This is a combo deck that doesn't rely on statuses. War Machine has issues with thwarting. Most of his allies can thwart 2+ and can help chump block. I will often shuffle Targeted Strike when flipping down unless it's a minion heavy scenario (in which case I'll take back Repulsor Beam). Agent 13 can ready Helicarrier for you.
Anyway, the combo goes like this: You have to build up a number of Munitions Bunker counters (which Agent 13 can help with and build support can help get it in play). Next, you have out Command Team (always save a minimum of 1 counter for Cyclops), rapid response (save for Cyclops), and ideally Call for Backup at 1-2 threat, but sometimes it's fine even if it's at max (even at 7 with Master Plan can be manageable because Cyclops can thwart a lot). You can have Cyclops out at 1 HP or potentially play him from hand.
So, if he's in play with 1 HP, you can attack/thwart and bring him back into play with Rapid Response, he comes back adding +1 damage, then attack/thwart and kill him again, then bring him back again with Call for Backup, he comes back adding +1 damage again, then attack/thwart again, use Command Team on him, attack/thwart with him again and kill him, and if you have Pixie/Make the Call with enough resources, you can potentially bring him back again for a third +1 damage. If you do this, you will have played Cyclops 3 times in a single turn and can go Shoulder Cannon crazy and will probably kill both stages of the villain at once.
If you play Cyclops from hand (+1), you can thwart/attack, command team Cyclops, attack/thwart, rapid response (+1), attack/thwart, call for backup (+1), attack/thwart... which is still 3 plays in a single turn.
You could potentially drop one Rapid Response for: Face the Past, Power in All of Us, +1 Make the Call, or a Noble Sacrifice to get a tough and some heals since you'll be losing life from Clarity of Purpose. This damage is also why I take Down Time.
Interesting combo!
