Dalmatians 101

Domino joins every dog in the game for a pseudo-voltron deck. Sadly, no actual Dalmatians were available, so I've used the next best thing.

Stars of the Show

Pongo Cosmo is our main character here; the goal is to load him up with upgrades and keep him alive forever. Call for Backup helps us find him as soon as possible, and his Guardian trait gives us access to a host of good ally upgrades.

Then, his co-star Atlas Bear (who I guess is playing Perdita here?) steps in. She can exhaust (without taking damage!) to peek at the top card of the deck, letting Cosmo know what type it is and thus avoiding his consequential damage. In fact, if it's White Fox or Digging Deep, we're extra lucky because we get a bonus for Cosmo discarding it! Atlas Bear can then also live forever, serving solely as a free way to prevent Cosmo's consequential damage.

A Whole Litter of Pups

Of course, we also have Domino's own Pip the Pug, who joins the usual line-up of alter-ego supports that help your Domino engine run. I won't get into details, except to highlight my favorite combo: using Pip to put White Fox on top of your deck, then using Weapon X to discard past her, getting a free ally in the process.

At first, it may seem that Lucky-jaw is the runt of the litter. However, he is great for a situation that can happen all too often with Domino decks flooded with resources: finding your hand full of resources and nothing to use them on.

Stalwart De Vil, Stalwart De Vil

If it doesn't scare Domino, no keyword will! Like most Domino decks, this one wants you to be in alter-ego a lot, and is thus vulnerable to scheming. This particular deck was designed to work equally well against stalwart villains, but feel free to sub in a Professor X if the villain isn't stalwart.

If we limit ourselves to not confusing the villain, the most we can do is build in some thwarting. Cosmo is actually pretty good on this front, once you load him up with a Comms Implant and Inspired; these should often be prioritized over the ATK-based Laser Blaster and Sidearm, since Domino's hero kit can deal plenty of damage by itself. Once you make him and Atlas Bear both X-Force with X-Force Recruit, Uncanny X-Force also helps out, especially with side schemes.
