if you're not locked in on which homemade specials you use for Blink, there's also a BP (Infiltration Artist) and an MT (Portal) out there that can be played from Reserve.  sorry, but i didn't feel like taking the time to find them all over again to repost them.  i'm pretty sure they were both on this site somewhere.

i too have been watching The Gifted.  IMHO while it's not Xtraordinary, i'm still giving it the benefit of the doubt.  it's definitely better put-together than Agents of SHIELD was in its first season.  (though Shield has gotten better, and Inhumans wasn't bad.)  your OP team hits the nail on the head.

I've been watching it too. Hope they move along, kinda bored with them sitting around in that building all the time. Has potential though.

i've enjoyed all the shows so far, some things could be better. Legion was cool too.

i was using some of the specials for Blink i found on the overpower reboot list. i can't seem to find the specials from the overpower power balance set. my cards are currently in storage ha =[

right now im finalizing the deck and just trying to pinpoint what battlesite i want to utilize :)

justa

Legion was f'ed up beyond the max.  i couldn't tell what was really happening from what was only mental construct, which i think was what was intended.  but the representation they had of Shadow King helped me get over the mind trips.

Nice deck. I love themed stuff!

I've watched the first few episodes. I like it better than Agents or Inhumans. Of course I've always been an X-Fan.

Zer0evil

I haven't seen Inhumans yet but I really liked Agents and Carter. The DC shows also have some good episodes here and there.

Tussin

yea i would recommend watching Agents of Shield before Inhumans so you can understand the climate and references :)

After the first episode of Inhumans I felt like rooting for Maximus. Marvel has never quite hit the right note for their TV shows with me. Movies are awesome but for small screen I much prefer DC.

Flash is the best in my opinion, always a winner. The first 2 seasons of Arrow were spectacular with 3 being good at times too. I quite enjoyed the 2nd half of season 5 also. Legends of Tomorrow has some awesome episodes too.

Zer0evil

Yeah I really like most of the DC shows.  I've seen all of AOS up to current, should I watch Inhumans before the new season of AOS comes out?

Tussin

if you finished season 4 for Agents of Shield, i would say yes you can watch Inhumans now. i haven't seen what AoS season 5 will be, so i can't say what would be best. but it does work good now, i guess depending on the scenario of season 5 will determine where it falls best. if it goes into space? or tries to connect to the outer cosmos/universe now?

from the promos i've seen, the next season of AoS will be Starjammers & the Brood.

Zer0evil

Really? Will be interesting to see how that goes.

What? Starjammers and the Brood!   I might have to start watching again.

justa

from the commercial i saw, i thought i recognized Corsair, Ch'od, and a Brood or Broodling (not sure which).  but looking at the imdb casts, the Kree are the only character names that i recognize.  so who knows for sure?  (they try to keep a lid on stuff like that.)
