The Red Queen

The Red Queen

This is the aggression deck I built to beat Expert Ultron. It went 4-0 in two practice games, one recorded but too-long game (51 minutes) and one recorded game which you'll see on May 30th.

Beat 'Em Up is mostly redundant with Spider Bites but it still has its uses:

• You might discard Spider Bites to Stun Ultron
• On Ultron III or when you have the Upgraded Drones attachment in play, the Spider Bites plus Beat 'Em Up can take them out!

If you don't think they're necessary you can (and I almost did) replace them with Ready to Rumble.

Hulk and Brawn are great for defending DRONES, but Brawn is also useful for knocking out a DRONE AND removing a threat somewhere!

Hand Cannon can come in handy, and if you have all of your Black Panther Upgrades in play you can grab one with your Inventor Action because it's TECH.

After MANY more plays (because it's a fun matchup) I think I'd make the following changes:

• -1 Beat 'Em Up
• -2 Hand Cannon
• +3 Ready to Rumble

On the Prowl is great when you're on Assault on NORAD and it has no threat when the villain phase starts. One threat goes on then, if you have an On the Prowl in hand, let the two extra threat go on instead of taking a DRONE.
