Hooray for Nimrod! I am still mulling over the potential effectiveness of Zemo's Hydra leadership being used to grab Versatile Strategy. Is Zemo's cost reduction on tactic cards worth the trade-off of delaying Baron Strucker's heals? It almost feels like I'd be losing out on a tactics card and under-utilizing the other half of Zemo's leadership. That being said, I am not anywhere near a master-level player, so I'm probably missing somthing.
Cosmic Carol is gonna shred in my Guardians list! Super interesting to see more of the Green Goblin "blow up terrain" move, now that the core set has a lot more terrain
I am super excited for all of these characters. I am curious where they will fall affiliation wise. I think putting red skull with high power models like lockjaw or even something like sentinels. I agree it will need some play time to unlock him more I think most people will ignore the ultron drones since they can't interact objectives and don't hit that hard
That’s a good point, I haven’t considered him with Lockjaw. Lockjaw can just teleport characters himself and can feel like a “tax.” Sentinels would be interesting. Prime could hand out rerolls and give red skull tons of power. Worth testing!
Fwiw I don’t think the OG core set is a bad investment. Some models will definitely still be played, the terrain is great, and all the tools are still functional
Correct! But you don’t have to transform back to normal form once you’re at or below 3 power. So you could gamble and not transform back and be stuck with a suboptimal turn if your opponent doesn’t attack you. Just a couple tricky things to keep in mind. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Stoked for this and everything X-Men
It really speaks to how cool this core set is that I forgot about the X-Men updates for a little while!
There are super powers that push you. Venom, Omega Red, and the Sentinels all have ranged push powers.
You’re totally right! I don’t know how I forgot that. Thanks for watching!
Almost got tabled by avengers using X-Men. 3eve is with a scary leadership
Hooray for Nimrod!

A full terrain explosion team would be awesome and funny to play!

Wow, I just bought the OG core set and now I'm probably going to get this new core set... pain

@johnparker3264 Oh definitely, but most of the new cards look great, and as someone who loves Ultron I'm excited for a much better Ultron
@@loselot6044oh for sure. Finally Ultron will have the cape I could never make from green stuff!
There's not a way to get Binary Form Marvel to 0 power without having her spend or lose power, so there's no way to get stuck in that form.
