First Line of Defense

I put together this deck to be an option for introducing new players to the game. I tried to include a little bit of everything the game has, but to be pretty simple to navigate. Iron Fist and Never Back Down are there to show off some status effects. Med Team and What Doesn't Kill Me allow Cap to heal and Desperate Defense will let you ready back up. Black Widow lets you do a little more during the villain phase to cancel some negative encounter cards.

Use this deck to help protect your other players from the villain’s attack and mitigate some of their nasty effects. It’s not the flashiest deck, but you should be able to get some deck damage in when the cards allow while punishing them for swinging on you with two sources of Retaliate. Hopefully with Never Back Down, Desperate Defense, and Hard Knocks you’ll be able to stay healthy and avoid some of the damage the villain want to hit you with. Try to stay in Hero form as much as possible to let your justice player have an easier time managing threat, but if it gets too dicey, flip down to heal up and avoid damage.

For mulligans, I would recommend holding onto some resource cards and some supports or upgrades. Priority is below:

1. Super-Soldier Serum or Quincarrier
2. Armored Vest
3. Unflappable
4. Endurance or Dauntless
