Howdy! I would like to start by saying if you would like to see me playing this deck at Infinite rank, you can stop by my stream at https://www.twitch.tv/jhut99. It would truly mean the world to me as I am trying to hit 300 followers (currently at 222) to take this to the next level and start creating YouTube content. Enough with all of the boring stuff lets talk about how this deck got me infinite on day one of Days of Future Past Season.
I made this deck to counter all of the Shuri and Thanos running around in the meta currently.
Darkhawk- Counters Thanos (I like to check the opponents deck to see if they are running Thanos. If they are I like to snap if I have Darkhawk in hand)
Valkyrie- Super underrated card especially now to deal with all of those pesky Shuri Redskull Decks
Overall Strategy:
Turn 1– Bast – Korg – Hood. I prefer Bast depending on the value I’m getting
Turn 2– Zabu > Daredevil. Both are great options though!
Turn 3– Mister Fantastic (or black widow depends who you prefer in the deck) – Rock Slide > DarkHawk. Mister Fantastic is absolutely clutch when paired with Valkyrie. Ideally you play Mister Fantastic in the middle lane followed by turn 6 Valk on either the left or right lane to surprise your opponent and get the 8 cubes. I prefer Rockslide over DarkHawk here to have a better chance of my opponent Drawing a rock.
Turn 4/Turn 5– Turn 4 and 5 are why this deck is sooooo nasty. To sum it up, Rescue followed by Spider-Man to win a lane and Valk the last remaining lane is my favorite combo. DarkHawk pairs with Valk perfectly as well.
Turn 6– Ideally I am playing Valk to secure a lain while winning another lain with DarkHawk, Spider-Man/Rescue combo.
Notable Combos:
Valk and Hood- On turn 6 playing 5 cost valk on a lane followed by a 1 cost 6 power demon is absolutely busted and basically wins a lane no problem
Mister Fantastic and Valk- I figured I would go a little bit more in detail with this combo as I dont see many people talking about it. Mister fantastic will bump a lane up by two so if you and your opponent both have four cards in a lane and you played your valk you would win by 2 due to Mister Fantics Ongoing ability.
This deck has massive potential in the current meta and doesn’t seem to be going anywhere as I specifically chose cards that will most likely not be recieiving any nerfs in the near future!
As usual I would love to answer any questions on replacement cards (There are plenty of them) either in the comments or live on twitch!
Now go take advantage of this awesome deck and climb to your personal best!!
