Phoenix Mind Control

A 4 player build for Expert Magneto, themed around as much mind control as possible. The assumption is that I won't be taking too many attacks, and will be able to use Toughness, Telekinetic Shield, or HP to absorb the ones I do - flipping down to heal/gain more power counters will not be a bad thing in early game due to Phoenix's high THW. Rogue will be doing a lot of work, and Warpath will help me spend power counters when I want to become UNLEASHED, after I've set up. With Taunt and Hidden Base in place, setup should be quick, so even though Dark Phoenix is a concern, the Stepford Cuckoos take one of the two ways to play it off the board, and I should have the juice to take Dark Phoenix out at that point in the game with minimal help from my teammates (but also: teammates just in case!).

Other than that, recycle those identity-specific events and upgrades with Mutant Education, especially Mind Control, and gain card draw from someone else's X-Mansion.
