To be honest, I know people love this character, but I just can't stand him. Maybe its because he's based off of Deadpool which, much like Bobba Fett, I find to be one of the most overrated characters ever created. Or maybe its because he breaks the fourth wall, which while cute and a little funny, just completely takes me out of any story I'm reading or watching when a character does that.

I can get behind the Omnitron IV environment though, and fingers crossed for the Prime Warden variants now that all the heroes on the team are going to be available.

Christopher has said himself Guise is inspired by Ambush Bug not Deadpool.  Guise isn't for everyone but I could say that with any comic book hero that they may rub people the wrong way.

My groups first response when I introduced the deck was "oh, so he's Deadpool". I think that has colored my perception of him since. I can kinda see Ambush Bug.

Pet peeves aside, a game with 37 individual hero decks with only 1 that rubs me the wrong way tells me they are doing a lot right.

That doesn't mean he's not like Deadpool. Because he really kind of is, even if he's more directly related to Ambush Bug.

From http://www.avclub.com/article/sentinels-multiverse-pays-tribute-convoluted-comic-222507

>

The meta-humor-slinging hero Guise was inspired by the DC character Ambush Bug, though Badell said most players associate him with the much more popular Deadpool.

I get that people think he is like Deadpool and it makes sense but that was not the inspiration

I wish but since I am currently working on a project that will decide if i get to stay in school to get my degree or get kicked out… probably not.

 

On a side note: excited for this. starting with Wrath I really havent gotten to play with many of the newer stuff just due to time constraints and lets face it, if i had to choose to set up a game, much rather spend the 30 seconds to start up the app than 20 minutes to set it up to play solo.

I wish I could too, but alas, i can't. Mostly, it will be spent using works wi-fi to download, then taking the metro (or subway for those people) to play a game, then update my steam.

I'm good with a Kickstarter, just bummed we will have to wait even longer for Setback, KNYFE and The Naturalist. If the money earned makes the user experience in the game even better I'm willing to wait, and contribute, though. I am hoping they will be working on coding Vengeance while the Kickstarter is going.

based off their comment about mini pack 3 possibly being out before the end of the kickstarter. They will probably start it right when it ends. I am kinda curious why they decided to do a kickstarter over just a season 2 pass though? Unless there is more to this that we do not know. Maybe they are including Sentinel Tactics: The Video Game in the kickstarter???

The Kickstarter campaign will be to fund the development of Season 2, and the "regular" pledge will be a copy of Season Pass 2. After the campaign Kickstarter funds, it will also be for sale just like Season Pass 1 is. 

If the campaign doesn't fund... we'll have to figure it out. It would be best if you all make sure it does =)

The update seems to be working for me, but am I correct that Heroic Infinitor can't be unlocked yet?  He doesn't have a variant bar.

 

Also, did Miss Information's theme get an update?  I don't recall hearing some of the sound effects in there before, but that could just be my memory.

The Variant wont be available to unlock until the game is available on all platforms... and Apple did a thing again.

On a different note...I queued up Progeny on Advanced (of course), and I finally beat him for the first time.

I randomed Chrono, Scholar, Dark Watch Fixer, Captain Cosmic, and Argent.  From the ~ENCLAVE OF THE ENDLINGS!~

The key are he didn't get out his destruction cards or Scion of Frost to heal until 2/3 down in HP.  I had calculated Chrono would be a good matchup as he deals multiple instances of damage easily in a turn, and he proved me right.  Bow FTW.

I hadn't been close at all in beating him on Advanced.  60 during previous attempts.  I did think I would do it on Steam first just for fast book keeping and restarts.  Overall, he didn't play his best stuff, and I just kept attacking.  I didn't really have many cards out since DW Fixer and he has double Scion of Toxicity eating those.

Scholar was at 2, Fixer was at 1, and I would have lost next turn for sure.

Anyone know where to find a guide for playing Captain Cosmic? I assumed the very first time I played him went bad because I didn't know what I was doing, but a dozen games this evening, and I only had one where I felt like he was a benefit to the team.

On that note, three Autonomous Blades stacked on Bunker with a Cosmic Weapon, Gatling Gun and Turret Mode is lots of fun. :D
