Lockjaw is fun again! As I said in the video, I REALLY liked the first deck I spoke about, Lockjaw Ray Bill. However, I think Gwenpool needs to be switched out for a better performing card. I suggest either Odin or Grandmaster, but I am sure you all will come up with other alternate ideas. Gwenpool was fine, but I think that she is ultimately the weak link.
I had Twitch playing for 6 hours as it was changing to different Snap creators and I remember coming home and see you were on the screen and the first thing I heard was “Lockjaw is a good boy” or something like that and then I just pull up YT and see this video lol in my subscriptions
I wasn't planning on opening spotlights just for Beta Ray, but I might have to. So much up and down in the 90s rank that I'm willing to try a Lockjaw deck.
Regarding the 2400g for a spotlight variant: People keep saying it's "fair" online because it's a really rare item and costs a key. But they're all ignoring the fact when you don't get a variant on a random 1/4 first pull and instead get a card you already HAVE, they only give you 1000 tokens for your key. Stop simping for SD greed people.
I would argue that 2400g is fair for something that originally was supposed to never be available again, but it is ALSO true that getting only 1000 tokens when spending a key for a card you already have is complete BS. I could MAYBE even accept it if they made it 1000 tokens for a series 4 and something more for a series 5. MAYBE.
Lockjaw may not be back entirely but Sauron might be lol. Idk if it was just luck but I went up damn near 70 cubes using a traditional Sauron/shuri list last night. Only newer card I was using was red hulk. I’m not sure if people just didn’t respect the deck or maybe some of the people haven’t been around long enough to see how strong it can be but I was just inhaling cubes left and right. Got 5 8 cubers lol
I love lockjaw. I get that people draw comparisons to hela because there is some randomness to him. But here’s the rub; with lockjaw you have to track your deck and play to your outs on what’s left in the deck. And sure, you can do similarish things with hela by say stacking lane closed to dictate the pattern of the resurrects but hela is sooooo much more random crapbag crapshoot. At least with lockjaw too it’s face up when I’m playing Thor and beta. You can priority dodge and tech with SK or Shang if I get a good roll. You can also track my hand size / track my draws with Jane. TLDR: lockjaw has casino elements but is much less of a random “I win no skill” type card than hela. I love good doggo, I hate hela.
Definetly gonna try that first one that original darkhawk ray bill was my favourite deck of all time I also saw that they are 2400gold but I don’t really mind that much considering those variants were technically worth a whole spotlight key, I’m more upset at the fomo black borders
I'm trying so hard to make a Pixie/LockJaw/Asgardian deck and it's not yet perfect, but it's working well for me! Magneto wrecks me though. I need a good way to get around him.
Man all this Lockjaw talk has me wanting to use keys to get Bill. But I feel he's going to be a likely candidate for the next series drop (whenever that happens). Want to save my keys for other things

:D
@@AlexanderCocciastill by far my favorite Snap creator and I also finally got that wolverine snap variant from the twitch drops so thank you
In Thanos I’ve hated him, he’s just not good at 4 cost, but with the Asgardian’s he is really putting in work
Fr. The stones just dont make for good fodder for him.
What about using a Lockjaw + Black Swan combo as old times?
@@lory6988 doesn't work as well since you can't ramp energy with the Time Stone
Never had the chance to properly play Thor and Jane, now I can
Been playing a JaneJaw list all day and it's been a such a blast.
Ive never had all the cards till this week and it's been amazing people have no idea how to play into this deck

thx Alex this was actually a 0/3 week for me so it was great to finally play a more optimal jane and incorporate all my key usage in one deck too!

i loved the old Janejaw casino decks, looking forward to playing again!

Viper + eletro + jeff is still amazing in my eyes, eletro blink and eletro sersi also works too but i love the viper combo the best
hit an infinite with Lockjaw Ray Bill deck, but Odin instead of GP, thank you, bro!

The choreography in this game is wild.
Hi twitch! I love the asgardian package so I’m really happy about the lockjaw change. Thanks for another great video Alex!
My pleasure!
I got BRB this week to play Asgard package, now I can do it properly.
Also - Hello Twitch and my past self, second time this week 😆
Not much to say, other than: this was a great video as always, thanks Alex!
White Widow replacement/s?
I tried with Thena. Not bad at all. Also you can try Zabu
Green goblin is good aswell
I've played That Batman Player a few times. That's a good player.
Hope you hit 100k sub soon!
13:24 that reaction is too good lmfaoooooooooo
that play of their was one of the worst i've ever seen
I don’t have Beta Ray Bill. Would it still be worth playing the deck if I just put in Odin in his place?
18:25 "Possibly bring Doom back" xD
The rng after the ota went live just wrecked me at every turn. Hopefully it turns around.
Is the first deck viable without Psyloke and rock slide?
Can you suggest replacements for bill?
old school hela deck coming back
Alexxxxx! Thank you for the video 🤙🏽
My pleasure!!
Beta ray bill replacements?
I’m really about to throw by burning all my keys on the new bill variant right before copycat comes out 💀
White widow replacements ?
I want to make either thanos or arsheim lockjaw thors package work.
Man all this Lockjaw talk has me wanting to use keys to get Bill. But I feel he's going to be a likely candidate for the next series drop (whenever that happens). Want to save my keys for other things
He is back!
coping hard with the gwenpool, it's so sad I was so exited for her to come out and tbh she is underwhelming.
I think she is good into Arishem and Patriot. She's a good surfer card too
Exactly what I thought, she is doing nothing in those shells.
Always my reminder to go to bed 😭😂
Alex's new rap album. Hoping and coping
Alex is a good boy ❤
Good job bro
Cosmo is a bad dog, a bad dog - Kraglin
Edited: to fix phones auto correct and change quote to the proper person
Good effort, but it's "Cosmo", not "cosme", and Yondu (or yandu) was long dead at that point - you want Kraglin for what you're quoting.
Lockjaw is a good boy!
2400 gold is low for a spotlight variant. Its literally a key. How can anyone possibly complain?
Yes, he is. Yes, he is.
Never tried a Lockjaw Hela deck?
Not at all happy to see lockjaw back
Lockjaw on turn 4 is just too slow, arishems got practically a full board by that time, just feels bad to play
if lockjaw will be in the meta again, it's probably good time to take a break from the game...
Hi Twitch
I like Alex but him repeating "...gameplay" and "we always win/lose" is so annoying.
Not that good imo :(
