X-men update: I know there might be a lot of people getting into the game because of the X-men, and now that we’ve seen all of the cards from the first X wave I can confidently say that if you really just want to play the X-men you can totally just get the Core Set and then go straight to Mutant Genesis.
Between that Campaign Expansion and all of the following hero packs there is more than enough support to build really solid decks for the X-men.
From there my recommendations would be similar. If you want more villains, Rise of Red Skull is still a really nice pick up, though Sinister Motives would also be a good second Campaign Expansion if you prefer Spider-man villains.
After that I still think the second wave of heroes is the way to go for pure deck building cards.
You have the ABSOLUTE BEST Marvel Champions content out there, I just wish you would post more, there's so much new stuff that has me confused ha ha
@@jakobvarsson840 oh thank you so much for the kind words! Ha I wish I would post more too, life just got way too busy and haven’t had any time for videos unfortunately. I’m still planning on getting back to it someday
I’m always happy to answer any questions though so if theres anything in particular that’s confusing at the moment I’m happy to try and help!
Save stress, save less- buy everything.
- my motto 🤣
Lol I’m the same way for sure!
Now that's funny! 😂🤣😂🤣
Another viewer here who also has everything, but I found your advice very solid. I would like to point out for your less experienced viewers that the "Honed Technique" card that comes with Nova can really enhance a lot of those older Aggression cards. For example, from the Core Box, it can turn "Uppercut" (3 for 5 Damage), a borderline card at best, into a "Swinging Web Kick" (3 for 8 Damage) that ANY character can play. It can also turn "Relentless Assault" into 7 Damage with Overkill (although admittedly this is trickier as you HAVE to pay for it with a Mental & Physical resource.). If you have the Ms. Marvel pack, "Melee" can become 3 for 6 & 6 damage, and that's just bonkers! So if Aggression is your style, Nova can do much to enhance it (and he's also a fun hero to play imo.) Keep making the great videos! 👍
Thanks for sharing your thoughts! I can 100% see where you’re coming from and think it’s great advice for anyone reading!
My thinking in putting Nova last was a little more to do with No Quarter and Fluid Motion. No Quarter probably works better in a deck packed full of good aggression cards, and Fluid Motion really benefits from a nice assortment of cheap attack cards. But you can certainly use them right out of the box and still get good value. Plus as you say Nova is just fantastic all around.
Thanks so much for the kind words and solid advice!
Your content is top notch, great overviews, great recommendations. Appreciate you
Thank you so much!! And I appreciate you leaving such an encouraging and kind comment 🙂
Whew, glad I saw this video before going deep with the expenses. Getting everything certainly is too expensive for me, but the recommendations you gave for the jump-off points and basic necessities allow me to map out what I need to buy over time! So thank you!
That’s so great to hear! Thank you for watching, and especially for taking the time to leave a comment. It’s very encouraging to know that this was helpful for someone ! 🙂
Watching after I already own them all. 😁
Haha well thank you kindly!
Your content is seriosuly good and very helpful. Thank you!
Well thank YOU for watching! 🙂
Hello from England 🏴. Great video. This is the first of your videos I have watched and it was very very useful. I have been playing this game since it came out, I’m not the best player or deck builder but this video has helped a lot so I will be watching all your Marvel Champions videos and all your LOTR LCG videos too as I play that too.
Hello! Thank you so much for the kind words! I’m so happy to have you with the channel and I hope to hear more from you as you watch through my stuff! ☺️
This is exactly the info I was looking for, it provides great guidance. Had to go through a lot of out of focus content from other channels before finding this
Oh good! I hope it’s helpful for you! ☺️
Interesting take. I thing I agree with almost everything. But I would bump The Hood over Kang. I waited because I thought exactly what you described about the hood but I completely disagree. I should've bought the Hood way sooner. It is super fun and really easy to customize the difficulty by picking which modulars you use.
That’s totally fair. I’m going to pin this comment because I think it’s a good alternative perspective that people should see.
For my part, I went the way I did because I do think a good portion of what comes with the Hood is on the higher end of the difficulty scale, but you are absolutely correct that you can make it what you want it to be. I also tend to like the Kang scenario a bit more, and I’ve gotten the impression that the community does as well. But the Hood is also very fun and I can easily see recommending it earlier than I did.
Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts!
As someone who just got the core last week I really appreciate a video like this so thank you!
