Playthroughs:
Venom uses weapons to do many things: spread damage, targeted damage, creating weaknesses for damage. He's the machinist, and when he has all of his tools out, he's ready to clear the board.
Tools
Obviously, you want to get the weapons out. That's the heart of any Venom deck, but there's one other tool not to pass up on, and that's Float Like a Butterfly. This deck contains so much synergy and method around "confused" that even steady enemies will be subject to the extra damage. It's great to be able to have Dazzler or Spider-Woman do 3 damage to enemies.
Debilitator
Speaking of Float Like a Butterfly, it helps create an enemy weakness around confusion. One extra damage doesn't feel like much until you get to see how much it adds up over the course of a game and with any character you control. Scare Tactic is now 4 damage, your base attack will do 5 damage, and Professor X can even do 1 damage.
Noiseblaster
Inflict confuse on all enemies through the myriad of cards. "Think Fast!" lets you use your health to confuse. Upside the Head the head lets you confuse the villain or a high-health minion. In fact, nothing feels better than doing 4 damage to the Badoon Headhunter, confuse him with Upside the Head, then use Scare Tactic to finish the job.
Sonic Rifle helps with the confusion, but don't forget its other ability of doing 3 damage. This may not be the most efficient use of the weapon, but it is a nice way to deal with minions or the villain when you're looking to make that push.
Auto Crossbow
This is a justice deck, so make sure to keep the board under control using Venom's spread abilities. Multitasking is meant to help get side schemes down or keep tempo with the main scheme. His pistols and thwart can help finish a scheme, and then you can use Skilled Investigator to draw. It's a pretty standard combo, but it's important to call out. Most solo side schemes can be taken care of by Multitasking and Multi-Gun taking two threat away. Sense of Justice is there to help trigger the Multitasking and Behind Enemy Lines bonuses.
Use your tools to keep the board stable. Then do big damage to confused enemies. If the villain is stalwart, use your confuse ability against minions while doing your standard attack and damage to the villain. The goal of confuse is not to flip down. It's to create a weakness around it and do lots of damage. Pretty standard piloting, but pretty fun results!

May 09, 2024Thanks for sharing this! I’ve never been a big fan of Venom but I’ll give this a shot! |
May 09, 2024Awesome! I’ll be curious if it’ll make Venom more palatable. |
@'andyr' I've always thought that Eros is a great ally.
