Stronger Than Ever

Stronger Together is a card that I really like and was really looking for some interesting combos. As an interrupt, this care can trigger Ghost-Spider's hero ability.

Why Ghost Spider?:

The idea behind this deck is to take advantage of Stronger Together keeping an ally who shares a trait with you from taking damage by reducing the amount of damage taken by your heroes defense. With a base defense of 3, Gwen can mitigate a good amount of damage and by using Armored Vest and Defensive Conditioning we can get her up to base 5.

With it being an interrupt, Ghost-Spider has the hero ability that let's her ready after resolving an event with interrupt once per phase. The fun part of Stronger Together is how it is 0 cost and can be used in either phase!

The easiest solution is to use it during your turn when an ally attacks or thwart reducing their consequential to 0, drawing a card from Web-Bracelet and getting the ready.

The idea the deck is built on though is using it in the villain phase to let allies defend and not take damage especially Spider-UK. He deals damage when he defends based on the number of Web-Warrior cards in play which can get up to 5. Web of Life and Destiny, Gwen and 3 allies including him.

A turn could look something like this in 2p, Gwen defends the villain attack against your hero and with the defense stat upgrades and Unflappable potentially draw a card from taking no damage.

Then have Spider-Uk defend for a teammate; use Stronger Together, dealing damage back with UK's ability, ready from the interrupt and draw a card from her bracelet. With Hangar Bay out, UK can ready as well! Grand total for playing Stronger Together with UK defending can be up to 5 damage dealt, 2 readies and a card draw.

If you had Stronger stored under George Stacy and played it from there, you can end up with a 7 card hand starting your turn with everyone ready!

George Stacy helps a lot with keeping the strategy online by storing events and keeping stronger together on deck for when its needed. While it may seem difficult to pull this strategy off I have had no issues consistently getting UK online to defend in the villain phase and use Stronger Together.

While its best used for UK any ally can defend for you or a teammate and hit the stronger together synergy.

Ops Room is really nice for harder hitting villains and helps to achieve perfect defense with unflappable as well as mitigate damage that our allies take when they defend.

Scarlet Spider is also fantastic to absorb consequential or excess damage from attacks keeping our desired heroes on board.

During the hero turn, Stronger can be used with UK to negate his double consequential and generate card draw as well as a ready from the bracelet and her hero ability. Using this after a Taunt when you don't have a Phantom Flip or Ghost Kick feels really nice. Then after the ready you can attack again and utilize one of those events if you drew into them from Taunt.

Another really nice combo is to use Across the Spider-Verse to exhaust Gwen when Web of Life isn't out to pull an ally from discard then use stronger on that ally to ready her!

Overall I've really enjoyed this deck, it makes good use of allies and generates a ton of readies as well as card draw. It's best suited in 2p where you can defend for others but it does well in solo also.
