Adam Warlock Guardian Swarm - Expert Clearing Deck

Used this deck in multiplayer alongside justice black widow and in my opinion, it faired as well as strong leadership decks that are well documented on this website. Cleared all villains (up to GMW) on Expert mode.

The concept is quite simple:

Every turn starting from turn 1, you want to deal with minions/thwart AND build up at least 1 thing per turn in your deck. You're going for control. With some villains, like Ronan, control always hangs in the balance, but you can overcome his momentum with it with the right choices / cards in your hands.

You will go through this deck quite fast, so don't worry about discarding strong supports/upgrades in order to pay for optimized hands.

Starhawk and Bug (with Energy Spear late-game) have been the main stars of the show.

Mystic Senses and Sorcerer Supreme are probably main build-up bread winners.

Due to Soul World's HP recovery, you can tank quite a few hits in the first couple of rounds.

Adam's cards are either strong or weak. I find myself rarely using Warlock's Cape, Karmic Blast, Cosmic Awareness & Pip, which is ok because you need resources to pay for all the awesome cards in this deck.
