Lol thank god, I was like wait only one at a domain, that would make him so much harder lol, but I can already tell by what I heard that loki is gonna be my favorite character, my ranking for the core marvel set is 5. Hela 4. Killmonger. 3. Thanos 2. Taskmaster. And Ultron is my favorite, he's just the most creative in my mine
Verity Wells being in the game makes me want to cry. She’s such an important character to me and one that Marvel is almost certainly going to forget. This just became a must buy for me
I had an incredible play with Loki a few days ago. I was playing against taskmaster and there was an event in play that said all allies have -1 strength. My opponent had four allies in different locations, but didn't have the right strength. I made a deal with the player, if they moved to Viking Loki's location on the next turn, I would get rid of the event for them. They said yes and it gave me just enough mischief to play power of a god on a hero they had with six strength. I then played power of a god, getting rid of every ally they had. Then all I had to do was get one more mischief and play it and I won the game next turn
Moving to others boards is a really cool idea I know I had a custom idea that's my original Kingdom Hearts Villain who's thing is he has to move to another domain every turn. Nice to see that coming official in a small way.
@@LordoftheBoard Also, I can’t quite see but on the Amazon pictures it looks like she has a card called ‘Call Me Big Mama’ 😂 Not sure if that’s right though
I wish amazon had the preorder working. It says currently unavailable?!?! I really want the green Loki. I can't wait for the gameplay. I'm so excited for this expansion. I'm so glad you got sponsored by Ravensburger for this. Congrats! Looking forward to the other 2 :)
Hey LOTB!! Villainous is a favourite in my house for sure, and we definitely come to your channel when ever new villains come out or questions arise. I was just wondering, are you going to be doing strategy guides on Venom, Doc Ock, Titania, and Kang the Conqueror anytime soon? Thanks 😊
Can’t wait for this expansion to drop villainous is my favorite board game I think but there’s some really good ones out there. Who was your favorite in this new expansion?
I wish there was more info on the Fate Cards if only so I had more of a reason to gush about them haha. I adore how a lot of Loki’s Fate cards also mess with Hela’s style too, since many cards in his Fate Deck can’t have Soul Marks! Which is excellent since a lot of people have said Hela is one of the most powerful Villains in the Marvel set, and it makes sense since Hela and Loki often deal with the same people haha
Just so I've got this correct, the players Locator doesn't have to be on the same Location as Lady Loki for that player to do the effect. They can just do this when they draw back up to 4?
I've got a way to use the most brilliant jest. If a Thanos player has someone like black dwarf in your domain, black dwarf is (to you) considered a hero and, therefore, susceptible to the effects of the most brilliant jest.
Is there a new neutral fate deck? If so, how do you mix it with the other game? Can you just pick your favorite heroes and make your own neutral fate deck?
They didn’t give rules on mixing! But there is another common deck - so I would say you could randomize which one you use or make your own mix using same amount of heroes - events and effects!
I'm not sure why Marvel Villainous doesn't have good reviews. I expected it to be the same as Disney. I like Disney Villainous and don't see why this isn't as good. Any thoughts on this?
There was some rule confusions and a few loud folks posted negative videos or posted on it. The set isn’t as bad as it’s reviews. It in fact has sold more than Disney Villainous! It is definitely more tailored for higher player counts like 3 and 4 - but this set adds good 1v1 variety as well as multiple player variety!
I think that it is because Marvel Villainous is more complex than Disney Villainous. There are many thing similar between the two that some people may just want to play Disney Villainous because it is easier to teach and play.
Bruh I know I'm super late lol but I just got onto board games and marvel villainous is so dope. Could you please do videos on Twisted Ambitions (Doc Oc, Kang, Titania) and We are Venom (Venom) lol please 🙏
I have a question about Loki's Fate Card Payment Due. the exact text on the copy I have is "The Targeted Villain must either pay Power equal to the number of Multiverse cards in play. If the Targeted Villain is Loki, move that number of collected Mischief back to the unused pile." Was something left out or is that a typo?
Hey I got this from the villainous wiki page and wondering if anyone can elaborate on it because it just happened when I played: It is possible for Loki to be locked out of being able to win. This may occur when Ragnarok is in play, and/or Odin All-Father and one other Hero are at Bifrost and Sanctum Sanctorum. Loki must also have only cards in his hand that require Mischief to be spent, meaning that Loki cannot play or discard any cards. Potentially, Loki may be able to play a Fate card that will allow him to remove a Hero from his own Domain, such as Found by the Avengers. In any case, consider being willing to let Loki play or discard an Effect without requiring or following any actual card text. Does anyone know how I can go about this and see if there are any other solutions and a better explanation?
