I'm currently on a medical leave on my job due to a shoulder operation so right now I have lot of time for myself. Reading, watching tv series and movies, playing with my left hand Runeterrra and Mario Kart On Tour and since two weeks ago discovering Marvel Champions board game.
For any of you that are not familiar with that MC is a LCG* by Fantasy Flight for one player that also allows play with 3 other friends. You fight against a boss (and differents encounter modules that you can add to change the game) that also has his own deck. There are 4 differents aspects (and the basic set) that allows you to play 4 differnt playstyles for every hero. With the base game you can build your own deck but every time you buy a hero (15 euros/10 dollars each) you also have new cards for one aspect so you can adapt your playstyle as you want.
As I said the game is awesome playing with friends (enemy and sidequests escale with the number of players) but I'm currently playing alone and what a wonderful game is it. You can spend hours trying to find the best deck for each situation and, of course, each hero has its unique mechanic of play (for example, Iron Man should find in its decks differents tech parts of his armour in order to be more powerful, Dr. Strange has a side deck of 5 cards with differents invocations to play during the game, Antman goes bigger or smaller whenever he wants to play defensive or attack, etc...)
But let's leave appart this "I want to talk you about the messias" post. This game rely a lot in differents decks. You can play aggresive with BlackPanther, build a deck for playing counterattacks against the enemy, playing very deffensive or summoning allies at your side. It totally depens on your mood that day. On the web you can find different people trying decks from marvelcdb and watching guides and videoplays but... do you know any web like outofcards for that purpose? Something to see which cards you miss in your collection for having a good deck or guides to play against Hardcore Ultron, which are the new heroes or scenario packs to come, etc.... Maybe if some of you already know this game are agree with me that the community is real but exists under the radar. Reddit is a thing but sometimes it lacks on having a good base such as threads or too much disperse information. Is there any web like I desire somewhere? Could outofcards be the proper community for that?
Feel free to ask me :)
Here is a little breef video about Marvel Champions.
* LCG means Living Card Game. The concept is the same as a TCG with one major difference: the packs of cards are not randomized. When a player purchases a pack for a LCG, they know exactly what cards they'll be getting.
Zola the Gorgon seems a little too powerful, simply because if you get two of them you now get infinite gold minions, and you can keep getting the “Discover a 6th tier minion.
Looks like a slow start into the week... I'm sorry if I suggested a difficult theme again. I thought designing OP cards would be fun :(

Again, I hope you don't mind my own Demon Hunter card. Please tell me if you'd feel better if I went with something else. That said, what makes both our cards dangerous is the combo potential with Il'gynoth. While mine is somewhat limited because the cost of the Demons would still have to be paid, your card allows preparation via Weapons and is way cheaper. I do have to conceed that your card has much better flavor thanks to your great choice of its character. If we're lucky, Il'gynoth will get nerfed this week. Anduin is a nice and flavorful card as well. I do think it might end up too slow, though. Would it be possible to give him Taunt?
linkblade
Ooof, this is super hard to evaluate. The idea is certainly very strong, but I can understand grumymonk's reasoning that the card is too expensive. It reminds me of Luna's Pocket Galaxy that needed several attempts to find the right cost. I would advocate for making it cost 5.
Wailor
Very creative approach, super flavorful! I do like grumymonk's suggestion for the card text. Regarding the strength of the card, I'd compare it to Archbishop Benedictus. You're pretty much immune against fatigue which makes for great Control decks. I'd see this in Mill or Deathrattle builds, maybe Shuffle Rogue could also abuse it. Cool idea!
Nah, not your fault. The comps this season have consistently been getting a lower and lower turnout than the comps from the first two seasons. I'm not exactly sure why though
awesome. didn't have Rokara (for the moment, next to be crafted), I replaced it by Athletic Studies.
first run, 6-3 (lost vs shaman murlock, priest spell and priest spell, they both had the treasure that lower the cost of spell in hand when discover) despite I had Unlocked potential and disks of legend
I've been running a similar deck idea. I opened Plaguemaw the Rottingearly and was trying to make it work. He felt weak before but coming back with N'zoth is a big upside.
My version adds in Y'sharaaj to double up on the Moontouched Amulet and Dreaming Drake. It's fun to have otk DH give up because of all the armor!

I've seen two decks this morning that I'd like to try out. The first one is BloodMefist's Memes and Dreams deck of the week, Menagerie Taunt Druid. The second one is a Deletelock for Wild which therottedzombie posted on twitter. Here are the lists:
When I copied them to my collection, I noticed that I was short of Plaguemaw the Rotting, 1 Dirty Rat and 1 Barrens Scavenger, so I sadly deleted the Druid deck and decided to buy 5 Barrens packs to fish for the Scavenger because I knew I had almost all epics already. Lo and behold, out pops not only the wanted Barrens Scavenger, but also Plaguemaw! Thanks Yogg!
Super nice idea, thanks a lot! When N'zoth came out I toyed around with a Menagerie Deathrattle Hunter, but this looks way more solid. Also the new format of the article looks great to me. :)
Am I the only one finding the artificially cute characters annoying? I mean it is annoying enough that poros, poundermonkeys are a thing but now Riot has to diversify this kind of content further?
Yeah you can say it doesn't hurt anyone... but I don't mind any of these creatures dieng to the Reckoning

Quick Meta Report
I'd be pretty happy if that was the case I'm just going by mobalitics that places thresh Nasus at a conservative 51 percent win rate.
Now this is an average of players at all ranks, it's very possible the picture changes and aggro does worse as you get up to masters