Oh nice! No problem! ☺️
And welcome to the game!!

Love this video. Keep doing it.
Thank you very much for the kind words and the encouragement! I surely will! 😁
Very informative. Thank you
Thanks for watching! 😄
As someone who just got into the game recently, your videos have been super helpful. I've been watching your videos back to back.
Oh awesome! Welcome to the game and to the channel! Always happy to hear when my stuff is helpful ☺️. Some of it’s a little dated at this point so if you have any questions please feel free to ask!
Thanks for the detail and for updating with the X-men release. It really helped me plan by buying strategy
No problem! Glad to hear it was useful for you! ☺️
Thank you so much for the super chat!!
Thanks soooooo much.
Sure thing! I hope it’s helpful, even if it’s a bit outdated 🙂
I have absolutely everything (up ti psylocke and angel at this point) but I love watching videos like this
Nice! Yeah I badly need to update it since so much stuff has come out, and I would definitely make some different recommendations now in light of Next Evolution. Thanks so much for watching!
Great videos
Thank you very much! 😀
This was GREAT! Im buying all of them in order (i have the first 3 expansions and everything between) but i love your take.
Thank you very much! That’s certainly a perfectly fine way to go as it’s what we all did lol. I actually meant I talk a little about that and I just sorta forgot lol
Really enjoyed this video. After buying the packs do you then separate the cards into hero, aspect and basic card stacks for storage?
Thanks for watching!
Yes I have one box with all the hero kits separated, though I do keep a set of the double energy cards with each hero as it’s rare I don’t include them in a deck. And then I have another box with the cards separated by aspect/basic, and then further broken down by resource/event/support/upgrade/ally. I buy the Tesseract Games vertical dividers and they’re fantastic!
Had this game for long time and finally sat down and learned how to play it. This game is fun. I bought the venom hero pack and he is great to play. Only played Spiderman and venom against rhino so far. Playing iron man next time. Love this game.
That’s so awesome!! I’m glad to hear you’re enjoying it! And yeah, Venom is so awesome 🤩
@@GetUpandGameit's a fast game too. So many ways to vary its outcome. Really love it.
@@darrenengstrom3323 ❤️❤️❤️
I bought everything! I'm going to play everything good or bad builds im going to try it.
Haha nice!! Yeah you gotta try everything right? 😆
Awesome vid! I’m pretty frugal with my gaming budget but I still have invested in RoRS, MTS, Captain America, Venom and Quicksilver.
The majority of my games are true solo and I’ve been enjoying justice a lot lately. Do you have any recommendations for cards geared toward true solo? Ms Marvel with Endurance seems like a great buy as does Black Widow with Coulson and Counterintelligence.
Thanks!
Yes I would definitely recommend the two you mention, Ms. Marvel with Endurance as well as Concussive Blow. Confuse is a solo players best friend. And Widow with Coulson and Counterintelligence is also very nice.
Another great Justice card that works best in solo is One Way or Another, and that can be found in Nebula or Spider-Ham. I think Nebula’s pack is a little better, but Spider-Ham is more well-rounded for solo play. But they’re both great hero’s so whoever looks more interesting to you would work great!
After that the biggest Justice card you would still be missing is Turn the Tide from Scarlet Witch. That 3 damage might not sound like a lot, but for zero cost it’s incredibly efficient, and it’s incredible with Ms Marvel because of Embiggen and her hero response.
Thanks for watching and I hope that’s helpful!
@@GetUpandGame Thanks so much for the detailed reply. Absolutely helpful info and I'll be checking out your state of the game videos for more insight on Spider-Ham vs Nebula. Might be a while before I get all the heroes you mentioned, but in the meantime I'll be enjoying the new content vicariously through your vids - new subscriber unlocked! Thanks again!
I decided before starting to get the Core Box and only the Guardians related hero’s and expansions.
Course I’m working my way through everything else now too. 😂
Hahahaha yeah that’s usually how it goes with these games!
I’m just getting into learning the game. What aspect and cards do you recommend for building a good deck for Peter Parker Spider-Man?
Welcome to the game! Peter probably plays best in Protection because of his high defense and hero ability. There are a lot of good cards these days that reward you for defending without taking damage. So you’ll definitely want to be using the Armored Vest from the Core set. Indomitable is important too, because Peter really relies on his basic ATK to help deal with minions so he wants to be ready after he defends.
