It doesn't just apply to destroy decks lmao When you play Tribunal for example, whenever you get a perfect draw the opponent either retreats or they have some kind of tech card to disrupt your combo.
16:45 "I forgot about Venom [going to Asteroid M]. I'm a genius! I knew exactly what I was doing! I'm so smart, I didn't even realize what I was doing"
You know what sucks? Not having Knull, then it pops up in the shop, which costs R2000 here in South Africa, which is the equivalent of buying 105 loaves of bread
I don't want to backseat, or be "that guy", but I did have a thought going into the 14:00 minute game that, if I was going to stagger them like that, I was like "Hrm, you put the Agony in the known zone and the Niko in the other one in case the unknown messes up your plays, right?" ... And then you hit Wakanda and experienced notable agony and I just sort of nodded to myself. The timing was rather "chef's kiss" as they say. Also, yeah, as a decent rule of thumb for those less experienced, when staggering units to not fill stuff up, things you need to combo with are usually better placed in known locations in case of a Nowhere or Sanctum Sanctorum or, well, in this Destroy case, Wakanda. If it is important for you to be able to access it later, it's just generally "safer" to put it somewhere you know you should be able to do so in future. Obviously considerations can be deeper than this, it's not one sized fits all, but it's a good starting place.
I like Arnim Zola in this. Hitting the Knull if you can get it out early is crushing and even just a big Venom is great. Hulk Buster seems redundant with Agony now.
Was thinking of using Agony in a Zoo deck. Get it buffed in hand, or on the board with Marvel Boy/Kazar, play a card on T5, get buffed and get another space to play with.
I played Hulk Buster into Agony while not being sure if I could still merge Deadpool into agony after. And I was surprised that the buffed Agony does still merge into Deadpool.
@@richieagame503 6 if I remember correctly. 2 + 3 and then merged into Deadpool would be 6 before the first destroy. From my experience it's a fine card to throw into destroy, but not really anything really needed.
Just to help in the math in the first game, you told Agony was 1-16, but considered only Deadpool impact. Considering the 2 Venom eating for 1-8 and Knull eating at 2, 4 and 8 points, Agony was about 1-46 impact in the whole game.
The only upside to agony over hulk buster is she isn't confined to being an on reveal meaning cosmo can't stop her. She's good for nimrod/deadpool and for Shaw or any card that can make exact copies of themselves, but not much else
8:49 agony added 38 power in total. Because of the venom and knull power too. Someone check my math please 16 + 8 + ( 8 + 4 + 2) = 38 (Dpool) + (Venom) + (Knull)
Obviously WITH Agony, he had 80 power on his Deadpool. Without Agony he would be splitting Deadpool with only Hulk Buster totaling 64. 4-8-16-32 finishing off at 64 having a difference of 16. But Venom ate the xtra (which at this point is 8) so that doubled to 16.
I played Agent Venon, Blast and Arnim Zola to buff the Hulk buster, deadpool and Agony. Then would get a big Venom to split with Arnom Zola. I even threw in an Iron man to play Dead pool iron man final turn sometimes.
I think she is good to counter zemo, mirage and eats up yandu. Protection on doc oc and is a miss for cable. I think she is an include as a passive disrupt rather than an active card to focus a deck on
Regis could you possibly try building a deck around agony and scorn with Daken and or hope summers. I feel like it’s a good combo but I don’t know how to build it properly.
I feel like this is a good combo card for cards that double in power, or say "create copy with same power". e.g., Black Panther, Human Torch, Beta Ray Bill, Brood, Mr. Sinister Also, Namora decks?
I wonder if she might do better with a movement deck, specifically for human torch but possibly some other movement people Sebastian shaw seems like a good target for her too
18:00 If hulkbuster had merged with agony, she would not have merged with deadpool, right? She merges with a card after you play it, but she would be merging with herself in that case
As much as I like Deathlok for these Decks I wished they'd change him to an "Activate" effect instead "On Reveal". It would help a lot for some better curves!
So, no judgment, but in the game where he 'threw' the game to see the hulk buster/agony interaction, why dudnt he try to complete the scared timeline to get another buster/agony?
Well, wait, in the first game agony added sixteen to the Deadpool that then buffed the Knull by a lot more than sixteen, if it wasn’t a mirror match the advantage would have been huge no?
agony seems better in Phoenix force than a raw destroy deck agony can merge with multiple man, Deadpool or nimrod you can also merge agony with the Phoenix force after it merges allowing for better curve control/consistency
Am i wrong in thinking regis got lucky hulk buster chose deadpool and not agony? I feel like if hulk buster chose agony then it wouldn't have fused into deadpool to get the buffs right?
Destroy used to be my most played deck, but these days it just doesn’t do it for me. So reliant on early draws (need Deadpool, hulk buster, Nico destroy draw2), Wolverine and X23 bouncing around being too unpredictable. Not to mention it’s countered by literally every tech card (cosmo, armor, mobius, shadow king, shang, enchantress etc).
Unrelated to this video lol but I've had a lot of fun playing kang in high voltage, been playing a nimrod deck with skrull and Cosmo and kang is actually super good for knowing what the best play is and deck thinning since you're likely to draw him on a turn you can play him and draw another card
I mean in the first game Agony contributed more than just 16 power. But, it really wasn’t the difference after doing the math. 8 in Venom, 14 in Knull, and 16 alone. 38 power output with the doubling, but being around 100 more? Yup, not the difference in that game.
You said Agony gave you 16 power but that does not include the power she gave your venom and the extra power she gave your knull each time you destroyed the stuff that got extra power from her
Sorry but Agony only added 16 points directly to Deadpool. He (himself) would have been at 64 with only Hulk Buster. Without her, Venom would only have been at 40 and Knull would have been at 120
i just wanted to tell u that im a destroy deck master. 9 from 12 cards in my destroy deck are gold/ink with krackle.... and i splited Venom 35 times - he is not gold/ink krackle =/
I vote putting Agony in Ramp. Agony turn 2 Electro Turn 3 Or Symbiote Spiderman, Agony, then Forge in one lane, then Galactus. GMan gets forge buff. Agony merges with Gman. Activate Symbiote, trigger Gman things. 😂 Lol.
As for the current card database this deck will always be a mid deck…tier 2 I guess. It can pull of crazy amounts of power but at the same time can get you almost nothing. Its so Deadpool dependent which can give you lots of awkward games if you simply dont draw him or just too late on T4/5
“Every time I’m about to do something cool”
Welcome to playing destroy Regis
It doesn't just apply to destroy decks lmao
When you play Tribunal for example, whenever you get a perfect draw the opponent either retreats or they have some kind of tech card to disrupt your combo.
Destroy is one of the most consistent decks in the game. Try playing move.
As an avid Deadpool player, yes, the universe is constantly cooking up the worst possible way to ruin your combo
11:22 marvel snap is the weirdest marvel game because imagine seeing a squirrel be outfitted with the hulkbuster armor in the mcu
I'd watch it...
But it could happen) i love card design in marvel snap, heroes and their powers just feels right for their appearance in game
You call that funny? My 15 powered vulture no diffing galactus would be peak cinema in live action

