That actually clears up a number of things for me.Yeah, this is why going last in the first round is so advantageous. You do whatever with your first action, and then with your second action you use your remaining action die and your all-seeing die and you take the exodus action. Since no one goes after you, you basically get to pick whatever regions you want to win. It's the strongest position in round one.

It'd be the same if you played a FH class in 2e or vice versa.These classes were tested with GH2e materials which are meant to be balanced in line with Frosthaven and all modern Haven games. I wouldn't overthink it. These should slot well into 2e or FH.

Reply: Marvel Champions: The Card Game:: General:: Re: Wonder Man and Hercules Official Spoiler Weeks

4 February 2026 @ 2:29 am

by Mathetes It’s probably also worth mentioning that Hercules might be a great candidate for the Suit Up, Sidekick, and Side-by-Side package that came in Age of Apocalypse. Cho is kind of like a (roughly) half-price Avengers Mansion. Suit Up also has a physical resource, so the extra copies can pay the Hydra tax. Sidekick giving extra hp is nice in case a minion attack slips through and hits Cho. And, Side-by-Side is awesome because it gives you another card from Cho’s ability while readying Herc with a +1 ATK.I just wanted to mention that because AoA is listed as still in-print and is relatively recent. So, a newer player might still have full access to this deck-type.(Savage Strike in Aggression is from the Civil War box, so it seems like there are at least two very strong deck options for him using recent cards.)

vivo X300 series may expand soon, as X300e spotted online

4 February 2026 @ 12:02 am

vivo may soon expand its X300 series with a new addition, and no, it’s not the much rumored vivo X300 Ultra. According to a new report, an X300e variant has now been spotted online. The report claims that a vivo X300e has been spotted in the GSMA IMEI database. While the listing doesn’t disclose any specs, it does confirm the device’s moniker. If the listing is accurate, this would mark the first time the X series has introduced an ‘e’ variant.

Samsung is expected to unveil the Galaxy Buds4 and Galaxy Buds4 Pro alongside the Galaxy S26 family later this month, and today some official-looking renders of the earbuds have been outed.

Motorola Razr 70 joins the Razr 70 Ultra in being certified ahead of release

3 February 2026 @ 8:31 pm

Motorola launched the Razr 60 in April of last year, so it probably won't surprise you to find out that the company is already developing its successor, aptly named Razr 70. This foldable device has now been certified for sale in the UAE by TDRA, with the model number XT2657-8. TDRA previously also certified the Razr 70 Ultra, with the model number XT2655-1.

Details for mid-range Kirin 8030 chipset leak, show higher clock speeds than the 8020

3 February 2026 @ 7:02 pm

Huawei is pretty secretive about its Kirin chipsets, especially ones that are yet to be officially announced. However, one Weibo leakster has details on an upcoming Kirin 8030. This is a mid-range chip that might be used in future Huawei nova and Enjoy phones. For example, the recent nova 15 featured the Kirin 8020, which was also featured on the nova 14 Pro and nova 14 Ultra. The Huawei nova 15 uses the Kirin 8020 The Kirin 8030 is said to be built on SMIC’s N+2 node, which is a 7nm FinFET node.

Samsung expects that the Galaxy Z Fold8 will outsell its Z Flip8 sibling for the first time

3 February 2026 @ 1:04 pm

When it comes to the Galaxy S series, the Ultra tends to outsell the other two models (vanilla and plus) combined, despite being the most expensive one of the trio. However, with foldables it’s the other way around – the cheaper Z Flip outsells the pricier Z Fold. Now Ice Universe quotes insiders who report that Samsung will attempt to flip things around this year – it allegedly plans to produce 3.5 million units of the Galaxy Z Fold8 and 2.5-3 million Galaxy Z Flip8 units. These numbers don’t seem to include the upcoming new model, the tentatively-named Galaxy Wide Fold, which is...
