Reviews

There's nothing much wrong with a decently sized that impulse draws you a card on entering. I played a fair few Crimson Operatives back in Marvel Super Heroes, and I imagine I'll play a few Gundabad Opportunists in this format as well.

Red's best commons (Pinecone Strike, Dori, Bearer of Friends, Gundabad Opportunist) and uncommons (Bothersome Noisemaker, Burn, Burn, Tree and Fern, Gandalf, Spark Starter, Misty Mountains Raider) fit into every single deck.
