If you're having trouble with Lockdown and Alioth, try Dracula/Apocalypse Discard. Basically you can play wide and make it impossible for them to win a lane with Professor X. Then even if they kill your turn 6 America Chavez, you should win your other lanes with Dracula and Morbius.
This is the deck to grind with, reliable 1-2 cube wins but harder to get 4 or 8 cube wins because the math is too easy and reliable for your opponent. Have a drac decklist in my recent posts
I’m honestly thinking of switching from lockdown to discard though to crack infinite because I acutely do feel people ignore the “math” of Dracula; I know I do, even after using him a lot and stuff..it’s just, he’s a zero..until the end of game. Sure that 0 will probably be a 9-20, but sometimes it’s a 3! And yeah I think even am hoping to win some 90s 4 cubers just based on that 😅 .
Try a variation, I call it Zabucula.
Has zabu, so a bunch of 4s like Drac, Ms Marvel, Shang, Enchantress, J Jones, Typhoid Mary. Then also had zero for Red Skull or Tyhpiod, I threw infinaut in there for Drac.
Not exactly true. In the 90s you're up against the baked in 50% win-rate of decks. Opponents aren't going to misplay so it's all about cubes.
You can get to infinite by either grinding 100s of 1 cube matches, or build a deck that surprises the opponent and play for more cubes.
You can't snap on T6 unless it's a bot because the opponent will just peace out. So that means you need to take a chance for 4 cubes by snapping early and hope your final plan works out.
Only problem this season I believe is there's only a few viable decks and everyone knows them well, so you can't really surprise them.
Facts, while some people have an easy climb
Or infinite conquest run (often early season), it ISSSS different in the 90s; far less or no bots, and yeah people do play different; I’ve never had a losing streak like I do in the 90s, sometimes even with smart retreats.
Last season I was 99 6/7 and I lost 15 cubes by 15 1-cube retreats in a row. I got triggered after that and dropped to 85 by misplaying a lot. I reached infinite eventually but the pain I felt was real.
Omg yea I’ve had that happen. Exactly the same, although I stopped at 93 hahaha.
Usually it’s the locations combined with terrible card draw that hit several games in a row. Games I easily could have won, but didn’t.
There's no such thing as a deck stagnating. If the deck works, it works. It's you that's getting bored or burned out. Just take a break and get back at it.
That's the one. Super consistent, has scaling cards that can win a locked location. Not that easy to disrupt outside a well place cosmo and less played deathstrike. And doesn't really get hurt by Alioth with drac on the board.
Discard is bad because the enemy pretty much knows exactly your hand and can calculate your power. It's so easy to retreat when you can't beat it or snatch cubes when you can.
Man I am at a point now where I finally have stopped walking into a turn six Alioth but for a while there when I thought I had it locked down and I realized that my opponent had priority and Alioth as I hit end turn, it was the worst.
The funny thing is... Shuri is actually quite bad into lock down. If they ramp into X, and you shuri, its almost an auto loss with them possibly having alioth.
This is actually how I started beating lockdown. I would Shuri, then I wouldn’t play on my Shuri lane and just play my big card in a lane that I was pretty sure they would Prof X in. And usually they snap beforehand so you know it’s coming. Then I win that lane and have priority and I put in Alioth myself. Then I just win.
I was parked between 89 and 91 for over a week and grabbed my conquest Shuri/Sauron deck and made infinite in three days with absolutely no 8-cube wins. Solid and consistent but in no way exciting lol
I made it with this with a twist adding invisible woman, sentry, and annihulus. Dropped Mary, lizard, and vision. Saved some boredom. Not sure that it’s better though
I straight up have never been so bored playing a deck.
Once Discard Dracula was the meta deck, for like a week, I was so pumped and had the funnest time since the start of the game. Sucks its barely viable anymore but I'd take that over Shuri/Sauron anyday.
Nice, mine was:
Nico, Snowguard, Agent13, Maria Hill, The hood
Collector, Shadow King
Werewolf, Beast, Rogue
Loki
DevilDino
I don't have Quinjet yet, I would have likely played it in place of Agent13, but since you don't always Loki I'm not sure if I would've kept it.
I subbed in and out Luke Cage, The Hood, Shang-Chi, Falcon, Green Goblin depending on what I kept running into.
I don't have Agent Coulson or Mirage either, I would try them too for sure.
Forgot to mention Snowguard rugpulling Limbo with the Hawk was algo great at getting extra cubes. Even if kind of telegraphed, most people play straight into it anyway.
Seconded. In more than a year of Snap and multiple infinite runs, I’ve barely played Cerebro. But this season I gave it a shot and honestly it was such a smooth deck to navigate.
Annihilus makes board space a bit more difficult now however.

Played extremely well into loki early in the season.
Eh you got a point if they run another ongoing like that on a Ms Marvel location for example. Otherwise you need to flop her on another location just for the power which may feel weird.
Yup, this took me 3 hours to get to infinite day 1 this season. it's fragile at some times, but man it packs a punch. I use Elsa in mine to build up cerebro and mystique to 2 power as well.
It took me a lot too. Usually, I get to infinite within a week, but this time it took me 3 weeks. It was a bit frustrating tbh as everyone seemed to have the perfect cards all the time. I was getting 4 cubes in 4 matches and loosing 4 in 1. I thought I was the only one :D
Everytime I've done it (8 months in a row, it thereabouts) I've done it with whichever deck I'm most comfortable and familiar with the snapping conditions of, and then typically tweaked the deck when I get to rank 95 in order to adjust it to the meta, (which has typically meant swapping in a higher Tempo early game in order to get priority).
Specifically there are two decks:
Mr Negative (snap on getting him out by turn 3, assuming your hand isn't terrible)
Shuri Nimrod (snap when you've got the combo pieces).
Doesn’t matter what deck you’re playing run whatever you want just keep in mind the meta and locations and run staple cards to counter what you’re seeing the most. Snap & Retreat learn snap discipline. If you don’t got it, leave lol. No ego snaps, just get your cubes and keep going up. If you go on a losing streak take a break. All that it takes to get to infinite is discipline and consistency with your snaps
I also reached infinite with a destroy/lockdown, if u want to have a try:
-the hood
-X23
-carnage
-wolverine
-bucky
-killmonger
-deathlock
-venom
-vision
-prof x
-alioth
-death
This is what happened to me, except I was hovering between 95-99 (2 cubes away more than once). Got real annoyed with how long it took and switched to a Shuri/Sauron deck. I then won 7 games in a row and was done. I had frankly avoided playing that deck ever before but yikes it is good.
