This is one of those cards that a bit too many players sit on.

The most obvious target to include this card in a leadership deck is Quicksilver, as he can experience turns in which he has 6 basic actions when only using his kit. Giving him more cards where he can take advantage of when he draws Always Be Running is great for him to be a highly versatile character.

But even heroes like Captain America and Cable who can give themselves multiple basic actions, this can be a great card. Wasp on giant form is always looking for stat boosts when you can combo this with Earth's Mightiest Heroes and hand ally activations over to her with her "no waste" attacks and thwarts.

At the end of the day this card does it's job for heroes with good action economy and provides a less situational way to gain the benefit over it's alternatives like Moxie (and in many of the decks I use this in, I utilize both)

Weird, his 3rd stage has less health than his 2nd stage. Stage 3 has 16 per person, and stage 2 has 17 per person. Seems like the health numbers got switched or something, it would have been 15 -> 16 -> 17 but instead we got 15 -> 17 -> 16.

Again, weird.

While there is a slight excuse that players have comparing this card to United We Stand since more the half the heroes were Avengers when this box came out, it is now an exceptionally flawed comparison. Not only does it miss the fact that it's only on Skirmish 3 mode that United We Stand gives you 3 health across 3 characters the entire game (on expert, most of the game is spent on Stage II, not III), it ignores that retaliation would deal extra damage to each of your allies attacking on their own, non-avengers can utilize this card just fine, and that there are lots of leadership decks that boost the hero's attack, so this allows you to pull double duty of keeping your allies out longer and utilizing those turns where hero is packing higher levels of attack.

Once again, the thinkers out thought themselves on this one.

In the current environment of Sentinels capturing your chump blockers, Infinites getting stronger when you recklessly throw away allies, and way more Villains utilizing overkill so there are no guarantees that your allies will even prevent much damage. There is also allies like Colossus, Wonder Man, Blade, Giant-Man, Cannonball, Drax, etc, etc, etc, that have stipulations about there attacks that might not be met each turn but cards like this by-pass that.

This card was always better then branded, and if someone is keeping it in the back of their binder, they might consider breaking it out to allow themselves more ways to get around ally limitations and villain/minion defenses then they were thinking.

Brother Voodoo wins the "Worst Flavor Text" award. Is Brother voodoo introducing himself really the best comic quote they could find? It gives no information about the character that isn't ALREADY PRINTED ON THE CARD

This is a great way to utilize temporary allies. Ex) Wasp Leadership running Goliath, Nick Fury, Nick Fury Sr, and Professor X. As an example: You play Professor X and confuse the villain, thwart with Professor X for 3, declare basic thwart with Wasp for 2, use you got this to discard Professor putting your current thwart up to 5, ready immediately and thwart again for 5.
