Die for
Darkseid!
Today's card is going to focus on the pt burn
aspect of the new Burn 'Em deck. Die for
Darkseid! is a 2-cost PT that causes your
opponent to lose 4 endurance, provided you KO
one of your characters. Now if you have a DE
character you can replace a non-ongoing PT, but
that is neither here or there. The whole concept
of the Burn 'Em deck is to burn your opponent as
fast as possible, so getting out little burn
characters and then KO-ing them for this PT
serves two purposes. First, you get extra damage
on your opponent. Second, you don't have to
worry about your little characters hanging
around to get smashed. The one thing to notice
about this card is that it doesn't specify a
character type or position....so you can use
this card for already stunned characters as
well. There should definitely be 4 of these
cards in your burn deck!
Ratings:
DCMA constructed - 3.5/5.0 ...This is a great
card for anyone that is running a rush deck and
is looking for a little extra burn.
GA constructed - 4.0/5.0 ...This is a must for a
weenie burn deck!
Limited - 3.5/5.0 ...If you have a character
that is going to get KO-ed anyway, you might as
well get something out of it.

Die for
Darkseid
We continue our look at Burn with Die For
Darkseid, a quasi-team stamped plot twist from
the recent Justice League set. In High Voltage,
it turns a 1-drop from a liability into 4 points
of burn. AGL decks already use it to get a
little more utility out of Anti-Green Lanterns
that are on their way to the KO'd pile anyway.
It's a card with a very narrow utility, but very
powerful in the right deck. It's second effect
only triggers if you have a Darkseid's Elite
character out...not something that happens too
often. Even if you happen to have one out,
you'll probably wind up replacing the copy of
Die For Darkseid you just flipped.
In Limited, Die For Darkseid is a pretty nifty
pick, especially if you play a copy or two of
Gorilla Grodd in your deck. A little extra
endurance loss never hurt anybody, and nothing's
worse than having a pesky
1 drop that stays on your field and draws
attacks from your opponent for massive
breakthrough. Not a high pick, but worth
including in a Sealed deck for a little added
insurance.
Rating: 3/5
