it is not just you laura has been my favorite x-men character for a while now and i was nervous when i saw her silhouette. was skeptical that they could do her justice and then the pack came out and it was PERFECT. FLAWLESS absolutely fckn NAILED who laura is i love her to pieces. almost as many pieces as she cuts the villains into
I’m loving every play with X23 regardless of the aspect. Initially I thought Honey Badger was going to be a Vivian-like ally; a card that is essential to the hero working. I was so wrong. There is so much in the X23 kit that a late entry HB only adds to the carnage you’ve been wreaking all along. Sisterhood, on the other hand is essential to really kick off those buzzsaw rounds. Domino or X23 as hero pack of the year? I keep going back and forth. Luckily there’s ample time between now and new years to decide.
Going back to the basic heroes after these recent expansions and hero packs.. they all feel so.. plain. Iron Man used to be my favorite, but now I play his armor piece puzzle and I find myself longing for the complexities of any of the new ones. Makes you wonder what the state of the game is going to be in a few years.
This a great series. I am fully addicted to this game because of you. Could you do Rocket Racoon and Groot...also Antman and Wasp? I'm sure you're already planning on it.
Thank you! And thank you for all the Coffees! Yes, all the backlog is planned and will be covered! I’m just slow, ha! And I also do solo games rules, and I try to split time between that and Marvel. Ant-man and Wasp should be pretty soon. Unfortunately, Rocket and Groot are at the end of the line because I originally started with Gamora. But Rocket is probably my favorite Marvel character in general, so I’m definitely going to get there eventually!
I've watched all of your Marvel Champions content several times. Clearly you play this game a lot. Who is your go to villian(s) for testing out new hero packs?
Thanks for watching!! It was Crossbones for a long time, with the occasional Taskmaster. But in the mutant waves, mostly Sabertooth, or I’ll just sort of pick a random mutant one.
