What to do with Red Wolf Fractured Frontier

Quickdraw season is in full swing thanks to Thanos Fractured Frontier. Cards with Quickdraw themselves, Psylocke and Jane Foster, have also landed pretty well. Red Wolf is our first 2-Cost Quickdraw card. The difference between 2 and 3-Cost will be huge for how often you can get that extra Quickdraw effect, which gives Red Wolf a niche just because of that. Here is everything I'm excited to try with Red Wolf Fractured Frontier.

When To Play Him

1. Right When you Draw him. It might seem obvious, but what I really mean here is that you don't have to worry about maximizing the first part of his ability as long as you're getting his second line of text, his Quickdraw. His Quickdraw is good enough that even if he's only getting +3 or +4 Power, you're still getting more than enough value out of this 2-Cost.
2. When your hand is full. That Red Wolf can still have solid value late may be his saving grace. Playing out a 2/7 or 2/8 is powerful fail state for a card like this and there are decks that can pretty reliably hit those numbers on Turn 5 or 6.
3. When you can repeat him. Whether it's with Grandmaster, by bouncing and replaying him, or with the help of new Doctor Octopus card, Red Wolf holds a lot more promise as a 2-Cost scaler you're able to repeat his On Reveal.

Where to Play Him

Chuck him in the current hot thing.

Thanos FF is the deck of the season. Almost anything can fit with this flexible 5-Cost, but Red Wolf should even more so because of the Quickdraw cross-synergy. There is almost no chance the most prevalent place you'll find Red Wolf throughout this week isn't with Thanos FF.

Like Tarantula, Red Wolf has some solid synergy with Skaar since he can help boost your Fisk, Monstro, or Thanos high enough to get that sweet Skaar discount. Red Wolf is a potentially solid, high-upside replacement for Lizard.

You can sculpt your Thanos deck to lean harder into what Red Wolf brings, though it's not certain that this will be an improvement.

This build looks solid and I like the breadth of Clea synergy. Strictly speaking, Doc Ock FF should probably be Adam Warlock, but we gotta find ways to play the new cards.

But can Red Wolf find homes away from Thanos? Below, subscribers will find more Red Wolf concepts, including Bounce, Card Generation, Devil Dino, and more!