The Doctor Strange pack comes with a lot of good cards for Spider-Man including Unflappable for drawing a card if he doesn’t take damage when defending, Desperate Defense which boosts his defense and readies him if he doesn’t take damage, and Momentum Shift for dealing damage and healing. That’s probably the single best pack for getting a lot of good cards for Spidey.
He also really like Ingenuity from the Ironheart pack but unfortunately that’s pretty much the only card in that pack that helps him.
Ms Marvel and Groot have good cards for him as well, depending on how far you’re wanting to go to boost him up. But at the very least Doctor Strange will help him out quite a bit!
Thank you for helping out with "What to buy". This is my first LCG and have just ordered the main box to start out. A quick question, can you also mix and build decks for the opponents? To make the encounters change and difficulty? (Yes I am a really beginner in this type of game) :D
Welcome to the game! 🤩
Yes you are able to customize the encounter decks in a few different ways, which is one of the best parts of this amazing game! In almost every scenario when you look at the setup instructions, one of the encounter sets will be in (parentheses). That one is optional and can be switched out for any other modular set you own. So that’s awesome.
And you can also choose to play the villain on either Standard where you face the stage 1 and then stage 2 versions of the villain. Or you can play in Expert where you face the Stage 2 and Stage 3 versions of the villain, as well as shuffle in the Expert Encounter set. There is also Skirmish and Heroic modes but Standard and Expert are really the main ways to play.
So you have a ton of control over what you would like to play against! And in the next video in this series that I’m going to be coming out with soon I’m going to be talking all about the modular encounter sets and the best ways to customize the villain! So you’re in the right place lol
I’m excited for you to be playing Champions and I’m more than happy to answer any other questions you may have! 😊

@@GetUpandGame thanks for the great answer, and for the welcome 😉 I have for long looked at this game and thought now it should have a go. But have been a bit curious on how a co-op and solo game works as a card game. So that will be a new thing for me. Have only played card games against other ppl before, like poker, Gwent, a small amount of magic a long time ago.
But I am very excused for this. As I said I ordered the main game but also red skull to have something extra throughout Christmas etc. hope I will love it ☺️
Also looking forward to learn the thought process of deck building in these scenarios
@@al-sheikhali1284 you are in for such a treat! As someone who has played all the co-op card games I can tell you it works super well and is incredibly fun! I hope you’ll comment in my videos occasionally, I’d love to hear how it’s going for you as you get into it! 😊
@@GetUpandGame you will hear from me as soon as I have giving it a go. I’m sure I will have questions along the way 😝 and will look into your content for help as well of course
I am skipping the Guardian and X-Men packs and just focusing on Avengers, Web Warriors and Champions. Is there anything that I should buy within the Guardians that I would miss for these heroes? Not sure if this was a mistake but I also skipped Black Widow as I didn't like the preparation card play enough from what I have seen on play throughs. As far as packs left to buy; I am leaning towards Venom (for Justice cards) along with Spider-Ham and Vision. I'd like a playable Hulk and Thor and think I have a good base to do that.
I think that sounds like a fine way to go! And yeah skipping Widow is fine. Coulson and Spycraft make their way into decks here and there but aren’t crucial.
Venom is a great buy for sure. Looking through the Guardians I would say the main things you might miss are Dive Bomb from Star-Lord to go with Honed Technique in Nova, and Clobber from Gamora is just a really solid aggression card. I would’ve said Nebula is a must have for One Way or Another but they also put that in Spider-Ham so if you’re getting him you’ll be good there!
One Way or Another from Nebula is so good.
If you dont buy Spider Ham, buy her.
Venom nets you the sonic rifle and I personally find that to be great in Iron Man so if you like playing him then sonic rifle helps him out in yellow, which is my personal preference for him, as it allows him to make up for staying in AE for a little while.
Question-I really like doctor strange and he’s one of my favorite hero’s to play as but I hate using protection with him so do you have any recommendations on what aspect to use instead and we’re to get good cards for it thanks
Yes! I quite like the good Doctor myself so I can point you in a few different directions :).
First some general recommendations. 2 key heroes to get for him are Scarlet Witch and Adam Warlock from the Mad Titan's Shadow. Wanda comes with Spiritual Meditation (0 cost Basic event that lets you draw 2 cards and discard 1. SO GOOD) and Adam has a new Mystic Spell for each aspect. So those are very nice to have.