"I forgot about Venom [going to Asteroid M]. I'm a genius! I knew exactly what I was doing! I'm so smart, I didn't even realize what I was doing"
That was me at 29:15! I was wondering why you were playing a basic looking Destroy deck lol. GG Regis.
Remember when they nerfed Forge because a one drop boosting Deadpool by 2 power was too strong. Pepperidge Farm remembers.
Playing high voltage almost 24 hours to get her is Agony.
Should've been here during Deadpool Diner
For a meh card welp, its free tho thats the plus point.
Still better than Deadpool's Diner.
@@ToniCiprianiX007 i am not really enjoy deadpool diner, i give up cassandra. Also, i was busy back then.
Luckily 24 hours is a choice you make given that you've got the entire week for it
25:47 “the WOLVERINE is the DIFFERENCE MAKER??” well…yeah, Regis. didn’t you see the movie? 😂

Save 3k tokens for him if you like destroy. It's worth it.
Im in the same boat. I've played since release and no knull, I'm praying for a series drop at this point haha
What? @@Mr_Casey12there were various spotlight caches with Knull.
Just buy token with golds every Tuesday.. I didn’t spend money to buy token/ gold and I managed to buy a few S5 cards using token..
@@phangbiaoyu5273 Will try this! Thanks a ton
Playing Deadpool destroy is what I imagine being a Met fan is like. It’s like, there’s always SOMETHING that ruins the dream.
As a Mets fan, you are 100% correct 😂
It'sh not always about da money, Shpida-man
I can’t help it. I just love destroy. I love how every action can make it straight cool. Knull and Zola is so old but it’s just so synergistic.
I don't want to backseat, or be "that guy", but I did have a thought going into the 14:00 minute game that, if I was going to stagger them like that, I was like "Hrm, you put the Agony in the known zone and the Niko in the other one in case the unknown messes up your plays, right?"

