well was a cheap and eventless protection aspect that slimmed her deck down to basically her kit events, The Posse, Professor X, Preservation, and Digging Deeps by the end of the fight so she could focus on gunning her damage in. @VillainTheory will you be doing reviews on all the heroes? Player Side Schemes also change quite a bit of the game, especially Call for Backup in any blue or Cable deck.
@VillainTheory
@VillainTheory 10 месяцев назад
Sounds fantastic! And I do plan to touch on other heroes but I don't know if it will be to this extent or not - I'll have to see how it goes in terms of time! But they will 100% be covered to some extent.

She needs another way to rig the top card of the deck. You get 1 free rig but every other ability is kinda rng

I think it's the most difficult character among deck building and during play. I'm worried about receiving encounter cards often because I discard a lot of cards, is that okay?
@VillainTheory
@VillainTheory 10 месяцев назад
I didn't talk about that in the review but it's worth discussing, great question. In my opinion, her discarding effects are so strong you should simply use them as much as possible. The strength of her discarding cards outweighs the downside of an earlier encounter card.
@leewoobok30
@leewoobok30 10 месяцев назад
@@VillainTheory But it would be stupid to increase the deck size to 50, right? Like every card games, players need to minimize the deck size and increase the probability of picking a key card. I'm curious about your opinion
@VillainTheory
@VillainTheory 10 месяцев назад
For me it depends on the character and deck. There are 2-3 heroes I quite regularly go to 45-50 cards, and decks that rely on cards like No Quarter or "To Me, My X-Men!" like it - but for most I do try to keep it down to 40. For some characters I don't think it matters very much, but I think Domino's cards are so good you do want to minimize the deck to maximize the chance of finding her key cards. So, I don't think it would be stupid, BUT I would advise against it just to delay an encounter card.

Domino feels too powerful and too flexible. There is a skill element, and there is setup required to make her function at her top level, but she is so strong that she doesn't need to run optimally to crush villains. The pistols are too good. Probability field is too good. Jackpot is too good. I suppose it doesn't matter much as long people are having fun, but I find this character boring because the biggest challenge is optimizing a turn that's too long and doesn't actually need to be optimized for you to win.
