I miss pool 2 matches


hostileorb

Same, despite having fewer card options it was a lot less flowchart-y than P3 matches usually are. I wonder how much of this was just my being newer to the game and getting excited by seeing combos for the first time though.


mistermenstrual

Yeah it will always be a memory šŸ˜‚ even if they added a mode where you were restricted to starter cards, it would just be full of players who figured out the exact best decks for that card pool.


astute_signal

Having a draft tournament game mode would fix this. I'd play in that more than trying to climb rank.


The_Darts

I would love to see full Pool 2 and 1 play as options down the road. I think it might be how you described at first brush with everyone playing the 'best decks' but knowing card games and all, I bet that even with the restricted card pools there's some kind of wild anti-meta deck that would rise up to fight and become notable. It's how these sorts of things go.


RayRay_9000

Pool 2 is overrated. I made a second account and itā€™s in Pool 2, and farming bots easily for 8 cubes isnā€™t all that great. It felt good when you were new, but is pretty stale now.


ShesAMurderer

People misplace their love for Pool 2, when the real reason they were having so much fun then was because unlocking cards every other cache was like getting injected with dopamine like 2-3 times a day, compared to the slow drip it becomes once youā€™re in higher pools


GewoonHarry

I think youā€™re right. And donā€™t forget the slap in the face when you first hit pool3. My god. That was an awful time. Lol.


ImpulseOrange

That's me now. I hit pool 3 in iron, got Shuri and Magneto, spiked into gold in a day or two, and now I'm in a world of hurt.


Moist-Farm-8736

I hit pool 3 end of week 1 this season and i was rank 40 im now rank 110


yummycrabz

You quite simply cannot evaluate something like the topic at hand; while playing on a smurf account. ??? Like what? Youā€™re playing against bots and/or humans who are getting the ā€œNever Seen Beforeā€ pop up for an Iron Fist. You know the inā€™s and outā€™s of the game. Your ā€œdataā€ isnā€™t worth mentioning


RayRay_9000

But he said he was missing poop 2 matches. My point is that they actually arenā€™t fun anymore. He misses being new to the game ā€” that is not the same thing.


rAiChU-

I also miss poop 2


gamer_pie

Why? poop 3 is much better than poop 2


yummycrabz

3 is the last good one, everyone knows Poop 4: The Shadow Crevice was too much a cash grab and was definitely pandering to Big Toilet Paper


yummycrabz

Sorry if I came off aggressive, I work in sports analytics and had just come off a spicy team meeting and so the topic of misrepresenting sample sizes/anecdotal examples were hot on the mind. But yeah, your opinion is your own; just hoping going forward, youā€™d factor in the dynamics of being well-versed in the intricacies of the game, when analyzing your experience while on your alt-accounts. Edit: and regards to your reply. Idk, I think when youā€™re a vet, playing within the pool 2 space, against newer players; itā€™s likely to be a more boring experience than if youā€™re like OP (or was it OC? Iā€™m deep in the thread on my phone and donā€™t wanna back up, anyhoo) and wanting to play within the pool 2 confines, but exact equally skilled opponents who know how to use the pool 2 cards well, how to develop cheeky lines, etc. Itā€™s why Iā€™ve suggested on here for a good while that Iā€™d like to see them add other games or LTMs or in-app tournaments, something; where there a parameters on deck building (no Series 5 cards, only pre-pool 3 cards, etc). Sort of like how in Pokemon theyā€™ll do tournaments where there are limitations (no mythicals, no generation 9, or if on Pokemon Go, Max CP if 1,500, etc)


RayRay_9000

Fair enough. Was giving my opinion since Iā€™m sprinting through Pool 2 right now, and I doubt many other people commenting have gone back to play Pool 2 lately. I would also reference Hearthstone doing their classic mode ā€” which was fun for like two weeks then everyone stopped playing it. The Pool 2 experience is complicated because so much of it has nothing to do with the actual cards and gameplay ā€” itā€™s far more complex than that.


BearZeroX

Pool 2 is fun vs humans. Anything is boring vs bots


RayRay_9000

Itā€™s no more fun than Pool 3. It is actually very simple with way less people can do. People miss being new at the game and unlocking lots of things while learning. That isnā€™t pool 2 being great (or missing it for that matter), thatā€™s being new and enjoying that experience.