I've heard that some have theory crafted this. At the end of the day the likelihood is really unlikely. But also it still hasnt come up in any of the games ive played as loki and ive played too many to count.
Please explain something for me. When you play a multiverse loki on someone's board do you controll that "Ally" or does the villain who's board it is on? Can Modoks card that removed a hero and an Ally remove the multiverse card?
Multiverse cards are not treated as Allies or as Characters. They say they work similar to Allies because the benefit is unavoidable to the player it’s domain belongs too. The only way to manipulate the multiverse cards are with cards that specifically say “multiverse” in them
@@LordoftheBoard thank you for the reply! It's gonna be a hard sell on my friends that they aren't Allies because the rules say "like allies" so every time I play loki I've never get to keep multiverse cards on the board lol. But thanks maybe one day I'll convince them.
hey i just noticed in the strategy part you say its smart to use the power of a god on avenger hulk to "vanquish" it but the card states remove not vanquish so wouldnt it negate hulks ability and thus not be able to "re use" him for mischief use?
Question: If King Loki is in Hela's domain, and Hela uses the Midgard Serpent to vanquish heroes, does that count as as one vanquish action per defeated hero, or just one vanquish action period?
Great video! However, I'm kinda confused by this deck. I don't keep up with Loki in the comics so maybe I'm just missing information, but why is Thor an ally? Also, is having different versions of himself going around the multiverse really that big of a part of his whole deal?
So this is more in line with the Multiverse Comics as well as the new Marvel tv show about Loki. He always causes confusion and mischief so this was a way they designed him to give that feeling. Also Thor is an ally since there is a multiverse this is the version of Thor was worked alongside Loki :)
In a lot of the recent comics he is more of an anti-hero, so occasionally allying with Thor (as he did in the movies) is not out of the question. As far as the multiverse stuff goes, they basically took different forms he has taken on in the comics and themed them to the Loki tv show.
Need someone to help clarify: rulebook says multiverse cards are played to other domains, and there can be only one multiverse card at any location. “Any location” makes it sound like they can go in the same domain, but need to be at different locations on their board. The video states only one per domain. Can someone help clear up which it is?
Amazing video but I am confused about the multiverse cards. Are they played just as a regular play a card action or are they combined with specialty cards?
I do have a question on the universal fate deck. If you are using villains from different boxes will the universal fate cards get mixed together alongside the character specific fate cards?
@@LordoftheBoard I believe I'm gonna play with both common fate decks bc I was browsing through the cards in infinite power last night and in Ultrons fate deck, Wondermans ability is to bring out vision when he is defeated.. so in order to do that infinite powers common fate deck will have to be available even tho I know I'm going to be playing m&m for a while!! Or at least until we get a new villainous ( hopefully star wars)
i have aquestion guys, with the games within games card could I relocate a multivers card to my domain? cause, in his guide book, says multiverse cards cant PLAY in loki's domain, but can we relocate it from another domain to our own domain?
So opponents do not have to activate Multiverse abilities? If they moved to Kid Loki's space, they can choose whether to gain 4 power? That's not mandatory? If Destroyer is played as a Hero Fate Card on Warrior Falls in Killmonger's Domain, can Killmonger use Taunt to move Destroyer? Destroyer is an Item card.
Some they can activate - some they must. For example you can choose not to move to Kid Loki’s location. However if king Loki exists in your realm every time you vanquish you must return those allies to your hand Yes, destroyer is treated as a hero
@@LordoftheBoard Thamls for the quick response. I noticed global event fate cards without a symbol. Can those be added to the common fate deck without anyone playing Loki, M.O.D.O.K or Madame Masque? Did the expansion add any new fate cards to the common fate deck?
I misspoke - multiple MULTIVERSE CARDS can exist in a domain, just can’t be at the same location.
So good to know! I was starting to think he'd be really bad at 2player. Kind of like Thanos...
@@gvsuchris he’s actually really fun at 2 - it’s a tricky puzzle because both players kinda go into overdrive! :)
@@LordoftheBoard that's awesome! Usually it's just my husband and I who play. Now I just need that pre-order to ship haha

