Is ROGUE Still Fun In SOLO? | Chaps Chatting Champs Ep.1 | w/ 

Hey cool! Hope you enjoy it! 😄

@@GetUpandGame it was great! The first thing I heard (as a mostly solo player myself) was that Rogue was FOR multiplayer, so I haven’t put a lot of time into her yet. But that defense of her and showing how she has some great solo synergy as well is awesome. I loved it! Great topic choice (as always) and I loved the back and forth, great start to my day! Thank you!!

Yeah! There’s no denying you can do cooler stuff in MP, but for me she’s plenty fun and interesting enough to stay in the solo rotation. It’s so impressive how they manage to serve so many different audiences with these games!

Cards always return to their original decks discard pile when discarded.

Yep cards always return to their owner’s discard piles! This is especially helpful to remember with cards like Mysterio’s and Mystiques. When their cards that got put in your deck get discarded they go back to the encounter discard pile

Oh for sure. It’s too bad there wasn’t some way to work that into her solo play 😕. Before she came out I was so sure there would be an expensive Basic upgrade in her pack that gave Stalwart so at least the option would be available Thankfully the other options on her events are also super good and available. And being able to keep pulling To Me My X-men (and other cool cards) out of the discard pile is just so fun that I still find her more fun to play than a fair few others for solo ☺️

Thanks! Yeah as long as you build decks focused on either gaining different traits from your allies or planning to recycle events from your own discard pile (or both) she can still do some really awesome things!

Oh cool! Thanks Ragnot!

Thanks! 😄

Wow that is really well put. You’re absolutely right. There’s no denying that you’re missing something, you just gotta try to overlook it lol. Plus most of the time the other benefits on her events are better than drawing a card anyway (though I know in multiplayer she can potentially gain all of those benefits at once). It’s crazy that she’s as strong as she is in solo just by doing the things you say, the things she can do all on her own. She must be an absolute monster in multiplayer

Haha me too! Next time it’s my turn to put Brandt on the spot 😁

Thanks Eric!

That is a fantastic idea!! The one time I was able to play Rogue in 2 player being able to gain Stalwart for a moment was clutch so it’s really cool you’ve thought of a way to have access to that. Now that you mention it, I really wish they had baked into the rules of Touched that if you chose not to attach it to anything she gained Stalwart. Oh well lol And it’s really nice to be able to build Traits into your deck without relying on your allies coming up in the right order Very cool! Thank you sharing that! 😃 Ooo and how does your Protection tournament work??

@@GetUpandGame You're welcome. 🙂 As far as running my aspect tournaments is concerned (currently with Protection) is that I pick 5 or 6 villains to go up against. It can be convenient to use the villains from a campaign, but I don't always do it that way. The goal is to generally have the later villains be more challenging than the earlier villains. Then I have every hero go up against the first villain. All heroes who win continue to the next villain. At the end, any heroes remaining are the champions of the tournament. I have some other rules, too, but that's the gist of it. I also allow "soft" victories and then differentiate between those soft victories and dominant or earned victories so that I can truly judge the champions at the end. I track it all in a spreadsheet. I'd be happy to share that with you if you'd like. For me personally, it’s what motivates me to play Marvel Champions regularly (or most any other game). Before I started doing this with my games, I found myself getting bored with the games once I played a couple of times. This gives me constant motivation to make new decks and refine them throughout the tournament. I will sometimes allow heroes a re-do if I realize I made a poor deck in the first round or just haven’t figured out the villain yet (otherwise, the early heroes are at a significant disadvantage).

Thanks! Haha anything I can do to help you enjoy the game more is pretty much why I’m here! 😀

👻🏍️🔥

I’m sure we’ll get there eventually lol. Whether it’s through a Midnight Sons cycle or if they go the Marvel Knights route for a Daredevil wave (though Defenders feels more likely)

Glad to beat it! Nice! There’s just so much potential there 🥰

Oh man that Summoning Spell stuff sounds awesome! I really love how you can use the villains for useful traits. Almost feel like cheating 😆

Thanks! Well if it were any other game I might be sad to here that, but for LotR I’ll make an exception 😆. Such a great game, and they’re doing a great job with the rereleases 👍

I played so much LOTR back in the day when it first released. I wish I had more time for it still.

Thank you so much! Yeah he really is, I’m super glad to be working with him!

Thank you! 😃

Thanks Nick! It’s nice to be pleasantly surprised once in a while. Instead of the other thing 😅

@GetUpandGame oh, poor Valkyrie. She was an early release, right? Maybe for your next subscriber video, you could do characters that could use a redesign and how they might be updated?

@@njh113 sadly she was in wave 4 so they really shoulda known better 🤣. Really not sure what happened there lol I’ve actually discontinued the 100 subscriber specials at 2000. I’m still gonna do those kinds of videos but I didn’t want to have to stick to a certain number anymore lol. I really need to get cracking on the multiverse stuff so I need my schedule to be more flexible. That’s a great idea for a video!

@GetUpandGame totally understandable!! I figured that every 200 might become untenable, especially if your subscriber numbers really start to ramp up, but I wasn't about to suggest you stop :-P

Haha that does sound pretty awesome 😎