A truly good player just runs uatu
I like Arnim Zola in this. Hitting the Knull if you can get it out early is crushing and even just a big Venom is great. Hulk Buster seems redundant with Agony now.
True, Destroy could always use more flexibility and Agony is more flexible than HB in several ways. Zola is essential in a lot of situations.
A thought that kills me because I JUST got an Ink split and slapped cosmic black border on the custom card for my all ink destroy deck...
"My brain works on a level beyond my brain" - Regis 2024
Your thumbnail is something interesting... As always
Btw awesome video (I haven't finished seeing it yet)
Was thinking of using Agony in a Zoo deck. Get it buffed in hand, or on the board with Marvel Boy/Kazar, play a card on T5, get buffed and get another space to play with.
in zoo surely you want more cards out to power up Gilgamesh - agony wastes one of those slots, especially when there's so many good one cost cards
This was the least stoked I have seen Regis playing a deck ever lol. Even when he hit the nuts that first game he was like “Eh”
His reaction at 13:52 when he gets wakanda on turn two has me dead
"I knew exactly what i was doing 😂" love that moment
13:53 Bro, I am crying lmaaoooo
“My brain works on a level - above my brain.”
The wakanda reveal got me laughing so hard. I get it
Cool deck, bro. Thanks
If regis also added "ive never also watched the deadpool movies" Id feel disappointed
Want to see agony hulk buster Nico double herself and what happens. Or maybe black panther.
I played Hulk Buster into Agony while not being sure if I could still merge Deadpool into agony after. And I was surprised that the buffed Agony does still merge into Deadpool.
@@Eureca so he was 6 after that or 7 I forget.
@@richieagame503 6 if I remember correctly. 2 + 3 and then merged into Deadpool would be 6 before the first destroy. From my experience it's a fine card to throw into destroy, but not really anything really needed.

Regis I one day aspire to be as good at thumbnails as you someday. You are my role model for thumbnails man. 🙇♂️🙇♂️🙇♂️
16:25 100% believe that it’s what you intended. Like you didn’t even have to say it.
Destroy is insane I am really glad it is
You should try a Deadpool deck using agent venom, it makes him way more effective post turn 2 and agony could fit really well
The only upside to agony over hulk buster is she isn't confined to being an on reveal meaning cosmo can't stop her. She's good for nimrod/deadpool and for Shaw or any card that can make exact copies of themselves, but not much else
Human Torch would also be a possible thing
I figured she would be best with scarlet spider. turn 4 Gwenpool into turn 5 agony into scarelt spider, seems pretty legit to me
8:49 agony added 38 power in total. Because of the venom and knull power too. Someone check my math please
16 + 8 + ( 8 + 4 + 2) = 38
(Dpool) + (Venom) + (Knull)
i dont know if you should count the knull as they had a knull too. so it counters those power gains.
You forgot there were 2 Venom. 16 + 8 + 8 + (16+4+2). 1 power for 54 points, I guess
Obviously WITH Agony, he had 80 power on his Deadpool. Without Agony he would be splitting Deadpool with only Hulk Buster totaling 64. 4-8-16-32 finishing off at 64 having a difference of 16. But Venom ate the xtra (which at this point is 8) so that doubled to 16.
Another good destroy deck 👍
What a nice sand castle you got right there, lemme take it down
Arana does the same thing but on top of that, using arana to have deadpool drop on the same location as her gives more food to venom and carnage

Funny cause I remember a title similar to this from years ago 😂🔥
You can play that Spider-Man.That makes a clone of itself to another location with her
I played Agent Venon, Blast and Arnim Zola to buff the Hulk buster, deadpool and Agony. Then would get a big Venom to split with Arnom Zola. I even threw in an Iron man to play Dead pool iron man final turn sometimes.

