It's crazy that I've played like 20 games since yesterday and haven't seen shadow king even once after the buff (I'm infinite). People really don't understand how that cards works I think

[@nightbarongaming3237]

They were waiting for cozy to upload decks with him 😅

[@Schrodingers_Cat25]

I am a shadow king user. I use him in my surfer decks. Yesterday I was hit with the shadow king nerf cuz you know silver surfer synergy. I will still keep him in my surfer decks as his irrelevancy makes him an absolute unit. I am using HE decks now tho bcz a HE a day keeps those lokis away

Too busy playing allioth

[@neojd]

Seen him a couple times in conquest but not as much as I thought there’d be.

[@iDrKx]

I meet Shadow King, Alioth Galactus or Loki every game in EU

[@oftenbetterthanone]

A meta deck with Shadow King and Snowguard... what a time to be alive.

[@TheSubconscious022]

Honestly the prevalence of alioth really hurts sera. Can still win but not having priority into alioth is brutal. Lockdown matchups in particular are pretty bad.

[@crash2bandicot]

Sera is actively bad in this meta

[@ThallesMan]

And will be even worse when Mobius arrives

[@vermjn1211]

​@@ThallesManrogue/mobius can counter the other mobius

[@lhellhammer]

Yep , ran into this in conquest, and honestly felt bad for the other guy.

[@natojigames]

Second that. Sera has nothing to do or counter the meta, especially in Conquest. The Alioth/Galac/ProfX absolutely annilhates it, and the Alioth's rising counter, Evo/Armor/Cosmos/Wave will kill the dream on turn 5. I love the archetype but you will end up behind those in terms of priority early, so to lose.

[@305kennyken]

I've been getting so many people with snow guard Hawk when they play Magic. It's funny and I'm happy you're the first KZbinr I know who mentioned snow guard Hawk to counter Magic

Too much Wave going on right now in my opinion for this to be consistently beating stuff :/

Would love to see more Ladder play - the topic I’m interested in is hitting Infinite. Reached Infinite in July and August this year, but I often get stuck forever in the mid-90s and would love some tips for how to navigate that final push.

[@DeputyNomNoms]

My thought was also that the meta is in kind of a weird place where most of what we'll see in Conquest is Loki so taking these decks into ladder will better showcase it up against other deck types

[@leandrocarvalho7707]

I was stuck forever between 95 - 100 😅 I used a destroy deck with Alioth and Shang, often lost to Galactus and pretty much any deck with Armour

Not too long ago I was sad that I spent 3 spotlights and couldnt get alioth, seeing a deck where I can use hit monkey and snowguard definitely makes it better

[@jamestruelove8937]

I have a quick question what do you replace with snow guard and hit monkey if you don't have those two? Oh yeah by the way cozy love your Snapchat annulled by the way you have been killing it thank you for that guy's from time to time and you just been a really good helpful for me man thank you❤!

[@therailgun_8299]

Only card I'm missing is spider pig but I replaced it with Scarlet Witch and deck runs like a fine machine. I need more practice with piloting but damn I'm in love.

[@nickmajora]

Got HIt Monkey this week so looking to finally play a good amount of Sera Control and this new version looks nice.

[@TheMrcoryrsmith]

Thanks Cozy for exposing the deck I was using to climb. Now everyone knows my secret. Also the better name for it is Miracle Monkey, because you can get an absolutelly huge monkey on turn 6

[@samuelludescher6978]

Stealing this name. Hopefully no one will notice me until I'm infinite

This deck has existed for the game's entire lifespan lmao what are you talking about

[@TheMrcoryrsmith]

@@tomekk.1889 no one said it wasn’t around? I said no one was playing it. Now, it’s going to get popular like every deck cozy goes over

[@adn2601]

Just got to infinite yesterday with this deck even with nerfed up KP. I don't have SG so I replaced her with Scarlet Witch for location control. My only advice when piloting this deck is know when to hold priority and read lanes specially for last turn(where opponent will lilely Alioth, Knull, etc.) Another is SK can't affect ongoing cards and buffs from ongoing cards. Also this deck dies from turn 5 wave if you're not careful

[@ranggarazani9875]

i couldn't agree more when you say that shadow king is insane. i have been playing shadow king with the surfer shadow deck last season to hit infinite on ladder an gain infinite ticket on conquest. a little dissappointed on the buff cause it completely ruined my surfer shadow list deck (had to make huge adjustment) but yeah feels nice to see shadow king get the appreciation he deserves.