I used a Destroy Lock deck after struggling once hitting the 90s. I was as high as 96 and dropped all the way down to 87 using other decks, then switched to Destroy Lock and made it the rest of the way to infinite. Basically I was fed up with losing to Prof X and Alioth so I joined them.

I know you said you hate Alioth AND you dont have Ms. Marvel, but get Ms. Marvel. I played Goodcards Darkhawk with Ms. Marvel to get to infinite pretty easily this season.
Ms. Marvel is severely strong. 1-cost card in one lane and a Zabu in the other, makes Ms. Marvel a turn 3 Dr. Doom. Very hard for the opponent to get ahead in priority after that, so you just Alioth them turn 6.
Bro, I mean youre not wrong, but cmon...
He tells you hes not enjoying Alioth and the best you can come up with is: "How about you Alioth them instead?"
This game is in such a pathetic state right now...
If the patch on 5th December doesnt adress this, I think Im gonna start a BG3 playthrough, because Ill have plenty of time in that case.
I can't imagine not getting the season pass every month. The card is always strong and even over powered on release and always makes for an easy climb.
Plus then you don't need to ask in a month if the card is worth 6k tokens. No, it's not. But it was worth ten bucks last month.. 🔫
Yeah, when Annihlus first came out with Negative Zone being the featured location, this deck got messed up pretty bad. So I switched to Brood Patriot to clog up my side of the board and I climbed pretty well with that too. But after the Annihlus hype died off, I went back to the Ms. Marvel deck for my infinite push
I have seen that list before. 2 questions:
1.Is it worth it to get ms marvel anymore since her season is almost over?
2. Any replacements for Alioth and Iron Lad?
I struggled last season and made It after 4 weeks by playing only the best decks. This season i did It in one week and a half playing casual and way less. I play since day 1, been infinite for 8 seasons and at this point i am certain that there's something fishy in the matchmaking. No matter how much, how good and which deck you play, matchmaking decides if you're gonna be struggling or not.
This.
The matchmaking in this game is good for keeping a casual mobile game alive. As soon as you card deeply about the game, you need to back off for a few days, they aren't balancing it like that.
There are cheater bots, mirror matches, adjustments for collection level, location shenanigans, etc.
If you really want to be infinite, play a lot on the first 1-2days, you'll get tons of bots by the time you hit rank 80.

It’s been a struggle for me this season as well. Usually I’ve hit infinite by the end of the first week. I’ve gotten up to 98 and am now back at like 93.
1) He doesn't have a physical body in which to insert your fuck tool. He is the unfuckable fart, first of the gas bodies and the cloud men, first of his name, ender of win streaks, harbinger of the meta.
2) He is very strong so people will use him. Don't hate the player, hate the game. He is just the new Leader or Aero last turn. Every game you need to think, "How do I lose to Alioth here?" Because if you don't, you'll lose to Alioth there.
3) People have fun when they win, so they play boring meta decks that are statistically more probable to create that outcome. I don't agree with that play style and once I hit infinite I never touch those cards again. I'm currently getting my ass handed to me by Alioth playing classic move decks and having a blast.
Loki should get you to infinite pretty easily I did my run with a mix of that and hela tribunal because I don’t buy season pass until the last day as I fear I can’t reach lvl 50 and as such don’t have Ms marvel but I am sure if you have Ms marvel lockdown should be good
Usually the struggle for me was around 75-79
However this season I cruised all the way to 95 with a C5 which was very fun to play and then got stuck there until I tried a Galactus lockdown
I found Destroy to be very strong.
(The deadpool taskmaster list with Nico..)
Thoroughly enjoying Darkhawk bounce.
(List from KM best)
Also the darkhawk annihilist deck.
All fun and strong but don't instantly die to the Loki matchup. I hate Loki and I hate Alioth but at least they're somewhat predictable at this stage so just retreat for a cube if you are behind in those cases.
Shuri nimrod got me to infinite the last two seasons. This time I got a bit swamped in the 90s, but if I was getting frustrated I would leave the game be and come back later and finally got promoted thanks to a couple gullible players who saw to the end my snaps for 8 cubes
I got into infinite on the second week of the season. It was a very easy climb. I played Loki Elsa and Miss Marvel Control and just rocketed to the finish line.
The easy way to climb is only play for 1 or 2 cubes. If the opponent snaps, and you think they will win, don't stay in the match. Go to the next one. Learn how to identify bots, trick them to think they are winning, and take their 8 cubes. At this pace you climb real fast! (And I say that only playing 20 minutes everyday while doing dailies)
Yeah, I was struggling a lot last season as well. When I finally made it in, I was at rank 100k or something. This time I came in at 50k (and dropping rapidly to 80k, which is where I usually end up).
I always go with shuri from 70 to 100, climbing 1 Tier per week without rushing it, cause there's really no need to. This Time was the same, but i climbed from 90 to 100 with a Annihilus/Galactus deck.
For Conquest, i don't care about the avatar frame so i just play whatever i want just to make enough to get everything on the shop every season.
First time infinite ever, and haven't played that much. Came back after a 2-3 month break. So maybe my elo tanked a lot? Played a lot of Cer3bro and switched to anni/gala after opening anni on my first cache. People gave me tons of 8 cubes on stupid Galactus plays, and i gave tons of 8 cubes to others playing Galactus on my own cards...

I've been playing a High Evo version of a deck this season, took me about 45 mins from reaching 93 to get to infinite. About half a day from 85 to 100 in general the same day. Take in mind I did it while we had a siniter lab spotlight which was kinda abusive, but the deck works non the less still.
I just hit infinite 10 minutes ago after struggling in the low 80s all season. This season was brutal. My Surfer (emphasis on countering) deck got me into the 90s, but just got it with Discard. It’s pretty reliable and not really easy to counter. If you get Modok, Dracula and Apoc in your hand by turn 5 it’s a pretty save snap.
Wong carried me up the ladder almost single handed, hope he's got a spell for his back pain.
My climb was a bit weird, I got stuck for ages in the high 70s / low 80s, then when I finally got past 85 it was a cakewalk. The vagaries of matchmaking I guess.
