Big Idea: Choke off their Resourse row via direct burn and draw from 4 drop darkseid...he is your lynchpin. Late game have multiple darkseids out to really screw them up.

Mulligan for: A 4 drop Darkseid, or a way to get him out on 4 (Created from hate/Mobilize)


You want your row to be 1 Ancinent Throne, 2-3 Servants of darkness and 1-2 AntiLife. A teamup is fine, but NOT nessesary. (And Truth and Justice is the choice so when youve got one in the row and flipped, the extras you draw aren’t just dead cards. It’s OK to end up with a Mobilize, Created from Hate, Beatdown, Hordes or Thank Granny in your row as it can be turned down with Throne for re-use later. Thank Granny can be nasty used this way.


Ideal Plays: Take even inititave if you can choose. Not super imperative.


Turn 1 - Row a servants of darkness, Anti-Life, Truth and Justice or Ancient Throne

No Recruit


Turn 2 - Row a servants of darkness, Anti-Life. (Truth and Justice or Ancient Throne if you havent rowed one yet - only need one of each of these)

Recruit Talisman (Rally for a PT...there are 31 in the deck so, pretty much 50/50)


Turn 3 - Row a servants of darkness, Anti-Life. (Truth and Justice or Ancient Throne if you havent rowed one yet - only need one of each of these)

Recruit Julia Carpenter (Maximize her ability by flipping a servants of Darkness while attacking with her for a free exhaust)


Turn 4 - Row a servants of darkness, Anti-Life. (Truth and Justice or Ancient Throne if you havent rowed one yet - only need one of each of these)

Recruit 4 drop Darkseid, flip all ongoings in your row to burn. Team up if you can. Once team up is online, feel free to substitute out the Talisman and Julia Carpenter for DarK Lantern and Firestorm when you can/if you can. Play a Thank Granny Goodness. (And rememer that if you have AF out, or the team up online, Alpha flight reborn will let you play something like this 2x.)


Turn 5 - You really want an Ancient Throne online by now to make Darkseid non-unique. If you havent got it drop a sasquach if you need to...just don’t loose the 4 drop Darkseid. He is your draw engine. If you need to drop the Alpha Flight characters on 5 and 6 do so as 4-7 Darseids all have substitue. Dont forget to activate Ancient throne to make DS non-unique. (and multiple 4 drops mean multiple draws when your opponent flips something from his row (like a team up?)


Follow suit keeping your 4 drop darkseid safe...work up the chain and remember to use throne to make him non unique.


Extra low drops late in the game or extra thrones can be ued for the discard for throne to flip your resources.


Abuse Darkseid as much as possible. Save multiples of Hordes for your kill turn...each card is 6 attack...Good luck,