[@hi2036]

I'm looking forward to play Mobius in Sera Control soon. I think he is a perfect fit for what the deck wants to do.

[@HenryZhoupokemon]

Time to put Luke cage defensively into decks like it was evo season again

[@lfreddub2763]

I've found Shadow King doesn't work on ongoing cards like Devil Dino.

[@rainbowgiggle1120]

luv ur variants and splits.... they are amazing... where can we get some of these variants from...

[@JeremyHoffman]

Sera Control with no Killmonger, Enchantress, or Rogue! What a day. I guess Shadow King would undo your Nova buffs (unless Luke is in play)

[@gamesjunkie]

Dude, I hadn't even considered using Shadow King in Sera Control. And I have to tell you, it feels gooooood. Thanks for the science, Cozy🤘

[@2PieceandABiscuit]

Sera control was the first deck tjat got me infinite. Happy to see shadow king and like cage added into this build! Great stuff cozy!!!

[@ValestiWow]

Hey Cozy, I think at 18:47 you could have thought about Shang-Chi'ing the Collector since he was so close to 9 and it would not be unlikely that your opponent might raise his power. I like those Conquest games, keep it up!

[@coolshirtkid]

cozy just keeps getting better at making vids! keep up the great work

[@mattmullins8054]

love the work cozy i dont have pig or monkey, who would you put in place? thanks

[@plugindave]

Been running Shadow King with a Darkhawk/Ronan deck and it has made Loki so much easier to deal with. It's especially funny when they use Loki and steal your Shadow King, only to then try to use it on one of your ongoing cards only for it not to work because it doesn't work on Ongoings 😅 It's pretty fun watching Shadow King nerf the opponents board while Darkhawk/Ronan or Mystique stay at the same power

[@MagerBlutooth]

I never thought about Mysterio in Deep Space. Playing the real one there doesn’t create the illusions.

[@ByrnedOut]

Man you've got me so torn here! I want to get Hit monkey from the spotlight, I pulled Alioth on my first go but I already have Snowguard so I'm at a 1 in 3. Now I want to play this deck and can't decide!

[@henrychurch7362]

I pushed for infinite for the first time this season, and was fairly easy until the 90s, I'm playing destroy. But it seems like into the 90s is where people start to spend and so everyone has loki, alioth, etc etc, and anyone not playing loki has armour and draws them for turn 2, I hit 97 but quickly dropped to 93 and have hit a wall

[@brydee301]

I'm in the exact same position mate. Frustrating!!

3:14 Yeah but every cerebro deck even WITH Chavez doesn’t always draw ceb; so yeah sometimes it seems really bad to try stuff without her upping the draw possibles.

[@VinsmokeSanji-]

If you have luke cage down does that mean sk cant remove the power of you hit monkey kitty mysterio angela and bishop?

[@smallmetalowl3209]

I appreciate the irony of how, pre-nerf, Ham was a hard counter to any Sera deck, and now he’s part of one.

Cozy legend. Word of warning: Loki stole my SK and Luke Cage today, very feels bad. Ended up removing Luke 😢

[@mrmutantlarry]

I don't know if cozy read these comments, but I just started using the new marvel run app and one of the missions is called Rock and Hawks lol

[@figueroa1322]

does it make a difference running Ghost with Shadow King to ensure the turn 6 hit? Not sure if there's data on that

[@jinxerific]

America Chavez is good because your deck is an 11-card one... at turn 1, you have 4/11 compared to 4/12 cards to draw the specific card. So basically, there is a 36% vs. a 30% chance to get Sera at turn 1. If so, adding turns and drawing more cards will improve the odds. So, at the 5th turn, you have a 73% chance to have it by turn 5; at turn 6, the card is useless anyway, and America, even if drawn, certainly will not be played. If the deck depends on a combination of cards, I suggest adding Chavez for the long run. This allows them to not forfeit the match because of missing Sera. We are a Control deck... we control odds too.

[@toddkilber1971]

instead of spiderham would nebula work better or maybe armor?

[@Liisjak]

Wait I didn't know Luke protects also buffed cards...I thought it was just base power.

[@brandonsparks9747]

I have seen so much Alioth Galactus Wave I just think the meta is not great for this deck to be effective right now.

[@IvoHarrisIII]

Chavez effect needs to be changed to "Draw this card on the last turn of the game." Cause drawing her on turn 6, when there's a turn 7, is brutal.

​@@sasquatchthesquatch3357that's true you must draw Sera this is the Point from Lamby

Takes so much time and I keep noticing that I mis some cards for almost every deck now a days. Getting infinite has been tough this season.
