Jubilee with Blink can be a good addition to that deck.

[@Giovanni-ew6sj]

but probably if Jubilee brought Blink, she would exchange the letter before Jubilee, not herself

[@jeremycarpentier5696]

The point is to play jubilee on turn 4 and blink in turn 5​@@Giovanni-ew6sj

[@tiimhotep]

@@Giovanni-ew6sji don't think so since jubilee would be the last card played still

[@dmussoff]

​@@tiimhotepjubilee doesn't count as the last card played until the ability of the card she pulled resolves. Found this out the hard way during a match...

[@stratus42]

Drewberry: Nocturne isn't very exciting My Brain: Changing the location isn't a one time thing, time for mayhem with Iron Fist and Doctor Strange

[@GendoRokabundi]

Good catch on that wording

[@kucinghoren7864]

Yeah, he should give her 3 star. It can make chaos. Iron first then Nocturne, ghost spider, doctor strange, cloak, and last heimdall.

[@neocharuzofiction3483]

A card that can change Knowhere

[@HeroDarkStorn]

Imagine playing her into Limbo, opponent thinking you cannot change Limbo because she cannot move in, but then you move her out and back with Heimdall or another way :)

[@gizel4376]

nice catch!

[@wonderman149]

Nocturn for cerebro 5 seems good. I feel that location change in cerebro is always a plus

[@ninobullich4066]

100%

[@MrGhostTheBigRoast]

at this point i just dont even want to make fun of -cube donors- cerebro players

[@JamestheKilljoy]

3 videos in a day. Drew putting in some OT! Blink absolutely will be nerfed before we get her. Still, the ability is cool. Hopefully that stays intact. Nocturne is so awesome! You are absolutely off base on that. In particular, im excited to use it in Cerebro 5

[@Drewberry_Gaming]

Haha thanks James!! 👊 put in the grind today but now I’m tapped out 🤣 I agree with Blink, likely won’t stay the same by the next patch

[@Crisis_Avertd]

Actually, Blink will be nerfed AFTER we all spend resources to get it 🤡 😂

[@ernesto8290]

Blink after electro sounds fire. Wow. Insta buy for me

[@Drewberry_Gaming]

WOW. That’s a sick combo

[@beardalmighty]

Turn 4: Shuri (or play Wasp first Turn 5) Turn 5: Blink Turn 6: Grandmaster + 4 cost

[@kayannpatrick3227]

What would that do? Swap blink?

[@shelby142]

​@@kayannpatrick3227 If you played Grandmaster first, yes, it should swap Blink. You could play the 4-cost first, though.

[@karma121983]

Grandmaster on blink seems pretty awesome

[@prman9984]

For us old people, Sasquatch was a member of Alpha Flight.

[@xNirex44]

Damn, guess I'm old 😅

[@QuinnOConnor]

Old guy here, looks so much better white than orange, glad they changed that, lol

[@LeoChaseTheMythMaster]

Looks a lot like Wendigo to me. Both are Canadian. Might be connected.

[@QuinnOConnor]

@@LeoChaseTheMythMaster it does, you're right. I'm not current on Alpha Flight(I should be, I thought they were great when I was younger). I have Marvel Unlimited so I'm gonna see what the hell's going on with it all

[@michaelfoley7577]

This is a different Sasquatch if it's Exiles. Heather Hudson instead of Walter Langkowski.

[@rafayetrasti6191]

I feel like Nocturne is like a 3 star card. She's actually pretty solid I reckon.

[@kvoltti]

The nice thing is you get to pull the trigger, Build her in a Magik deck and force your opponent to decide if they want to play for 7 turns or not.

[@neocharuzofiction3483]

She can change Knowhere

[@sullysosavage365]

That Flaviano Blink variant is freaking GOD-TIER omfg 🤯

[@skorie6180]

Sasquatch is reminding me of all the theory crafting about Firestar, having the big Hit Monkey turn be 5 for a turn 6 extra pop off. I wonder in what state over at SD Firestar is in atm

[@jimmybiscuit]

I'm so glad Nocturne is coming to the game, she's underrated

[@SeaBassInWater-oi3lt]

She seems like a real cool character!