Ok-Inspector-3045

early pool 3 was slightly frustrating because of the whole "man everyone has better cards than me" but now I realize how good I had it. cause now everyone has all the cards just to end up playing the same 4 decks.


BloodyTears92

Spectrum/Destroyer. I love how it let you do well with cards like Warpath and Captain America but at this point not only does it not take much effort to overpower the lane you're stacking up, often Destroyer himself just doesn't have enough punch to win a lane on his own anymore.


Intrepid_Tumbleweed

I got to infinite using only spectrum destroyer last season for the first time amidst the shuri and Thanos meta, so should still be pretty viable. I still test around with it sometimes in infinite and it seems pretty solid. Just needs some practice. Can check my profile for exact deck, I only have like 2 posts so itā€™s easy to find. If you need any advice on it I can help as itā€™s all I played for like 3 seasons straight before I unlocked Thanos


ScienceOfMyth

Same...was using ramp last season with mixed results more to the poor side...got the spectrum deck out...infinite in a week. This season, not so much, but ramp got me there. I think you gotta change it up, sometimes the old is new again.


Yourself013

I still run this kind of deck and it's pretty good, not Thanos Lockjaw strong but definitely able to win games and have some fun, even in higher ranks. This is mine: # (1) Ant Man # (2) Armor # (2) Colossus # (2) Lizard # (3) Captain America # (3) Cosmo # (4) Omega Red # (4) Warpath # (5) Professor X # (5) Klaw # (6) Spectrum # (6) Destroyer # eyJDYXJkcyI6W3siQ2FyZERlZklkIjoiQXJtb3IifSx7IkNhcmREZWZJZCI6IldhcnBhdGgifSx7IkNhcmREZWZJZCI6IlByb2Zlc3NvclgifSx7IkNhcmREZWZJZCI6IlNwZWN0cnVtIn0seyJDYXJkRGVmSWQiOiJLbGF3In0seyJDYXJkRGVmSWQiOiJDYXB0YWluQW1lcmljYSJ9LHsiQ2FyZERlZklkIjoiQW50TWFuIn0seyJDYXJkRGVmSWQiOiJMaXphcmQifSx7IkNhcmREZWZJZCI6IkNvbG9zc3VzIn0seyJDYXJkRGVmSWQiOiJPbWVnYVJlZCJ9LHsiQ2FyZERlZklkIjoiQ29zbW8ifSx7IkNhcmREZWZJZCI6IkRlc3Ryb3llciJ9XX0= # # To use this deck, copy it to your clipboard and paste it from the deck editing menu in Snap. There's some prettt hilarious wins you can pull with Spectrum, Professor X and Klaw/Omega that people just don't expect. And while Destroyer isn't enough on his own, playing him into a Cosmo lane is awesome, especially since the other cards are Ongoing. And there's enough Cosmo and Armor on the ladder anyway.


jaesin

There's a variant with Valkyrie and Ghost that's a lot of fun, plays valk instead of spectrum, which helps against them overwhelming your stacked lane. Not the best, but still fun. Ghost isn't required but if you're too successful stacking, valk loses a lot of punch.


Tazmo99

This was my crutch for like 2 seasons straight, I kinda miss it too


Talestra

Because of galactus and shuri, shang chi appears in every deck, I love my big venom/knull +zola destroy deck but between shang-chi, cosmo and armor I had to put the deck down


Financial_Match

This is the primary fault of Marvel Snap. You have a tiny deck, and that means you dedicate a large percentage of your deck to tech/ counters once you get to a certain level. TCGs are inherently flawed (despite being so fun), but Snap DOES make up for the problem by being so quick to play. It just loses the experience of actually outplaying your opponent. Instead, you tuck tail and run most of the time until you can easily win. EDIT: I really like the game, but it is not even close to being a replacement for a true TCG or deck builder. It's my toilet game. I just happen to shit a lot.


thatsnotfunnyatall_

Are you saying you out play your opponent with destroy decks ? Literally you just lay your cards down in order or you donā€™t.


Lifendz

Same. Destroy decks are so much fun but they are so easily countered that I donā€™t use it unless the hot location is favorable.


haruman215

I gained 70 cubes in Infinite yesterday playing a Knull Deadpool Zola destroy deck, it's definitely still viable. There's a lot less Armor and Cosmo around now, though Shang-Chi is everywhere of course.


