This deck is the fruit of listening to The Shadow of the Cast episode with special guest boomguy talking about preparing for convention play. I've never been to an MC convention and never played with more than one other actual person, so this is not a definitive deck but more of a proof of concept.

In the podcast episode, a talking point was playing a deck that supports the other players at the table. One suggestion was to include Alliance-traited cards. Who better to bring one for everyone than Adam Warlock.

This deck has the Avengers/Guardian alliance cards in each aspect: As One!, Problem Solvers, Joining Forces, and Stand Together. The basic Cosmic Alliance is included for kicks. Sorcerer Supreme is here to increase hand size to help pay for these cards.

Also in the mix are two allies in each aspect, one Avenger and one Guardian. Since the alliance cards usually require exhausting characters, these low-cost allies help meet this without asking other players to exhaust their hero or a key ally. Additionally, allies were chosen that are not currently heroes or signature allies in other kits in order to avoid violating the unique character rule on key characters.

I would toy with bringing ONLY this Adam Warlock deck to the convention. I'd bring along the X-Men/X-Force alliance cards and appropriate allies to be able to fit in at more tables. Another possibility is to remove one event in each aspect to include supports to play on other players (e.g. Boot Camp, Command Center, Skilled Investigator, Hangar Bay, Ops Center). If someone else is playing a Guardian hero, +Knowhere could be replaced with a Helicarrier.
