The DCU Fan Set Project has been a lot of fun to follow so far. In addition to long overdue groups like Speed Force and The Rogues receiving their due, fan-favorites such as Emerald Enemies and the Suicide Squad have also been given a chance to shine.
Today I’m fortunate enough to preview not just one, but two cards for the Suicide Squad team. Although I haven’t had a chance to see any other Suicide Squad cards, I think the following two do a great job of establishing the team’s mechanics while staying true to the nature of the comic books.
But enough talking about the cards, I’ll just show you the goods!
As you see, the powerful effects of the Suicide Squad do not come without a cost. Is drawing three cards worth KOing an 11/11 5-drop? Maybe not, but I’m sure there are some interesting ways to throw some cannon fodder on the board.
I’m definitely looking forward to seeing what else the Suicide Squad has to offer!

If it has been edited then I wish someone would have told me!

Hey, I’m just the set proofreader. Reviewer liaisons are someone else’s job.
