Optimal Victoria Hand Deck

This card-generation deck centers around the synergistic power of Victoria Hand and Devil Dinosaur. The core includes: Quinjet, Mirage, Frigga, Valentina, Cosmo, The Collector, Agent Coulson, Agent 13, Kate Bishop, and Moon Girl.

Flexible slots (Agent 13, Kate Bishop, Frigga) can be substituted with Iron Patriot, Mystique, or Speed, depending on your preference.

Victoria Hand Deck Synergies

• Victoria Hand's Buff: Powers up cards generated in your hand.
• Card Generators: Agent Coulson, Agent 13, Mirage, Frigga, Valentina, Kate Bishop, and Moon Girl generate cards to maximize Victoria's effect. Frigga and Moon Girl also duplicate key cards for added disruption or buffs.
• Quinjet's Cost Reduction: Makes playing generated cards more efficient.
• The Collector's Scaling: Strengthens with each generated card.
• Cosmo's Protection: Shields Victoria Hand and Devil Dinosaur from enemy attacks.
• Devil Dinosaur: The win condition, ideally played after Moon Girl or with multiple generated cards in hand.

Note: Some players report Victoria Hand may buff enemy-generated cards or cards that change sides. This needs clarification to determine if it's a bug or intended functionality.

Effective Gameplay Strategies

1. Energy Management: Balance card generation and energy expenditure. A full hand maximizes Devil Dinosaur's potential, but efficient energy use and strategic turn skipping are crucial.
2. Strategic Deception: Use randomly generated cards as decoys to mislead your opponent.
3. Ongoing Lane Protection: Protect the Victoria Hand lane (often paired with Devil Dinosaur) using Cosmo to counter tech cards like Enchantress.

Alternative Discard Deck

Victoria Hand also finds a place in refined discard decks. A strong lineup includes: Helicarrier, MODOK, Morbius, Scorn, Blade, Apocalypse, Swarm, Corvus Glaive, Colleen Wing, Lady Sif, and The Collector.

Countering Victoria Hand

Super Skrull is an effective counter, particularly useful against both Victoria Hand and Doctor Doom 2099 decks. Shadow King and Enchantress offer further counterplay; Shadow King removes buffs from a lane, while Enchantress disables Ongoing effects. Valkyrie can disrupt power distribution in key lanes.

Is Victoria Hand Worth It?

Yes, Victoria Hand is a valuable card. Her consistent buffs and adaptability to multiple archetypes (card-generation and discard) make her a strong addition to any collection. While her effectiveness relies somewhat on RNG, her overall power level justifies the investment.
