All You Need is a Shield and a Yo-Yo

See this deck played at: https://youtu.be/sVqtzBPEfaE

It has taken me a while to figure out how Falcon fits my play style. My last deck, Falcon's Favor, really began to open my eyes to how great he can really be. Vibranium Microweave has probably become one of my favorite cards in this game. I knew I wanted to try him in leadership next, and then it hit me, Clarity of Purpose would combo well with the weave. This is the starting point that led to the birth of this deck

So What's the Plan?

Two crucial combos make up the skeleton of this deck. The rest is just fluff that you can tailor to fit your play style.

  1. The first is the bigger piece. Focus on getting Vibranium Microweave, Clarity of Purpose, Captain America, and Quincarrier onto the table. This will guarantee that you can cycle your shield over and over again without having to use the resources in your hand. Bounce the Clarity of Purpose damage off your weave, and this cycle will allow you to deal a total of 5 damage per turn, without making an attack or worrying about being stunned or exhausted. An added bonus is that you have a defense of 4 now, and retaliate 1, which means you're really doing 6 damage a turn with this mini combo. Play Battlefield Awareness, and you don't really need to worry about taking any damage when you defend.

  2. The second is a much simpler engine, Slingshot and Command Team. I made sure I had plenty of energy resources in the deck to guarantee Yo-Yo could be played every turn. Then use the Command Team to let her activate twice. If I did not have an energy resource, I would use one of the wilds from the previous combo to get her on the table.

It was as simple as that: defend, shield toss, and then yo-yo. Everything else was just a bonus on top of that. Especially Up, Up, and Away.

Conclusion

I'm a simple guy, and these two simple engines are just fun to play, especially together. I would highly recommend it if you are still getting familiar with Falcon. I would love to know what recommendations or changes you might make to this build.

I love Clarity of Purpose with Vibranium Microweave, that's such a great combo I never thought of! At first I thought "that doesn't work" but it totally does because Clarity deals you a damage, and Microweave prevents a damage taken. Brilliant!

The only thing I might add is Suit Up. It'll find any ally and Clarity of Purpose, (because it can attach to any friendly, but of course you'll attach it to yourself), so find Yo-Yo and Clarity and you're setting up both of our combos!

I'll give this one a try!!

@SoloMarvelChampion Thanks! It is such a fun little combo. It's really amazing how much fun chip damage can really be. It's a beautifully cheap and enjoyable resource generator, especially knowing that you are more than likely going to play Vibranium Microweave anyways.

Suit Up is an ingenious thought! Plus, it has a physical resource to help bounce your shield for late game, too, if you need it to. That is a fantastic addition. You can probably take out Stinger and Kid Omega if you want to keep the deck at 40, but I don't think that playing it at 42 cards would be bad either.

Let me know how it goes - looking forward to hearing about your experience with this deck!

I like it a very great looking deck!

Cool concept

I love seeing Leadership Falcon! Great idea!

Aug 26, 2025 JacenSketch · 693

@andyr thanks! I appreciate it! Falcon can be a lot of fun in Leadership!

"Clarity of Shield" is what i will call this brilliant combo. Can no wait to try this combo!

Aug 26, 2025 JacenSketch · 693

@Dayspring lol, I like it! "Clarity of Shield" had a nice ring to it. Glad you think it's brilliant! Can't wait to hear about your experience!

The Clarity of Purpose into Vibranium Microweave is a sweet combo! Good to see people enjoying Falcon.

Aug 26, 2025 JacenSketch · 693

@boomguy it really is such a fun combo. It has taken me a while to get there, but I think I might be turning around on Falcon and really starting to enjoy playing him more.

I’m a big Falcon Cap/Leadership fan but never thought of the Clarity of Purpose + Microweave with the Shield combo. Very clever. Love it!

Aug 27, 2025 Cameson · 621

I need to try this out!

Aug 27, 2025 JacenSketch · 693

@R8C2 thanks! Im glad you think so, I hope you get a chance to try it out!

@Cameson do it! Let me know how it goes! Hope it plays well, for you!

Am i crazy, or is Captain America's shield not in this deck list?

Aug 27, 2025 Cameson · 621

@ArkVang1 You aren't crazy, it's a little confusing! Cap's Shield is a Linked card that is set aside and is only brought into play by the Captain America upgrade. Linked cards work a little differently but are not included in a deck

Aug 27, 2025 ArkVang1 · 1

Ah makes sense, okay thanks!

Aug 28, 2025 Cameson · 621

@JacenSketch Update: I just tried out the deck, and it was a ton of fun. Until this point, I genuinely found Falcon boring and very unsatisfying to play. Thank you, this is amazing!

Aug 28, 2025 JacenSketch · 693

@Cameson happy I could help! I completely agree, it took me a long time to find an enjoyable way for me to play him too. I'm glad it went well for you and you're finding him more fun to play!

That Vibranium Microweave combo could be used in Protection with the Rogue ally and to a lesser extent in Aggression with Blood Rage.

Aug 29, 2025 JacenSketch · 693

@dkilkay oh good call out! I hadn't thought about using Rouge with VMW! I really like that idea! Hadn't considered Blood Rage either. Good calls!

Aug 29, 2025 dkilkay · 300

@JacenSketch I also think in Protection, Height Advantage can be combined with Taunt and Bait and Switch to draw a lot of fire and reduce damage. (Unfortunately, Draw Their Fire doesn't combo unless you can do multiple Taunts/B&S in your turn. Which would lead to crazy powerful turns if you do.)

But I do agree with your premise that Vibranium Microweave is the best card in his kit, it opens up unique possibilities. Love seeing Cosmo in there too, great call.

Aug 30, 2025 JacenSketch · 693

@dkilkay Oh! I had considered Height Advantage for my Falcon's Favor protection deck, but had cut it due to the discard feature. I didn't think about having it out before a Taunt though. That is an excellent call!

Oh, for sure, Vibranium Microweave is hands down his best card.

Cosmo is great too, but honestly, even when I have him in the deck, he doesn't see much play. He does bring a nice advantage if he is in play, though.

You’re a genius

Aug 31, 2025 JacenSketch · 693

@rikkyblikky idk about all that, but I'm glad you enjoy the concept.

I've been really lukewarm on Falcon since he released and haven't found a deck that clicks for me - I definitely have to give this one a go as it looks really fun!

Sep 03, 2025 JacenSketch · 693

@Swarles90 Same here, my dude. This is the first few decks that really helped me to enjoy Falcon. Let me know how this deck does for you! I hope you enjoy it!