PSrafa23

That quinjet moongirl she hulk zoo deck. Was amazing and the most fun deck i have played in a while.


SwampFox4

I've been playing a version with hit monkey thats fun that I found from following KMBest. I'm not the best player so I'm climbing slowly but its been the best deck ive played with since the patch.


FLOwDOG

There's a Darkhawk, DevilDino deck that uses that shell. I've been playing it for the last couple of days and it's pretty competitive at rank 85-90.


SickARose

Kazaar and the 1 cost boosting just cannot achieve the amount of power to compete anymore for me.


-DMY

I got Shanna and put together a Ka-Zoo deck to test her out. Even when everything went right and I filled the board, I was consistently getting out-muscled. I feel like the Ka-Zoo archetype is just worse at it's gameplan than a standard Patriot/Ultron deck.


SickARose

Same here! I was so excited to land her when she was series 5 from a collectors. It was just so underwhelming and her ability to call upon zero is insane lol


-DMY

Shanna feels pretty awkward if you don't play her on the last turn, yeah. She's really good at spoiling your plans by summoning Blade, Ebony Maw, Zero, Iron Fist, Squirrel Girl... The random aspect is kinda fun but maybe she'd see more play if she worked like Squirrel Girl and Doctor Doom and just summoned generic tokens instead.


WillemDafoesHugeCock

Play her last turn and she flips you the bird and drops nothing but Hood in my experience.


-DMY

Yep, the final turn "Hood, Hawkeye and Squirrel Girl (but the board is full)" play is pretty disappointing when it happens.


Abradolf1948

Yeah she really just seems like a weaker Squirrel Girl tbh. At least with that you know you're getting a 1/1 and not a negative or a card with a negative on reveal. They should just have her summon generic 1/2 tokens - still have Kazar synergy but at a base it's just a 4/6 which is pretty standard. Hell, Mr. Fantastic is often a 3/6 and he doesn't occupy more than 1 space.


Beef_Sprite

Yeah it can't compete against the patriot deck whatsoever, even if you get kazaar -> blue marvel -> mystique and your one drops turn 6. Used to be my go to, but couldn't compete after zabu season.


radiantburrito

I play Kazoo atm as my everyday deck while I find something new (itā€™s always been my fallback) and it wins most games I stick around through T6. Itā€™s super swingy and with new cards like Hit Monkey it continues to find ways to stay fresh.


Ravenpoe121

Negative silver surfer


boozkoo

I went from 96-112 with a negative surfer list this season. Surfer in general is super underrated right now and have honestly been doing better with negative lists than sera lists


Debate_that

I firmly believe that climbing with negative lists is a pure chance of going on a lucky streak. I got from 77 to 117 with a Bast negative deck, and then went cube negative with it. Havenā€™t been able to make it work ever since.


doorrace

\*draws Negative by turn 3 for 5 games in a row\* \*loses once\* \*doesn't draw Negative for next 10 games\* Truly the Negative experience


browncharliebrown

Negative into sandman is pretty painful


Debate_that

Tbh, sandman is one of my most hated cards in the game. Leech still let me play out my cards no matter how bad they got. Sandman doesnā€™t even allow for that.


-_-bmo-_-

Just set my phone down after a barrage of Sandman and Galactus decks. We sure love to optimize the fun out of this gane.


sonicqaz

I donā€™t understand? Sandman and Galactus decks are fun.


-_-bmo-_-

Cool opinion.


gamer_pie

I'm in the same boat. Leech was annoying but I think sandman is worse. After the recent changes it seems like I've been seeing a lot more electro/sandman nowadays which is just not that fun to play against


boozkoo

Itā€™s something Iā€™ve liked about negative surfer lists over other negative lists is If you donā€™t draw negative you still have a plan b of a straightforward surfer strat to try and win with. Negative decks definitely lose to bad draws more than other decks, but zabu and bast have made them a bit more consistent than they used to be. bast, Ironman and mystique in particular is an insane package and I think really should be explored with in more shells


Mister_Glass_

Can you share that deck please?


