Captain America - Emerald Jem

"The world is changing and we're all just trying to keep up."

Hey all! Leo Fitz is busy with Nick Fury, at Con of Heroes '25, but we've got Jemma Simmons!

I realized that 4 Protection decks was not enough for the Con, so I decided to build a Cap deck, but with a little twist. I wanted to make use of Jemma and tech while still intercepting attacks for other players. Cap's Repurpose has a purpose, and that's to finish off the villain!

So Many Levels

• Perfect Defense || Desperate Defense and Never Back Down combined with Armored Vest and Captain America's Shield aid in our perfect defense strategy to trigger Unflappable.
• Tech Repurpose || Jemma helps pay for Energy Barriers and Forcefield Generators, and doesn't require you to be Alter-Ego to use!
• Change of Fortune || Electrostatic Armor and Captain America's Shield aid us in triggering CoF, typically against minions. You won't be doing this every turn, but you can coordinate the effort with your teammates.
• Defend the Table || You're "I Can Do This All Day!" gives you the freedom to manually defend for another each round and still have an activation on your turn. But more importantly, You have Preemptive Strike to make you the defender when another player is attacked, weakening that attack and letting it crash against your protective tech. Of course, Desperate Defense and Never Back Down help here too through either readying you for another defense, or stunning the villain and preventing another attack.

Maybe Cap is trying to do too many things here, but I like how that reflects his struggle to adapt to new technology. I'm also hoping that Repurpose will give the team an extra boost to push through the final villain stage in the end game.

I hope to throw a shield in front of you at the 'Con!

Peace.