[@helixtower5817]

May be a dumb opinion but I think Sasquatch should be a 7 cost. The requirement to make him cost 3 or less is really easy to fulfill and it can be protected as easily. It would also be cool to see another card that costs more that 6

[@LuckySinner]

Sasquatch will be crazy with hit monkey

[@JamestheXennial]

Oh, hell yeah. Black Swan T4; flood the board T5 with Hit-Monkey; Sasquatch and another high-cost card T6.

[@LuckySinner]

@@JamestheXennial exactly 👍

[@tylerwilson6484]

No series 4 releases once again, gotta love how accessible they are making all the new cards... not

[@itsfinel2p]

InkPulp said on Twitter that the Living Tribunal variant is his. Looks amazing, I can't wait. He said it was his first painted variant as well, I believe.

[@Drewberry_Gaming]

Yeah I saw that too!!! My bad, it looked like a flaviano variant. But I love inkpulps work and this one is stellar!

[@itsfinel2p]

@@Drewberry_GamingI completely agree. I wouldn't have known it was his without his tweet saying so.

[@skorpionex87]

Nocturne is daughter of Nightcrawler and Scarlet Witch, so she has both effect combined. I love the flavour.😃

[@Lzyaznkid]

I hope the missing datamine card is Firestar! Been waiting for that card.

[@xNirex44]

Same.

[@danieelmanso]

Nocturne is Nighcrawler and Scarlet Witch combined. The effect AND the statline. This is intense flavor.

[@kucinghoren7864]

She is Technically their daughter

[@danieelmanso]

@@kucinghoren7864 yeah he said this in the video

[@garyprime6983]

Grandmaster with Blink would be crazy if you just blinked another card before

[@lenzzx6663]

I aee namora in the HOPE SUMMERS-MOVE DECK. Vision, nighttcrawler, jeff can stay in a location just to get that 5+ boos then move

[@Axeloy]

namora not being ongoing is very interesting! seems like she has uses to apply that buff to any card and then you can play more afterwards

[@karma121983]

That black knight spotlight variant and ink pulp tribunal are 🔥

[@joeyfantana2724]

That Domino emote is a necessity! The only one I'd ever use. Base art again is subpar and I feel for Mello who now seems to be the sole base card artist and must be under a very aggressive schedule. Just doesn't seem like he gets the time to really give any of these the love they deserve.

[@Phantazmay]

Sage looks great. Ravonna and Zabu synergy too. Seems like something you want to play T5-6.

[@tylerswanson6358]

The cool thing about Nocturne is that you can change locations like sanctorum. how many times have you wished that you could scarlet witch/reality stone a location like that? Not meta-defining, but definitely useful at times Edit: not sure based on the wording if it changes the original location or the new location...

[@Brosephv]

Sage having the potential to be a 4/15 is pretty crazy. sas and blink seem next level busted tho

[@remyblas]

I think what'll make Namora special is that it's an on reveal buff, meaning that you're giving cards like Namor and Orka the buff they already get by being alone but then you can play other cards in the next turn, meaning you'll still get a 11-power Namor or a 16-power Orka that won't lose power when you play something else in their locations. And you don't even need to play Atlantis-themed cards, I can think of plenty of synergies Any 5-power card affected by Namora will discount Skaar by 2 the next turn, for example.

[@FiestaTX17]

So pumped for Namora to synergize with my boy Orka

[@taco6n13]

I've always wished the Atlantians work like the Wakandans, in the sense of that they're all supposed to buff Black Panther, the Atlantians buffed Namor. Namora is a good start to that and I hope they rework Attuma and maybe Orka by the time she releases. That said I'm probably coping hard.

[@invernofuyu2542]

Blink + Shuri looks rly nice with only one 6 cost and no other 5 cost. Nocturne is cool but you move her to a closed location, you'll be opening the location to your opponent. Sage looks cool. Namora looks rly fun! Sasquatch looks strong. The last card is maybe an Eternal? (Angelina Jolie 😭)

[@exiledcrashnburn2033]

@Drewberry The best way to describe the Exiles is X-Men meets Quantum Leap meets Sliders (if you know your classic scifi tv shows) Also, btw, just FYI the Sasquatch from the Exiles team is a she. The 616 universe is a he but the Exiles all come from different universes across the multiverse. I bet that last card is Mimic. He's the only OG Exile that's not in the game after this patch comes out.

