Press, eh? Looks pretty straightforward with a couple of notes...

1) I don't like Ronan's cost-3 version, for the simple fact that it's highly unlikely he'll end up on his lonesome on your field. You've already got plenty of cost-3's aside from him, and in my playgroup it's common to go to turn 8, so I use Ronan-7 as my "finisher" at the end of a turn-8 Press-chain.
2) Because I do plan for late-game enders, I also have fewer cost-2's than you but also a couple more cost-4/5/6's.
3) Shatterax is your cost-5 guy. I have one each of Bron and Korath, but then at least as many Shatterax as them.
4) Because of the late-game possibilities in my group, Sentry 459 is a pretty good inclusion.
5) Since Nega-Bands are Unique, I can never bring myself to include more than 1 copy in the deck, though Ultimate Weapon is definitely good.

I don't care much for Lunatic Legion (the plot twist), nor Improper Burial, since my Press deck is very concerned with managing my characters on field and in hand at all times to maximize the Press chains. Instead of those I have space for Penal Colony and Remnant Fleet to pick up my field and re-recruit everyone (including characters that were stunned and I rescued from KO'ing). Though some part of that is due to the fact that I only ever owned one Stargate; having a full complement of those may make this redundant, but I still like them.

I like 6 as the kill turn and my Ronin at 4, even if he doesn't have press.

How do you spell relief, C.o.v.e.r. F.i.r.e.

This is the list I play:

4 Lockjaw, Inhuman's Best Friend
4 San, the Alienated One
4 Dr. Minerva, Starforce
3 Lieutenant Kona Lor, Lunatic Legion
2 Captain Att-Lass, Starforce
2 Colonel Yon-Rogg, Commander of the Helion
2 Commander Dylon Cir, Lunatic Legion
2 Mar-Vell<>Captain Marvel, Soldier of the Empire
2 Admiral Galen Kor, Lunatic Legion
1 Ronan the Accuser, Starforce
1 Ultimus, Starforce
1 Bron Char, Lunatic Legion
1 Shatterax, Starforce
1 Korath the Pursuer, Starforce

3 Hala
2 Stargate
2 Penal Colony
1 Soul World

4 Live Kree... or Die!
4 The Lunatic Legion
4 Cover Fire
4 Remnant Fleet
4 The Uni-Power

2 Universal Weapon

If I would change anything it would be 2 more Stargate's over the 2 Universal weapons. But I barely miss the Stargates ever with mulligan for Lockjaw/San/Stargate (10cards that net you stargate by turn 3).
Ending a presschain with a non-press character is always a good option and 4drop Ronin is great, turn 5 press out and finish with him and give him his weapon, is an awesome play :)

I don't really like Ronan's 3 either. He's really just in there because he has press. My goal is to keep as many characters on the field as possible. However, your right I should be able to at least drop the number of him in the deck because he's not someone I need to play.

Sentry is pretty good actually. I'm going to throw at least one of him in. I forgot Nega Bands was Unique.

I like Lunatic Legion to much. When you drop Shatterax and play Lunatic Legion on the same turn it's pretty much game over.