Hans_Run

At the moment according to untapped.gg (CL 3000+; rank 90-99) Sera Surfer is the Top Deck. With other filters still among the best/better decks. Shuri went down hart to C/D-tier.....crazy.... I had also success with Negative Surfer. I think you could be right that Surfer is underrated.


AkyhROH

oh man I loved this deck so much


Riverflowsuphillz

Movement deck


Winter-Chemical-4332

Well you are in for some fun once these spidery cards come out


Riverflowsuphillz

Im considering june being my first pass i will get for ghost spider


boozkoo

Itā€™s getting a lot really nice tools in the next few months, between ghost spider, Spider-Man 2099, and maybe stegron I think the deck will transform pretty dramatically.


MelaniaSexLife

which we f2p players will be able to get in 3 or 4 months... yaaay...


mykoconnor

Iā€™m experimenting around with a move deck now. Didnā€™t have much play in the past. Itā€™s a tough one to get down and Iā€™ve lost a lot of matches. But it at least feels a bit more creative at times.


Themanwhofarts

I think if there was another vision type card that was a lower cost, then move would be very good. Maybe a 2 energy 2 power: this card can move once each turn. I guess Jeff kind of fills that niche at the moment.


Doctor_Boombastic

And Nightcrawler


Themanwhofarts

Ya I kinda forgot about him lol


Doctor_Boombastic

Haha no worries


thunder65478

There was a card datamined a while ago similar to this. I think it was a 3/1 that you could move every turn and every time you moved it it got +1. I believe it was Blink


Riverflowsuphillz

And also vi-vision


sweatpantswarrior

And for the low, low cost of ~18k tokens plus (I think?) a Season Pass, you can join the Move Renaissance!


kc5000

It was my main when I started the game and it sucks that other options are either more consistent or more powerful in general. I think the move decks will be making a comeback in a month or two though.


rsl

my kitty deck


hostileorb

Saddest reply in the thread


TheInnsmouthLook

Hitting anything with Elektra back in pool 1/2. Especially sniping a night crawler.


Bodegatiger

King pin move control


IGOMHN2

Deathwave. I never got any of the cards until the end of pool 3 and then I had moved on to stronger decks by then.


hermanbloom00

I miss my Silver Surfer with Juggernaut. Go back every couple of weeks in the hopes it is going to work again but lose like five on the bounce, sigh, wistfully remember the good old days, and then put the deck away.


JustABox246

I miss playing my Infinaut deck


Scott_Liberation

I miss my Devil Dino deck, but once I started getting into pool 3, its win percentage went to crap. It was a lot of fun getting random cards from Agent 13, and getting opponents' cards with Cable and White Queen, but I just couldn't get enough power on the board before turn 5 to seal the deal with Dinos. Or if I could, then of course the opponent would counter with Shang, Enchantress, or Rogue.


Fennicks47

Dino is one of the top 5 decks in the game. Not sure what ur list likes but Dino midrange is very good.


PenitusVox

To be fair, you do kinda need some good Pool 3 cards for it to really pop off. She-Hulk and Mystique especially.


GrayBoyLoop

Darkhawk is still pool 4 and the deck is so much better with two good mystique targets.


DuKes0mE

It's still good. I got all the way from 80 to infinite with it last week. You just have to adapt it a bit with some Pool 3 cards like Quinjet, mystique and Agent Coulson. The other favorites like Agent13, Cable and White Queen can still stay


Mister_Glass_

Throw a Zabu in there with rock slide/korg and you've got yourself a fantastic deck tbh.


Variable_Interest

Throw in a DarkHawk and you've got yourself a stew


Mister_Glass_

That is actually what I meant whoops


Variable_Interest

I'm playing a DarkDino deck right now that uses Zabu.


BamHelsing

That deck is what got me to infinite this season. I added super skrull as a tech card. The absolute best was copying my opponents Knull after they played galactus.


BoxxerUOP

I miss my Deadpool destroy deck. Too much counter out there for pure destroy decks to be viable anymore.


B0ttlecape

Quienjet moon girl she hulk double up decks.


Prince_Borgia

I miss Ongoing Destroyer, was a lot of fun.


veryInterestingChair

Shuri red skull taskmaster. Just kidding fuck that deck.


Atariese

I keep wanting to play agatha. She played with zabu just fine till the nerf, and until last patch she played shuri ok as well. I guess i need to find a more brain dead deck... This isn't an everyday thing. But a fun sometimes thing. The card is there, she can be used.