The Cosmo Basic ally from either Star-Lord or Nebula is also very helpful as he can cycle through the invocation deck to get to the spells you want more quickly. Another very good Basic card for him is Earth's Mightiest Heroes from the Hawkeye deck in the Rise of the Red Skull. That can get him extra ready's to cast even more spells per turn.
Stephen works very well in all the aspects due to his invocation deck being so versatile and so strong.
In Leadership a really good build for him centers around getting cheap allies on the board and using Strength in Numbers (Captain America) to draw cards, as well as his own spell that puts Tough on 3 different characters. Ant-man comes with 2 very good allies for that deck, Stinger and Hank Pym Ant-man. Maria Hill from the Core and Squirrel Girl from Captain America are great cheap allies as well. Ironheart from Wasp is probably the best cheap ally in the game, and Blade from Spectrum (Mad Titan's Shadow) is also fantastic. But the key packs for that build are Captain America and Ant-man.
In Justice he can take advantage of Concussive Blow from Ms. Marvel or Sonic Rifle from Venom along with his own Confuse spell to get to alter ego frequently to take advantage of the larger hand size and Sanctum Sanctorum. Also with One Way or Another from either Nebula or Spider-ham he can draw enough cards to help him get to those Master of the Mystic Arts faster. Clear the Area from Spider-woman (Rise of the Red Skull) provides excellent threat removal and card draw as well, and is cheap, leaving room to still play a spell.
Aggression suits him well because his biggest weakness is minion control. He lacks medium damage events, so you can supplement him with Relentless Assault from the Core set, as well as Clobber from Gamora. With his fantastic villain control (stun/confuse) you can really lean into the damage and go all out. He has access to aerial so the combo of Dive Bomb (Star-Lord) and Honed Technique (Nova) is available to him as well.
For all of his decks I recommend a healthy supply of cheap allies to serve as blockers as well as good targets for the Tough spell.
I hope that's helpful!
Great video. I just bought the base set and Dr. Strange, what do you recommend for a Dr. Strange aggression deck?
Awesome! Welcome to the game!
Doctor Strange in aggression is all about minion control and keeping the threat under control just well enough to blow the villain up with his Crimson Bands and Magic Blasts. You really want to be using those big damage effects on the villain, so you’ll want things like Relentless Assault to deal with the minions. Chase Them Down makes for nice threat control if you find you need more in addition to his Images of Ikonn and Astral Projection.
As for cards to add to your collection, the biggest one for Doctor Strange is Spiritual Meditation from Scarlet Witch. Cosmo from
Star Lord or Nebula is also key to help him cycle his Invocation deck faster to find the one you want. You can also find more Mystic cards in Adam Warlock in the Mad Titan’s Shadow box. They’re good but I don’t know that he’s worth getting just to boost Doctor Strange.
And for just general aggression cards that work well for him, Wasp has Into the Fray which is good minion control and threat removal all in one. Plus she has Ironheart, and Strange likes cheap allies to defend for him when he hasn’t stunned the villain.
That’s what I would look to for making a good aggression Doctor Strange deck!
@GetUpandGame thank you so much! I really appreciate your help. Looking forward to seeing more of your content.
@@chrismartin3137 any time! Happy to help! 😀
Great video. I'm getting into this game because of the X-men so what course do I take? I have core and wolverine. Do I follow your video from here and go with your recommendations or do I just get mutant genesis and the X-men? Or do I do some combination of the two?
Hello! Welcome to the game and to the channel! Ha yeah I kinda knew this video would get a little obsolete the second X-men came out 😅
If you’re in for the X-men then I would say feel free to get all of that stuff. They’ve done a good job of providing a ton of support for X-men decks already, as well as reprinting some of the important cards from the earlier cycles. So you should be able to get everything you need for a great start into the game with just the X stuff.
Now I will say the scenarios in the Mutant Genesis box aren’t necessarily the easiest, but most of them aren’t too bad. If you find Sabretooth to be a little too challenging (he’s the first one) feel free to skip him cause the next 2 are a little easier
And then after all that I still think my recommendation of getting the second wave heroes is solid because of how many good all-purpose cards they come with. And Rise of Red Skull might seem a little basic compared to Mutant Genesis, but I still think it would be worthwhile as well
So hopefully that helps you out and please ask any other questions that come up! 🙂
@@GetUpandGame Thanks for the reply. I'll grab the x stuff and then follow your video!