[@Polidood]

An interesting deck with Namora would be with Hope Summers, Nimrod, Attuma, Armor and Destroyer! Destroyer being in its own lane would be 21 power, insane!

[@MrGhostTheBigRoast]

i swear more and more variants are making me want to spend/save my caches. jfc that legion and the tribunal and the selene just made me rock hard.

[@John-de2go]

I'm so relieved there are still data mines. Considering how expensive the game can get, it feels even more predatory when you go into a month blindly.

[@thedopestbody]

Blink’s best synergy might just be Jubilee, you already cheat out something big with Jubilee, then send her back for a 5/6 drop with Blink. I like Nocturne, it occupies that Spider-Man space in tempo move packages, but you do get to control the move and when you want to move. Probably not essential, but still good. Sage looks too awkward to me. Why would I put in so much work for unique power values AND rely on my opponent’s plays when I can just play Cull Obsidian that only requires I have a 1-drop? Namora is the card I’m most excited for. A curve of Ms. Marvel/Namora/Dr. Doom adds 14-15 power to each location, which seems really good to me. Sasquatch seems evidently good for both bounce and Skaar synergies, not much to add there.

[@alexkarassavidis3023]

I love the location control with move synergy. Should be cool to try out.

[@Shax22132]

Thanks for the video and the deck.

[@dark9ightff775]

Namora with goblins, attuma, namor,orca, and hulk buster

[@johnberry5296]

I love Blink! You should pick up the original run of The Exiles it’s wacky. Also this season looks terrible other than Blink….

[@justinevans2118]

I can see Blink getting nerfed down to a 1 like jubilee. This a terrifying ability that will change everything.

[@efrainlopez3782]

Love Exiles. It's what got me into comics back in the day. I'll be getting every card regardless of abilities lol

[@cazzyjunk7585]

Thanks Drew

[@An.Unsought.Thought]

Mobius M Mobius stocks are going to keep going up I guess... Definitely pulling the trigger on him with my tokens when I can. I must admit I am surprised at how many She-Hulk-esque cost reduction cards keep coming out. Mocking Bird and next month Sasquatch...

[@patrickm1533]

Would be sick if Nocturne let you plat at a location, move, and copy the original location to the new location.

[@rolfjt5526]

May looks like the month of saving up.. which is actually fine by me, ngl.. Wong Namora looks fun though..

[@samuelkinnunen828]

Also drewberry thanks for being great and getting us the cool stuff right away

[@cagwilliams]

Sasquatch is gonna slot straight into my Tempo Skaar deck :D

[@An.Unsought.Thought]

Man I am super intrigued and in agreement with you about the Atlantis style decks. My only worry is I don't know if it will ever be viable because they seem to be themed around one card per lane. Great for one location but I dunno about more than that. Maybe if you have Caiera you can protect your Orka. Armor and Cosmo can protect Attuma and Namora. Prof X is always a favorite for certain things. Yeah I'm definitely going to snap on Namora.

[@shikniwho7215]

unless enemy just casually flop down a goblin on your lane and there go Namora's effect

[@JamestheKilljoy]

I need that Miss Minutes emote for when my opponent is roping (stretching out the game clock)

[@xNirex44]

Happy to see you bucko 😁

[@shikniwho7215]

Nocturne could be a counter to Storm i guess, just flop her down to one location and if enemy storm in another spot, just jump there and denied her. Namora could be fun but of course with people using Goblin's deck or Annihilus deck so i doubt Namora gonna help much

[@maverick0023_]

The best part of patch day

[@Danothyus1]

The problem with nocturne is that she can't do what i think is one of the saving graces of nightcrawler: sliding into a unplayable location and winning for free that place because the opponent can't get there. Sasquatch looks scary. one cost card turn 1 mysterio turn 2 sasquatch turn 3 cull obsidian turn 4 Skaar+3 cost turn 5.

