Life Model Decoy is the best 0. (I can steal everything about you? Yeah!)
Holocaust [Nemesis] is the best 6. (You can't argue with that effect.)
The Sentry [Mighty Avenger] is the best 8. (See Holocaust.)
Tenebrous [Of the Darkness] is the best 9. (Galactus used to be the best but, Tenebrous stops Galactus.)
The Beyonder [Inhuman] (So, we haven't OFFICIALLY seen him but, he's better than Death, if he's the foil to her. He has a better ability by recover my character(s) and, he's a 10-drop with 28 ATK / 30 DEF.)

cosmic i have a question...did you just rip others for putting quicksilver and superman at their 0 cost and no cost places......and then put life model decoy at 0.....when you have to pay X points and play him...he can only steal stuff if you pay the points....so by your point he's not a 0 cost...he's X cost.....and if the beyonder is the same as death then wouldn't he be better as a plot twist...i don't know of anyone that's going to be running death or beyonder as characters...they're searchable non negatable plot twists...i'm not trying to pick a fight or anything here...but you shouldn't go call out guys for their picks and then pick 2 characters that don't count where you place them....
With MUN here I would make the following list:
No Cost: Superman, Last son of Krypton
0: Quicksilver, House of M (this guy is just nuts you hear me...nuts!!!!)
1: The riddler, Riddle me this (who hasn't either abused him or have him abused against you???)
2: Deadshot, Floyd Lawton
3: Wolverine, Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D-hydra (wolvie can now attack directly...wait it just say can! it doesn't say can't like Elektra, really...what were you into when you made this one????)
4: Dr. Doom, Diabolic Genius (guess he can't go down)
5: Black Manta, Underwater marauder (over Garth just because it is a Secret Society Character)
6: Deathstroke the terminator (I leave only your biggest cost character non stunned...oops here it goes)
7: Terrax, Herald (so useful yet so unappreciated..give him some love)
8: The sleeper, Doomsday device-RAID (ohhh..I give all CL Elektra's ability...wait, I am a CL)
9: Galactus, Devourer of Worlds (is there really any discussion here??)
10: Death, Second force of the universe (You can splash here in any deck and it will do something!!!!)
*WARNING! WARNING! RANT AHEAD! If you wish to view my personal "curve of death" scroll down until "/rant" appears*
I just got done reading through the last few pages of this thread and I have to saw... WTF?
A character's cost is in the upper-left hand corner of the card and it is the amount of resources you pay when you recruit the character. Go look at your old Fantastic Four starter rulebook or any other rulebook you own. Flip to the page with a "breakdown" of what each bit on the character card means. You'll see an arrow pointing at the upper-left hand corner that says "cost". You know what that means? It means that is a card's cost.
Further more proof of the upper-left being COST via an example: Batman, Twilight Vigilante has an effect that reads "Whenever Batman stuns a defender, its controller loses additional endurance equal to its cost." Now, tell me, when Batman stuns the new Quicksilver, how much additional endurance does that character's controller lose? 0 or 3? Further more are you telling me that if Batman stuns Kendra Saunders <> Hawkgirl, Thanagarian Heroine, who says "To recruit, discard a card", the controller is supposed to lose 2 additional endurance plus whatever the endurance equivalent is of a card discard?
Finally, if you are going to start saying that downside powers/"to recruit" powers are costs, then you sure as heck better start listing every possible combination of card "costs" in your curve of death. I want to see your "2-drop, reveal a Teen Titans character" choice, your 3-drop "reveal an X-Statix character", and all the rest.
A cost according to the game is what is in the upper-left hand corner, not what you personally see as the "cost" of playing the card. You aren't at all wrong to consider them costs in your mind but the game doesn't care about your opinion, only about the upper-left hand corner.

Ah, yes, 2nd. Thanks. I actually edited out so I wouldn't get caught if I was wrong but apparently you were too fast :p.
And sorry about the rant. Normally I'm happy to stay off to the side just throwing in things like "This card owns" or "lol" or various asides but I do occasionally blow my lid if something really annoys me like how some in this thread really, really annoyed me with the "Well, Quicksilver isn't a 0-cost he's a 2/3/whatever-cost" type stuffs. Cost is in the upper-left. Case closed. You may return to your regularly scheduled programming.
0). Quicksilver
1). The Riddler, DCL
2). Viper MUN, Dr. Sivana
3). Poison Ivy, Intoxicating DCL, Nick Fury MUN
4). Wonder Woman, Avatar of Peace, Hulk MUN
5). Sinister, Black Manta
6). Rogue MAA, Deathstroke
7). Gorilla Grodd
8). Tenebrous
9). Anti-Monitor
10). Imperiex
11). Silver Surfer, Herald
tenebrous is a 9 and why grodd at 7?
0: quicksilver
1: riddler, riddle me this
2: quicksilver (mhg)
3: i cant pick anything other than ahmed for this one.
4: Punisher, guns blazing (darkseid is close)
5: Black manta
6: Batman, cape and cowl
7: Juggs
8: Captain marvel
9: Galactus. (tenebrous is too much of a toss-up for me)
10: Beyonder (more general use than imperiex and stats arn't bad either)
11: Silver surfer
ø - Superman; no contest.
0 - Haywire; Haywire is combo-friendly.
1 - Dagger, Child of Light - searched out by wild ride, can find midnight sons, can bounce to hand? Yes please. She is the lynchpin of the midnight sons engine; how many other 1-drops are as well integrated into an engine as her? /bias
2 - Quicksilver; proven himself in many top tier decks. no competition.
3 - Ahmed; same.
4 - The Captain; THE CAPTAIN!!!!
5 - Iron Man; He's busted.
6 - Bastion; He ran riot for nearly an entire YEAR! If that doesn't merit him a spot on the curve of death, then the curve of death shouldn't run a 6-drop.
7 - Spider-Man, TASM; YES! My fav. card ever, 3rd time reigning champion please.
8 - Silver Surfer; the fan4 surfer did wonders in MSM, and I was glad to see him reprinted. he basically says GG.
9 - Galactus; I eats you
10 - Imperidex; I've been converted.
11 - Silver Surfer - never losing is pretty good I hear (oh and no competition to boot.)
edit: if banned cards are allowed, I'm changing ahmed to Dr. Light.
Changed it again:
Quicksilver auto lost to Haywire!
The Captain defeated Dr. Doom!
Iron Man defeated Garth<>Tempest!
Imperidex layed the smack down on Stardust!