19:05 u could have played all the cards right to sacred timeline, getting u a new hand at least.😅
A second deadpool would be wild
I feel like this is a good combo card for cards that double in power, or say "create copy with same power". e.g., Black Panther, Human Torch, Beta Ray Bill, Brood, Mr. Sinister
Also, Namora decks?
I wonder if she might do better with a movement deck, specifically for human torch but possibly some other movement people
Sebastian shaw seems like a good target for her too
18:00 If hulkbuster had merged with agony, she would not have merged with deadpool, right? She merges with a card after you play it, but she would be merging with herself in that case
Here's a question: When Agony merges, does she give her temporary power to the card she merges with? If so, she might be interesting in zoo. Maybe.
Agony is like... a card that we didn't really need. There's been a few cards recently that only fit into like 1 or 2 archetypes
Found Arañya doing the same thing turn 1.
What about some " buff your deck / hand " type deck with scarlet spyder ?
The only time I remember you playing Deadpool was with some sort of destory them deck with Shang Chi
As much as I like Deathlok for these Decks I wished they'd change him to an "Activate" effect instead "On Reveal". It would help a lot for some better curves!
So I prefer Arana over Hulkbuster. That T1 play is massive. Agony adds yet another T1 play, which is fantastic to get DP rolling.
So, no judgment, but in the game where he 'threw' the game to see the hulk buster/agony interaction, why dudnt he try to complete the scared timeline to get another buster/agony?
REGIS
CODY
Well, wait, in the first game agony added sixteen to the Deadpool that then buffed the Knull by a lot more than sixteen, if it wasn’t a mirror match the advantage would have been huge no?
agony seems better in Phoenix force than a raw destroy deck
agony can merge with multiple man, Deadpool or nimrod
you can also merge agony with the Phoenix force after it merges allowing for better curve control/consistency
Maybe agony, forge, torch, carnage, phoenix force is a line?
Thinking about the amount of money that was spent to get her in the first couple hours puts me in Agony
Have you decided to drop Pokebin? You haven't posted in ages there
Regis I am making a video what is your favorite marvel character
Am i wrong in thinking regis got lucky hulk buster chose deadpool and not agony? I feel like if hulk buster chose agony then it wouldn't have fused into deadpool to get the buffs right?
Agent Venom in this deck over agony
I'm so mad I missed getting Agony
Going to try agony in my multiple man move deck
Any replace for Nico Minoru? I have all the cards besides her in this deck.
Destroy used to be my most played deck, but these days it just doesn’t do it for me. So reliant on early draws (need Deadpool, hulk buster, Nico destroy draw2), Wolverine and X23 bouncing around being too unpredictable. Not to mention it’s countered by literally every tech card (cosmo, armor, mobius, shadow king, shang, enchantress etc).
Can you try Agony in a BUFF deck, with Sebastian Shaw, Captain Marvel, Scarlett Spider, Phastos, and the buff buddies ? Please 😚
i misunderstood. i thought she would merge another card with her so i can play Namora deck. apparently its just another hulk-buster
Unrelated to this video lol but I've had a lot of fun playing kang in high voltage, been playing a nimrod deck with skrull and Cosmo and kang is actually super good for knowing what the best play is and deck thinning since you're likely to draw him on a turn you can play him and draw another card
You forgot the power venom gained on the back of Agony in your math. You had two venoms, it all compounds. She added 48. I'll take a 1/48 all day
14:09 is so true
Isn't Arana just better as a 1 cost +2 to deadpool?
Take out death and add Agent Venom. I'm not sure if it's really good or not but I've been having a lot of fun with it
I’d consider dropping Wolverine for Zola if you’re going to play Agony as another wincon
In that first game, isn't agony more? Because you destroyed that amount of extra power that buffed up your knull?
Makes me sad he had the best play agony > hulk b > d pool + carnage with the follow up dead pool kill monger turn 4
arana is better than hulk buster think. more kill mornger target, more cost cutter for death more optional for turn 1 before deadpool
I mean in the first game Agony contributed more than just 16 power. But, it really wasn’t the difference after doing the math. 8 in Venom, 14 in Knull, and 16 alone. 38 power output with the doubling, but being around 100 more? Yup, not the difference in that game.

Yes, Limbo games are insane. That said, Magik is horrible in destroy, t3, t4 and t5 has to be destroy turns, there is no energy for Magik sadly.
If I play Hulk Buster on agony, will she still activate on the next card i pay there?
She might not be the best card, but it’s one that you feel might be necessary in a later meta.
I like her in multi man or any deck with agent venom
They should have just made Hulk Buster “activate” and given Agony some other ability
My Deadpool deck is basically the same except take out Agony and Deathlock and replace em with Arnim and Nova 👌
15:03 This answered my question. Welp ig Agony is useless for Galactus then
Sorry but Agony only added 16 points directly to Deadpool. He (himself) would have been at 64 with only Hulk Buster. Without her, Venom would only have been at 40 and Knull would have been at 120
Gonna be good with lasher
i just wanted to tell u that im a destroy deck master. 9 from 12 cards in my destroy deck are gold/ink with krackle.... and i splited Venom 35 times - he is not gold/ink krackle =/
I've been playing a 6 cost only deck in high voltage
Should’ve put Trib in the deck W video
Or maybe make it a movement deck I know venom and death lock seem good but it’ll Better as an all around no knull idk what else to put but still.
Isnt it just 1 cost hulk buster?
It irrationally bugs me that there are zero variants for Agony.
I vote putting Agony in Ramp.
Agony turn 2
Electro Turn 3
Or Symbiote Spiderman, Agony, then Forge in one lane, then Galactus.
GMan gets forge buff. Agony merges with Gman. Activate Symbiote, trigger Gman things. 😂
Lol.
Agony was a 1/2. Ramblestilskin. It wasnt effectively nothing.
Regis let agony be an excuse to play scarlet spider (aka the greatest card of all time)
As for the current card database this deck will always be a mid deck…tier 2 I guess. It can pull of crazy amounts of power but at the same time can get you almost nothing. Its so Deadpool dependent which can give you lots of awkward games if you simply dont draw him or just too late on T4/5
