In this part of the video, the speaker introduces Valentina, a new card in the game called “Snap,” which costs two energy and has three power. Valentina’s unique ability summons a six-cost card at a reduced cost of four energy but with reduced power by three. The speaker then evaluates various six-cost cards based on how well they synergize with Valentina’s ability, categorizing them from F tier (worst) to C tier (mediocre).
Key points include:
– F tier contains cards like Apocalypse, Hela, and Living Tribunal, which don’t synergize well and aren’t useful in most scenarios.
– Ultron is also rated poorly because playing him off-curve loses value.
– C tier includes cards like Arnim Zola, Heimdall, Null, Thanos, and Helicarrier, which have some potential but are limited by specific conditions and lower power.
The speaker emphasizes the situational usability and strategic value of each card in conjunction with Valentina’s ability.
