War Machine V Ultron For GetUpandGame!PerfectMatchup

Hi welcome to the thirty eighth in a series of decks I plan to build directly influenced by the amazing Get Up and Game! Perfect Match-Up series found here: https://youtu.be/1I2q3sT6FoA Please check out the channel and the video since I thought it was an amazing gift to the community and it inspired me to start playing Champions more regularly.

My goal with this series is to create a unique deck inspired by each challenge match-up in the video using all the suggested cards plus some of my own to create a deck that any player can use to check out the challenge. If you’re missing some cards from a deck please ask in the comments and I’ll do my best to find replacements from your collection so that you can have fun too! Hopefully I can build a deck that can beat the villain on both standard and expert. I’ll try to document any tweaks I made while playing the deck too.

Next up we have Ultron against War Machine and we see just how many drones Rhodes can take out with his Shoulder Cannon. I won my first Standard game and then lost my first Expert game on the second turn when awful combination of cards led to Ultron attacking me twice in a row and then dealing one additional damage to take down War Machine. Thankfully I came back for two resounding wins afterwards.

This wont be a quick one. You dont want to damage Ultron quickly here. The goal is to really take your time and control the board. If you play it really well as I did in my final game, Ultron will never get past the first main scheme. To this end you really want to look for 3 pieces early. Under Surveillance to buff the scheme to more than double its threshold, Beat Cop to stop the passive rise in threat and Shoulder Cannon to take down the drones without issue.Your other goal is to confuse Ultron with Professor X and your Sonic Rifle.

Once you get to this set up you should be home free. You can flip up and take out the drones and continue setting up your various allies to control side schemes brought out by One Way or Another. Then you can flip down again after confusing the villain and use Meditation to play down more Beat Cops, Quincarrier, Helicarrier, Upgraded Chassis, and more Sonic Rifles!

Crew Quarters will really put in work to heal you every time you flip down and its also important that you flip down every other turn to constantly build up Munitions Bunker. If you do this right, when you finally take down the first stage of Ultron, you'll immediately or very nearly immediately be able to take down the second stage as well!

This is definitely a slow fight but if you get control early, you really shouldn't have any issues. Just take your time and make sure to keep building up munitions bunker and confusing Ultron. I really enjoy War Machine and I know he's not the most loved hero in Marvel Champions so I hope you give him another shot.
