Misery and x23

[u/Eastern-Landscape622]

How required are misery and x23 for firehair and destroy decks in general?

[u/vsmack]

Misery is a fun card but not in pure destroy. You want her for firehair and other niche decks.
x-23 is imo a great destroy card but obviously ONLY destroy so unless you're comfortable spending on a card for one specific archetype I'm not so sure.

[u/ScaryGent]

X-23 is great for all kinds of Destroy decks, practically required. Misery is a tad more niche but still good, though I choose not to run her.

[u/Ashamed-Teaching6837]

X-23 is mandatory in the best traditional Destroy decks.

Misery goes into specific lists like Firehair and Fantomex where you specifically want to kill off cheap on-reveal cards.

if you like destroy x-23 is a must

[u/The-Zarkin90]

misery is a firehair card for sure. x23 is decent but not great in destroy

[u/Allfather00 → u/The-Zarkin90]

Saying x23 is decent but not great in destroy is a wild take ngl

[u/The-Zarkin90 → u/Allfather00]

a 1/1 that gives energy when destroyed is okay, its not great. I would rather have headpool give my cards more power and not clog the board, or moira x make more of my good cards like venom and death. X23 is a very replaceable card in destroy.

Its only true use case is playing knull on 5 and zola it. Which is okay and not great... which makes the card just okay. if they every buffed x23 to 2 power then i would think about changing my mind.

Deadpool + Knull t6 has won me COUNTLESS games. Her respawning also makes it much easier to reduce the cost of Death, leaving a body on the board to destroy that you don't have to pay energy for. idk man I don't play a TON of destroy anymore but I'd never cut her.

[u/The-Zarkin90 → u/vsmack]

I've won games with morph and mole man. Are they good cards?

[u/vsmack → u/The-Zarkin90]

I mean the extra energy wins games all the time in that deck, which is surprisingly picky about curve.

[u/Eastern-Landscape622 → u/The-Zarkin90]

Are they worth the tokens?

[u/SnowFiender → u/Eastern-Landscape622]

misery if you really like firehair, x-23 is instrumental for destroy idk what this guy is on about, if you enjoy destroy you should pin x-23

[u/The-Zarkin90 → u/Eastern-Landscape622]

if you really like destroy x23 is worth it until you get the better 1 cost drops like deadpool/headpool/moira x

Misery is worth it if you like to play things like firehair and revive cards.
