For the United System, hands down Superman, I got the gold promo and such a fun powerhouse charging headlong into henchmen to ignore their attacks and punch back instead. For Marvel Heroes: 1. Punisher, someone once math-ed out that he was the best attacker in the game, I totally agree. I always find him useful as damage is the big thing you need against 99% of villains and his cards are always helpful. Also fun to make rocket sounds as I blast enemies away. 2. Juggernaut, love that he is in the game as a hero now and he’s a ton of fun to play. Oddly his starting card is his worst card in the deck and super situational to use but the invulnerability and charging around bashing enemies is enjoyable. 3. Cable, great tech commander being able to help the heroes cycle their cards to get their stronger ones as well as pull off some massive turns at the expense of a card and then recover later on. Excellent leader piece. 4. Cyclops First Class, I enjoy both the cyclops characters but this version feels stronger with his powerful Optic Blasts wiping out whole locations. 5. Deadpool, so much fun with his random shenanigans and I love the Deadpool Chaos deck so nice to have more of it here. My favourite of the healing characters too as I find drawing cards is better than ignoring damage so you can utilize locations. 6. Nightcrawler, an absolute joy to play teleporting around the board and always being where you need to be. Fantastic character. 7. Dr. Doom, arguably the strongest character in the game especially when combined with season 1 characters and makes him have huge turns of fun. 8. Old Man Logan, my favorite of the Wolverines in this game and neat to be playing a mini side game of trying to draw through your deck to have a huge end game with a potential 10 attack tokens clearing out all but the strongest enemies. 9. Silver Surfer, super cool theme and his specials are out of this world fun, unique and strong. Also I always summon Stark Labs hahaha. 10. Pheonix, love the concept of this character and how powerful and unique she is! Villains: 1. Brood Queen, a super fun straight up bug hunt 2. Sentinels/Nimrod, epic battle and so unique. 3. Quicksilver/Scarlet Witch, awesome thematic tag team 4. Juggernaut, the random directions and durability really makes this into the most fun single villain boss fight. 5. Dark Phoenix, crazy location destroying battle that flips attacking on its head. 6. Sinister 6, epic and challenging multi villain battle with so many cool effects going off. 7. Red Skull, he’s classic for a reason and still the most chosen villain by my kids, also I love all the villains that utilize the tracker cube. 8. Phoenix 5, awesome gauntlet challenge! 9. Spiral, fairly easy but such a cool design and wish we had more villains that changed up the standard missions. 10. Deadpool, another villain that shakes things up by not being able to be defeated and I enjoy his beat your score challenge.
I was able to find the core set, Dr strange and the spider verse box for a total of 10 dollars around Christmas last year 😮. I don't think I have the time or Money to get much more, but I was considering the original X-Men box because of the sheer amount of villains/heroes. Would that be a good call to go for next with my limited collection?
Great list. My faves have been Magik, Blink, Phoenix and Doctor Doom. Doom is not a team player but Doom has no need for teams lol. Had some great games with Yondu and Adam Warlock together too.
I know I'm late but great list! I just happened to play Dr. Strange yesterday for the first time against Red Skull and Ultron in Commander Solo. Never looked at his deck before I played, but since I had painted the figure I wanted to give it a go. He is very powerful as in both games on normal difficulty I never took a single point of damage. I've only played about 5 games of Marvel United in total, mostly core set stuff. I missed the first two Kickstarters but joined in for the Multiverse and bought the promo boxes to try and catch up.
Great list! This is one of my favorite games too! Favorite villains are probably Thanos, Kingpin, Dr Doom, Hela, Superskrull and Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch. Favorite heroes are probably Spider-Man, Dr Strange, Antman, Shehulk and Storm.
now to add MU Multiverse in the list soon lols Also suggestion for the future, having separate video for villain and hero would be nice, to reduce the time, and to have high views on each video "maybe?"
I am new to the game and have not played yet. My order of the base set and one expansion just arrived. I want to say though this game seems to operate a lot like Sentinels of the Multiverse (the card game, not the board game). I advise people to check that out if you like this game.
I have to disagree with you on Dark Phoenix. She is one of my absolute favorite ones to play against and I love how she has so many unique ways that she alters the game state. I've played 4 games against her and won 3 of them. I always have a blast playing her.
My top 5 heroes 5. Nightcrawler 4. Gambit 3. Phoenix 2. X-23 1. Strong Guy Top 5 villians. 5. Arcade 4. Mr sinister 3. Mojo 2. Sabertooth 1. Legion. I don't have most of season 1. Just the core and spiderman box. But i have most of the season 2 stuff
Hi, Silver Surfer is pretty far out of the top 5. However, he is very good mostly because of the Location swap making him specifically great against specifics harder Villains. Dr.Strange is far out of the top 5, even the top 10. He's more of a mid or upper mid hero. The top character in the game is Dr.Doom.
