Avenging in Numbers.

PREMISE

A very classic and simple leadership deck. The game plan is to put out as many allies as possible on the playing field and use Strength In Numbers to draw cards. With a couple of support cards that will allow us to play more allies and pay less for them, you could end up drawing up to six cards! There have been turns where I was able to play all three Heroic Strikes at once with this trick!

HOW TO PLAY

For your opening hand, look for Super-Soldier Serum, Avengers Tower, or Team-Building Exercise to help pay for allies and other support cards throughout the game. It helps to also have some cheap allies to use the Living Legend ability on, or play your shield and use Shield Block to tank some early damage. After getting your economy cards, get The Triskelion, Avengers Tower, and Stinger on the field to allow more allies on the field. Then you can use Strength In Numbers to draw those cards and play your Heroic Strike, ready up Captain America and attack with Wonder Man with Mighty Avengers to close out the game.

CONSIDERATIONS

There are plenty of other AVENGER allies to swap in if you wish. The first ally to think about swapping out is White Tiger, if you're facing a villain without stage numbers. Putting a Team Training in place of a Rapid Response is a good counter against cards that deal AoE damage like Concussive Blast or Metal Shards so you don't lose all your allies at once. Mission Leader is also a great card to include, especially if you're playing multiplayer.
