Dive Bomb is Excessive... (Critical Encounters Deck Build)

A pretty typical Dive Bomb deck. Built with a plethora of Mental Resources because Iron Man requires at least two to be spent each turn you're trying to trigger his Boots AND Honed Technique. Not by any means the most efficient deck in the world, but an absolute blast against swarming minion encounters. Pun intended.

Hand Cannon adds some extra tech to get Iron Man's slow start sped up a bit, as well as Lock and Load gives some guaranteed access to it and bad luck protection against not drawing any, synergizes extremely well with Follow Through and Moment of Triumph. Most of your Allies pay for themselves.

No Quarter + Follow Through + Honed Technique + Warrior Skill = BIG RED HANDS.

Take some hits, pop a Honed Technique empowered Dive Bomb and drop a Moment of Triumph to completely negate any of those pesky wounds.

Decks a lot of fun, it can function in solo, but I suggest multiplayer paired with a hero that can handle the threat while you set up. Also, I suggest playing this in scenarios with decent minion presence as a lot of the mechanics of the deck are built around having a few minions out to smash in to. Hall of Heroes in particular.

(Yes it's over 40 cards. Can probably make some cuts here and there depending on scenario.)
