they only last for a few days... I think the pros of encouraging some new deck building out way the cons of those few days feeling pretty same-y. Maybe they should reduce the number of days they are featured for as a decent compromise? Or maybe there's a separate queue for ranked that doesn't have the feature location odds skewed.

Personally featured locations are great. Maybe you end up seeing the same or similar decks after a while but it's also different from the same meta hugging decks you usually see/go against so it's a bit of variety in opponents.

I think this was the point he was trying to make when he was talking about what he thought locations were going to be originally but I think because they stay for so long people basically play into it and it ends up being days of seeing X deck 50%+ of the time

I think featured locations are fun when they make off meta decks stronger, alter of death sucks because it makes already meta decks even more prominent

My only issue with featured location is that it feels like they all make the hood/Nova/carnage package good. Except lamentis -1 that just made death insane

He popped up in my shop yesterday and I thought of you. Glad to see your white whale didn't elude you for too long.

Congratulations on that card big man

The ultimate Leader counter: just don't play cards. I nearly choked on my drink I was laughing so hard, amazing

That second game felt so good oh my god

Maybe it's just my lower ranks, but I don't find featured locations are that much of an issue. I already tend to play one deck at a time for a couple days before swapping around, it just prompts me to change to a slightly altered one with cards that I don't put in otherwise.

18:30 I was really surprised by the tunnel vision on the right Sinister london... Wasn't splitting the power straight up better there?

This deck looks like a lot of fun.

Hey, does Electro keeps his +1 mana ability after you used Sauron?

"The ultimate Leader counter is just not playing any card". It's even more fun cause it's kinda true!

That galactus happened to me before 😂 I was so mad. I had the win and it was turn 4. So I had plays after it as well and whiffed so hard after snapping 🤣

good video, Ty!

I think you're totally right about locations. The games has a very diverse library of cards comprising many different strategies and for the most part those strategies are all viable. The game is balanced around locations not benefitting either player or strategy in-particular because they are random and vary greatly. When a certain location is featured it feels like it takes what is normally a very diverse game and then makes it very homogenous by greatly benefitting a certain strategy. Maybe they could award extra xp or some currency for the use of a certain featured card every once in a while or make a certain card avaliable to all players to try out for a bit. It might achieve a similar effect of players getting an addition incentive to expirement without having games that just feel like if you don't go all in on whatever is being pushed you will have a bad time.

I think it would also help if new locations weren't "featured" for two days. That's just too long to skew the environment that much imo. It also means that 3 days out of the week are on featured locations, or in other words almost literally half the time. I think it's a fun mechanic but they tend to overstay their welcome.

Remember when Regis ran a Shuri deck pretending it was a Sauron deck.

just got sauron in the shop, not gonna buy him because i’m saving for thanos but it’s super cool to see the new card when it comes out, glad it wasn’t shanna lol.

This looks like my kind of deck! I still need Red Skull and Sauron though…

I enjoy the featured locations for changing "the meta" but I agree that it wears out its welcome. Maybe limit it to just 24hrs

Actually Galactus works on both Altar of Death and Death's Domain if an additional card is present and is played before the Galactus since it gets destroyed. But anywhere else it stops Galactus' trigger.

I got Knull at 1200 today from a collector reserve!

In regards of the featured location, if it was only for a day it would be fine, but it overextended its welcome, furthermore considering we have hot location's sunday. I also find it extremely annoying for the same reason that after a couple hours I just want to play another deck but it would be not only inefficient it just discourages playing anything but the most efficient expecting that location to pop on any game. I've faced more self sacrificing decks in the last few days than anything else, or decks that were forced to play something like Storm, Rhino, or Armor to straight up block that location.

Twice when you did the She Hulk/Taskmaster play at the end, you chose to play the She Hulk in a lane that reduced her power, which meant that TM would copy the lower power. Is there a reason why you chose to do it like that instead of playing She Hulk in the lane that doesn't alter her power and copying that?