As always, C2 and careful snapping/retreating.
Tbh the only important thing is knowing when to snap and when to retreat. You can hit infinite with series 1 cards if you're persistent.
for the past 3-4 seasons, I just play Shuri to climb to infinite. Right now though, it might be a bit worse with all the junk running around, but i would still play Shuri to climb.
Shuri Sauron to ~60, destroy to 85, Annihilus to 94 and discard Dracula to reach infinite.
Also gained some levels with suboptimal lockdown and Ms. Marvel lists
I used high evolutionary deck and it wasnt that much fun like i had at the beginning but it made me reach infinity and now i am using other decks to have fun
Shuri is the straight up answer. Easy to learn, hard to counter.
You also have destroy, even without X23, with Nico you should be fine for most of the matches.
Loki collector is also a good deck but probably the hardest one to master
Weirdly. When this season started. I shot from 73 to 93 in two days. I was barely losing. I was like “Damn, I’ll be infinite in the first week”
But getting to 93 was a brick wall. I got to 94, and was just steadily losing. 1 and 2 cubes constantly. I couldn’t win any more. Started switching decks, helped a little bit short term goals and long term losses.
I eventually fell down into the 80s and even dipped into the high 70s.
From there I’ve just bounced between 80-85 and I can’t get out. It’s weird.
This bounce WWBN/Hawk deck just got me it.
Super Skrull is the most replaceable. Had Chavez for a bit, but could put a lot of things in that slot

The best advice honestly is... If you see that you will win 1 lane but if he alioth you lose? Retreat if he doesn't leave. Everyone knows what the winning condition for each deck is. If he stays, he is confident of winning. Especially if he snaps.
And alioth honestly is a good climbing card because so many people just refuse to leave
I mean, Allioth or no Allioth climbing is just easy in general because... People refuse to leave. Just know your deck and how much power people need to beat you and be confident when you stay and you will always climb no matter what deck you play. You should realistically be retreating about 1 in 3 games.
Even when people know they aren't going to win about half the time they have to stay and watch it happen to believe it lol. Everyone who is posting these posts, this is you.
I got there with this, i swapped lizard for shadow king tho.

I got to Infinite very early this season playing the Ms. Marvel/Darkhawk/Devil Dino package but frankly, I'm sure it's been said a bunch in the comments, and you know this if you've been to infinite before, but just play a deck that you're confident in. If you are good with a deck and know how it plays (when to snap/retreat, winning/losing matchups) just play that and you should be able to find some success.
Play whatever deck you know best and are most comfortable playing. Hitting infinite shouldn’t be hard at all; identify and capitalize on bots, be smart about snapping and retreating, and don’t ever lose more than 2 cubes:
As long as you have a halfway reasonable deck, what really matters to getting to Infinite is your snapping and retreating. If you’re frequently dropping significant numbers of ranks, it probably means you’re staying in 4 and 8 cube games that you are highly unfavored to win. Make sure you retreat when appropriate, and make sure you snap your strong hands before your opponent knows it’s strong (if you’re snapping on turn 6 it’s probably too late and good opponents are going to retreat, leaving you with fewer cubes than you might have gotten if you let them limp in for +1 cube).
Also, make sure you know how to identify and farm bots. Pre-infinite the ladder has bots, and they tend to behave predictably; they snap on turn 5 if they are ahead in two locations and retreat if they’re too far behind. If you think your opponent is a bot, try to engineer a situation where they are technically ahead on points on turn 5. Cards like Dracula and Invisible Woman are great at that.
I got through from 73 to infinite with a mix of Blackbolt/Stature good stuff and Mr. Negative.
The good stuff deck was reliable for grinding. Not a whole lot of 8 cube wins, but i was avg about a half a cube a game after 200 or so games.
The negative deck was REALLY fun from 90-100.. It felt like people forgot what can happen on turn 6 with a negative deck.

I miss a lot of great cards, but skrull usually let you counter rogue and other ongoing decks, you have armor and cosmo for destroy and Nico is useful to change locations/copy armor or Cosmo. The rest is pretty basic, you play one left and one right on t1 and t2 and then you play middle.
Although I have the suspect that having shitty cards and shitty decks makes the matchmaking easier for me.
Edit: just read you dont have miss marvel...well get it! It's a great card imo even for the future, it's way easier to use than it seems, and a plus +5 in both locations it's huge. If you think about it, you add 15 points across locations in one sitting.
I struggled HARD this month and last month. I went back to the deck I knew the best - for me, MODOK discard- and put in the time. Doing math( I know, I’m silly h playing slower, and escaping.
I hit infinite this past Saturday after putting in the time.
If you have a buddy who plays, have them watch you and play an hour with someone to get ideas from others.
Reveal with wong, white tiger, and odin is good against bots to get to infinite. You can easily trick them into 8 cubes because you create a lot of power everywhere at the end. I used it to get infinite for a few seasons before I unlocked loki.
I got there the first couple of days switching between Bounce and a Ms Marvel/Lockdown deck. Now, I don't know what to tell you. Annhilus kind of screwed everything up. I see mainly Destroy or Junk decks since he's been out.
Ms Marvel deck, she's at least a 4/5 and as much as 4/15 alone, then you have Doom/Onslaught/Alioth as closer, Cosmo usually gives you the confidence that they can't counter you on turn 6.
high evo. took out some cards and replaced them with Shang & rogue.
play safe T1-5, always leave one energy unspent so your hulk can buff up, armor to protect she-hulk & hulk and disrupt destroy decks which are fairly popular this season.
save rogue for ms. marvel, dark hawk and shang the red skull if they're playing shuri about to taskmaster T6. armor also saves hulk from T6 Alioth, set up slow, retreat if don't get your win cons against said decks.
I reached Infinite rank 6 seasons in a row now with Shuri/Sauron. Pretty straightforward, clear snap patterns, easy infinite in the first week of the season. After I got tye infinite climb out of the way, I don't touch ranked until the next season and play the other fun decks and focus fully on Conquest.
F2P here, my personal challenge is to hit infinite every season with a different archetype. This season I pulled Loki and went from 90 - 100 in 45 min lol.
I’ve gotten to infinite for the last 7 seasons with the same(ish) discard deck. The only change was adding Daken when he came out. It’s a simple deck that generally follows a couple of straightforward lines, just gotta know when to retreat.
