i wanted to try an intellect Beyonder based deck... i went with an 8 and negate as the backbone. typically Mr. Fantastic gets hosed without team defense with his teammate special, with Beyonder and him in the front line, it can be teamwide now at no cost. :) i could swap and try these?? Bastion, Leader, Mojo, Moleman, Shadowking, Puppetmaster... i would maybe like to get Henry Pym into the lineup as well... but i think i would have to swap X-Babies for a 3 stat character that could fit the group sum at 72... it doesn't seem that viable because running Intellect i would have a character without much defense. unless i ran Morph to strictly revive my frontline and sacrifice him. i am split between Shadowking and Reyes, both have great specials... but i am leaning towards Reyes for natural 8 defense.

I ran this team and I kept losing Mr F and that also drops Beyonder's grid. Team works or ally + FE chains rained on him faster than Reyes could heal/ defend. Breadmaster ran Mr F with jubilee to DB teamworks and kept him in reserve with his draw 3. I'm curious what kind of power pack he ran cuz no player backed another but beyonder started at a nice 6678
hmm yeah thanks for advice. i may just swap Reyes out for Shadowking... i don't need her that much really.. this will get my better defense in the long term... and if they do overwhelm me and kill Mr. F, Beyonder is still going to be at 7 Int, not 6 Int in Reyes case.