I partially disagree with you on the locations. They can be a hit or miss but this particular location has been the most fun I have had in the game since launch. I think it all comes down to play style and deck preference. Right now my favorite decks are Knull based and have been for the past few weeks so this elevates that experience for me. However it does suck for other decks. There have been many locations I don't enjoy but honestly it's not that bad.

They should make featured locations only for the weekends

8:25 “I don’t know why they’re different” Well, I’m here to explain although take it with a grain of salt because it’s more a hypothesis rather than fact. Maybe due to altar of death being a new location they made it with a different code than Death’s domain and not just copied and pasted it. But due to not doing that it, perhaps death’s domain reads a card that gets revealed there as “played” whereas death’s domain doesn’t. But, that’s just a small theory of mine so…idk

i added patriot to this deck since half of my deck isn’t gonna have abilities 😂

@RegisKillbin

Жыл бұрын

Vision and She-Hulk are good. Enchantress is not as good. There is no time to play a 4-cost with minimal upside, especially as a post-hoc effect when you need to be dumping power on turn 5 and 6. Sauron also already solves the same problems. If you had a Zabu list, Enchantress could perhaps be a consideration, but Zabu and Sauron clash in curve and effect. Vision's power flexibility after Shuri is an A+ play. She-Hulk lets you skip turn 5 for favorable priority into turn 6 to play her and a 5-cost card together.

I enjoy Featured Locations for the most part, but this one is just sooo impactful you have to play Altar meta or a counter to it to really succeed in it.

On the second game why your red skull didn't get destroyed is because you didn't play the card on the death domain. Also death domain and altar of death works the same except altar of death give +2 energy next turn (which is so much) hope they nerf the location soon enough

I feel like featured and hot locations are great but last too long. They should like, gradually make them happen less and less over the course of their featuring, or just make it so that once you see it three times you have the option to deactivate it and just be in a separate matchmaking pool in which you don't have the featured location

Sauron: He could cure cancer, but instead he makes Dinos P.s. a thought occured to me again when I was watching these games.. Cerebro Prime (7-5-3); Maximus, Ebony Maw, Vision, Wolfsbane, Gamora are all 7, and Taskmaster could very often be, too, 🤔 I would almost think about Silver Surfer, Mister Negative, and run the new buffed Nakia, to make your Doctor Doom 7, and if you got real lucky, a 7 power Blue Marvel. Even if not, he works well at each of the 7-5-3 breakpoints, bringing up Nakia, too. Maybe Magik and Onslaught?? 🧐

There's two types of hot locations to me. The ones that are cool without being too warping like Machineworld and the ones that completely warp the game around them like Altar of Death where its actively detrimental not to play one of the two decks that benefit most from it.

I like Featured Domains and I think Altar of Death is neat. Though, as context, I really only switched out one card from my Sentry deck (added Electro) so I wasn't really forced to switch decks. Also I'm in the 50's which isn't not competitive but also isn't high enough that you're only seeing the meta decks. I think that changes my experiences a bit. Also, as people mentioned, Altar and Death's Domain work the same other than Altar giving energy. Both kill everything that is played but doesn't destroy anything that is moved/added. I think that opponent just got confused and thought it was the location that destroys everything that moves there.

OK, but why does he want to turn people into dinosaurs?

My solution would be to make hot locations and new cards release on different days. Like releasing cards Thursday once the hot location is over.

40% of the time. You get it all the time.

A big reason for the variety are the locations. They bring so much fun and surprises to the game. Featured locations suck because they deny the surprise factor

I think venom could be decent as an additional "silence" effect

As long as armor is on board before Sauron it's still viable in this deck isn't it ?

Hot take, we NEED a competitive mode in this game that eliminates the featured location, we would of course still have a casual game mode with the featured locations but goddamn I'm so tired of essentially being forced into certain deck types that I don't have the best cards for when Rickety Fucking Bridge is the hot location. If your game has a mechanic that literally just makes me Not want to play at all then you Have something wrong with your game.
