"Featuring a pair of motorcycle enthusiasts" Oh boy, this'll be good! Also the Billion-Dollar punch that threw Star Lord into the car you didn't place Iron Man within 1 of the target.

[@AegisbrandStudios]

It was a wild ride from start to finish

Side topic. Very cool to see Marvel Champions and Boss Monster on thr shelf in the beginning of thr video. teaching bith games this weekend. Thanks for the video. Have a great weekend.

[@darthballz0532]

I gotta say, when CGR maxes out the crazy, he’s reached full Nic Cage. Lol. Good batrep yall!

[@AegisbrandStudios]

Alex is always a blast to roll dice with. I am going to try and bring him back more often

[@TheFleahost]

Less than 50 seconds in and I’m confident in which team wins. Yep.

[@AegisbrandStudios]

Sometimes surprises can happen

[@wookiemart]

not a surprising outcome to be brutally honest. The absolute zero effort required to have Guardians and Ghost Riders synergize compared to just about everything else in the game is upsetting.

[@AegisbrandStudios]

It is a rather potent combo, no doubt about it. As much as you can try to plan into this team, you kind of have to lean back and hope the dice work out for you as well. Interestingly enough, Alex and I played in a tournament just the other week, and we had a very similar match to this, though no She Hulk in that one, and I came out way ahead of him in that

[@glennmatthews7851]

Shield agents could have moved again, as its one move action when holding a senator, so the move back would have been that one move

[@AegisbrandStudios]

My understanding is that once you have the asset, the game cares that you have already moved once before, but I will double check with those smarter than myself

[@darrell8660]

If Carol is in Binary and is rooted, she has to pay 1 power before changing back

[@AegisbrandStudios]

Yeah, learned that today from someone reaching out as well. This is definitely a matter of, foolishly, not being thorough, and treating it like other transforms that just happen automatically, which is definitely not the case here. It was a silly, edge case, oversight, but a good one to have called out, because I am betting I am not the only one to goof on that

[@darrell8660]

@@AegisbrandStudios It's not a common one for sure - but root + Loki is a very strong way to shut her down for a turn

[@AlJohnstone88]

The only thing that can control CGR is terrible dice...

[@AlJohnstone88]

Can you use winging it tokens if Starlord is KO'd?

[@AegisbrandStudios]

Yup

[@AlJohnstone88]

@@AegisbrandStudios Ah, I'd have thought the effects would be tied to his leadership/card

[@AegisbrandStudios]

I get it. AMG is sometimes a bit unclear with what does and does not function when dazed.

[@luisfranciscomontero1544]

Awesome game! She-Hulk went down too early, patch up would have been key. Think they’re considering banning the card.

[@AegisbrandStudios]

I would love to see patch up go, personally. It has lead to a fair few. negative play experiences. I would prefer medpak to be the available healing card

[@tommannering4520]

When Carol was shooting Groot from behind the bodega at the start, why didnt he get cover?

[@AegisbrandStudios]

If I recall correctly, he was not within range 1 of the bodega to take advantage of the cover

[@HellaAwesomes]

I believe Captain Marvel would not have had LOS on Groot. The Bodega is a size 3, Captain Marvel is size 2, but she could have just made the attack atop the Bodega. Probably wouldn’t have made a difference. 6:15.

[@AegisbrandStudios]

Line of sight only cares about the target, not the attacker
