SoL Rnd 3: New Birds vs. Wild & Sticky

Gday: “So, I guess we should get round 3 started.”

Spud: “UUUUUGGGGHHHH. NOOOOOO. Do we have to?”

*Spud makes a pouty face*

Gday: “Yes. Yes we do.”

Spud: “Ugh. But there are still two TDB decks in the running. That sucks all the fun out of it.”

Gday: “Well, maybe we can knock one out today.”

Spud: “Really? You’re volunteering to play as it, guaranteeing the loss?”

Gday: “…”

Spud: “The implication being that you always lose.”

Gday: “…”

Spud: “Like, every time.”

Gday: “…”

Spud: “…”

Gday: “…see, this is why I’m always stealing your insulin.”

Spud: “Hey! I need that insulin to live!”

Gday: “I know.”

Punishment

After the results of the very first Gauntlet challenge, Aaron and I continued to discuss the possibilities of a Hand Ninja-fueled Punisher deck. The Marvel Knights work surprisingly well with their enemies, the Crime Lords, and there’s a lot to be said for the deck that I now refer to as Fwocka-Fwocka-Fwocka (“It’s a gun, Frank. A gun that shoots sword.”), so I was originally going to share the end results of our discussion with you, but last week I was toying around with Clone Saga shenanigans and, well, the two kinda blended.

As you know, I’ve had a Captain America deck in the works. As the MUN Super Legend, Captain America got some awesome support, and it certainly doesn’t hurt that you can curve all the way from 2 to 8 with Captain America’s, so your entire board can take advantage of all of those nifty Legend cards, but after two weeks of goofing with ninja and a dude with a gun that shoots swords, it was inevitable that I’d wonder about a Punisher Clone Saga deck.