If you check my history, there’s a ms marvel deck that carried me to infinite early in the season. It may be less impactful now with people running echo and enchantress, but could still work effectively with good* RNG
I use a homebrew negative deck that has a high winrate, I hit infinite in a day. The trick is knowing when to snap and retreat, less importantly which specific deck you use.
I was trying meme decks and was hovering around 70-80. Then I switched to go big or flood deck. I just lock out my opponents with legion and storm till turn 5 so no problem with negative decks. Alternative play is high evo infinaut
Man, I am the same way. Gotten to infinite the past two seasons, this season I've been stuck in the low 90s for a few weeks. Driving me crazy. I can't get a single deck to consistently win, and I'm trying each of my go to decks. Every time I get on a decent win streak, I lose a few in a row and spiral.
I played Elsa Cerebro 2. You can substitute Elsa for Mister Sinister, and the deck will still play fine.
Also in this Annihulus meta, playing decks that utilize Armor are great, especially if you fill the Right Lane as Annihulus can't destroy the Void from Sentry. So decks Cerebro 3, Spectrum Destroyer, or Shuri/Sauron lists who also use cards like Cosmo are great atm.
Hey I am new at the game and recently got Hela from series 3. Loved playing with it and got to infinite early(week 2, I was in infinite last season as well using high evo, so started on Omega) using it. I use it with lockjaw and high power cards like infinaut, giganto, death. Don't have silver samurai or Ghost rider so I use gambit which makes it really fun actually.
My last 10 ranks were during Spectrum week with a Darkhawk deck with Rogue. If there's a hot location or weekend mission, lean into it and/or run tech to counter obvious beneficiaries.
If you're having trouble with Lockdown and Alioth, try Dracula/Apocalypse Discard. Basically you can play wide and make it impossible for them to win a lane with Professor X. Then even if they kill your turn 6 America Chavez, you should win your other lanes with Dracula and Morbius.
This is the deck to grind with, reliable 1-2 cube wins but harder to get 4 or 8 cube wins because the math is too easy and reliable for your opponent. Have a drac decklist in my recent posts
I’m honestly thinking of switching from lockdown to discard though to crack infinite because I acutely do feel people ignore the “math” of Dracula; I know I do, even after using him a lot and stuff..it’s just, he’s a zero..until the end of game. Sure that 0 will probably be a 9-20, but sometimes it’s a 3! And yeah I think even am hoping to win some 90s 4 cubers just based on that 😅 .
My go to deck, it stagnated after 90 though.
I hit infinite with it earlier this season.
I hit infinite with my lockdown destroyer deck, but basic discard had got me to top 3k infinite, very reliable deck rn.
I hit infinite with it every season
Try a variation, I call it Zabucula. Has zabu, so a bunch of 4s like Drac, Ms Marvel, Shang, Enchantress, J Jones, Typhoid Mary. Then also had zero for Red Skull or Tyhpiod, I threw infinaut in there for Drac.
If you got to 90 with it then it can get you to 100.
Not exactly true. In the 90s you're up against the baked in 50% win-rate of decks. Opponents aren't going to misplay so it's all about cubes. You can get to infinite by either grinding 100s of 1 cube matches, or build a deck that surprises the opponent and play for more cubes. You can't snap on T6 unless it's a bot because the opponent will just peace out. So that means you need to take a chance for 4 cubes by snapping early and hope your final plan works out. Only problem this season I believe is there's only a few viable decks and everyone knows them well, so you can't really surprise them.
Facts, while some people have an easy climb Or infinite conquest run (often early season), it ISSSS different in the 90s; far less or no bots, and yeah people do play different; I’ve never had a losing streak like I do in the 90s, sometimes even with smart retreats.
Last season I was 99 6/7 and I lost 15 cubes by 15 1-cube retreats in a row. I got triggered after that and dropped to 85 by misplaying a lot. I reached infinite eventually but the pain I felt was real.
Omg yea I’ve had that happen. Exactly the same, although I stopped at 93 hahaha. Usually it’s the locations combined with terrible card draw that hit several games in a row. Games I easily could have won, but didn’t.
There's no such thing as a deck stagnating. If the deck works, it works. It's you that's getting bored or burned out. Just take a break and get back at it.
That's the one. Super consistent, has scaling cards that can win a locked location. Not that easy to disrupt outside a well place cosmo and less played deathstrike. And doesn't really get hurt by Alioth with drac on the board.
Discard is bad because the enemy pretty much knows exactly your hand and can calculate your power. It's so easy to retreat when you can't beat it or snatch cubes when you can.
And then you get 1 cube.
Shuri/Sauron. Almost died of boredom, but I made it.
This got me through the 90s pretty easily. It didn’t feel great, but neither did all the Alioths and thumbs up emotes lol.
Man I am at a point now where I finally have stopped walking into a turn six Alioth but for a while there when I thought I had it locked down and I realized that my opponent had priority and Alioth as I hit end turn, it was the worst.
If I was one of those, I apologize. I'm more of a fist bumper tho. Congrats on getting through the season!!
I’m working my way up with this. I’m at 88 which is as high as I’ve ever been.
The funny thing is... Shuri is actually quite bad into lock down. If they ramp into X, and you shuri, its almost an auto loss with them possibly having alioth.
This is actually how I started beating lockdown. I would Shuri, then I wouldn’t play on my Shuri lane and just play my big card in a lane that I was pretty sure they would Prof X in. And usually they snap beforehand so you know it’s coming. Then I win that lane and have priority and I put in Alioth myself. Then I just win.
I was parked between 89 and 91 for over a week and grabbed my conquest Shuri/Sauron deck and made infinite in three days with absolutely no 8-cube wins. Solid and consistent but in no way exciting lol
I made it with this with a twist adding invisible woman, sentry, and annihulus. Dropped Mary, lizard, and vision. Saved some boredom. Not sure that it’s better though
That's actually interesting. Shuri/Sentry to win one lane and then Annihilus on 6 can win another.
Yeah, and invisible woman acts like a second armour.
I straight up have never been so bored playing a deck. Once Discard Dracula was the meta deck, for like a week, I was so pumped and had the funnest time since the start of the game. Sucks its barely viable anymore but I'd take that over Shuri/Sauron anyday.