@@riverwulf6721 happy to help anytime! 😊
Really great video. But ou didn't explain right away that the Core Set is andatory. I think you should explain espacially for beginer that before buying any set they should buy the core set.
Oh jeez you’re right! I kinda took it for granted since that’s how all these games work but I absolutely should’ve made that explicitly clear at the beginning. Good call!
My plan is to pretty much to focus on the mutants until the end of wave 6 then go back to the Avengers. I have heard some rumblings that Mutant Genesis isn't new player friendly but I guess I won;t know until I try.
Sabretooth is pretty tough for the first scenario out of the gate. Overall the box plays really well though! Magneto isn’t nearly as crazy hard as some of the other final villains.
The heroes are surprisingly complex with a bunch of rules questions, particularly Kitty. She’s a ton of fun to play but very puzzly!
I’m my opinion, it’s not as new player friendly as we sort of assumed it would be, but it’s not too bad. The answers are out there for the questions so that’s good!
@@GetUpandGame I see, it has been playing on my mind I won't lie. Do you think it would it be better to go RORS as a first expansion even beating out the "want" factor? I guess I wouldn't complain if this was a second expansion instead.
@@gameguy1337 I do always recommend RoRS first for sure. It’s very new player friendly and gives a ton of value. Plus there’s always Cyclops and Phoenix if you wanted to add some X-men flavor, and Storm and Wolverine are right around the corner!
@@GetUpandGame Thank you for the advice :)
@@gameguy1337 anytime! Happy to help!
As of right now, I'm willing to spend around $150 on this game. I'm thinking I'll go with a core set, Sinister Motives, Mutant Genisis, and Wolverine.
That’s not a bad plan at all! The 2 best campaign expansions and one of the strongest heroes 👍👍
Which sleeves are you using?
I’m not very fancy when it comes to sleeves lol so I just use KMC Perfect Fit clear sleeves. They’re a step above the cheapest ones and serve my purposes just fine but they’re nothing special. Most people who really like to deck out their cards seems to like the Dragon Shields so if you want something nicer I’d look into them!
Have you considered a pined comment or a short follow up video mentioning the newest big box expansion?
That is a really good idea, I definitely should do that. I’ll put a new comment there right now. Thank you very much for the suggestion!
I admit I buy more for theme and less for what cards come with that theme, and build base on what I get, so I kinda have a decent spiderverse and avengers set, and not sure where to go. I want to get some xmen to support them, just not sure what to focus on.
i think his advice is solid.
One thing I noticed with Xmen is their cards are very wide spread, so I initially only bought a few Xmen, but now planning to buy almost all of it (with very few exceptions)
Oh shoot, sorry buddy, I didn’t mean to ignore this comment! I’m sure it’s been too long for me to offer any helpful advice so now I’m just curious what you decided to do?
@@GetUpandGame i wonder what he did haha. Just buy all xmen 🤣
@@jfducusin7186 actually rl got in the way so I had to sidestep for a bit. But my game club did get interested in this, and I think I may start with cyclops and wolverine, then get gambit, and then buy the first xmen campaign box. I also need to get Kang yet.
Incidentially... .we need a Hells Kitchen set. With Bullseye, the Punisher, Electra, Cloak and Dagger, and Ghost Rider, with Kingpin and his syndicate as enemies.
@@Teachermook totally agree with jf lol, the X-men are very setup where the more the merrier! I would recommend getting Mutant Genesis first if you can and you know you’re going to be getting it eventually, it comes with a lot of key X-men supports and allies
Hi, sorry for the long comment but I really don’t know what to buy and feel like all over the place I got the game a few months ago and bought it with the green goblin, ms marvel, and vision because wanted to have more protection cards, now I want to focus on aggression and justice but I also want some new villains, and Idk what to get, I was thinking maybe Trotrs but I feel like the expansion supports mainly leadership since spiderwoman only comes with like 2 new cards of justice and aggression, I don’t want Sotmt yet and I’ve been thinking about both Gmw and Sm and I feel like the heroes and cards I want more are from the Gmw exapnsion but I’m not ready for the campaing and of Sm although I love the villains I don’t really like ghost spider so I don’t know what to do, any recomendations ? I want to buy something by next month for my birthday and I have a budget of 45/50$ so I was also considering waiting for mutant genesis but I don’t know what to expect from the villains or the campaing
Hmmm yeah I see what you’re saying. Everything is sort of out of position for what you’re looking for. Red Skull has good villains but the hero cards don’t help you. GMW has great aggression cards but the campaign is scary, and Sinister Motives has a hero you’re not interested in. I have a couple of suggestions that I hope will be helpful!
