The idea for this deck was originally to build a martial artist themed Rogue deck (Hi-Yah, Y'all!), but when I started looking at the card pool I realized how great Blindspot would be for Rogue. Touched is an upgrade, so you can consistently confuse the villain with Blindspot. But to get consistent confuses in play, we would need to find a way to heal Blindspot, and this is where Game Time comes in to play. Attach Honorary X-man and Mission Training to Blindspot, and now he can heal easily and also has a 3 THW. Get stick in to play, and we can boost that THW up to 4. Or, if we have Touched on Blindspot, we can boost one of Rogue's basic abilities.
However, I really wanted another target for the extra Mission Training and Honorary cards I included, and then thought that Hulk with Honorary and Mission Training would complement the thwarting in this deck. So this gives us Blindspot for confuses and THW, Hulk for damage (especially late game), and Rogue for whatever is needed. Of course we want to get our allies in to play early (or get them back if they are taken out), so we also are going to run a couple chance encounters.
We are boosting Rogue's basic thwart and this means taking some hits to the chin so that she can still make use of her basic activations. To help her do this, we are playing Making an Entrance to help with healing. This, Energy Transfer, and the ability to go AE with confuses are meant to keep her healthy.
There are only a few allies here, and we ideally want to keep all three in play for Superpowered Adaptation. Blindspot will let us pull back our one Crisis Averted, Gambit gets our signature events, and Hulk gets us a game time, which is great for ending the game!
Rogue's kit is expensive, so we have X-Jet, Helicarrier and Moira, but also Ingenuity, which she can play if she touches Blindspot. I don't see this as a "turbo thwart for a 4 player game" deck, but should be able to provide good damage and thwart.
