Learn how to play Daredevil and his sense deck with me as I unbox Fear No Evil and run his Justice precon against expert Klaw!!! My initial impressions are that Daredevil is super fun but way more difficult to pilot and sequence than i expected. There are so many different options of which cards to play each turn because he can always fall back on his sense deck.
My top 10 protection heroes! Decklists are included and linked for each hero mentioned for anyone who wants to try them out. This was the most difficult aspect to list for because protection has so many different archetypes that synergize with different hero kits so I ended up eliminating a lot of duplicate perfect defense heroes for who i thought were the most fun/synergistic in that archetype.
Decklists are included and linked for each hero mentioned for anyone who wants to try them out! Who’s your favorite hero to play in Justice?
I invited the unretired VillainTheory Chillin’ Theory on for a tier list debate! Now that we’ve gotten some new Avenger heroes like Hercules and Tigra in the Civil War wave, it’s time to discuss where they all rank and who is the most powerful Avenger in the game. Timestamps are included for every hero discussed
Thor isn’t a top 10 strongest hero or anything like that, but he’s far from the bottom in my experience. He really shines with the new card pool with minion summoning cards in every aspect, but even with a smaller collection like only core set cards he can hold his own. I demonstrate how to pilot Thor with a Justice deck and explain why I like to not play Mjolnir on turn 1 so every time Thor flips down to alter-ego he can tutor Mjolnir flying back to hand to help with his early game economy.
In this video, I summarize and share my thoughts on the new cards revealed in Fantasy Flight Games' recent Marvel Champions livestream. Olivia, Tony, and Aaron talked about a bunch of Marvel Champions news including promo cards for Fear No Evil, their favorite aspects, Daredevil as an identiy-specific ally for more than 1 Defender hero (cough Elektra), Luke Cage’s final missing upgrade, and card reveals for the starting aspect cards that will be in the hero packs for this wave.

Decklists are included and linked for each hero mentioned. My favorite archetypes with aggression are minion slayers and weapon exhaust so most heroes on this list have synergy with one or the other, but there are some like Ghost-Spider who just have unique synergies with aggression’s interrupts/responses. Who’s your favorite aggression hero and did they make my list?
I evaluate every hero for how much synergy they have with the shiny new leadership support: Righteous Purpose. I had a lot of disagreements with chat for the lower tiers but everyone mostly agreed on the best heroes with this card—Maria Hill is one of the best Voltron heroes in the game with Pericles and Field Agent while playing in leadership with Righteous Purpose. Falcon and Magik also basically have a permanent 3 THW/3 ATK Cosmo with Righteous Purpose, and I speculated that Daredevil would be an amazing hero with Elektra staying in play forever too. Which hero/decks are you excited to pair with Righteous Purpose and were there any synergies that chat and I missed in the stream?
Huge shoutouts to the Brandt for sending me the custom Zombie modular set that they will be featuring at the Assemble Con Event July 17-19! I decided to playtest this encounter set with Zola since he buffs minions and I went with Black Panther for a fun Wakandan vs Zombie theme. It’s honestly an incredibly well made modular set feeling difficult and very thematic in capturing the feeling of how zombies relentlessly attack which you can see in this playthrough. If you’re able to attend the event, here is the sign up link: https://ti.to/the-portal/assemble-zombies
I’m in no way affiliated with Assemble and am not sponsored by them, just vouching for a friend after playtesting the module!

As a tier list connoisseur, when FFG sent content creators all the remaining cards from the Fear No Evil expansion I realized I had to rank EVERY card in the box. Hope you enjoy this format and these Daredevil reveals 🤩
Normally, legacy environment products like NeXt Evolution don’t get reprinted/restocked, but Asmodee has this expansion in stock again on their website. SnowyOwl recently purchased a copy of this NE reprint and was kind enough to confirm in a comment that his copy has the new environmentally friendly circle tape (instead of the old shrink wrap) which confirms that NE was reprinted and this isn’t just leftover stock. I’m not sure what this means for the other out of print products (looking at Sinister Motives 👀) but it’s great to see an expansion that should be faded into the legacy environment get reprinted and become accessible for new players. NE is available right now! https://store.asmodee.com/products/marvel-champions-the-card-game-next-evolution-expansion
In this episode, I talk to TheBrandt from Step Into the Portal about his experience working at a local game store. I ask him how sales for Marvel Champions is doing and when sales were at their best. Although this is all anecdotal, it was encouraging to hear how the game is doing better than ever at his store despite the past year’s releases of less popular heroes.
2 new Daredevil cards revealed from FFG socials! I give my thoughts on how they make this hero even stronger and discuss fun aggression combos i plan on using with these cards.
Showcasing Spider-Man’s unchanged justice precon against one of the newer scenarios in Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.—Expert Black Widow! Can Peter handle Widow’s high scheming?!
My favorite part when using limited card pool decks is being able to utilize underrated cards like Spider-Tracers and Webbed Up which are both clutch!
In this video, I give a recap of FFG's livestream discussion where they showcased a bunch of new cards from the Fear No Evil expansion. I also summarized new info that the design team shared and recap how Daredevil's kit works from the preview article that was also released today.
Taking on standard II/expert II Ultron with the Future Past module using the infinite loop combo created by the Spanish content creator, Gambito: https://youtube.com/@gambitocards?si=QieUyHgjHb_oSdzo
This combo requires a mutant hero with a triple resource to play Mutant Mayhem, replaying the Beast and Phoenix allies indefinitely. Shoutouts to Gnarlantlers who built this Deadpool deck for me to join in on the fun: https://marvelcdb.com/decklist/view/61660/infinite-montage-1.0
In this video, I recap everything we know about Echo from her preview article, shoutout some predictions that we got correct in previous livestreams, and discuss some cool combos/overlooked info in her kit.
One of the craziest combos I plan on doing is teaming up Spider-Woman with Echo since Spider-Woman has some powerful identity-specific cards that are also classified as aspect cards. Because of this, Echo can most likely mimick these abilities with her Photographic Reflexes and play Spider-Woman’s events for -2 cost!
A really cool detail about Echo’s Photographic Reflexes is that it’s not an action, and with the way it’s worded it seems to be playable out of turn or even during the villain phase. So if Echo tucked a defense event like Desperate Defense, she should be able to discard Photographic Reflexes while she’s defending during the villain’s attack to play Desperate Defense for -2 cost.
We also know that Echo is missing a card from her kit because her identity card is numbered #37A and #37B. Her ally, Daredevil, is numbered #39. What could #38 be?
