I've been reading a couple of posts from different websites and I've noticed that a handful of people are writing QuickSilver, the Speed Demon off and passing him off as a bad character compared, to say a Scarlet Witch? I'm not a TNB or Big Brotherhood player but I was just wondering why this is the case? Looking at his ability, I'd say he is a pretty strong character. But I'd like to get your take on this.

Who said Quicksilver is bad? If people want to use Scarlet Witch instead, let them. It's better for the rest of us. Quicksilver is what gets TNB fifth turn wins.

True. If you were using a TNB deck (which I know your not - pref for Big Bro), how many Quicksilvers (5) would you be putting in that deck? 4? If so, how many Magnetos (5)? I'm looking at the character curve for most TNBs and noticed that they usually only pack around four (4) five casting cost characters. Do you personally follow the same count?

I don't have a preference for any deck. When I play in tournaments I am there to win money and I play what I think gives me the best chance to do that given the current metagame. Having an "attachment" to a certain deck is a weakness.

Good TNB decks will use at least six 5 drops. About 90% are some combination of Magneto and Quicksilver.

Question, based on your experience, what deck is the most succesful right now in the current field for Marvel VS?

I totally agree. In fact, I have seen one "writer" who won a recent PCQ go so far as to call Quicksilver "awful." In my testing, Quicksilver SD is one of the main reasons to run Big Brotherhood in the first place. Absolute blasphemy to not run QS IMHO.
