To Her My X-Men (Con of Heroes 2026)

To Her My X-Men

She's in charge of the Danger Room Training this week

You don't have to have been an All-Star or Hall of Fame player to be a good coach, and Maria Hill is here to show she doesn't need to be a Mutant to lead a bunch of X-Men in Danger Room Training, with a focus this week on Attack Training. She's even going to let the newest recruit Dust fire the latest S.H.I.E.L.D. firearm Bambino!

The training simulation will have each X-Men arrive via a halo dive from The Circe. They will land at Boot Camp, and will be given Game Time instructions and paired with Field Agents. War games will begin and many minions will need to be fought off, and Maria has the Reinforcements and All-Points Bulletin to make sure this training excercise goes off with out a hitch!

Now On the Double!!!!

I mainly wanted to have Maria use Danger Room and Circe together, and had a lot of fun with that! The Dust + Bambino combo if it hits is "cool combo" but obviously these are good allies and Game time is a good card so that combo isn't required to succeed.

Turn 0 Strategy

This deck has Evaluate Threat and Lock and Load so I would encourage others in the game to look for SHIELD/Avenger cards they can include and any weapons. Easy recommendations everyone should have a copy floating around:

• Helicarrier
• Avengers Mansion
• Nick Fury
• The Raft
• Med Team
• Sidearm
• Sonic Rifle
• and I’m sure there are other cards! Just encourage them to include something.

I am including 3 Sidearm in my side board and can provide them to others if they are willing.