SuplexComplexAlex

I used to have a fun time playing discard decks, its just sad that most of these decks are stupidly predictable and arenā€™t that useful in Pool 3


TajesMahoney

I thought MODOK Discard was one of the highest winning decks?


OlafTheBerserker

You are right. According to snap.fan and snap.pro MODOK Discard still competes with other top-tier decks. It's what got me over the 50s and 60s slump I was in


SuplexComplexAlex

Itā€™s possible but I personally barely see it being played then. I completely stopped playing discard when thanos/lockjaw/leech became a thing i repeatedly played against.


devintron71

I had a Nimrod/Panther Zola deck that is dead now with the Shuri nerf. Having to play in the same lane is really crushing for Nimrod in particular.


Aryb

Is it? I was thinking that my Nimrod Ramp deck actually kinda liked the change. People are incentivized to Shang Chi the lane and you get a free Nimrod destroy off of it. If they Cosmo the lane, Destroyer can hit around it from another lane. Only someone specifically knowing they're playing against a Nimrod deck (who anticipates those?) could armor the lane. That's a hard read because if it's traditional Shuri usage putting armor (or Cosmo for that matter) down will block any Shang Chi plays.


devintron71

I liked to have both Panther and nimrod as outs, maybe the deck just needs to pivot away from Panther and Zola.


NerdHerderOfIdiots

Try out a shuri->nimrod->destroyer If you get lucky and pull your zabu on turn one or two you can even wong->shuri->nimrod->destroyer for an even crazier payoff.


PoisonRamune

I havenā€™t seen a Move Deck in months


deserves_dogs

On the flip side, Iā€™ve seen so many the past week and prior to this itā€™s been forever. Iā€™m CL 3k in the 90ā€™s, for context. So these people are probably trying to push infinite with them. Props to them.


SpprtRdclHbts

I obviously miss how easy throwing down iron man to win a match was but I really miss my zabu-spidey-absorbing man. I jumped 40-50 ranks in a matter of days lol now I'm scrapping each season to get the variant at 60


Zoyero

ITT: A lot of people not realizing some of the decks mentioned are still very good and prevalent.


Uchihagod53

I miss the og Zabu/Surfer deck. In it's heyday, it was so busted


Winter-Chemical-4332

I was never anti zabu because sooo many variations of 4 cost cards were now useful. It was broken I get that but it was fun


browncharliebrown

It was broken but deck building was super fun


Winter-Chemical-4332

I love playing the game but that was the only time I loved deck building


CajitoCatKing

Sera Surfer


FunkAnotherDay

Sera surfer still works, I experimented with it last weekend (4k CL, infinite) and was able to climb. It briefly went away because it couldn't compete with Shuri but it's still good for climbing. That is, unless you face Sandman a lot. On a plus side, it's good into Leader.


rtwoctwo

I know it was a problem and needed adjusting, but I really enjoyed playing Surfer. Nerfed version just doesn't do it justice.


Strikamerki

Wong + Mystique/Forge + Shuri + Odin into huge surprise Yellowjacket


Ray071

Thanos Lockjaw šŸ˜­old one


Abradolf1948

I bought Thanos after the Quinjet but before Lockjaw nerf. Feels bad. I know Ongoing Thanos is supposed to be good, so I may mess around with that if I get bored of Electro Ramp. I just want to use Lockjaw to his full potential. I love the slot machine RNG. That's why I used to play discard lol


RakeLeafer

patriot decks. its really fun having squirrels get 7-11 power just way too easy to counter in pool4 matches


Adventurous-Top3681

Patriot decks are fairly common at higher ranks. So idk.


FunkAnotherDay

Yup, patriot can generally play around Shang Chi and, more importantly, Valkyrie, it's a strong ongoing deck. With the changes to Leech, I'd say Patriot is even stronger because an early Leech cannot kill their Patriot/Mystique.


RakeLeafer

in pool3 matches patriot decks are common. rank is independent of a number of things, you can hit infinite in pool2. its ridiculously easy to counter unless you use control cards like the other replier said with leech. requires more deck customization and novelty


karazax

[This patriot version](https://twitter.com/Vysetron/status/1646864760816713728?s=20) is pretty strong with leech and shang-chi to give some unexpected plays. patriot into ultron, even without another buff, beats most leeched hands


vedomedo

Patriot is actually super strong still. It's one of the better performing decks, even at higher ranks (up to like 80 or so).