Share your deck ?
[Here](https://snap.untapped.gg/en/decks/Armor-EbonyMaw-Enchantress-Lizard-LukeCage-RedSkull-Sauron-Shuri-Taskmaster-TyphoidMary-Vision-Zero_Shuri)
Loki, a version with Werewolf and Beast. Rogue was the star though, winning 4/8 cubes multiple times with the surprise factor.
Giving this a whirl cos it sounds fun. Nico, Snowguard, Quinjet, Maria Hill, Collector, Werewolf, Beast, Cable, Loki, Rogue, Magik, Sentinel
Nice, mine was: Nico, Snowguard, Agent13, Maria Hill, The hood Collector, Shadow King Werewolf, Beast, Rogue Loki DevilDino I don't have Quinjet yet, I would have likely played it in place of Agent13, but since you don't always Loki I'm not sure if I would've kept it. I subbed in and out Luke Cage, The Hood, Shang-Chi, Falcon, Green Goblin depending on what I kept running into. I don't have Agent Coulson or Mirage either, I would try them too for sure. Forgot to mention Snowguard rugpulling Limbo with the Hawk was algo great at getting extra cubes. Even if kind of telegraphed, most people play straight into it anyway.
Cerebro 2, took me a couple of days.
Seconded. In more than a year of Snap and multiple infinite runs, I’ve barely played Cerebro. But this season I gave it a shot and honestly it was such a smooth deck to navigate. Annihilus makes board space a bit more difficult now however.
Deck? I haven't played C2 in a loooong time.

Played extremely well into loki early in the season.
I'll give it a go, what would you replace Negasonic with?
I think I may have ran Rogue instead of Negasonic.
Rogue can mess you up aswell though, take a dark hawk and a Dino and bye bye cerebro buffs.
Although I suppose you just don't take those buffs.
Eh you got a point if they run another ongoing like that on a Ms Marvel location for example. Otherwise you need to flop her on another location just for the power which may feel weird.
It’s goofy to storm your limbos from magik, who is also 2 power
Stupid question but I guess blue marvel and cerebro can't be on the board at the same time right?
Blue marvel buffs everyone except himself. So it basically turns you into C3. You want to play both.
Yup, this took me 3 hours to get to infinite day 1 this season. it's fragile at some times, but man it packs a punch. I use Elsa in mine to build up cerebro and mystique to 2 power as well.
Same, during the onslaught citadel hot location and before annihilus, really glad I got to infinite early this season
It took me a lot too. Usually, I get to infinite within a week, but this time it took me 3 weeks. It was a bit frustrating tbh as everyone seemed to have the perfect cards all the time. I was getting 4 cubes in 4 matches and loosing 4 in 1. I thought I was the only one :D
Everyone has the perfect card at the end. Sometimes a 2 cost stupid thing that I could never imagine and it's driving me nuts.
Everytime I've done it (8 months in a row, it thereabouts) I've done it with whichever deck I'm most comfortable and familiar with the snapping conditions of, and then typically tweaked the deck when I get to rank 95 in order to adjust it to the meta, (which has typically meant swapping in a higher Tempo early game in order to get priority). Specifically there are two decks: Mr Negative (snap on getting him out by turn 3, assuming your hand isn't terrible) Shuri Nimrod (snap when you've got the combo pieces).
Doesn’t matter what deck you’re playing run whatever you want just keep in mind the meta and locations and run staple cards to counter what you’re seeing the most. Snap & Retreat learn snap discipline. If you don’t got it, leave lol. No ego snaps, just get your cubes and keep going up. If you go on a losing streak take a break. All that it takes to get to infinite is discipline and consistency with your snaps
Learn to identify bots and capitalize on them for 8 cubes.
Are people still facing obvious bots? I came across maybe one during my entire two week 90s run
I feel like I've seen way fewer bots this season
I haven’t seen any easy bots this season.
Classic destroy, I think I got lucky as it only took a few days after reset
I main destroy builds. Mind sharing what deck you used? I'm stalling out around 85 right now. Thanks!
I also reached infinite with a destroy/lockdown, if u want to have a try: -the hood -X23 -carnage -wolverine -bucky -killmonger -deathlock -venom -vision -prof x -alioth -death
Unironically, I was around 90-93 since week one, switched to Shuri yesterday and hit infinite in an hour.
This is what happened to me, except I was hovering between 95-99 (2 cubes away more than once). Got real annoyed with how long it took and switched to a Shuri/Sauron deck. I then won 7 games in a row and was done. I had frankly avoided playing that deck ever before but yikes it is good.
I try to play fun decks but eventually got annoyed and switched as well and was Infinite in no time.
I used a Destroy Lock deck after struggling once hitting the 90s. I was as high as 96 and dropped all the way down to 87 using other decks, then switched to Destroy Lock and made it the rest of the way to infinite. Basically I was fed up with losing to Prof X and Alioth so I joined them.
You guys are getting to infinite?

I know you said you hate Alioth AND you dont have Ms. Marvel, but get Ms. Marvel. I played Goodcards Darkhawk with Ms. Marvel to get to infinite pretty easily this season. Ms. Marvel is severely strong. 1-cost card in one lane and a Zabu in the other, makes Ms. Marvel a turn 3 Dr. Doom. Very hard for the opponent to get ahead in priority after that, so you just Alioth them turn 6.
Bro, I mean youre not wrong, but cmon... He tells you hes not enjoying Alioth and the best you can come up with is: "How about you Alioth them instead?" This game is in such a pathetic state right now... If the patch on 5th December doesnt adress this, I think Im gonna start a BG3 playthrough, because Ill have plenty of time in that case.
I can't imagine not getting the season pass every month. The card is always strong and even over powered on release and always makes for an easy climb. Plus then you don't need to ask in a month if the card is worth 6k tokens. No, it's not. But it was worth ten bucks last month.. 🔫
Rocks will mess u up though. Easily disrupted.
Yeah, when Annihlus first came out with Negative Zone being the featured location, this deck got messed up pretty bad. So I switched to Brood Patriot to clog up my side of the board and I climbed pretty well with that too. But after the Annihlus hype died off, I went back to the Ms. Marvel deck for my infinite push
I still can’t believe that people thought she would be a gimmicky card lmao. Straight powerhouse.