💪🏽🔥
Amazing Loki cosplay. These videos never cease to amaze me! :)
I'm so hyyyyyypedd! I really want them to add Kang the Conqueror to the game, it makes so much sense. (also he's my favourite!)
Omg that would be sick! :)
That’s what I’ve said! Time travel would add so much to this gameplay
Kang is in the game!!
Verity Wells being in the game makes me want to cry. She’s such an important character to me and one that Marvel is almost certainly going to forget. This just became a must buy for me
Right! Made me so happy to see her! :)
A word of an advise, use banished fate card on Thanos or Madam Masque

I’ve watched this video frame by frame to see as much of the other character boards and fate cards as possible
That is commitment
@@LordoftheBoard Can’t wait for a look at MODOK and Madame Masque. Am I right in saying there is nowhere in her domain to gain power?
@@freddietickle732 you are right that on her board there are no power actions :)

Thank you I am so very excited 💕💕 the playthrough will be awesome for people to see how they play in action!
I really want the green Loki too, hope the standard version becomes available at Amazon soon!
Loki looks a lot of fun using his specials and Multiverse cards!
One of my favs!
Aaaaaaand I think I found my new favorite villainous character.
He is so much fun
I’m living for the visuals 😍👏🏼
Thank you ❤️ you know I try so hard hehe
Hey LOTB!!
Villainous is a favourite in my house for sure, and we definitely come to your channel when ever new villains come out or questions arise.
I was just wondering, are you going to be doing strategy guides on Venom, Doc Ock, Titania, and Kang the Conqueror anytime soon?
Thanks 😊
Oh my God I can’t wait for this!!
I can't wait either. Your quite handsome though.. Thanks for the strategy guide though
I love using Leah to double fate my opponents in the Bifrost. So satisfying
This is a true vibe!
Can you do a villain guide of the most recent venom expansion?
Can’t wait for this expansion to drop villainous is my favorite board game I think but there’s some really good ones out there. Who was your favorite in this new expansion?
Just to clarify I know you said loki was your favorite in the video but is he your favorite out of all of the marvel villains?
Sooo many mind games to be played as loki
So so many :)
So Loki is like the Riverfolk Company of the Marvel universe xD
Precisely 🙌🏽 sell sell sell
Thanks for the video. I've been waiting for it
You got it!
Great video! Excited for modok!
Were you pleased with MODOK?
I finally got my hands on this. My mother got it for me for Christmas. I can't wait to play Loki and M.O.D.O.K.
Good choice! Hope you enjoy :)
Appreciatet that you dressed up as tom hiddleston with the suite and greased hair
Haha appreciate you noticed! :)

Yes the player’s mover piece can be at any location for Lady Loki’s ability to activate.
Thank u Lord of the board!
You got it! :)
The Ten Realms card looks INSANE oh my goodness 🤯
Also, where is Alligator Loki???
It’s next level! Like ahh I have had dreams of this being a reality!
Does Loki love Lorelei?
@1:26 in the video you can see 2 different loki villainous movers. Are there 2 different versions of the game or am I missing something?
The dark green Loki comes in the regular version. The blue transparent one is the exclusive piece that comes with the Target version of the game.
Another advice I found out. Play kid Loki to Thanos's domain
I've got a way to use the most brilliant jest. If a Thanos player has someone like black dwarf in your domain, black dwarf is (to you) considered a hero and, therefore, susceptible to the effects of the most brilliant jest.
Hi. I love these strategy guide videos for villainous Marvel. Are you planning on doing new videos for the new villains?
Definitely!
I love your Villainous guide videos Sam! Will you be making more for the villains that have released since this video?
It is hard atm to fit in. Its possible but im just not going to give a timeline rn.
When will Madam Masque or Modoks strategy guide be coming out??

Do you use the base game fate deck if you play as a base game villain,with Loki?
You can choose to use either deck! Or there is rules to mix and match too :)

Yes! I wanted to show off the target exclusive piece too! The Icey one is target exclusive. Green is the standard one :)
I forgot that Target does that, thanks.