I know you say you don’t like Ghost Spider, but I think my main recommendation would still be for Sinister Motives. The villains are fantastic, and the Justice and Basic cards that come with Miles are so good. The Shield stuff is a lot of fun. And Miles is amazing. Plus it sounds like you must have been into protection before and she comes with some good green cards. I think the villains and Miles still make the box worth it!
My other thought would be to go with Scarlet Witch or Venom for some good Justice cards, and Nova or Wasp for good Aggression cards, and then either the Kang pack or the Hood pack. I think if you bought 2 heroes and a scenario that would be right around 50 depending on where you get them. This way you get exactly what you’re looking for, more red and yellow cards, and a new scenario to play. Plus both of those packs come with a lot of fun modulars to spice up the villains you currently have.
Those are my thoughts anyways! I hope that helps, and I’m happy to keep chatting about it if that would help you narrow things down ! 😃
@@GetUpandGame I actually was already considering that option with wasp, the hood, and either scarlet witch or venom but I really don't know if for the money SM is better, but if I were to get venom or scarlet witch, which would you recommend, because I want to add more like flavour to the justice aspect because I feel like right now it only handles threat and nothing else, so I like the confuse cards from venom because it adds like the mission of having the villain stun-locked and then get rewarded with cheap cost high damage, but I also like scarlet witch for the cards that helps you have threat on the schemes to then use cards that reward you for taking away that threat kind of like playing with the villain scheme and using to your advantage, so I feel like I would really enjoy both, and at some point I'll get both but which one do you recommend getting first ?
lol on the stun-locked I meant confuse-lock, sorry
@@moisescortes4899 based on what you say I would say go with Venom. You’re right that it’s nice for Justice to have something more interesting to do with the Confuse and damage strategy. It’s a lot of fun! Plus Wasp would really appreciate that Sonic Rifle, and Making An Entrance is a very good card for her as well.
I love Scarlet Witch but her cards are mostly just more threat removal options. And her off aspect cards aren’t nearly as good as Venom’s
@@GetUpandGame thank you so much for helping it honestly did helped me decide, while I will probably buy SM as my first campaing I feel like what I really want as of now is more variety to the aspects and villains other than anything else, so these 2 heroes are perfect for that, plus the hood will help to spice the other villains I already have with all those modular sets and the standar and expert ii, again thanks so much for the help
I just want to make Iron Man all he can be. Any particular packs just for him?
Venom is a great pack for him with Crew Quarters and Plasma Pistol, as well as Sonic Rifle for Justice.
In aggression the main thing you would want is Hand Cannon from Galaxy’s Most Wanted.
Protection is probably his best aspect with all the tech, and you can find Energy Barrier and Forcefield Generator in Sp//dr. You can also find Energy Barrier in Ms Marvel. Hulk has Electrostatic Armor for another cheap tech, but that’s more of a nice-to-have.
Leadership is fun because any tech upgrades on allies Tony controls count toward your hand size. Ant-Man has Power Gloves and Reinforced Suit, as well as good Avengers allies to put them on
A good general card to have for him is Meditation from Vision. He also really likes Ingenuity from Ironheart, which kind of replaces Quincarrier. Though you could always run both, and you can find Quincarriers in Black Widow, Wasp, or War Machine. War Machine also has the team up card Two Against the World.
I think those are pretty much all the Iron Man staple cards!
@@GetUpandGame Thanks for the detailed response!
@@sebastianstark8517 no problem! 😀
What would you recommend to someone who got into this game and pretty much only bought rise of red skull and two X-Men characters. Is the X-Men expansion good besides buffing X-Men?