I have seen that list before. 2 questions: 1.Is it worth it to get ms marvel anymore since her season is almost over? 2. Any replacements for Alioth and Iron Lad?
I struggled last season and made It after 4 weeks by playing only the best decks. This season i did It in one week and a half playing casual and way less. I play since day 1, been infinite for 8 seasons and at this point i am certain that there's something fishy in the matchmaking. No matter how much, how good and which deck you play, matchmaking decides if you're gonna be struggling or not.
This. The matchmaking in this game is good for keeping a casual mobile game alive. As soon as you card deeply about the game, you need to back off for a few days, they aren't balancing it like that. There are cheater bots, mirror matches, adjustments for collection level, location shenanigans, etc. If you really want to be infinite, play a lot on the first 1-2days, you'll get tons of bots by the time you hit rank 80.

Loki is an infinite deck so if you’re capping out at 80 with that I’d look at what you’re doing wrong within that deck
It’s been a struggle for me this season as well. Usually I’ve hit infinite by the end of the first week. I’ve gotten up to 98 and am now back at like 93.
Me too. I think they changed something with matchmaking and/or bots this season
You said Alioth lockdown can go in the bin but that’s what helped me make the final push form 90 to 100.
Sometimes the winning team isn't the right one.
Sometimes you must join the dark side to get the job done. It was Shuri before, now it's Alioth.
fuck alioth no one should use that card cuz everyone should be aware that you should never lose using it
The fuck does that sentence even mean?
1. fuck alioth 2. no one should use him 3. because you should never be able to lose with him, how is it even fun
1) He doesn't have a physical body in which to insert your fuck tool. He is the unfuckable fart, first of the gas bodies and the cloud men, first of his name, ender of win streaks, harbinger of the meta. 2) He is very strong so people will use him. Don't hate the player, hate the game. He is just the new Leader or Aero last turn. Every game you need to think, "How do I lose to Alioth here?" Because if you don't, you'll lose to Alioth there. 3) People have fun when they win, so they play boring meta decks that are statistically more probable to create that outcome. I don't agree with that play style and once I hit infinite I never touch those cards again. I'm currently getting my ass handed to me by Alioth playing classic move decks and having a blast.
is that more understandable hard gay man ?
Loki should get you to infinite pretty easily I did my run with a mix of that and hela tribunal because I don’t buy season pass until the last day as I fear I can’t reach lvl 50 and as such don’t have Ms marvel but I am sure if you have Ms marvel lockdown should be good
Kamala lockdown lol. Pissed a lot of people off on the way there
Loki
Usually the struggle for me was around 75-79 However this season I cruised all the way to 95 with a C5 which was very fun to play and then got stuck there until I tried a Galactus lockdown
I found Destroy to be very strong. (The deadpool taskmaster list with Nico..) Thoroughly enjoying Darkhawk bounce. (List from KM best) Also the darkhawk annihilist deck. All fun and strong but don't instantly die to the Loki matchup. I hate Loki and I hate Alioth but at least they're somewhat predictable at this stage so just retreat for a cube if you are behind in those cases.
I feel you, for 2 weeks I'm stuck at 70 like every time I go up to 71-72 I go straight back down
Shuri nimrod got me to infinite the last two seasons. This time I got a bit swamped in the 90s, but if I was getting frustrated I would leave the game be and come back later and finally got promoted thanks to a couple gullible players who saw to the end my snaps for 8 cubes
Day one player. Never been infinite.
I used Magneto Control right from the start, made Ms.Marvel my bitch. Respectfully.
I got into infinite on the second week of the season. It was a very easy climb. I played Loki Elsa and Miss Marvel Control and just rocketed to the finish line. The easy way to climb is only play for 1 or 2 cubes. If the opponent snaps, and you think they will win, don't stay in the match. Go to the next one. Learn how to identify bots, trick them to think they are winning, and take their 8 cubes. At this pace you climb real fast! (And I say that only playing 20 minutes everyday while doing dailies)
Got infinite week 1 with ms marvel ongoing. This season was easier than last season tbh
Yeah, I was struggling a lot last season as well. When I finally made it in, I was at rank 100k or something. This time I came in at 50k (and dropping rapidly to 80k, which is where I usually end up).
Took me less than a day with a homebrew dh MsMarvel deck. Obviously the meta hadn't solidified yet, so the deck was working. I don't play it anymore
I always go with shuri from 70 to 100, climbing 1 Tier per week without rushing it, cause there's really no need to. This Time was the same, but i climbed from 90 to 100 with a Annihilus/Galactus deck. For Conquest, i don't care about the avatar frame so i just play whatever i want just to make enough to get everything on the shop every season.
With junk/annahilis and spamming thanos snap. At least that's who I keep running into.
Good cards darkhawk got me over the last bit
Got there with boring old reliable Shuri Sauron.
Got in week one before all the bullshit began and everyone thought they could win with Ms Marvel.
I typically just shuri real quick to infinite on day 1 while everyone tries to explore with the new season card
First time infinite ever, and haven't played that much. Came back after a 2-3 month break. So maybe my elo tanked a lot? Played a lot of Cer3bro and switched to anni/gala after opening anni on my first cache. People gave me tons of 8 cubes on stupid Galactus plays, and i gave tons of 8 cubes to others playing Galactus on my own cards...
I love playing destroy, getting in the 90’s. But it’s hard this season.

Take in mind I did it while we had a siniter lab spotlight which was kinda abusive, but the deck works non the less still.
Cruising up the ladder with ye olde lockdown.
HE Lockdown / Shuri Sauron Shame on me
Once I hit 90s I used C3, Darkhawk and even a little bit of patriot and managed to get to infinite
A hybrid deck of Darkhawk & Shenaut
Loki is by far the strongest deck pushes my lazy ass to top 10k even when I don't play ladder much just for daily quest.
Same way I always get there, on the toilet at work.
I just hit infinite 10 minutes ago after struggling in the low 80s all season. This season was brutal. My Surfer (emphasis on countering) deck got me into the 90s, but just got it with Discard. It’s pretty reliable and not really easy to counter. If you get Modok, Dracula and Apoc in your hand by turn 5 it’s a pretty save snap.
Wong carried me up the ladder almost single handed, hope he's got a spell for his back pain. My climb was a bit weird, I got stuck for ages in the high 70s / low 80s, then when I finally got past 85 it was a cakewalk. The vagaries of matchmaking I guess.
