Send one protected or evasive attacker while the rest of the team supports it and guards against the return attack.
Send one protected or evasive attacker while the rest of the team supports it and guards against the return attack.
Commit when repeated useful cards and enough support make a complete deck in these colors.
Four checks while you draft
Can I affect the board before the payoff?
An attack-alone boost lets a single evasive or resilient attacker trade up while the Agent stays back.
Do my actual cards enable this plan?
Equip Spy Kit to Black Widow, then attack with her alone. First strike plus deathtouch makes blocking difficult, and the Equipment untaps her.
Can I stop their strongest play and finish a stalled game?
Send one protected or evasive attacker while the rest of the team supports it and guards against the return attack.
Choose the missing job before another reward that needs it.
The key card is present but its support is thin.
Prioritize useful support such as Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. or S.H.I.E.L.D. Spy Kit.
Equip Spy Kit to Black Widow, then attack with her alone. First strike plus deathtouch makes blocking difficult, and the Equipment untaps her.
Your deck already enables the plan but is losing the early turns.
Take a castable early creature or efficient answer before a second expensive payoff.
Adding a second attacker turns off attack-alone rewards. Compare the two combat lines before declaring attackers.
The support is missing
Favor independently useful creatures and interaction if the narrow support does not arrive.
Repeated useful cards are clues, not proof that the colors are open.
Adding a second attacker turns off attack-alone rewards. Compare the two combat lines before declaring attackers.
Use removal before combat damage to punish concentration on one creature. Exile or toughness reduction can bypass some forms of protection.

Archangel of Thune 3WWEvery life-gain event grows your entire team. Lifelink supplies its own trigger, and other small life gains can turn a wide board into a lethal attack.
Captain Marvel, Earth's Protector 3WWFlash, flying and lifelink can reverse a race. Seven total mana lets you cast her and use the discounted power-up for lasting protection on that turn.
Doctor Doom 4BBThree bodies and repeated cards give immediate and continuing value. Keep an artifact creature or Plan to maintain his indestructible, and watch the life paid each end step.
Elektra, Daughter of the Hand 2BBHer enter trigger destroys an opposing creature with power three or less, whether cast normally or with sneak. An evasive attacker enables the discount and lets you reuse the returned creature later.

|---|---|---|
| When Black Widow, Double Agent is already in your pool, pair useful support such as Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. with the early play or answer your deck still lacks. Two rewards alone do not supply the support. | With one pick, fill the missing early play, answer or support card before adding another narrow payoff. The plan must work without drawing its key card. | Compare complete builds from the cards you opened. Keep the castable curve and interaction even if the draft theme is only partly supported. |
