I had the wrong idea about Rocket and Groot at first, I thought the power steal only happened once and it just seemed bad, but now it's a must-pull for me (especially as I love the characters)
Yeah I think bullseye should replace gambit since it will discard more cards which is more negative power afflicted more positive power given to morbius and then pops the discard effects
I'm trying my Dino Discard again, with Victoria Hand. It's a Collector Discard (no Drac/Apoc) uses Swarms, you might want some other card generators in there, too (I like using Moongirl) I haven't played it in a long time, as was definitely a bit of a Meme. I think the tools are there now to make a better version, however. So you create lots of stuff in hand, and you either hold for dino, or you play out. If you are lucky in being able to make enough swarms, you can have your collector/morbius buff up, while having a Dino on board, too. I have even had games where I manged to copy the dino with mystique, but you usually need some location ramp for this kind of thing. Bullseye would go very well into this, as you want to make a lot of swamrs, and if you are not playing them to buff dino, Bullseye can discard them all again, buff up collector and morbius, and attack the board. Yeah dude, I think my deck might finally be looking like something. I do want to see if the Hand buff goes on to scorn and apoc, as if they do, she might bring back a hybrid deck again, like when those Helicarrier decks were running around.
You are right about this going into Afflication Hevo, too. I am of the beleif that Affliction Hevo is going to be brought back in 2025. I think they are going to Buff high Evolutionary so that a Tempo/Mid range sort of deck with Sunspot/Nebula (using R+G to pair with these 1's, but also Bruce Banner) and it will be more about cheating out Abomination for free, then maybe taking She Hulk as she can be cheated out, too. I do think there are clues pointing towards this taking place. For one they are releasing cards that clearly would do well in an affliction hevo deck. The first premium season pass variant is also Abomination. There are more clues I can't remember right now, too. It does look like they're trying to promote this style of Hevo deck, and for it to really work they need to buff high Evolutionary. I think Once they buff this guy up, we're gonna have a proper, strong affliction version, as we haven't seen that for a good while. Just look at some of the up and coming cards, too. There are more that would suit these kinds of decks.
Ajax/Anti Venom is already a really good deck right now,, maybe even the best mid range deck. he glaring issue is that everyone and their Mother will be running Luke Cage tomorrow, so we won't get a proper indication of what this is going to be like. I do think that once LC dies back off a hit, it will go into this mid range deck that is already very strong. I don't have Ajax yet, so not been able to play it. I'm trying to hold out as Ajax has a bundle coming towards the end of January. This also gives it time for the LC meta to have died down, although I think it lines up with Bullseye, that will likely bring LC back out again. I do think at some point the affliction system will need revisited, as LC just being able to turn off everything is a bit much. This off switch has allowed them to print power affliction cards, however. if they were to change LC, bring out some other affliction counters (so it would take a couple of cards to get the same "off switch" effect, probably split over 3 cards TBH. They would also likely have to tone down some of the affliction cards, as they were only printed so strong, because Luke cage exists.
that could be good but I just don't see a 4 6 being that good if you need to stack a lane(typically with low power cards) for it to work. I suppose I could be biased as I think it is lame
I think bullseye was balanced before, where you wouldn't really be able to run drac and apoc. Been very excited for bullseye, hope this doesn't get it or something else nerfed
I love the reference that Ares is literally just the card game War
10:35 real synergies with thor 😂

yeah I am very excited for that card easily my favorite of the ones coming out
Dang the cost reduction of bullseye makes it actually available in discard, because it doesn’t compete with Dracula
Yeah now competing with moonlniggt/gambit and I think it's just better
Love some of your takes on these new cards
Moonstone seems underwhelming overall but Morbius into Mystique into Moonstone could help when Dracula doesn’t show
I think that would be niche likely won't find a home there
Amazing perspective I never would’ve thought of ares as a mill card
Antman, Captain America and Punisher be like; Hmm, Moonstone
Bullseye seems automatic for discard decks. Victoria hand + swarms + collector is a new wrinkle. Maybe competes with Gambit for deck space
Yeah I think bullseye should replace gambit since it will discard more cards which is more negative power afflicted more positive power given to morbius and then pops the discard effects

i didnt even think that swarm would be generated in hand that could be a very interesting deck
@@blazehawkgaming37 I am pretty sure swarm will count, as they become a new card when discarded.
Cool and different views

It is either that or there will be a rise of a affliction deck not using high evo that could use the new card lasher
I didn't think about Ares mill! If the opponent has no cards in deck he does just kinda win automatically, no?
that would also be correct
They really give base Bullseye have the Tracer Butt pose huh

yeah especially since shadow king now ignores luke cage he literally just hard counters this archtype
Ravona + Moonstone will go hard
@@DexterG909 whoa. Never thought of that
that could be good but I just don't see a 4 6 being that good if you need to stack a lane(typically with low power cards) for it to work. I suppose I could be biased as I think it is lame
You kinda sold me on bullseye. I am opening that week and now probably wont be too sad if I get him.
Very good insight. Dodnt think of ares mill oh no
I think bullseye was balanced before, where you wouldn't really be able to run drac and apoc. Been very excited for bullseye, hope this doesn't get it or something else nerfed
I feel like there will be a nerf for that card or a card around it it just seems very strong
Imo r&g helps set up a professor x lane
Moonstone create cerebro 6?
I have eyed that and that could work but I doubt it will be good