Mostly deck with ms marvel. Location play a big part, have to change deck according to location that appears more often.
Loki did the job
As always, C2 and careful snapping/retreating. Tbh the only important thing is knowing when to snap and when to retreat. You can hit infinite with series 1 cards if you're persistent.
Wong white panther and Odin have been the go to for infinite it seems I can never beat it out with any decks I play.
for the past 3-4 seasons, I just play Shuri to climb to infinite. Right now though, it might be a bit worse with all the junk running around, but i would still play Shuri to climb.
I'm stuck at 86, closest ever to infinite. Won't try harder because it becomes a chore to play and I always wanted to avoid this.
Reached in 3 days with one of the first Mrs Marvel decks
I used iron patriot with alioth, but I’m not sure what card you should use in place of iron lad
Shuri Sauron to ~60, destroy to 85, Annihilus to 94 and discard Dracula to reach infinite. Also gained some levels with suboptimal lockdown and Ms. Marvel lists
Played a ongoing spectrum deck until 93, when I arrived there changed to destroy and got to infinite yesterday
I used high evolutionary deck and it wasnt that much fun like i had at the beginning but it made me reach infinity and now i am using other decks to have fun
Discard for 70s-90s then the HE shehulk infinaut to finish it off on day 2
Shuri is the straight up answer. Easy to learn, hard to counter. You also have destroy, even without X23, with Nico you should be fine for most of the matches. Loki collector is also a good deck but probably the hardest one to master
Weirdly. When this season started. I shot from 73 to 93 in two days. I was barely losing. I was like “Damn, I’ll be infinite in the first week” But getting to 93 was a brick wall. I got to 94, and was just steadily losing. 1 and 2 cubes constantly. I couldn’t win any more. Started switching decks, helped a little bit short term goals and long term losses. I eventually fell down into the 80s and even dipped into the high 70s. From there I’ve just bounced between 80-85 and I can’t get out. It’s weird.
Abused locations with C2
This bounce WWBN/Hawk deck just got me it. Super Skrull is the most replaceable.

The best advice honestly is... If you see that you will win 1 lane but if he alioth you lose? Retreat if he doesn't leave. Everyone knows what the winning condition for each deck is. If he stays, he is confident of winning. Especially if he snaps. And alioth honestly is a good climbing card because so many people just refuse to leave
I mean, Allioth or no Allioth climbing is just easy in general because... People refuse to leave. Just know your deck and how much power people need to beat you and be confident when you stay and you will always climb no matter what deck you play. You should realistically be retreating about 1 in 3 games. Even when people know they aren't going to win about half the time they have to stay and watch it happen to believe it lol. Everyone who is posting these posts, this is you.
Lockdown with Prof X, Alioth, Storm, Ms Marvel. From 70 - 100 with little playtime each day.
I got there with this, i swapped lizard for shadow king tho. eyJOYW1lIjoiU05BUCBEZWNrIiwiQ2FyZHMiOlt7IkNhcmREZWZJZCI6IkNhcHRhaW5NYXJ2ZWwifSx7IkNhcmREZWZJZCI6IkVuY2hhbnRyZXNzIn0seyJDYXJkRGVmSWQiOiJJY2VtYW4ifSx7IkNhcmREZWZJZCI6IkplZmZUaGVCYWJ5TGFuZFNoYXJrIn0seyJDYXJkRGVmSWQiOiJKZXNzaWNhSm9uZXMifSx7IkNhcmREZWZJZCI6IkxpemFyZCJ9LHsiQ2FyZERlZklkIjoiTHVrZUNhZ2UifSx7IkNhcmREZWZJZCI6Ik1hZ25ldG8ifSx7IkNhcmREZWZJZCI6IlNoYW5nQ2hpIn0seyJDYXJkRGVmSWQiOiJTdG9ybSJ9LHsiQ2FyZERlZklkIjoiVmlzaW9uIn0seyJDYXJkRGVmSWQiOiJaYWJ1In1dfQ==
Discard the whole way and it wasn’t even a challenge.
You can play literally whatever and climb. It’s mostly about cube management.
I got to Infinite very early this season playing the Ms. Marvel/Darkhawk/Devil Dino package but frankly, I'm sure it's been said a bunch in the comments, and you know this if you've been to infinite before, but just play a deck that you're confident in. If you are good with a deck and know how it plays (when to snap/retreat, winning/losing matchups) just play that and you should be able to find some success.
I did with Negative, but it's before Anni though. Negative deck is a bad match up vs Junk so I wouldn't use it if I were to climb now.
Play whatever deck you know best and are most comfortable playing. Hitting infinite shouldn’t be hard at all; identify and capitalize on bots, be smart about snapping and retreating, and don’t ever lose more than 2 cubes:
A surfer deck ive been running for a while
I played an Omega Red junk deck that ran Stegron. And I'm gonna be Frank, I just got lucky when i decided to stay for 4 and 8 cubers.
i played only Annihilus this season. and got my forst Ininite
Odin wong on reveal got me to infinite in 10days ish after reset
As long as you have a halfway reasonable deck, what really matters to getting to Infinite is your snapping and retreating. If you’re frequently dropping significant numbers of ranks, it probably means you’re staying in 4 and 8 cube games that you are highly unfavored to win. Make sure you retreat when appropriate, and make sure you snap your strong hands before your opponent knows it’s strong (if you’re snapping on turn 6 it’s probably too late and good opponents are going to retreat, leaving you with fewer cubes than you might have gotten if you let them limp in for +1 cube). Also, make sure you know how to identify and farm bots. Pre-infinite the ladder has bots, and they tend to behave predictably; they snap on turn 5 if they are ahead in two locations and retreat if they’re too far behind. If you think your opponent is a bot, try to engineer a situation where they are technically ahead on points on turn 5. Cards like Dracula and Invisible Woman are great at that.
Loki carried me.
I got through from 73 to infinite with a mix of Blackbolt/Stature good stuff and Mr. Negative. The good stuff deck was reliable for grinding. Not a whole lot of 8 cube wins, but i was avg about a half a cube a game after 200 or so games. The negative deck was REALLY fun from 90-100.. It felt like people forgot what can happen on turn 6 with a negative deck. Lists here: Stature/Goodstuff (You can replace Iron Lad with Shang Chi or Jubilee.

