your hidden area, and he cannot move to the visible
area this turn.

Amenhotep -
Dark Pharaoh
Today we come to a card that can be slightly
debated for a reservist deck - Amenhotep.
Some people like to include Amenhotep in their
reservist build simply for his automatic
recovery effect. I, on the other hand, tend to
shy away from this card simply because I like to
try to stay within a single team affiliation
when it comes to a reservist deck so that I can
get the most out of my PT's and locations. That
is not to say this card is bad in any way...it
just isn't for everyone. This card's
auto-recovery makes him a good back-up 5-drop,
but I say stick to the main team affiliation you
are working with...you will probably get more
out of you deck in the long run...
Ratings:
MMA constructed - 3.0/5.0 ...This character is a
good alternative 5-drop
GA constructed - 2.5/5.0 ...Once this guy goes
to the concealed area you open your field up to
attack...
Limited - 4.0/5.0 ...Having a character that
automatically recovers is gold in this format.

Amenhotep
Not much to say about today's card. He was a
nice backup 5-drop because of his reservist
status, and having him in the hidden area isn't
bad, since it guarantees a swing back on
off-init. However, She Hulk and Sub-Mariner are
both better options at 5, so Amenhotep should be
seeing no play at all in a competitive Avengers
deck.
As far as limited play goes, he's a very average
5-drop, and his ability is more of a hinderance
than a bonus. He's a very late pick, and only if
you either really need a spare 5 or a spare
reservist.
1/5