[@adamdufty2536]

I'm kinda curious to know how Blink will interact with cards like Green Goblin. Will it replace something on your opponent's side?

[@dirge51]

Thanks man

[@BatDad-qu4fo]

Almost all those spotlight variants are fire. That Sabertooth one might make me put him back in my Destroy deck....

[@PenitusVox]

Jubilee with Blink would be nuts. Only problem is that if you don't have anything more than 4 left, I imagine it wouldn't do anything. But I guess that's just on you to decide to use it or not.

[@SonOfSassy]

Nocturne will be amazing in Elsa move decks. Don’t sleep on her. Since the update Elsa is performing amazing. Hope Summers and Elsa are a great combo. Add Kraven Kitty Angela nightcrawler Jeff Vision Magneto to name a few. Then add afew shock value cards I use Iron man and Alioth in my deck. Juggernaut is a great fit against mirror decks

[@eagleotto2527]

Only interested in Sage and Blink, which is great cause I usually can have 4 keys ready once a season.

[@schlippeygames2484]

Bro I just watched this twice I’m so hyped

[@Drewberry_Gaming]

Hahah let’s goooo!!! 👊🔥

[@justinkingsman8158]

At a glance, Sage looks weak. However, she will be surprisingly strong, potential to be the Darkhawk replacement in right deck. i.e., Ravonna, Goblin style decks with Wolfsbane Grandmaster, Zabu, Absorbingman etc etc. Blink is Awesome with Hope and Wasp + move, vision, jeff stuff or Cloak & Dagger has potential too. Sasquatch with Blackswan, "bouncy" Mockingbird stuff could be a real. Nocturne is a decent card nothing crazy but playable in Move, Surfer and Cerebro 5.

[@skorie6180]

I think Nocturne is being hurt by how expensive cards are. If she was being put in series 3, I think a lot of fun could be done with her, but to get her here, it's so many resources for a niche already kinda filled by existing series 3 cards for where she'd naturally fit, like any move or C5 deck

[@AstroTunesMusic]

Think I'll go for Blink and Sasquatch.

[@penguwave4025]

Very nice. A month to save caches up

[@GorbombZombay]

Ha now I gotta go for Jeff in April & try n get get Namora for the sea deck toss in some man-thing wonder what else fits the theme 😂

[@andrewtheguy6190]

Namora seems really cool actually, it’ll be fun to experiment with her Edit: Sasquatch seems kinda broken lol

[@lolwtfbbq111]

Sasquatch is going to be crazy in my bishop bounce.

[@batmanwins5701]

I could see nocturn replacing vision in a lot of lists. The lower cost and higher utility offsets the 3 power you lose in a lot of situations. Its nice that namora gives the atlantean characters some semblance of synergy. If she is ongoing she might lead to an ongoing atlantis deck of some sort? Omega red? Idk.

[@pheckeht]

Damn I liked old Blink ability so much fuck move needed it so badly.... damn it man.

[@kaazma]

5:27 if you move Nocturne to a flooded location... she'll get rid of it, right? So that's not really a synergy with Storm and more of a counterplay against her

[@liamwhite1719]

i do wish they'd kept Blink's og ability. it had a nice flavor with the teleporter set of heroes

[@Ridgester13]

Electro into blink will be heavily present

[@robhou5353]

Drew! The Sasquatch is Canadian. He had a memorable fight with the Hulk. The Banner / Langkowski science work is the key. Aurora Borealis radiation is Sasquatch.

[@Drewberry_Gaming]

😮🤯 no way! That’s awesome, I like Sasquatch so much more now haha

[@Ayoo_Cam]

Finally a decent card for Jean Grey with Sage coming out. Mind is churning

[@DarthJF]

Sasquatch might help Zoo decks get some of that much needed vertical power.