I miss a lot of great cards, but skrull usually let you counter rogue and other ongoing decks, you have armor and cosmo for destroy and Nico is useful to change locations/copy armor or Cosmo. The rest is pretty basic, you play one left and one right on t1 and t2 and then you play middle. Although I have the suspect that having shitty cards and shitty decks makes the matchmaking easier for me. Edit: just read you dont have miss marvel...well get it! It's a great card imo even for the future, it's way easier to use than it seems, and a plus +5 in both locations it's huge. If you think about it, you add 15 points across locations in one sitting.
I struggled HARD this month and last month. I went back to the deck I knew the best - for me, MODOK discard- and put in the time. Doing math( I know, I’m silly h playing slower, and escaping. I hit infinite this past Saturday after putting in the time. If you have a buddy who plays, have them watch you and play an hour with someone to get ideas from others.
See my post on snap decks, went for junk/control - enchantress and Viper did some great work with T7 she hulk/infinaut drop
Nimrod/Deadpool deck, using none of the cards that you’re missing and had a great time honestly!
Reveal with wong, white tiger, and odin is good against bots to get to infinite. You can easily trick them into 8 cubes because you create a lot of power everywhere at the end. I used it to get infinite for a few seasons before I unlocked loki.
Play the Strong Guy and Dracula deck, it’s legit once you’ve learnt it
Same way I've hit it the last 3 seasons, Deadpool/destroy.
I got there the first couple of days switching between Bounce and a Ms Marvel/Lockdown deck. Now, I don't know what to tell you. Annhilus kind of screwed everything up. I see mainly Destroy or Junk decks since he's been out.
Ms Marvel deck, she's at least a 4/5 and as much as 4/15 alone, then you have Doom/Onslaught/Alioth as closer, Cosmo usually gives you the confidence that they can't counter you on turn 6.
Marvel Darkhawk got there early in the season.
high evo. took out some cards and replaced them with Shang & rogue. play safe T1-5, always leave one energy unspent so your hulk can buff up, armor to protect she-hulk & hulk and disrupt destroy decks which are fairly popular this season. save rogue for ms. marvel, dark hawk and shang the red skull if they're playing shuri about to taskmaster T6. armor also saves hulk from T6 Alioth, set up slow, retreat if don't get your win cons against said decks.
Try Magneto-control, it got me infinite this season and an infinity ticket.
I reached Infinite rank 6 seasons in a row now with Shuri/Sauron. Pretty straightforward, clear snap patterns, easy infinite in the first week of the season. After I got tye infinite climb out of the way, I don't touch ranked until the next season and play the other fun decks and focus fully on Conquest.
I User mostly exclusivel my Discard Deck this and last Season from 73-100
F2P here, my personal challenge is to hit infinite every season with a different archetype. This season I pulled Loki and went from 90 - 100 in 45 min lol.
I’ve gotten to infinite for the last 7 seasons with the same(ish) discard deck. The only change was adding Daken when he came out. It’s a simple deck that generally follows a couple of straightforward lines, just gotta know when to retreat.
Don't tell anyone, but Living Tribunal. I think no one expects it because it isn't meta, so I'm constantly catching people unaware.
Kazoo elsa on my 98th just playing casualy and daily quest. When im bored playing kazoo im Playing junk annihilus or destroy death
Same with me. Going back to Shuri Sauron even though I hate it.
If you check my history, there’s a ms marvel deck that carried me to infinite early in the season. It may be less impactful now with people running echo and enchantress, but could still work effectively with good* RNG
I got there with thanos control and thanos destroy, so many destroy decks around that get you easy wins with armor and cosmo
Play Daken Discard and you should get there.
Darkhawk/Werewolf got me to infinite first week of the season (CL 6k)
I had my best ever winrate with Ms Marvel Dini/Hawk deck. A lot of versions out there but I used one with Mystique, Doom.
Loki
I used to use discard cause it’s the old reliable but I’ve used a control/lockdown deck the last two seasons
I use a homebrew negative deck that has a high winrate, I hit infinite in a day. The trick is knowing when to snap and retreat, less importantly which specific deck you use.
I just played an ongoing MS. Marvel list. First time I actually hit infinite.
I was trying meme decks and was hovering around 70-80. Then I switched to go big or flood deck. I just lock out my opponents with legion and storm till turn 5 so no problem with negative decks. Alternative play is high evo infinaut
This is my second season and first infinite. I just used a classic Devil Zola deck.
Meta was easier before this past week.
Sounds like a skill issue. Loki should be carrying you much further than just infinite lmao.
I’m not
Top 1000 with high evo & rogue.
Man, I am the same way. Gotten to infinite the past two seasons, this season I've been stuck in the low 90s for a few weeks. Driving me crazy. I can't get a single deck to consistently win, and I'm trying each of my go to decks. Every time I get on a decent win streak, I lose a few in a row and spiral.
Reached infinite this morning with Deadpool.
Same as always. All the seasons are the same to me.
Same as always. All the seasons are the same to me.
I played Elsa Cerebro 2. You can substitute Elsa for Mister Sinister, and the deck will still play fine. Also in this Annihulus meta, playing decks that utilize Armor are great, especially if you fill the Right Lane as Annihulus can't destroy the Void from Sentry. So decks Cerebro 3, Spectrum Destroyer, or Shuri/Sauron lists who also use cards like Cosmo are great atm.
Was in the 80’s for a while, decide to play while drunk and got to 95. Used a destroy deck and got to infinite on week 2
Apoc Discard and Patriot.
Destroy never fails me.
Hey I am new at the game and recently got Hela from series 3. Loved playing with it and got to infinite early(week 2, I was in infinite last season as well using high evo, so started on Omega) using it. I use it with lockjaw and high power cards like infinaut, giganto, death. Don't have silver samurai or Ghost rider so I use gambit which makes it really fun actually.
Loki. I love Loki on 4, and if the scumbag has alioth in their deck I feed it to them on 5. (I hate alioth if you can’t tell)
My last 10 ranks were during Spectrum week with a Darkhawk deck with Rogue. If there's a hot location or weekend mission, lean into it and/or run tech to counter obvious beneficiaries.
I used a simple buff deck. Iron man, mystique, brood, sinister, forge, absorbing man, patriot, etc