Hello! I do think the X-men box is really good. Both heroes are great (kitty is actually one of my top heroes now) and the villains are really cool. A couple of em are pretty tough so be aware of that. And yeah it definitely buffs them up pretty well with some key allies and other X specific cards. But it’s not necessary I wouldn’t say. The more X-men stuff you have the better the X-men get for sure though. They got a ton of support in this first wave
I think the best overall product in the game is Sinister Motives so that’s always a great buy! And of course just grabbing any heroes that look fun to you is a very valid strategy
Are you wanting to build decks, play more heroes, or get more villains? I’m happy to narrow down some recommendations if I know what you’re looking to do 🙂
@@GetUpandGame Pretty much got my favourite hero's, wolverine and phoenix and I bought wasp,black widow and Gamora just because my local store had them. At this rate I feel I need to improve my decks rather then face new villians so want more ways to improve wolverine and phoenix
@@metascrub285 oh a very cool mix of cards! Give me a little bit to ponder and I’ll get back to you! 😃
@@metascrub285 ok the way I see it you’ve already got a really good pool of Justice and aggression, which both Jean and Logan play well in. So if you want to lean into those, I highly recommend Spider-ham for One Way or Another and other good Justice + Team Building Exercise is huge for Jean
I don’t think you’re missing anything too crucial for aggression
You could already do ok with Leadership thanks to Rapid Response from Black Widow. But if you wanted more blue I’d get Storm for really good blue X-men leadership cards and Utopia, plus Endurance for Wolverine and an X-Jet
If you want to go into protection you’d have to get quite a bit but if you wanted that Gwen in Sinister Motives has good cards for Wolverine, as well as Doctor Strange for a nice start to some green decks.
That’s what I’ve got so far! 😆
@@GetUpandGame Is it me by the way being a new player with a limited card pool but justice feels like it doesn't really do any damage?
great info... I still wont buy Sp/Dp ever... or spiderham... don't care what cards come in that pack...
Eh, you already have most of the cards that came in Spider-ham since he came with a ton of reprints. Sp//dr was a good pack for Hulk, Drax, Thor, and She-Hulk as it came with 2 really good cards for heroes with 14hp, but other than that nothing you can’t live without!
@@GetUpandGameyep.. thanks to your video I saw that... so I printed out those two cards... because I will be playing hulk... and lord knows we need every card that helps him... thanks for the help and info as alwasy... super helpful...
I want a powerful deck for scarlet witch any suggestions 👀؟
Yes! I love Scarlet Witch. She’s amazing in Justice since her kit already has so much damage potential. If you fill it with cards that help you draw cards like Clear the Area, Skilled Investigator, and One Way or Another that will get you to your hex bolts over and over again which will help you draw even more cards as well as manage the board. Turn the tide or Followed for more damage. A few expensive cards to take advantage of Chaos Magic like Nick Fury, Avengers Mansion, Daredevil and Quincarrier. Wiccan, Ironheart, Eros and Quake for cheap blockers. Some combination of all those cards should make for a really strong Wanda deck!
@@GetUpandGame thanks 👍
@@marvelhero894 no problem!
What storage would you recommend for someone who needs to travel with their cards to build decks with different groups (keeping in mind I'll have all of the cards by the end of the year)?
If you’re planning on taking all of your cards with you (which is something I do occasionally as well) I like using the white rectangular bcw boxes. I currently have 3 that hold everything. One for heroes and their kits, one for aspect cards, and one for the villains. The tokens and such just sort of fit where they can. if you know which heroes and scenarios you’ll be playing you could easily fit those in the same box you have your aspect cards in for traveling. So that’s what I do!
@@GetUpandGame Oh man that sounds difficult and inconvenient. I was thinking you'd use like a briefcase or something
@@alexandersims1613 haha yeah, I’m pretty no frills when it comes to that kind of stuff. Apologies for not having a better recommendation!
I will say however that I know there are people in the Living Card Games discord I hang out in that would have much better recommendations about this stuff. Plus it’s just a great place to talk about the game so if you’re interested feel free to hop in! discord.gg/8ZfKXFKw
I had to stop the video halfway through just to comment and say thank you for properly pronouncing SP//dr!! It drove me unreasonably crazy hearing like every single content creator pronounce it Spider. 😂
Haha well welcome back good sir, I believe it was you who corrected my pronunciation in my SP//dr preview, and I have been saying that way every since! 😁👍
@@GetUpandGame lol. I totally forgot about that. Happy to be of service ✌🏾. Great video by the way. I actually haven't picked up the two WW packs yet, glad to hear SP is fun, I was looking forward to her the most out of this cycle.
@@jaycolins2430 thanks! Yep she definitely didn’t disappoint. So many choices to make every turn, and as long as she gets a turn or two to setup she’s incredibly strong. And Spider-Ham is great fun as well!
I bought Ironheart. Took her aspect cards and threw her and her own cards in the trash.
Don't want that woke garbage in my collection.
