Vision's Intangibles

I am a simple man. I see a Vision deck, I leave a comment.

How about Get Behind Me!? And how often is PiAoU really needed? It seems like you wouldn't use it with only 5 targets (one of which you want to put into play as a discarded card).

Great concept and deck, but I agree with Boomguy and I would sub PiAoU for maybe 2 more aerial allies like Starhawk, and yea Get Behind Me is interesting here as well. There’s a lot of stuff one would want to….stuff in this deck and PiAoU seems like a good place to get some more of those things in here.

But don’t let that detract from what you’ve done here! This is a really great direction to take Vision.

@boomguy i definitely love the idea of Get Behind Me, especially in two player where you're not as spent preventing damage. And it's a great callout that PiAoU is not the most crucial card, but it does help coach a hand toward the support side of the deck, and that came in handy (punintended) since you'll have a limited hand in hero phase to work with. Unlike Vision though, I can see where that substitution can definitely change the protection shape in a great way.

@Man-is-Obsolete totally get that. I don't know why I missed that Starhawk is aerial! I do think I tried to focus on aerial allies that I was okay leaving out, but there's no push toward Starhawk's ability AND 2-cost is nice! I'd be more tempted to sub out a pinned down for him, but I definitely see the value in targeting PiAoU as well.

thanks, y'all , for looking at and commenting on the deck!

Glad to see people trying out my boy!

Also, I’m realizing no Reboot! Why not use that instead of flipping down to heal and thwart more?

With Cannonball out, I think Starhawk is a must play. And then you'd want to consider Power of Green and the Power of Aerial cards too...

@boomguy Vision is pretty awesome! I don’t think I fully understood his versatility when he first came out! I’m a believer. :)

As far as Reboot, the deck had some at first, but it caused too much churn trying to fill the damage preventing role while holding onto it. And I was only flipping to alter-ego once in standard and two (rarely three) times in expert. It wasn’t worth the cognitive load for me. Each hand felt clear what the goal was.

@teamcanadahockey2002 there’s definitely an aerial vision deck in there, but I will say, my goal with aerial is just for intervention. So Cannonball will be used for Aerial Intervention, I’m not as worried about aerial cards to reduce his consequential. This deck’s role is to mitigate villain damage for two or three other players. I do think Starhawk can be in, but that still only gives 4 targets for power of green. But that’s where I think you’re right that there’s an interesting vision aerial deck to be had. This deck is just looking to play a support role by reducing damage so players are rarely exhausted or spent moving into the hero phase

this is so cool! love it. i love the defending without 'defending' but also can we talk about the absolute badassary of Deflection and Digging Deep/White Fox? chef's kiss

Any thoughts to Specialized? Thinking if you're in Intangible, PSS are good and the card draw could help with not flipping to Dense. Clear it with a single Solar Beam in solo, and the rest of the table appreciates it in multi I'm sure. Just a thought, I like what you've done here!

@andyr haven't played Vision much but this looks like a good one to try out. Thanks for sharing!

@dr00 thanks!! :D it’s definitely fun to replenish a hand

@journeyman2 I definitely like the idea of specialized! I didn’t even think about it from a Solar Beam perspective. I’m definitely for it!

@Castlefrank47 absolutely! Thanks for giving it a look.

Love the theme of a bunch of enemies trying and failing to hurt phased vision!

Vision was the first pack I bought (even before the core set), so it has a special place for me. I also love playing tank in multi, though I couldn't do it with Vision, but I guess that's gonna be different now. Thank you very much for sharing this deck.
