How I Met Your Mother

How I Met Your Mother

"Kids, I'm going to tell you an incredible story..."

This video (March 14th) tells the incredible story of rescuing a CAPTIVE (is that how I met your mother???)

As I did with my Nick Fury Deck (Ezekiel 25:17) I borrow from two I.P.s which share a common actor - Cobie Smulders in this case who played Maria Hill in the MCU and Robin Scherbatsky in How I Met Your Mother.

Allies and Justice

Like Star-Lord, Maria makes all allies you play the same trait as her (obviously S.H.I.E.L.D. in this case), but I'm running almost all S.H.I.E.L.D. allies anyway. The only one who isn't is Ironheart, but I feel like that would be very different in any other aspect.

So why Justice then? Because of Global Logistics and Homeland Intervention! Threat should very rarely be a problem, and I'll get loads of free damage with Sky-Destroyer since I have six 0-cost S.H.I.E.L.D. events on top of all of my other S.H.I.E.L.D.-traited cards!

Turn 1

Unless I'm overflowing with resources or have NOTHING else I want in my opening hand, Maria's Alter-Ego Action will tutor Sky-Destroyer on turn one, then I'll see where I go from there!

No Chance Encounter?

Chance Encounter is one of my favorite Justice cards, but I prefer to run it when I have Side Scheme of my own to thwart so I'm not relying on villain Side Schemes.

I'd also like to run One Way or Another and Turn the Tide, but I'm focusing on S.H.I.E.L.D. to hopefully ensure Sky-Destroyer damage every turn (23 of 43 cards are S.H.I.E.L.D.), and always have S.H.I.E.L.D. cards available to exhaust for Global Logistics and Homeland Intervention

Out of Aspect

I wanted my out of aspect supports to be cheap(ish), so I went with the following:

• 3X Command Team
• The Triskelion
• The Circe (definitely not cheap, but worth it with the right allies)

Llllet's gets ready to Rumbllllllle"

Maria's Alter-Ego Action requires you to exhaust, so having a Ready to Rumble in play lets you ready when you flip up to Hero form!