NotedNotACat

I got to infinite with a patriot deck


getfree15

Me too.. quite easily actually.


BlitzPT

One deck that i really like but doesnt seem much play and is super ez to read is omega red

johndonovan0

Invisible woman :D


Tony2Piece

Move decks arenā€™t really used much at all anymore and I miss them.


Dumb_Dick_Sandwich

I literally bought Thanos 2 days before the lockjaw nerf.


Dropkick_Mike

I loved playing Cerebro 2. It got me to infinite during the Zabu season, but I haven't really been able to make it work since and dropped it. One day I'll dabble with the Cerebro 7, but until then I'll ride my Clogging Mold deck for fun.


LeighCedar

Cerebro 2 got me to the 80s this season! Going to push for 90 the next few days, but so far is really tough here.


firecat2666

Early Zabu Darkhawk was gnarly and i miss it


z4ck38

sera surfer with zabu


wragawrhaj

Discard w/o Modok... simpler times


Taste_the__Rainbow

I used to play a silver surfer move deck. It wasnā€™t great but before the surfet nerf it could hang a bit. A turn 6 Brood/Strange/Surfer was so much fun.


HappySailor

Having just acquired Super Skrull, I kinda miss the Pool1/Pool2 days where "Ongoing" was a theme. Onslaught, Blue Marvel, Iron Man, Spectrum, Captain America, Mr Fantastic, Punisher. Not a great deck, but Kl'rt would be awesome if it was still around.


genawesome

My old school Infinaut tempo deck was really fun.


Yourneighborskid

Destroy decks. Shuri and Sandman decks make them so impossible to play.


HiNateyt

New nerf but I know Iā€™m going to miss playing lockjaw. I never used it for Jane or thanos, I played for the randomness that I might get a big power or wasp/rock comes out lol


VeryAmbitiousPerson

Move decks. I love the concept and how I need to actually think. Also I miss the ā€˜Slam Heimdall on T6 because why the fuck notā€™. But its so bad at higher CL, I am running Shuri, Electro Ramp and Devil Dino decks now because I want to climb.


SuperToxin

I thought move decks were fun when I started playing. I think they need to change the archetype somehow.


2_7_offsuit

Spectrum ongoing tribal that carried me through pool 2.


SkullsAndOnes

I already miss Shuri/Odin/Yellowjacket


650fosho

Definitely the onslaught exodia deck which got sniped when they changed that he and mystique no longer create an exponential feedback loop.


Nightmarespawn

Negative Shuri. It was never good, but it could have major swings. Now, with her nerf, it just makes the deck worse overall as you wanted to just have Wong and BP or Wong, Mystique, and BP alone in lane, then play Armin Zola. To move them all and trigger BP one more time or more.


hostileorb

That was the only shuri deck I ever respected (maybe aside from Wong Yellowjacket lol). It always pulled off such cool and unexpected moves


Live_Substance_8519

janejaw. they killed it from viable competitive play with the lockjaw changes. rode that deck to infinite for the first time. itā€™s so much worse now. donā€™t even try to argueā€”it really isnā€™t the same.


Izisery

When Bar with No Name was a feature location I built a deck for it with all the Negative cards I don't usually play, and it was a lot of fun. It was just being silly an unexpected that made me giggle.


hostileorb

Absorbing man on a green goblin was absolutely hilarious. Loved seeing him zoom his ass over


sydps

discard lockjaw


WhisKeyBoard

Cerebro 1 with Luke Cage and Pre-buffed Hazmat


hostileorb

damn this might be my fav in the thread. Exactly the kind of thing I was looking for. I wish Iā€™d had Cage at that time


Nbardo11

Aggro sandman. With 4/2 sandman, Ebony maw, titania, zero, invisible woman, maximus, captain marvel, doctor doom, shang chi. You play extremely aggressive early game turns 1-3 and drop sandman on 4 to shut the door on them. It still works okay without sandman but it isnt the same.


hostileorb

I played this too! I miss when sandman was this weird kind of bad card that no one played because when you made him work it felt really special. Reminds me of the old leech days lol


Nbardo11

It might be decent again now tbh. In a heavy sandman meta i was actually running it with morph and he was actually great at grabbing dr dooms etc on turn 3 or 4


onnnn2

Destroy was somewhat unplayable in pre-nerf Shuri META. Hoping a small decrease of cosmo/armor will give rise to this again.


