Just wanted to get some thoughts and opinions on this build. Not sure if any one ran with a build similar to this but I'm sure it's been done by someone at sometime. Anyway all feed back is welcome be it good or bad.

Characters

4 Longshot - Earth-Mojoverse
3 Professor X, Mutant Benefactor
3 Jean Grey, Teen Telepath
3 Cyclops-Slim
3 Wolverine, Logan
3 Cyclops - Man of Action
2 Cyclops, Fearless Leader
2 Jean Grey, Phoenix Rising
1 Wolverine - James Howlett
2 Cyclops - Astonishing X-Man
4 Wolverine, Bloodlust
1 Cyclops - Mutant Messiah
1 Jean Grey - The White Hot Room

Plot Twists

3 Optic Blast
3 Healing Factor
3 Fearless Leader
3 Concussive Force
2 Adamantium Claws
3 Berserker Rage
3 Overwhelming Force
2 Telepathic Suppression
4 Wolverine Squad
4 Divided We Stand - Team-Up

The idea of this desk is on turn one Have Wolverine squad, Divided we stand, and Long shot in my hand from the start. Getting rid of uniqueness ASAP. I've only play tested this once and it went really well, -31 to 26.

I have a couple of questions about your overall strategy for this deck.

Do you find that you need to team attack a lot with this deck? (use of Overwhelming Force)

This almost seems like a triple legend deck, because you have Jean Grey's and Telepathic Suppression. However, I don't see a spot them seems dedicated to her hitting the field. Are there consistency issues with this?

There's a mix of aggro and stall cards, and it seems like you lean more towards stall because you have drops going all the way up to 9. The deck might be served well to go one way or the other. Then, you can max out on cards like Concussive Force and Optic Blast.

It's an interesting deck, depicting the personality clash between Cyke and Wolvie. Very flavorful.

No, Like I stated I've play tested it once. Yes there were a few instances where I needed to team attack. Also, Fearless leader giving me the option to ready cyclops and use him again but for a team attack only.

Well I just figured it fit the theme of the deck (the love triangle). Also, her 2 drop allows me to draw if I don't have one of the three needed cards by that turn.

The first play test I ran with it went till turn 11, only because I didn't get my wolvie 7 drop until that turn. I've also toyed with adding cutting loose mainly for the flavor text. Which add to the clash as well and also giving them both +2 atk.
