Marvel Champions LCG - The Rise of Red Skull Campaign #1, Part 2 

That went good. Really fun to get 5 new villains. That’s the most I’ve missed.

Highlight for me was Steve as Hawkeye putting down BOTH Hulk and Thor after taking out 3 minions and damage to the villain. "Who is the strongest Avenger now Holmes?" Taskmaster doing 15 scheme in one phase is a warning to never say "We got this." Having all four ) pt Heroes will be devastating to both Zola and Red Skull and balances all the SHIELD tech picked up by Crossbones.

I'm liking the campaign. Standard was a bit too easy but playing it on expert is a lot better. Had just the right amount to challenge. All the villains was fun to play against. Zola and red skull would have to be my favorites.

Steven, I would consider putting three Skilled Strikes back in over the three Press the Advantages. I’m not too keen on PtA. It’s 1-cost for 2-damage (2 cards for 2), and if you meet its condition, it becomes basically 0 for 2, which is what Skilled Strike already is. Plus, Skilled Strike has the physical resource for Hulk instead of the mental from PtA. You already want to be doing basic attacks with Hawkeye, so it plays right into what you’re already doing. Plus, if you want to consider adding in Jarnbjorn, Skilled Strike has three different ways of being 0 for 2-damage (Hulk, Jarnbjorn, and its regular use). Jarnbjorn works nicely with Hawkeye because you already want to be doing basic attacks AND you have 6 arrows that are Attack events. Quincarrier can also be spent as a physical on a Jarnbjorn trigger, too. I think that’s your best way to maximize your damage output. The situation one-card “refund” from PtA just doesn’t seem worth it to me, if it even works. You already seem to be able to play one arrow each round and make a basic attack or recovery without ever triggering PtA. I’m honestly not sure that it’s a good card, especially with the mental resource in Aggression. (On the flip side, it’s Justice mirror counterpart, if you will, Clear the Area, seems quite decent.)

I’m not sure following random rules corrections even from the designers is worth the time until the actual rules or an FAQ are updated. Unless of course it’s a game breaking issue. It just causes an undue burden on the players, in a game that’s solely cooperative, to remember a host of random changes.

I actually enjoyed seeing you treading water for a couple rounds, as a bit of a change from the norm. Often I find the last turn of a game is a big rush to punch out max damage, and knowing that I probably wouldn’t last another round if I didn’t get there. The campaign adding different “objectives” is a really cool way to change that up, and I would guess that Taskmaster will feel hugely different as a stand-alone scenario as well.

Still playing through the campaign with different heroes myself, is pretty fun to see how they do. Know when the Kang scenario pack is supposed to be releasing? I got an email with a shipping notification for it sometime yesterday :)

Can you add the link to the discord into the video description for those, who didn't watch the stream live?

Hey guys, I hope you two had a great weekend. Wanted to update you on the Power Rangers Heroes of the Grid community Facebook page. After sharing your video, there has roughly 90 people that expressed interest in your token set within 2 days from posting. You may see some of them comment in your other videos. The hype is real. I am curious to know if you would be interested in doing a PDP like you did with Ashes so people could place pending orders. I can't wait for these tokens to be reprinted again and get them onto the table. Have a great day.

Did Steven ever come back with "i-ing" after "mock"? I would drop that "mock" on principle every time Mockingbird hits the table to demonstrate what happens when you leave a brother hanging.

Is there a deck list for Hawkeye somewhere, I would love to try it out

During your big removal of threat token from taskmaster. Capt. Should have been taken 1 less threat off. As he still had his obligation. Which gives us -1 to all your sats. Around the 1hr 26min mark or so. So taskmaster should have been at about +3 more or so.

Forgive my Marvel ignorance but isn't Taskmaster supposed to be the one to toy with his opponent before finishing them off, not the other way around, lol

"Search" is a keyword in the rules reference. It says to shuffle after searching a whole deck. Is the fact that it is only 5 cards the reason why you do not shuffle?

It’s a shame ffg are changing the quiver rule again to shuffle your deck after use. I get it, to keep consistency, but that hulk combo was great

Love the content, but these tokens are not making it easy to understand what's going on.

Can we have the discord link, please?

I got 5 on it -Luniz

Am I nuts or are you not allowed to tell your teammate what cards you have? When they lay out their hands and consider their play so thoroughly, for me at least, it comes off as easy and too 'optimal'. Good players should be able to achieve the same net result without being so transparent with one another.