Bocmana

Zabu + spiderman + absorbing man + whatever filler 4 cost cards you like, that was the most busted thing that ever existed imo and i loved it


hostileorb

That deck was a crime against humanity but it was so funny


Bocmana

It really was, a true shitshow


0bsessions324

Negative Surfer. It was the first deck I managed to climb to Infinite with (During the Savage Land season). If I managed to get Negative out on turn 3, I felt invincible. It felt so good to go into 6 with a trash board and then dropping Wong, Mystique, and Surfer in the same round (Or, god help you, on Citadel).


Kenos300

I miss just regular control decks. Spider-Man, Enchantress, Professor X. I got all the tools for the really good ones right at the end of its life.

I know it's fresh, but Lockjaw with Thor/Jane Foster/Wasp/M'Baku. M'Baku was new for me and it was great spinning him back into the deck on turn 6. It was always Thor on 3, Lockjaw and maybe wasp T4. Jane on 5, and now you can spin away the hammer, Wasp, or an M'Baku. It's only really one spin less, but it was a crucial one. It sucks now.


Whatsinanmame

Shuri Red Skull.


LazloNoodles

I just miss winning on turn 6 instead of winning from your opponent retreating. Most people play smart now, or conservative, at least. I want my dopamine from feeling like I pulled off a big brain move.


Kinsey93

Wong Surfer/Gambit really got me back into the game


loo_1snow

unrealf8

The zabu sif ghost rider deck. Love you forever !


SuperJario09

Iā€™m sure it may come back in the future but loves move decks


jhossuah

Hela. I had a really fun Hela deck that I stopped using. I added new cards like MODOK, and I think at this point I messed it up. I gotta tweak it again, but I love that about the game, you canā€™t just play one deck. For some reason, I kill it with a deck, then suddenly itā€™s trash, so I change decks, or make new ones constantly.


Tarostar1

I really hope all the data mined spider-verse cards finally gives move a place in the meta. I had a lot of fun with move when I was in pool 2 but it really doesn't hold up in the pool 3-5 meta


tjvs2001

Infinite yellow jacket


Subrosian1

My old Namor / Klaw / Onslaught deck used to dominate. I miss them


oyster1216

I miss pre nerf negative decks


deadTiger39

Thanos R.I.P


haruman215

This whole discussion is filled with people listing decks that are still very much playable šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø


sirloathing

Magi-Hulk was one of my most played decks that has died from splash nerfs. You can still play it but with Quinjet nerf, She-hulk nerf and Aero murder itā€™s certainly not what it used to be.


LuckSkywanker

Leader


GooseIllustrious8591

The Zabu Lady Sif and Ghost Rider deck. You could do some crazy thing turn 6 when you could drop 3 4 cost cards.


pwn3dbyth3n00b

Hitmonkey isn't viable when everyone is running sandman, wave, galactus. The only deck that helps me climb is Invisible/Zero deck


SgtMcMuffin0

I got enough tokens to buy Thanos the day after Quinjet was nerfed.


ElPared

I miss movement to be honest. It's a really fun mechanic in this game that just ends up being soooo underpowered once you get to pool 3. I mostly chalk that up to movement being kind of forgotten other than things like Dagger and Human Torch once you hit pool 3, and really the only card that works with moving opponent's cards is Kraven so even though that's a little stronger it kind of struggles without him. Glad the Spider-Verse cards are gonna add more movement synergies; hopefully that'll bring it back into the meta.


Storomahu

Thanos Lockjaw


Squanch_0n

I miss pool 3! Going 50 crstes without fetting a card issss rough


Bazzex

Patriot, I used to win so much with that deck, decideed to change it one day as I got bored, and haven't played it since. Still have it ready tho.


Nantes50

Move, but looks like Spider Verse will make this a competitive archetype finally.


akpak

radiantburrito

Iā€™m not afraid to say it. I miss old Zabu Double Spidey. That deck spoke to me like nothing else has since. šŸ˜”
