"Prepare yourself, simpleton." ~Nick Fury, quoting Drax, probably

Hey all! I've finally gotten around to playing Nick Fury, and this build was a stand out for me in multiplayer. Fury loves to 'encourage' his enemies from the shadows, so let's get to it!

Deck Debrief

This deck leans into playing Taunt from Stealth form to take no damage while drawing cards. Yeah, sure, the villain schemes, but in multiplayer it's not a huge deal and you're bringing a hefty amount of thwarting to the table with Ever Vigilant and basic activations once your Flying Car is out.

To keep his suit from getting too much threat, we've got Fighting Fit for a huge burst of damage before flipping down, or going back to stealth via Covert Surveillance.

And since we don't really mind flipping down to search out tech with Leo Fitz, we can use Defensive Training to recycle our key Protection events.

We've got several other allies that are handy to keep around for table support and Med Team to keep Maria Hill around. Feel free to drop in some stronger allies, but I like Warlock's interaction with Fury's Watch and Brother Voodoo for the extra THW and event card.

This has been a blast so far, and I seem to be tweaking it with every game. I'd be interested to hear if y'all have played something similar or if you have any ideas on how to make this stronger. Until next time...

~Peace!

@andyr Thank you, friend! I've found him super helpful to ping toughs or just keep threat as low as possible.

Ooh this looks fun. I had a similar idea for Nick, but this is just better. Can't wait to try it out!

@boomguy Thanks! I think he has a lot of potential to improve, I just need to get even more games with him! He made my 'Con list for this year, which I wasn't expecting.

@D.M.Tip any deck with Warlock is an automatic like for me. Taunt with Nick is just too good, looks great!

@Castlefrank47 Thank you! I haven't used Warlock nearly enough in the past, so I was happy to find a home for him here.

Fury Taunt in multiplayer is a great idea. I mean, we didn't invite the Justice player to join just so that they could have unspent resources.

@josseroo Yes, exactly! They need something to keep them occupied.

I love to see Espionage and Target Acquired getting some love! Why Black Widow? She just seems... Less efficient or impactful to some of the other protection allies.

Apr 15, 2025 D.M.Tip · 1841

@Footballcoach Yeah, those preps work really well with Nick. Great question about Black Widow ~ she's there for a bit of theme, but also multiplayer utility. She is one of those encounter card disruptions that work no matter which player's encounter card it is, and it's not treachery specific. But like you said, there are plenty of other Protection allies you could throw in instead, which doesn't affect the core idea of the deck.

This is sick. I just started playing with Nick the other day and was toying around with the Taunt idea. Didn't even consider Ever Vigilant as an option for him in protection, but what a great combo with the Flying Car! Im gonna need to try this out! Let us know how he does at the con!

Why not run Simmons as well to reduce the cost of some of the tech cards?

@JacenSketch Thanks!! It feels really good in multiplayer and I've been able to crush some expert scenarios so far in 3-player. I'm stoked to try it out in 4-player games and will let y'all know how it does at the Con!

Good question about Jemma ~ I didn't think there were enough tech targets to include her. Fitz is important to get the Car and Watch out more consistently, but once they are in play, I found I didn't have enough recurring tech for Jemma. I think once the Stun Gun and Energy Shield come out, I'd Probably throw those in and maybe consider her again, or at least give Fitz some more tech targets for later in the game.
