Snitches get Stitches

Snitches get Stitches

This deck turns what Thor wants to do (get minions) into threat removal. It's primarily built around 3 cards:

• Infiltration. It's safer than Defender of the Nine Realms because you name the number of cards you'll discard, and getting a minion isn't a cost of removing threat. On the other hand, you might not get a minion!
• Informant to turn that minion into a "snitch" (and Agent Coulson can find you one of these when he enters play)
• Quake to give them "stitches"

Defeating minions also sends them to The Raft to give you some additional threat removal and potentially a future minion-drop (although is 7 games I've only hit the limit on The Raft once), and triggers Interrogation Room.

Vigilante Training can shuffle Infiltration back into your deck when you flip down (but sometimes it'll target Foiled!), which is fairly safe with:

• Professor X (the only source of Villain Confuse in the deck)
• Foiled! It's almost as good as a Confuse (almost), but I feel fine flipping down if I have one in hand.
• Informant

The deck also uses the "Loki Combo":

• Show of Empathy and
• Face the Past

Also, Vivian is a backup to blank Loki if needed!

Team Building

Team-Building Exercise works on several cards:

• Lady Sif (ASGARD)
• Manifold (AVENGER)
• Quake (AVENGER)
• Vivian (AERIAL)
• Asgard (ASGARD)
• God of Thunder (ASGARD)
• Mjolnir (ASGARD)
• Thor's Helmet (ASGARD)

Some thoughts

Because this deck leans into Thor's schtick, it's slow in scenarios which don't have a lot of minions. Fortunately, Infiltration doesn't rely on minions, they're just a bonus!

As long as no-one else wants to play a Player Side Scheme, Show of Empathy is EXCELLENT in Expert because you put it in play early and leave it there to foil Masterplan. Show of Empathy could have a million threat on it and it wouldn't matter because you never actually clear it!
