Fairly straightforward concept here. The core, synergistic components:
- Groot heals when he defends. This keeps Rocket alive since he's rather squishy. We're going to make sure Groot stays around with ...
- Ops Room, which will keep Groot healthy and remove threat. If we need a little extra juice, we can use ...
- Energy Shield, which we can dump bountiful energy resources into in a pinch, but also serves as Tinkering fuel.
- Shake it Off helps Groot take a breather with a Tough status.
- Hangar Bay helps Groot block more than once a villain phase, which can actually be a source of net healing when defending against a minion.
- Repurpose helps turn Rocket's armory into game closing burst damage.
There are secondary targets for the package, including Charlie-27. Martyr has a fun little loop with Hangar Bay if she has minion targets - kill a minion, toughen up, defend, ready with Hangar Bay to be prepared to attack again.
Starhawk and Spider-Byte are pure value. The Starhawk+Knowhere loop is a handy option that can smooth your output in a lot of situations. Med Team gives us some insurance on Groot's life total. Superpower Training is for whatever upgrade makes the most sense - generally Particle Cannon, Cybernetic Skeleton or Thruster Boots.
Hope you enjoy! I've found this the most entertaining combination of the "ally block" package, and I hope we see these cards get more support in the future.

Jul 14, 2025Cool combo with shake it off and the ally! |
Jul 14, 2025That Groot + Shake it Off + Hangar Bay combo is chef’s kiss…we spent a lot of time on that during the Groot episode because it’s so much fun!! Ops Room is a solid new addition to the classic Rocket Repurpose deck. Nice!! |
Jul 15, 2025I love this deck. and that great use of Spider-Byte in protection for heroes that have tech. I know you already have 41 cards but Leo Fitz was so helpful to always pull out an extra card when you are in Alter-ego. I combo the the discard tech card plus Leo and I'd have 9 cards heading in to hero mode. |

Jul 15, 2025Yeah, do that. I know that you got Groot to protect, but I'm always going AE for Rocket. I also usually include Soaring Acrobatics for Rocket since he will get that extra +1 in thwart or Attack, once you make him Aerial. |
Jul 15, 2025I personally don't love too many conditional set up cards and this deck already has multiple, but try Soaring and let me know how it goes. :) |
Jul 15, 2025Awesome deck! I love how thematic it is with Groot. |
Jul 15, 2025Thanks, |
Jul 15, 2025This looks very fun! I stumbled onto that Ops Room / Groot combo in a recent Nightcrawler ally deck. While he was the focus, Groot was also incredible in it. I do love your thematics here though as well. Can't wait to try it out. |

Jul 15, 2025Fun deck! There has been a lot of chatter on some of the Discord channels recently about using him with Ops Room, and this deck looks pretty good! Have you considered a copy or two of Pinned Down to get Groot an extra heal after using Hanger Bay? |

Love Rocket and I've been meaning to try the Groot ally with Ops room. This looks really awesome!
