ICEteous Purpose

The tricky thing about Snow Clones is that they're a great source of constant damage but they're hard to buff. Well, have a little faith, friends, because the answer to our prayers is here: Righteous Purpose. Our immortal goobers are graduating to true menaces!

We've got all the typical Iceman goodies. Team-Building Exercise, The X-Jet, Utopia, and X-Mansion (which you'll use almost exclusively to heal Bobby) with Mutant Education to combo with his AE ability and keep the ice powers flowing. Which is good, because we mostly want to use our activations to defend ourselves, so we need as many options as we can for getting Frostbite on the enemies we want to kill. Frozen Solid is always a good card, but in this deck it really shines since it lets you save your activations for attacks and drop safely to alter-ego for some big recovery turns. It's really easy to spend 4 ER to negate a villain activation when you're getting 10 damage in the exchange (attack + Clones).

Almost every ally in the deck is primed for Righteous Purpose after a single activation. As mentioned, the Snow Clone duo will start swinging for 4 a turn each after one activation. Triage and Beak are already great, but they're even more impressive when they swing for 3 THW/ATK on the way out. Mirage is a little pricey, but she interacts very well with Frostbite and brings some good thwarting backup. Pixie, Kid Omega, and Cyclops all do their things and then go off the next turn. Colossus is the only odd-mutant-out, but he's here to keep us safe as we build, then bring the pain when we're ready.

With the help of Command Team, you always have to option of accelerating your allies when the board state demands it. Or, you can use them to double send your Clones for another 4 damage. You've got 5 total ally slots available to give you the breathing room to squeeze every last drop of value out of your allies.

Keep yourself healthy, do X-man things, and then drop the righteous hammer to close the game. Easy peasy!