[@batmanwins5701]

Odin seems like he is going to pair well with blink and sage. Maybe not in tandem though

[@RandomSwitchGamer]

I don't know too much about Wasp in Blink...cause it still gambles a 1 cost card in your deck (if there be)...I might like Blink in my Hela Crovius deck since its really 2 3-costs a 4 cost and the rest are 5s and 6s...this makes it more guaranteed to hit higher cost cards... Nocturne could also be decent in Cerebro 5 to replace locations that hinder the deck... Sage in Mr. Negative is where I also would put her, the deck has so many various powers, this at a 4 (after the Negative flip) would be insane...and after Zola, Sage could be pretty scary I think Namora isn't too bad, since she doens't need to be alone in her location...so you could splash her in decks like Onslaught or Tribunal...and just stack a lane with Omega Red, Iron Man, Onslaught...if you can reduce their cost, or get to turn 7 and drop Namora, that could be fun...She also could buff herself I believe, if you play her in a lane by herself Squatch looks fun...the main issue I think is finding a place in the 12 cards for him...yes its 12 power...but a lot of the time I'm getting cards like Pryde, Angela, Bishop, Hit Monkey or Werewolf even bigger...so is there a place for Squatch in bounce? maybe not...but maybe just in the Hope/Angela Kitty Pryde deck

[@tanaychouhan4048]

Turn 6 Blink+Um’Baku is gonna be meta and I’m here for it.

[@spincut13]

7:41 Oy, cerebro deck players are gonna love facing off against Sage 😅🤓

[@Arakn1dz]

These artists do not miss

[@davetorres8529]

I wonder if nocturne will change the location it starts at or ends at

[@Bingo.0401]

Iron lad-Howard, crystal, Odin-Blink, Magik, Adam Warlock, put all of these in your deck and you will always pull off you ridiculous combos. Also, how would blink interact with Odin or if a 6 cost was played before it, or if there are no cards with higher costs left, does it just pull the most expensive card left?

[@BatDad-qu4fo]

I at least really like the uniqueness of Sage's power. Probably wouldn't hurt to be a 4/2 since you more than likely only going to get her to a 4/9 in most cases, which isn't bad but isn't great either. Sasquatch, Mysterio, and Mockingbird will make a nice little trio.

[@Crisis_Avertd]

I think only the Legion & Tribunal spotlight variants are worth my keys 🔑

[@berrysaimon6387]

For a moment I thought they could add Mettle, Hazmat Bf

[@lordquastheonly]

Shaw and skarr can sync well with namora

[@ctopd6621]

It's not just Exiles. She's largely present within Age of Apocalpyse.

[@iamironmansnap]

some guy told me that blink swaps out cards with higher cost that the swap. so wasp would swap for anything, but smth like iron man would swap for a 6 cost

[@Axeloy]

im hype for nocturne

[@mengsRS]

Sasquatch on a bounce deck is insane

[@bananabread4338]

I will save my keys for that Legion variant

[@dajabec]

Gotta have hulkbuster in that namora deck

[@Phantazmay]

Namora seems fun and fair. Especially because it's a On Reveal instead of Ongoing.

[@mrdanielleake]

Nocturne turns off storm kinda cool I think

[@CabbageCage]

You should add Venom to your Atlantian deck to counter goblins.

[@coleeg69]

Gotta play seilcia or however you spell her name to protect your 6 drop/Orka

[@prestonphillips473]

Squirle Girl/Mysterio turn 3 gives you a free Sas for turn 4 or SG on turn 2 with another one drop. It'll be a good addition for Patriot decks. Also don't know if this is susposed to be Wendigo, or Sasquatch from Alpha Flight and they colored him white? Or is he now white and not brown for some reason?

[@ken_le_feignant]

Actually it would only reduce it to 2 since squirrels don't count bc they're added not played. Same reason they don't work Elsa unlike Mysterio.

[@prestonphillips473]

@@ken_le_feignant oooooh yeah you're right. They're not being "played" are they. So same way a squirrel wouldn't get pulled by Aero, but a Mysterio illusion would because it would be the last card "played."

[@SideDuck97]

Blink is a fantastic ramp card to synergize with Electro! Just cheat out even more 6 costs!

[@futark90]

Wait a second. if you move Nocrurne a second time with Ghost spider or Haimdal, will she change the location for a second time?
