Welcome to my silly themed Hulk deck.

I've always had this dumb idea of making a Spy-themed Hulk. Unfortunately, the card selection was not there to support it. However, with the release of Sinister Motives, spy-decks and S.H.I.E.L.D decks are not only possible but fun!

S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent Banner - Double-Oh Hulk -- License to Smash

Double-Oh Hulk

Themes

This deck is themed around three ideas:

S.H.I.E.L.D allies

This deck has 8 S.H.I.E.L.D allies. With Helicarrier and Government Liaison working together, it will reduce their cost by 2. Nick Fury and Dum Dum Dugan are still very expensive but possible in Alter-ego as Bruce Banner.

With S.H.I.E.L.D agent Hulk face tanking and Field Agents supporting, you can keep your S.H.I.E.L.D allies around longer to manage threat. With Vigilante Training, you can even shuffle discarded Justice allies back into your player deck.

There are are also some mini-combos with certain allies. Agent Coulson brings in the Preparation card, Espionage and Monica Chang warps in the Surveillance Team.

Agent 13 and Field Agent combo well to help you ready the Helicarrier or even the Surveillance Team if you need some more thwarting.

Recursion

Hulk decks need help. With a hand-limit of 4 and the mandatory discard, any cards that make the deck efficient and helps with card draw are golden (like Justice).

Vigilante Training is an important card. Any Justice card can be recycled back into your deck, depending on what you need. Agent Coulson, Monica Chang, Global Logistics and Homeland Intervention are great cards, and better if you can replay them.

One of the problems that Hulk decks have is the left-over cards at the end of your turn. Plan B is a way to help with that. You can discard it and do 2-damage to pick off a weak minion or remove Toughness. Sky-Destroyer is another good 2-damage trigger to helping out with minions.

Flexibility

The Global Logisticss are great in this deck. They are 0-cost cards, something the Hulk desperately needs.

But, they add something that most Hulks don't do: they let you arrange your player deck. It's hard to make combos or get the right cards with Hulk decks. The 4-card hand and the mandatory discard is very limiting. The Global Logistics is a fun card that let's you change that. Put your expensive cards or big Hulk cards at the bottom of the deck... search for the Helicarrier and Government Liaison to setup your engine... search for Agent Coulson or Monica Chang. The Global Logistics also work as a great end-game card because it works on the encounter deck.

Symbiote Suit

Any super-spy needs a black tux dinner jacket. Any secret agent needs a black ninja suit.

It's mostly there for fun as an end-game tool. With S.H.I.E.L.D supports and allies deployed, and with a thinned out deck, Symbiote Suit can be a fun card to play. But early game, it can act as a source to help trigger some of the Hulk cards like Unstoppable Force.

It's mostly there for the fun and the theme.

Cards not added

Chance Encounter might be a good option to recycle your allies back into your player deck.

One Way or Another is another good card for this deck. It's risky but high-reward, allowing for big card draw which is something Hulk needs.

Sonic Rifle might be another alternative card. This would let you confuse the enemy, and jump into alter-ego. Sky-Destroyer and Quake would help control any minions while in alter-ego form.

Enjoy!

Vigilante Training only gets yellow events...

Monica Chang seems like she really wants to hang out with a full set of Surveillance Team, and the Surveillance Teams are happy to sit around at one counter waiting for Monica to show up, exhausting for other SHIELD cards.

I do like the idea of Secret Agent Hulk though :)

Ah, thanks for the clarification on Vigilante Training. :(
