This is a staple thwart, but you want to be mindful of how to get the most out of this event.

The modest cost can be paid for with just Genius or the Power of Justice.

Barring a double resource, you’ll want to run a generating card like Ingenuity (Genius trait), Quincarrier (Avenger trait), The X-Jet (X-Men trait), or Sense of Justice.

It pairs especially well with Overwatch, and it makes an easy combo to play because Overwatch can be attached on a previous turn and the event played on a later turn.

This card is fantastic as it serves multiple purposes! You can indefinitely block 3 minions from ever returning by sending them to jail. Or if you send your fourth minion to jail, you can send a random minion to another player to serve as its executioner. Very beneficial when playing as or alongside heroes like Thor, Rocket Raccoon, etc who are natural minion slayers or as heroes like Star-Lord who can take advantage of facedown encounters. I'm currently putting this into my Black Widow deck, because even if no one is running a minion slayer build, I can crush the released minion using her preparations. Also, it helps that every minion you send to jail removes a little bit of threat, assuming it has SCH.

I actually really like this card with Magik. Since she has a cheap weapon upgrade (Soulsword) which only has passive abilities and you aren't required to exhaust it for any effect it's the ideal weapon upgrade to pair with Fusillade. Plus Magik can play it from the top of her deck for only 1 cost.

Ignore the stale, janky ideas here, now there’s a few characters that can take the risk out of using Hulk to attack.

Star-Lord can use Smooth Talker to top-deck a card.

Domino has several ways to do the same: as a hero, as her alter ego, or with Pip the Pug.

And also Magik can see her top card at all times, overwrite it with a spell as alter ego, or use Limbo to swap it.

Go forth and SMASH!

Pinpoint is incredible for Miles Morales, who benefits significantly from getting extra uses out of his signature events. There's a reason this was printed in the same wave as Miles. The crazy thing about Pinpoint is they don't even take damage for using this power. They can just stick around all game and effectively double or triple the counts of your most powerful cards.
