I can't believe they actually said that! They renew my faith in this game's future every time they do something like that.

I loved loved loved this review! Characters like Arcade take some strategy to use effectively, so most people aren't going to bother with them. They don't know what they're missing.

It's nice that they confirmed that unaffiliated characters are a tad cheaper than they would be if they were on a team.

Now I'm so hyped up for an unaffiliated deck I can't even think.

So what do you think the last one will be? Maybe they'll go out with a whimper and do Moira MacTaggert.

I'm actually going to try and build a competitive n-a deck. I'll let everyone know if it works;)

makes sense - baically, it means that the Team Affiliation (like in Heroclix) is worth something in card construction.

My guess? It'll be a major character - either Spidey, another Wolvie, or perhaps a Professor X.

Arcade sounds great! Great power and he can fit into any deck. Metagame has been on a roll with great articles over the past few days.

As for the last article, IF it is a single character, I bet Kergy is right on the money with those choices. Magneto (have they done all of him?) or maybe Hulk wouldn't surprise me much either. Personally, I think they'll end doing something broader though, not sure what. Maybe just miscellanious thoughts that haven't been covered yet.

Way to go Kergy! That's what I like to hear. I'm sure you can do it. The only deck that I'm convinced is unplayable is , tragically, the one I most want to build a deck around, the Skrull/Negative Zone/Puppet Master combo.

-grin- well I have high hopes for the Negative Zone - i LOVE those cards! I'd love to see what you come up with.

Personally, I'm waiting for DC so I can make a Negative/Phantom Zone deck;)

Cheers!

...

A Fantastic Four Enemy/Superman Enemy combo theme deck? That would be the pinnacle of all that is awesome!

But I promised myself before I started this game that I wouldn't play any decks that don't make sense. I've got to think of a reason why they'd team up.

Wait a minute... the answers right in your post! Superman gets fed up with the revolving door at Stryker's Island, so he blasts all his enemies into the Phantom Zone. Well it turns out the Phantom Zone and the Negative Zone are both just part the Twilight Zone, so everybody in those two universes decides to pick up some Skrull buddies, stop by Latveria for some drinks, and then go cause some trouble!

Or maybe Toyman and Puppet Master just meet at Hobby Hut. That's good too.
