Welcome back to Precon Recon, where today we're going to look at the efficiency beast that is Spectrum. For our general thoughts on her kit, feel free to stop by our BGG article here: https://boardgamegeek.com/thread/2789533/1-2-punchboards-precon-recon-spectrum

Made of Pure Energy

Spectrum, both in the comics and in Marvel Champions, is a powerful hero, no matter how you look at it, and the best way we felt we could showcase such a force to be reckoned with is through Aggression. Frankly, she would have a good home in any Aspect, but this is the one we've found best represents her and performs exceptionally well.

When mulliganing, this deck is pretty straightforward; dig for those resource generators (Energy Duplication, Deft Focus, and Martial Prowess) and get them into play ASAP. You want to be able to pay for at least 1 card with your resource pool every turn since most of her deck is fairly expensive. Otherwise, you'll be looking for Speed of Light or any events that might be helpful for the given villain.

Once your resource tableau is in place, you have a lot of freedom to cover whatever is needed based on the situation. Let's take a look at the different tools at your disposal:

  • Allies: You have some heavy hitters here with varying costs, letting you get someone to the table depending on your needs. Hulk is here strictly to defend for you when you don't have the option since your core stats are so valuable. Tigra is here to deal some serious damage and is great at removing minions as needed. Blue Marvel is an option to change forms, but frankly, he's the least valuable of your allies IMO, and using him as a wild resource can be clutch depending on the situation.

  • Events: While you already have some powerful events in your deck, we've included a few more, all with a focus on excess damage. Using your wide resource pool, you'll be able to wipe the board clean and get some free healing out of the deal. This is further assisted by your-

  • Upgrades: While some might find them to be a strange choice, Follow Through is great for furthering the excess damage you are dealing, and you can always toss one to protect your energy generation cards if the villain forces you to. Combat Training is obviously great for making Spectrum hit like a truck, and Ready to Rumble will let you swing all the more often.

With all that in mind, Spectrum can be a phenomenal team player, thwarting or defending as the table needs it all while dropping baddies left and right. Some might wonder why we wouldn't add Surprise Attack to this deck, and while it could be good here, we wanted a deck that focused on the excess damage angle. We may, however, see its addition down the road based on further plays.
