Iron Man - Alter Ego Justice

Iron Man needs to stay in his alter ego form for at least the first 3-4 turns to build up his suit, sometimes longer. How can you do this without threat being built up too much? Focus on justice cards that can be used in alter ego form. That means avoiding great Hero Action/Response cards such as For Justice!, Clear the Area or Skilled Investigator. Cards such as Foiled! and Emergency replaces them as the cost/benefit of these cards are similar and they can be played in alter ego! Foiled! has the potential to be the equivalent of 3 thwart for 0 cost.

Support cards such Beat Cop and Surveillance Team and the upgrade Counterintelligence are also great cards to allow you to stay in alter ego to build up your suit.

Once your suit is built... well no words are really required.
