A Rambling Review of Magik | Marvel Champions

"The Sound of Silence" Deck: marvelcdb.com/decklist/view/45319

[@MCDeckDiscussions]

Magic is one of my favorite heroes to play, and I never realized all this time that Scrying is an Action rather than a hero action! She was already very cool and strong to begin with!

[@solomarvelchampion]

I played 4 or 5 games with her before I realized it was an action LOL

[@MCDeckDiscussions]

@@solomarvelchampion And I've played her far more times than that and never noticed! I really enjoyed this video review by the way. I think this is a good format for reviews. I did have a thought about the complexity category while I was watching. I like it's inclusion, and I was wondering, though, about that category being averaged with the rest because it feels kind of like a separate thing that can be positive or negative, so it can sway the average in ways you might not want it to. I was thinking that another possibility would be to just average the other 4 categories and then allow the complexity score to give it a + or a - (or have no impact at all if complexity scores a 3). Just a thought, though. No matter what I really enjoyed this! Oops! I meant Ease of Play rather than Complexity.

[@solomarvelchampion]

@@MCDeckDiscussions I hear what you're saying, but I included Ease of Play in the average because I wanted it to affect the total score, and is why I called it Ease of Play rather than Complexity. A High ease of play raises the total rating while a low ease of play lowers it. Ig a hero has 1's and 2's in all other categories but it super easy to play their score goes up a little. That said though, I might eliminate the average altogether and just use the categories. I haven't decided yet LOL

[@MCDeckDiscussions]

@@solomarvelchampion LOL. I understand the dilemma! Still, either way I'll enjoy more of these! By the way, I've begun play testing with my Justice Captain Marvel Deck. I have two more battles against expert Magneto and then I'll start play testing your deck. Up front, I like the way you included 3 copies of Float Like a Butterfly knowing that you can use the extras to power up Energy Channel and make it so that you're guaranteed to get Float Like a Butterfly as soon as your ready to take advantage of it. I think that's a clever way of adapting to Captain Marvel's strengths in her deck. 🙂

[@solomarvelchampion]

@MCDeckDiscussions-n5n I'll do more like this for sure. I feel like I really need to love a hero to do this though, so it won't be for every hero. Very early on I probably would have only included 1 Float, but I've played her a LOT now and extra energy resources are always welcome lol

[@chadhostetter1632]

I thought it sucked that there were only 2 copies of Soul Strike and Exorcism, but didn't think about playing them multiple times haha. I've only played her a few times, but I'll give her another shot!

[@solomarvelchampion]

@@chadhostetter1632 the biggest mistake I make with her is using her ability more than once per phase. Try to find a good way to mark that you've used it lol

[@prufrock1977]

You’ve inspired me to get her back out for a run of games. Might even try out your deck, if I have the cards for it. She’s a fun brain-burner.

[@solomarvelchampion]

@@prufrock1977 Yeah even on turns that don't go exactly the way you want she's fun!

[@OresteGamba]

Awesome hero. Thanks for the video and for the deck. Bookmarked it. Liking to play different playstyles.

[@solomarvelchampion]

@@OresteGamba thanks for watching! She's a lot of fun to play even when I mess up with her LOL

[@OresteGamba]

@solomarvelchampion probably tier A+, still undecided if tier S...

[@solomarvelchampion]

@@OresteGamba I agree with A+. Her complexity pushes her out of S for me!

[@OresteGamba]

@@solomarvelchampion yes, she is a bit complex...
