The next to last sentence is what I find impractical. Why wouldn't you put locations in your deck to make use of your MC's abilities? I mean if all you want is a vanilla body with decent stats then sure, go for it. I'd rather have a decent-size character with abilities I can actually use. If the ability is powerful enough to warrant it then I don't see the harm in splashing for a second color. If I can use Star-Lord's second ability multiple times in one game, sure I'll toss in some red locations to make that happen. @OMB: I actually don't think the symbol on that PT is an energy symbol. I think it's the same symbol that's on Wolverine's first ability, the one that means you can use it on anybody's turn. I could be wrong and maybe it does cost 1 blue energy but it looks like the "any turn" symbol, same symbol that's also in its text box. Edited by plaid_warlock, Jun 30 2015, 03:55 AM.

@OMB Oh! I forgot that they said plot twists can't be played from the resource row anymore. This whole time I was under the assumption that plot twists still worked the old way. You're totally right. @plaid_warlock Remember that this is still VS System (kinda) and that there are other things to build your deck around outside of your main character's payment powers. Team stamped and legend cards should still be a thing, team strategies should still be a thing. Your main character isn't the end all be all of your deck. They're just your lose condition. That said, now that I remember that locations are the only live cards in your resource row (unless reservist comes back, which seems unlikely given how they write abilities now) it seems more practical than ever to toss in a healthy amount of locations to keep from sacrificing other cards. You seem to be totally right about that. Eesh, this redone resource system will take some getting used to. Edited by Psychotime, Jun 30 2015, 04:49 AM.

@plaid; Yeah, you are right. The combat symbol has 3 broken lines while the blue is a circle so it seems the plot twist is this game's version of reset but team stamped. |

As OMB mentioned about the mana flood/screw issue... drawing 2 cards per turn mitigates that a bit. Over the course of a 6 turn game, you will see almost 1/3 of your deck so even running 4 copies of 1 location could work. |

Not to mention you can draw even more with certain characters out. Maybe there will be a location search card since locations are more vital? |

Personally hoping for less search and more Genius characters (like my personal favorite Beast) to get the cards you need. |

We will probably see more themes that care about finding certain types of cards, like how Loki likes plot twists. |

And hopefully should help with the checklist and speculating what could fill those numbered slots. |

True. Between Emma and Beast alone X-men have a nice draw game going. Hopefully other teams get some love. Loki is amazing too but comes in late game. I just hope villains can stall enough to abuse him. |

You may be right. I just saw a weird symbol so I just assumed it was one of the Energy colors (especially because it seems like a bomb effect), but then again I also forgot that there will be a lot less flexability on when you can play things. |

They answered my question about Beast's ferocious ability. It very much IS an ability that will show up on other cards. It's just called Ferocious.
What does that mean for speedsters? What kind of ability will they get? Edited by Psychotime, Jul 1 2015, 02:45 PM.

My guess would be something similar to double strike or an ability where they attack as if they have flight and range and can't be stunned? Seems a little op to me but speedsters usually are. |

I know there are Vs 1.0 players who are secretly tracking all of this. Stop hiding and enjoy the previews!!! :) |
