this game is HARD lol. I wish there were more of the standard villain cards so I could have more than one villain ready to go. I haven't messed around with deck building yet. I'm playing solo, and that threat can build up QUICK. even taking a single turn as your alter ego is a giant risk, a single 'Advance' card showing up can easily add 5-6 threat in a turn. I've had some VERY short games.
Even beating Rhino with Ms. Marvel's default deck took a few runs until I got the hang of holding back from attacking until I had more of an 'engine' in place.
Feeling a little more confident with a couple wins under my belt, I went up against Klaw with Black Panther (Protection) and got 2-turned, then had another go and was doing pretty well got to phase 2, but my cards started getting bad and I was spending everything I could just to stay alive while the side scheme's acceleration kept piling up the threat twice as fast as I could deal with it.
I feel like maybe the scheme limits should have been more like "2 + (6 per person)" rather than just "6 per person" because of how fast threat can blow up in a single turn!
