I hope you aren't mad I'm making a topic in your thread.

2x Iron Fist, Secret Avenger(SA)
2x Dagger, SA
2x Echo, SA
2x Captain America, SA
1x Hawkeye, SA (Can probably take this out if you hit your 2 enough)
2x Punisher, SA (Tigra is a good replacement)
1x Cable, SA (2x Falcon instead)
1x Falcon, SA
2x Human Torch, SA
1x Storm, SA
1x Wolverine, SA (Can use She-Hulk or Black Panther x2 instead)
1x Spiderman, SA
1x Luke Cage, SA
1x Ares, MA (another luke cage works also)
1x Hercules, SA
1x Sentry, MA

2x Atlantis Attacks
2x Losing the argument
2x Avengers reassembled (Liberating number 42, but Avengers reassembled is sooooooo much better)
2x The Big Three

Maybe this list can be built better, I just took my 60 card version and redid it.

Parenthesis is more for Budget Builds.

Main tricks for Avengers reservist builds:
Human Torch off init in combination with Sentry, then use atlantis attacks to rally for sentry to give a character +8 attack. Using Losing the Argument or Avengers reassembled to set up successful rallies particularly to rally echo out. Some tricks

Hope you like the build

I'd lose the Losing the Arguments. Chances of a successful rally at his point are incredily high since most of the guys rally for a character card. I'd substitute in Above the Law instead as it digs through your deck faster.

I'd also take out Falcon and drop in Jessica Drew <> Spider-Woman, Secret Avenger.

Other than that, looks good.

Of course I don't mind! The whole idea is that everyone helps me make these decks. I was thinking of making both Avengers Reservist builds. MAV and MUN. With that in mind, would you mind retitling the thread to '100 Ideas: Secret Avengers'. I think that will clear up confusion as most people associate 'Avengers Reservist' with the MAV build.

Not that I'm necessarily suggesting it, but it's interesting that if you ran one of every 'secret avenger', you'd have a pretty decent curve. A little heavy at the two spot, but pretty balanced!

MUN-009 - C - Dagger, Secret Avenger
MUN-019 - C - Iron Fist, Secret Avenger

MUN-004 - C - Captain America, The Patriot * Secret Avenger
MUN-008 - U - Cloak, Secret Avenger
MUN-010 - R - Dr. Strange, Secret Avenger
MUN-011 - C - Echo <> Ronin, Secret Avenger
MUN-013 - U - Hawkeye <> Ronin, Secret Avenger
MUN-018 - U - Iron Fist <> Daredevil, Imposter * Secret Avenger

MUN-003 - R - Cable, Secret Avenger
MUN-012 - C - Falcon, Secret Avenger
MUN-020 - U - Jessica Drew <> Spider-Woman, Secret Avenger
MUN-024 - R - Punisher, Secret Avenger

MUN-016 - C - Human Torch, Secret Avenger
MUN-028 - C - Storm, Secret Avenger

MUN-002 - C - Black Panther, Secret Avenger
MUN-026 - R - Spider-Man, Secret Avenger
MUN-031 - R - Wolverine, Secret Avenger

MUN-017 - C - Invisible Woman, Secret Avenger
MUN-022 - U - Luke Cage, Secret Avenger

MUN-001 - R - Bill Foster <> Goliath, Secret Avenger
MUN-014 - C - Hercules, Secret Avenger

2x The Big Three
1x Pym Laboratories

Ravaged and Furious Assault really make me want to break the Universe rule!

How's this build Bliven? Did I change too much? I thought Pym Laboratories would be a good addtion for the recovery, ability to swing hidden, and resevist theme.

I also liked Uncle Chawie's suggestions. Jessica Drew seems really solid. If you're going to lose her anyway, you might as well slip her back into the row!

I like the build. The only thing is while Luke Cage's stats are nice, Ares double stun damage while on offense or defense can be a game breaker, but I guess the discard kind of sucks. It should work either way though honestly. I forgot that you don't use like ages. Pym laboratories is nice, but you also have wolverine on 5 to hit into the hidden area. I'd keep your build. I personally would never use Jessica Drew, but that's cause of my play style.

I wasn't really sure how to tackle the 'ages' thing. For the most part I keep decks in the ages they were intended merely by sticking to a theme. For instance, the first time Avengers got the Reservist theme, they were all about revealing them from the row, or replacing them. The Secret Avengers are all about rally effects.

By that logic I should not have included Pym Laboratories because it checks the row. I simply forgot that I already had Wolverine to hit the hidden area. If you can think of a better card to take that slot... let me know!

PS Thanks for changing the thread title! InsanityFTW will probably be posting the old-school avengers reservist shortly.

Avengers Manion and Call Down the Lightning are both staple cards in the 'other' Avengers Reservist deck (from MAV) which will be featured as one of the 100 decks. The goal is not to duplicate staple cards from one deck to the another unless they're necessary.

Both of those cards are fricken amazing though aren't they?!

yes they are avenger mansion because the face down avenger does not have to be reservist and hell call down the lightning is great either way you use it.
