Hey everyone! Please note that I think these decks are probably better WITHOUT GILGAMESH. These are a good starting point if you're looking to brew... but there's some unfinished work here, I don't think these lists are optimal yet. I need more time to refine the decks, so stay tuned to future videos!

It’s very frustrating how hard it is to get cards for F2P. Seems like every best deck anymore has multiple cards from the last month or so. And many are cards that seemed skippable at the time. Anyways great video as always Alex.

@AlexanderCoccia thanks for tje vid, legend! Also its "Theena" as the actual Greek pronunciationco of Athens (Athéena)
You can play her in a turn 2 havoc deck too with stuff like bast, angela and the 0 cost cards to play thena along side a 0 coster to buff her right away the rest is basicly just nico,hood,kitty,nebula,crawler and antman its kinda reliant on drawing either havoc or thena to play on turn 2 but it can push 2 lanes pretty highly if you manage to do so, im pretty sure there is room for improvement, but it really feels like there is some pretty good potential behind thena and an early havoc
So pumped finally got modok

Spent 2 keys and got grandmaster skin and tokens lol
It might be crazy but i want to do a less three drop centric surfer with Thena. Ive also been doing a Noki Dino deck with Thena and she feels really solid there
I made a deck like this, glad to know I’m not far off. Instead of dark hawk and his support cards I have grandmaster master mold baron and ronan. I’ll probably try this darkhawk idea out but I’ll bring along grandmaster for some extra pop
I built a Thena deck with Annihilus package( Anni, Sentry and Hood ) + Kitty Pakage( Kitty, Thena, Angela, Hope Summers and Elsa ) and some counters( Rogue, Cannonball, Shang-chi ) and Red Hulk as a finisher or bait. Super Strong
I'm over 2500 Collection Level and have a pretty good amount of hours in since I started playing 4 Seasons ago (this being my 5th). It is a little disheartening how little of these decks apply to me. It's an entirely different game at the level you and Cozy are playing and it feels soooper grindy trying to get where I can actually build bigboi decks. The only seeming consistent deck I've got to go to battle with is a Ironheart/Wong/W.Tiger/Odin deck. Just a moment to vent. Thanks for listening.
Anyone having issues with the free series 3 season card since the update? Howard the Duck was available as my free series 3 card to claim. I opened one collector cache and got Howard. Now it says I’ve claimed my free season pass card and to come back next season…but I’m not series 3 complete since the series drop (missing Silver Samurai and Martyr).

On one hand, I want to roll for Thena, but I only have two keys, and Phostos will come with Corvius Glave and Spiderham which I don't have. What do you guys think should I toss one key or should I just horde my keys to get three brand new cards when Phostos comes around?
She seems sort of like an auto include in Angela kitty decks. Could be useful in a mid-range bounce list? Not necessarily a 'must have' but probably an upgrade from some other card.

I used Thena with Thanos, it's running fine but still needs some tuning.
I use her in a move deck with werewolf by night. I hit infinite with that deck. Shadow king can only take thena, WWBN, dagger OR vulture. Playing 2 cards per turn works well with the deck.
mmm... time to bring out the shadow king deck again I guess XD
So I use stature packages every season to help me get infinite and I low key think thena might be a good way to help with power haven’t built deck yet but we cooking. Maybe since you got more cards you can cook something up low the videos thanks boss

Thena has been amazing in Angela / Kitty deck. So much so that this might be taking over this month's meta and if you don't run them, be prepared with Shang/SK against them.
Really want Thena, really don't want Grandmaster or another Modok variant. I'll make the decision over the weekend, but think id rather just shure up Arishem and Phastos
Nocturne is the new Echo. People either forget about her or lose track if she's already moved or not.
"No need for testicular fortitude" I'm dying over here. Alex you're too damn funny.
It's Angela in one lane, Thena in another and Havok in the third. 3x 2-cost each a monster of their own. I think Thena might be heading to a nerf. Probably 2/2 or 2/3; +2 each proc. Making her 2 power or above push her out of Ravonna range which could hold back on her effectiveness to play out another card alongside her.
I wonder how do they pay these new card spotlight variant artists, since nobody but the whales are getting them anyway...
I’m this vid isn’t abt Gilgermesh but what are your thoughts abt him? I feel like he’s slightly under powered, potentially having him as a 5/5 and being +2 I think could make him a much more viable card compared to right now.
Mam i skipped sage widow and cannonball 😢
Thena is pretty good. She usually gets over 10 power by herself. Feels really nice.
I havr a question, but does the game match you up with bots more often when theres a Event mission that asks us to make our opponents retreat?

Thena is the new angela at least for kitty decks.
Been trying her out. She's really not bad but sometimes you screw yourself over by trying to play just two cards because you want you buff her up. Still, I like cards like this that have specific triggers that can pay off. I like her, she looks cool so im forcing myself to play her a bit more and experiment.
They have to tweak havoc a bit given how strong thena is at 2 cost
Hear me out, switch out gilg for blink in the darkhawk deck. You get darkhawk almost always

Thena is very fun to play is not a broken card but is fun
I truly had no interest in Thena until I saw this vid. Talking about how good she is in Kitty/Angela decks while I’m loving one right now made me throw two caches on her and she’s been an absolute blast. Gotten her to double digits so many times.
