VIGILANTES
High
Play with a reduced number of minions in your deck, but with a team of seven power-4 minions with powerful and oppressive abilities, including hard removal, power boost and retaliation.
Description
The Vigilantes are one of the 4 factions from the That ’70s Expansion set.
Vigilantes are only composed of power-4 minions, each with a very oppressive and reactive effect to other players' cards.
Other factions from the same set: Disco Dancers, Kung Fu Fighters, Truckers.
Cards Overview
The Vigilantes have only 7 minions and 13 actions compared to the usual 10 and 10. Every minion is power 4, which makes the total minion base power (not counting any abilities) equal to 28 or an average of 4 per minion compared to the usual 30 and 3. On top of that, they have several abilities that can boost the power of minions beyond their base value.
Among their actions, there are:
* 3 play-on-minion actions: Feeling Lucky?, Tough It Out (2x),
* 3 play-on-base actions: Let’s Finish This, Shrug it Off, Street Justice,
* 7 standard actions (5 that affect one or more minions, in bold): A Whole Lot Meaner, Knocked into Next Week, Make My Day, Scared Straight, The Revenge, Who Loves Ya, Baby? (2x),
* 3 actions that directly increase a minion's power: A Whole Lot Meaner, Tough It Out (2x).
