The genius of Peter Parker and Cindy Moon and the street smarts of Matt Murdock and Jessica Jones combine for the greatest investigative team of any time or place.

Or, at least, of this time, and of this part of New York.

• Don't forget that First Aid can heal allies: all three of them are good targets, but of course Peter Parker most of all.

• You should always have a side scheme ready for Chance Encounter, which is another way to "heal" your allies by just getting them back into your hand to play again with your typical cash flow.

• If you're playing multiplayer, consider whether you yourself are the best target for Heroic Intuition or not. You may be! With Organic Webbing, Heroic Intuition and Surveillance Specialist gets you to 4 THW and you can ready up to twice a turn. However, if there's someone else with 2 THW who could Heroic Intuition and Surveillance Specialist, you'd rather have Combat Specialist.

• Don't forget to keep an eye out for the best time to use Overwatch (which should be played on the main scheme): that may not be from one of your own basic thwarts, it may be from another player in multiplayer, or it may be from Jessica Jones, and of course sometimes you'll hit it with Crisis Averted which feels awesome, especially when that 6 threat from Overwatch clears a player side scheme in 2-player.

• Prioritize Spider Reflexes fairly highly so that your allies don't have to defend for you.

That's about it, have fun!

Note: Investigative Journalism would fit the theme; you could sub it in in place of maybe Upside the Head if you'd prefer it.

Was there a particular thematic idea behind running only one copy of everything?

@Redbear64 Great question. Not a thematic reason exactly, but “singletons” is a self-imposed constraint I’ll often use when I’m deck building, and in this case I wasn’t thinking much about it, it just kind of happened by habit. I think mechanically there’s no card I actually want to run more than one of in this case. Thematically, if I’m going for a theme-strong deck like in this case, I do personally find singletons feels more thematic or cinematic because each card feels more like a story or “event” than if there’s multiple copies.
