Synch

4ER (effective resources) for a single stat boost and they exhaust... seems inefficient. Assuming 2 damage/threat per 1R is the desired baseline for value, then Synch hits that baseline on the 8th turn. I play 2 players, and games usually last 10-14 rounds. That means Synch would need to be in play in the first few turns of the game, and would be competing with essential set-up cards for my deck. I think this is binder fodder.

I a gree with the most; he needs too much times of continual usagement for such high base cost. The only really appealing part of this is that the bonus is flexible between ATK, THW, but also DEF and REC (last two are more rare and interesting) — matchet · 175
Havok

Havok has become a precision-guided missile thanks to Falcon’s signature top-deck scouting. Because you always know the next boost card, Havok can attack only when the boost icon count works in his favor. This gives him far more control, consistency, and survivability than in a normal deck.

Here’s the ideal line:

Attack twice when the boost card shows exactly 1 icon → 3 damage each time, taking 1 consequential each (2 total) which → leaves Havok at 1 HP.

Then wait until you see a boost card with 3 icons → unleash a final strike for 5 damage before he goes down.

This gives you 11 damage total with zero upgrades required. Well worth the price IMO.

Problems is the expensive expenditure of 5ER for a very conditional possibility. You require a teammate with Global Logistics or a Falcon (Hero). At the same time, he isnt aerial so Falcon cant get if going tribal — matchet · 175
U.S. Agent

U.S Agent on his own is very basic ally. Retaliate, 5 hit points, 1 ATK, 1THW. If FFG included him in core set, one no one see the difference. But this card got one problem: needs building. Maybe for the retaliate (Ready for Action is obvious choice), maybe adding more health (Reinforced Suit) or maybe to boost stats (example: Inspired, Power Gloves). Unfortunate there is a answer to all of this: every one of this three instances are more worth it to build with another allies.

Of course if you got the lucky, U.S. Agent can blocked 2 times (plus remove tough from the enemy) and got the value. But in 2025 where we have 10 waves of cards (and more to come) that beside thematical decks (or having many decks at one time) John Walker is not the sexiest choice.

Rating (A-C) B- Can be quite good, but need time and there is many better choices for voltron

Soaring Hearts

As Angel, I would almost always include this card. It is a little clunky that you have to be Angel, not Archangel to play this card,

Psylocke is required to be in your deck, as she is part of your signature kit. One she is in play, she is very easy to keep around for a long time due to her self-healing ability.

Soaring Hearts can be paid for by The Power of Flight, but if you pay for it with Avian Anatomy you will get to pick it back up into your hand immediately, in addition to drawing a card from the Angel of Life ability on your identity, so you will collect some resources that can be used to pay for whatever you select.

The downside is that you do have to pick something from your discard pile, not from your deck, so the utility may be limited if you draw this card early on.
