My estimation of Nathan Summers, as a man, just skyrocketed

Reasons why Cable is like Phil Leotardo from "The Sopranos":

• He is a Soldier. As Tony Soprano once said of made men, "We're soldiers."

• Looks like the shah of Iran

• After he threatens Lorraine Calluzzo, he says, "Next time, there'll be no next time." Phil is hinting at his ability to time travel and manipulate the nature of reality.

Here are some more Phil Leotardo quotes to inspire our Cable Aggression deck:

• "We're, uh, from Alcoholics Anonymous..." "What's your name?" "Well, we're anonymous." Once we finish Technovirus Purge, we will play Psychic Assault and then slip into alter-ego anonymity to make use of Professor and X-Bunker.

• "20 years in the can, I wanted manicott'. I compromised. I ate grilled cheese off the radiator instead." Until we get Askani'son down, we'll compromise. We will play "You'll Pay for That!" instead.

• "Forget my brother Billy." - Phil's voice cracks as he remembers his late brother Billy, whatever happened there. Phil is a family man. We will include Hope Summers in this deck.

• "Guys don't get their finger pricked..." When it comes to wise guys getting made, Phil is a traditionalist. We will prick our finger with Battle Fury.

• "There's no sword and gun on the table..." In addition to Plasma Rifle, we will play Godslayer. We will not play Psimitar because that's not a sword in the card art. Either this deck has meaning or no meaning.
